Any one know the reason there far,far, less flights over Christmas Eve and day.
Think out of the box.
Its simple , Santa needs all the airspace. After all no one wants dead reindeer falling from the sky.,do they.
hi Mr Bond,
Also very fair comments Mr Bond.
Take care!
Tibbs
It takes a long time to repair confidence after the past vandelism at Centamin.
This CEO is gradually moving ,and planning the repairs, he may be getting 2 m a year ,yes ,but to take on the job and responsibility takes character, All I say is give a fair chance and time.
The vandelism was more than painting walls it took them years ,it often takes longer to repair.
Yes at times I am crotchety,I suspect not the only one of LTHs here ,so hardlly surprising I get ****ed off when I read negative not just you but traders eho get themselves unexpectedly trapped here and rant on.
When really they got themslves in the situation. Then thankfully p***s off.
Anyway enough of that, Don have a good break till after New Year.
Dont let your guard down with the virus.
My nephew this morning tested himself possitive, after 3 tests per day when at work, but feels OK.
Had a plumber in yesterday, possitive today.Take care all.
Agreed Robbie!
Hi Cowichan,
Mr Bond has also contributed a great deal to the forum and enlightened some of us about many aspects the mining industry.
I'm sure we all post something at sometime that someone finds annoying, certainly I'm as guilty as anyone else, although that's all part of freedom of opinion and free and open debate amongst friends and other forum members.
I remain in no doubt that the majority of long term members are completely justified in any criticism the past behaviour of the previous management which has left the share price in the bargain bucket shop for yet another festive season!
It's understandable that the Centamin BOD would prefer to move on, they are no doubt very much aware, hopefully embarrassed that they failed to ensure proper responsible and fit for purpose governance of Sukari from their comfy board room seats in Jersey.
How many times in the past did Pardey promise that "lessons had been learned! after yet another Sukari balls up had necessitated an RNS warning that the promised guidance wouldn't be achieved, I've lost count!
But it is apparent now that despite those warning signs and the published articles warning that all was'nt as well as claimed at Sukari the BOD sat on their hands when they should have kicked ar(ses down the road and brought in new competent management,
In many respects long term share holders were treated like mushrooms "kept in the dark" whilst their trust was taken for granted and even betrayed!
I appreciate in many respects this is going over old events, but that said all the more reason to remind share holders that behaving like mushrooms has done them no favours in the past.quite the contrary!
That said I feel confident that Martin Horgan is determined to put things right and appreciates that although you offer constructive criticism at time's, you also promote many of the positive aspect's about Centamin that otherwise some share holders wouldn't be aware of.
Lets hope for some real tangible results rather than just promises in 2022!
Happy Christmas to you and your family!
Tibbs
Cowichan,
Just say it as it is.
Mr Hogan is being paid £2million plus a year tax free and owns 45,000 shares. He`s a big boy and needs to know how shareholders feel.
Happy Christmas and a very happy new year to you Market!
So glad that you popped in this morning!
Hope you manage to get a few tot's during the festive celebrations!
Keep well!
Best Wishes
Tibbs
Good xmas to all and a happy prosperous New Year
Merry Christmas one and all , allies and adversaries alike , and I wish you all a happy and (hopefully ) prosperous new year
Cheers !
Sorry for the typo should read as 2022
I enjoy your posts Cowichan, very informative and it is good to see someone with the knowledge and determination to challenge the status quo. Please keep up the good work in 20222. No need to take MrBonds comemnts too much to heart.
Now they can go buy nigh on a full 1% in the new year before they need to disclose to the market again.
I was just thinking about how utterly annoying MrBond's criticisms of my posts are to read
and then I thought about how utterly annoying my criticisms of Centamin's management must be for them to read - especially Mr Horgan (assuming he/they/ir read any of my posts!)
and I thought, damn, I should be more positive in my posts - to find a balance in 2022
thanks for the lesson MrBond - Merry Christmas you crotchety old man ;-)
Merry Christmas to one and all here. Most certainly the most mannered and convivial forum on the net. Diverse opinions of course but all voiced in unabusive tones Many many thanks to all.
Keep safe and well
Regards
Bob
SteveJones999,
Yes on that latest little prop trade/ fiddle about. I think their average is probably over a pound.
It seems to me that they actually set the price direction with a small proportion of their holding. Selling at 105 to 115 buying back in the 90s or in this case below.
Happy Christmas all holders, keep away from the Omicron, seems everyone around here in SW London already has it.
Thank you MrT .
I am afraid Christmasses were never the same for me after reaching 21.
They told me Santa was not real. ;-(
The Very Best too one and all.
HI Rebess
Merry Christmas to you and also one and all!
Thank you and also to all our forum friends!!
Merry Xmas to one and all.
Thank you for all your contributions.
Every good wish for 2022.
Just added some more CEY before Xmas. Fingers crossed.
Hi Mr Bond,
Must admit that due to my limited understanding of open my mining techniques I underestimated the consequences of the discovery of the crack in the open pit wall, after reading comments from other former mining professionals that he safety systems in place had worked as they should, then it would be a case of a statement from the new CEO about what action was being taken and the share price would remain around £1.60-£1.70 until the next quarters announcement that things were back to normal.
Even allowing for the past mishaps, missed targets and erratic performance of the previous management I certainly didn't envisage the announcement that open pit waste clearance had been neglected to such an extent that Sukari would need the extensive and costly strip back that is now in progress to restore Sukari production to cost effective and sustainable levels.
I am as surprised,disappointed, even appalled, not sure which is the right wording to describe my feeling about the BOD in Jersey claim to have been unaware of the build up of uncleared waste at Sukari, but then there were some analyst's from big brokerages that visited Sukari, shouldn't they have noticed the failure to clear waste?
So now we feel the pain and have to be patient yet again whilst most of those that caused the mess have taken their rewards
That said and from personal experience I know Martin Horgan is much more aware of and does take investors views seriously, I hope I'm not wrong , but I feel pretty confident that we have the right CEO now who is well aware of the past ,but sees the task in hand to turn Centamin around as the priority, lets hope it doesn't take too long and the recovery is as permanent as it can be in gold mining.
Happy Christmas to you and your family
Really like this board and the variety of views on it which makes it a great board.
So before I forget - All the best for 2022!
But can’t be bothered to look back at this year’s buys and sells from them to view yearly- although I would suspect a loss as hard to trade and make a profit on a share that has dropped ~35% YTD.
Black rock did well- quick look (and I mean quick) suggests they sold at around 97 and bought back in at around 87
