Aurelian Shareholder Revolt Hits 580,000 Page Views, Expands To YouTube

Posted by AGORACOM at 8:01 AM on Tuesday, August 12th, 2008

The Web 2.0 Aurelian Resources shareholder revolt against a “friendly” takeover bid by Kinross Gold has generated more than 580,000 page views over the past 30 days on the company’s HUB on AGORACOM.

Shareholders, led by these 6 HUB Leaders, have used the HUB to amalgamate, discuss and execute a strategy to vote down the bid, including submitting thousands of e-mail messages, telephone calls and letters to management, directors, media, analysts, bloggers, securities regulators and even other potential suitors.

The campaign has been a massive success and perhaps the best example of Web 2.0 Canadian shareholder activism with coverage from the likes of The Financial Post, Calgary Herald and Montreal Gazette.

Now, in response to this piece of advice from yours truly, Aurelian shareholders have taken their message to YouTube. A shareholder by the name of Bob and better known as HUB Leader Heloboy2005, posted what I can only describe as a fantastic 9-minute video statement on behalf of the activist group.

As further evidence this revolt is far beyond a mere fringe group of investors, the video has been viewed 728 times in less than 2 days. Add that to the 580,000 + page views on the Aurelian HUB over the past 30 days and you have a serious group of motivated investors.

The video first outlines all shareholder concerns relating to the deal, including a strong argument for its weak valuation. More importantly, however, it calls out management and the board for what appears to be major potential improprieties, including the granting of more than 2.4 million options to board members only 5 days before JV discussions with Kinross began.

Bob ends the video by challenging President and CEO, Patrick Anderson, to visit the Aurelian HUB on AGORACOM and answer a list of more than 22 questions compiled and posted by the entire group of shareholders.

Will he take up the challenge? There is no doubt in my mind that he now needs to. He doesn’t have to do it on AGORACOM but he definitely needs to address these concerns via a statement of some kind.

In the meantime Mr. Anderson, if you haven’t seen the video, enjoy the following:

Regards,
George

Gold/Silver/Copper Price Drop Is Actually VERY Good For Small-Cap Stocks

Posted by AGORACOM at 8:42 PM on Monday, August 11th, 2008

Gold got whacked today and finished at $US 820/oz, its lowest point of the year. I actually think know this is a good thing for small-cap gold stocks. Why? Gold’s move above $1,000 was largely based on a US economic catastrophe caused by one or a combination of the following:

  • Banking Failures
  • Real Estate Crash
  • Inflation
  • Stock Market Crash
  • The Village People Reuniting (Would Have Taken Markets Back To 1978 Levels…aaaaaah!)

Any one of these events would have been good for gold prices but terrible for stocks of junior gold companies. After all, if the market is crashing south of the border, would you be buying blue-chip stocks, let alone juniors? The answer is no.

Thus, $1,500 gold and a crushed stock market is in very few people’s best interest. If you need any further proof of this, just take a look at the carnage in the junior metals sector over the past 6 months. Sky-high commodity prices were simply no match against the threat of a possible market collapse.

On the other hand, today’s drop in gold was based on renewed confidence in the US markets over the past several days. The US still has a boatload of problems to deal with and any one of them could still turn ugly – but for now people are feeling as if the US can navigate the rough seas without sinking.

CONCLUSION:

At the end of the day, investors in gold/silver/copper and other precious metal stocks are better off with prices at $750/$14.50/$3.50 and a stable US stock market. This provides the markets with the best of both worlds – economic commodity prices and panic free stock markets.

Spread the word…happy days are coming back to the junior metals markets.

Regards,
George

AGORACOM Rhino Update

On August 11th we posted a story titled, “SCAM ALERT: Our E-Mail List Is Not For Sale!! So Why Does This Guy Say He Has It??”

We would like to provide you with the following update:

Over the last week, Rhino Marketing Inc. has been very forthright in dealing with us and has confirmed they are not in possession of an “AGORACOM Investor Email List”. As a result, they have removed all content pertaining to the matter from their website.

We appreciate Rhino taking the time to address this issue and will continue our investigation to ensure we identify the list brokers who are ultimately responsible for providing Rhino with this false information.

Regards,
Mitch Fanning
Director of Marketing
