You're the one that started calling people names, Pop. As usual.
Touched a nerve there then, Sniffer, did I not? Get back to your shorter desk, quick. Or are your fingers still burnt for keyboarding?
Lots of people do both - invest for the long term and trade in the short/mid term. To think someone must be one or the other is nonsense.
If it wasn't for the traders the SP of these miners would not have exhibited the massive price pumps seen earlier this year. Furthermore, traders provide additional liquidity/volume (beneficial for Nasdaq Global Select requirements); help set a floor in the price; and some assist with mindless ramping across social media platforms. So sod off yourself.
Others have put more meat on the bones of my statement, so will leave it there.
Pops: "I bought here in 2018 at 7p with hope for down the road."
Well done. That is incredible. It shows patience. It's difficult to reproduce that performance though. Not even Warren Buffett has been able to do that consistently. I could list >100 companies where I've watched people invest for the 'long-term' into micro-cap companies, only to lose all their money. 'Hope' is not an investment style.
Everybody is free to choose their own investment style and to add liquidity into the market. I do not even mind the shorters, if it wasn't for their devious de-ramping. Personally, I occasionally go short the index myself...
I never said anything like that,FFS. Two sides of the same coin is my point. Investors lth rarely take the coinout of their pockets to flip. Day traders flip daily. LTH tends to be more profitable. Neither guarantee anything.
Indeed CaneToad, patience is not always rewarded. and that means LTHs don't always get what they perceive they deserve. GKP is a prime example of that. Some stocks get diluted multiple times to death
600 thank yous!
"Be good to watch the stupidity of the day traders versus the measured INVESTORS"
What nonsense. Everybody is invested here for 1 reason. To sell higher than they bought. The only difference is the time frame and volatility.
It's possible to both make or lose money in both short and long time frames.
I know some LTHs who lose money and some who make 8-10% a year, while I also know some traders who lose money (most of them), while I also know some that consistently make >100% annualised returns on big portfolios. There is absolutely no guarantee that a LTH will make money.
Hopegeeed what a nasty reply, ****. I bought here in 2018 at 7p with hope for down the road. Top sliced at 340p and still hold over half a million shares. I've also been known to whinge when stumbling over MMs scratching about in the gutters and verges. Now hoping to do even better here, before long. Allied with hundreds, even millions of canny Americans. So sod off miserable wretch.
There are never guarantees in investing but ARB's fundamentals, and pricing versus growth potential are very substantial. Obviously that's what investors look for and why we're all here.
Insane statement. There is no guarantee of wealth down the road.
massive volume in early trading
@Pops, "Be good to watch the stupidity of the day traders versus the measured INVESTORS .The latter seeking wealth down the road not in the rubbish dumped on the verges." WHAT AN ABSOLUTE BLINDER OF A POST, loved it!! Take care and all the best, 600
