The silence gotta end soon
Small caps and many miners going great guns today. Many at 12 months highs.
The reason we are near multi year lows is due to Scott and Bob's 'silence'.
So management are holding us back right now in a very very favourable market. So using logic... one would deduce from that, Bob and Scott can't be doing it on purpose... as even the worst management teams out there could have SOLG dancing again in this current market atmosphere... so the logic is... something very rewarding is being concluded.
I hope that you are right Fort. History here is fickled. We weren't expected to be here after 2023, yet here we are. It now looks as if we will be here for the 2024 agm. We are going to be in for one big disappointment if you are wrong and history repeats itself here. I have no choice but to now hope that Bob will hit a home run because left to himself, I have no doubt that Scott will drop the ball.
Eloro,
Getting a sale done on a Tier1 asset that requires alot of derisking still is no easy feat. I'll acknowledge that. Market backdrop a year ago was not much fun for miners... I'll acknowledge that. But today, times are very different ... in fact the last 4 months have been trnasformational for the sector and that's being witnessed in many share prices. Many have doubled or risen by 50% and that's not just the small caps.. that's the big multi billion plays too.
So in a nut shell, if Bob and co can't get a deal done this year pre AGM... then there's no way shareholders can vote them in for another term. No logic in that at all. This year should be a zinch for getting asset deals done. It should be a walk in the park for seasoned players like Bob.
So if he can't get it done this year, it's time for him to step aside and let someone else take the reigns... like EBAY. They'd get an auction done in 7 days and yes... there would be bidders.
Joking aside... all it really needs is a big to be tabled and the rest will follow. As seen by BHP's recent low ball bid on Anglo. Talk is Glencore are up next to pitch their best offer. Rio keeping powerdry for now. Lets see how that unfolds.
Has anyone given any thought as to its possible, there is complete silence, simply because there is nothing happening, therfore there's nothing to say. the company is in mothballs,
I personally think it's good there saying nothing.
Every time adikts mate opens his mouth, we drop 20%.
And rk.
You will never leave this board, where else would you spin your sh**te.
Wallowing, hoping something will turn up.
Fort, you keep spouting tier 1.
Solg have stated on several occasions that tier 1 is subjective.
I feel sure if majors took the same view as to tier1 we would have been long sold.
What happened to the 12 majors we were told were sniffing round years ago.
What happened to the 2 or 3 majors sniffing round after the opening of the data room.
It's not tier 1 if you can't get it out of the ground.
Fine words from a ceo desperate to sell, may fool you, adikt, bbg, and the likes of dbw.
But it appears clearly not those who matter.
I thought you were leaving/had left NAL, clearly you're still very interested here which is great news...
Your views here are a refreshing antidote to the constant deramping by the likes of BBg and RK, heaven forbid that they are not right long term otherwise most of us here are going to be stinking rich 😂
ONWARDS & UPWARDS!!!
Cheers Fort, I agree. Flogging a tier 1 isn't an easy undertaking, made even more challenging by Ecuador suddenly getting bad press when they were previously known for being a refuge for those evading Uncle Sam.
Even ARS has perked up, no cross-ramp. I don't currently hold ARS. Just to illustrate how the unloved shares are suddenly perking up while we are looking like the ugly sister who no one wants to marry. In Bob we trust!
I have NEVER deramped on here...what planet are you on?
Nobody is more constructively bullish...
RK, oh dear! I fear Novice's sarcasm flew right over your head.
🤣🤣🤣You couldn't make it up Add, majority of these BB are now pure tripe infiltrated by professional scammers looking to make lots over many little pump and dumps, bored guys WFM with much time on their hands and covert LSE stooges here to simply generate posts which as we know generates revenue and unfortunately we are not immune.
55p Someday Soon!!!
I think he’s too busy on the thirteenth fairway in his chequered golf pants and plus fours bragging about the size of his endowment policy to realise it was sarcastic
Adikt and novice, dream team in the making.
Love this bit of your post novice.
"You couldn't make it up Add, majority of these BB are now pure tripe"
You telling ad, the BB is tripe,
Don't think I've read a funnier post..
What with ads posting history when losing an argument, and your schoolboy dad jokes.
Never a truer sentence has ever been posted.
No argument NAL … from one boolsheeter to another 😉
Let's hope you breakeven at 10 soon sunshine
