WordPress Stats. have been getting better & better – I’m impressed! Thought it would be fun to share some random info. on my Wexboy readership:
– Smallest: British Virgin Islands. OK, shared with 13 other countries. Aren’t all the investment co/hedge fund managers in BVI? Surely more than a few would have come across my blog by now? What? Oh, you’re really in London (or NY) – the taxes are just dandy, but you don’t like the restaurants in BVI – ah, I see!
– Most Politically Correct: Falkland Islands – yes, it’s also labeled as Malvinas! Yes, this was WordPress’ idea.
– Bravest: China. Yes, despite being banned (as a tool of the capitalist dogs..?!), a few brave souls managed to make it through/around the firewalls just to read Wexboy..!
– Grand Total: 91 countries per the latest count.
– North Korea vs. South Korea: South Korea wins, of course! North Korea really is completely dark (as are Laos & Burma).
– Japan vs. South Korea: C’mon RoK, I have twice as many Japanese readers right now! My Korean may still be pretty bad, but it’s far better than my Japanese.
– Poorest Show: Tanzania… Really? Did you not see my blogs on tanzanite and Richland Resources (RLD:LN)?!
– Greece vs. Turkey: Despite the rioting on the street, Greek readership is still far higher than that of Turkey…even if I give Cyprus to the Turks!
– Ukraine vs. Russia: Ukraine trounces Russia. My enthusiasm for Avangardco (AVGR:LI) surely helped here.
– Darkest Continent: Africa. Er, um, that wasn’t a joke… Central Asia‘s almost completely missing, also – but I’m more surprised to see large parts of South & Central America still missing.
– PIIGS: Ireland has the largest readership (among the PIIGS). OK, nobody act surprised… Then we have Spain, Italy, Portugal and last we have Greece. Anybody attach any significance to this particular order..?!
– Most Surprising: Maybe Singapore making it into the Top 10?
And here’s the Top 15 in all its glory – complete with flags, and % of total Wexboy readership:
 United Kingdom |
44% |
 Ireland |
23% |
 United States |
12% |
 Germany |

 Netherlands |

Hi Wexboy,I checket RLD on Barchart and it is a strong sell,Barchart is pretty accurate,check for yourself and comment please I appreciate your opinion.Cornelis
That doesn’t surprise me really – I’m sure if you plugged in most other junior miners right now, they would probably show the same rating.
I do use technical analysis to support my investing (which is based on fundamentals, of course), and for such a small stock Richland’s been a surprising technical stock (I’ve written abt RLD’s technicals before).
Considering recent price action, I’d agree RLD might drop a little further, but I’d expect it to bottom out around GBP 8p…and the upside here is a lot larger – on balance, I like that asymmetry.
Hi Wexboy,
Thanks for you reaction about the Tanzanian Miner,I do have a keen interest
in African mining mainly West Africa I use to work in Ghana.
I would like to share with you a mining firm in Ghana,Abzu Gold ( ABS.V.
Have a look and give you opinion about this miner.
Check out a report by Ubica Research!
West Africa has great oppertunities Check this one I had it on my watch list but did not act till it was to late Greenhouse Gold Res date 28 june 2011 at 0,0532 532,=cad is now 610.000,= cad ??? I mean to say they are there but need to be found.
Look forward sharing information you if you like the idea.
Best regards Cornelis
Dear Wexboy,I am new here and I find it aall your articles very interested,at the moment I do not have any local stock to share.I like West Africa mining stock’s

Thanks cornelis! Perhaps you want to look East? Richland Resources (RLD:LN) is getting hit like all the junior miners, but is a v cheap/promising stock!
