• Neutral Sentiment: Trading volume surged to ~10.08M vs. an average of ~3.17M, indicating heightened attention and volatility; technicals show the stock trading near its 50‑day (C$0.34) and 200‑day (C$0.32) moving averages and inside a one‑year range of C$0.23–C$0.67.
• Negative Sentiment: Despite the prior jump, the stock has decreased today amid very heavy turnover — this pattern suggests profit‑taking, short‑term reversal risk, and limited underlying fundamental change. Fundamentals remain thin: small market cap (~C$115M), negative earnings (reported P/E -33), a current ratio below 1 (0.78) and some leverage (debt/equity ~0.54), which increase downside risk if momentum fades.
