The market reacted with a +11.11% move over the following 24 hours, indicating investor interest in the new leadership’s technical and exploration background.

A strong positive reaction aligns with the prior +11.11% move seen after this CEO appointment, suggesting investors rewarded the addition of technical and exploration expertise. However, shares had been trading below the 200-day MA and roughly 46% under the 52-week high, so any sharp rally occurred from a depressed base.
