I know we have discussed this company before (NML), it looks like a great long term story and I realize it's more of a macro story(we require China picking up etc...). Any thoughts today as the shares have closed below $1? Thanks.
Q: Hey guys. I am not familiar at all with Jovian Capital and probably wont buy it but the curiosity is killing me. They recently announced a special $3 a share dividend but the shareprice has only jumped 70 cents. Is there something I am missing? I noticed in May they also paid a special $4 dividend that didn't really move the stock either. Your insights are appreciated.

Q: Peter,
I'd like your opinion on this "new generation" of dividend paying oil juniors.
