Despite its recent market activities and uplisting, the stock has struggled to gain traction, reflected in its 1-month decline of 10.74%.
Bull case
Rua Gold's recent uplisting to the Toronto Stock Exchange and its approval for a secondary listing in New Zealand could improve its visibility and attract more investors, especially given the positive sentiment around its projects.
