My opinion .

  This share is now way too cheap.Back to the pre- Calunius price and with 70%+ chance of success . Do not miss this boat .One Mammoth rise will occur ,see MET, which was near 500 % in one hour,at one point.
  Before Christmas 2014 . We are all going to be a lot richer ......

    May your Prophet go with you
