What might put you off buying PAAS is the belief that the silver market is currently going up shit creek without a paddle, but if you believe that you're probably a technical analyst and it's beyond the ability of this humble corner of cyberspace to help you. So overall it's probably a pity your author won't ever buy the stock, what with its cruddy record on environment, health & safety and social issues in Peru. Money isn't everything, y'see. DYODD
