Member Info for addicknt

I don't use Twitter. HH was a good contributor to this board and it's a pity he no longer bothers, but he knows no more than the rest of us.

SH, you were attempting to downplay the cost because you hadn't bothered to establish what the percentage actually is and your sarcasm can't disguise your ignorance, petal.

So what? He's merely speculating and has no more info than anyone else. Still, I suppose it allowed you to make yet another asinine comment about Caldwell.

SH, just as an fyi, 9 trillion is approximately 8/9 per cent of global gdp. It is not an insignificant number as you suggest.

Q, how does your dividend strategy apply to solg? None have been paid.

I've been reluctant to buy into the manipulation argument, but we know the question has been raised by the company. Perhaps in this instance there's something to it?

If I heard him correctly, he unwittingly highlighted an anomaly in Glencore's strategy. He stated they have said they are unwilling to invest in copper at current prices, but that they know it will increase in value. If this is actually the case surely they'd be investing now? Why wait for values to move up? Seems slightly odd thinking, particularly as it relates to new and as yet undeveloped discoveries. I'd have thought now is exactly the right time to buy.

Eloro, just as well your satisfaction is irrelevant, isn't it.

Mister, he says it at around 45 minutes into the interview the link to which is provided below by DBW.

'Don't get carried away'! This from the person who told us the cartels would take over Cascabel and that the country was in a civil war. You've over-exaggerated every single recent event, so it's hardly me who's getting carried away.

Anyway, as I said earlier, it's good you're feeling a bit happier with life.

'Voiced my doubts'...ha! That's the understatement of the year.

Eloro, how many times have you ridiculed people for saying something's going on in the background?

It's good to see you feeling more positive.

'84, thanks. I thought GGP was, but I may be wrong. I'm sure someone on here will know.

BBG, they have about 250,000 employees. Do you have someone in mind?

I've also just looked at my only other speculative mining share, KOD, and it's the same thing - no ATs.

Just having a look at two other popular stocks, GGP and HE1, and note that not a single AT appears on the trades list. I wonder why we are the exact opposite?

I forgot to add that the headline for the Telegraph article is; 'Global copper race sparked Anglo American bid'.

The Telegraph business section has a very good analysis of the BHP/AAL bid and the perceived coming boom for copper. It argues, convincingly, that the growing M&A activity is being driven entirely by copper and the rush for miners to get their hands on more of the stuff.

If you're in need of cheering up, and one or two people on here most certainly are, this article should do the trick.

Hang on! This can't possibly be right! We've been told no one wants anything to do with Ecuador.

'I'm off, my sanity level has been tested once to(sic) often'.

Philosophical question: Is it possible to test something which doesn't exist?

AAL rejects the offer - there's a surprise.

Their RNS focusses on copper and despite the fact it only represents 30% of their production, they very clearly identify it as the main plank of their defence.
