Don't you read? Anglo American has entered commercial talks with ARCM over a highly prospective Copper belt when copper is flying and set for future deficits? Is that a start?
I'm sure it covers rotating bonds etc that have end dates and they need to keep the cash rotating, sign that they can and market willing. They then have confidence to spend that money....hopefully on ARCM!
Peter buy and sells as you see them are just stamps placed on trades by the reporting site you are looking at. Trades do not have buy/sell markers from the exchange, they are just transactions at a given price. What you look at, looks at the mid price of the L2 positions and 'assigns' a buy when it is over mid point and a sell when it is below mid point. If L2 is skewed or wide then you can have transactions all occuring one side of the mid point as in today all below the mid point. So they all got called sells by whatever it is you are looking at. When you have all sells like today look at the difference. You don't get 6.802p then a 6.84p. The 6.802p were sells anything above 6.84p was a buy in the real sense. Interestingly ALL transactions are actually a buy and a sell. For you to buy the MM is a seller and vice versa. In SETS traded shares were you pay for DMA access you can actually trade the position of a MM! So you actually buy off PI/retail sellers etc.
SAV will not be supplying that battery factory....GALP won't either.....Cathode and anode suppliers supply cell makers, cell makers supply Battery factories unless the make their own cells in house. They might buy up the output to guarantee supply.
