Methodology: Range is calculated using 30-day realized volatility via geometric Brownian motion (log-normal model). 68% band = ±1σ, 95% band = ±2σ. This is a statistical model, not a prediction. Past volatility does not guarantee future results. Not financial advice.

Bull case

Despite the recent downturn, Nexus Gold Corp has potential for recovery. If its upcoming projects yield positive results or if gold prices rise significantly, the company could bounce back.

Bear case

The substantial drop in stock price may signal deeper issues within the company or reflect negative market sentiment. Without solid news or performance improvements, further declines could be on the horizon.
