No indeed that is a smart way to average down on the price. In clothes perhaps having two sets of the same item is not beneficial - who for example needs two of those pink 1980's montrosities that are only good for ABBA parties, however 2x a cracking LBD is a smart investment.

In shares there is no discussion as 2 shares of company X is always worth twice as much as one share.

That's why I've bought another 15 grands worth of BMN in the last 7 days.

charlieR123 - well to be honest the balance of trades was pretty much positive (more buys than sells) for the entire day so I'm not sure what you mean.

Bella - lol probably Alfa is the best name to use as that is the one everyone else uses.

A musing - If you buy a nice piece of clothing for Christmas and then see it in the New Year sales for less than you paid, is the item any less nice ?

Answer: No - it is the same item and if you liked it at the price that you paid for it then why should you worry just because someone else managed to pay slightly less for it.

Shares are the same - if you were happy to pay higher than the price today for these shares, then why would you be concerned just because somebody managed to pay less later. In fact if you bought shares at more than 40p then you were buying shares when the company did not own Vanchem, did not have the license granted for Mokopane, had not negotiated equity deals and Vanadium supply agreements for Avalon, Redt and Enerox/Cellcube. If it was good enough then then it is even better now.

Daisan - the sizeable trades appear to be in some cases Spreadbet positions that have been forced into a cash call position and so have been forced to sell their shares and others may be rollovers of positions ahead of quadruple witching day later this week.

With respect Bella but the Vaneck holding has barely budged from the 17M level that was achieved on the 31st Oct when Vaneck bought back in after reinserting BMN into their REMX Index.

The occasional small changes in Vaneck holding since then do not appear to have anything to do with the current market dynamics of this SP.

Bella the difference is 158,691 not 1.5Million

Welcome BB1

Nicely summarise BBN but you have perhaps underplayed the positive side of the curious drop in Vanadium prices.

1) This has wrecked the plans of dozens of johnny come lately Vanadium mining projects. Some of the more advanced ones, like AVL and TNG may make it but I have severe doubts about many others, who can, at this stage, remain nameless.

2) One of these is no doubt Stina resources, were trying to ape the integrated Vanadium mines-to-battery story that BMN had been talking about for years. They quite successfully rode the Vanadium wave with their Bisoni Vanadium projects in the US - however they have subsequently failed to float their V23 platform that contains these and then failed to sell it off in September this year. Living on borrowed money had to stop and so they were then forced to sell off the Jewel in the crown - Enerox.

3) Rongke power - after having to completely stop production of electrolyte for the Dalian battery in 2018 because they couldn't afford the electrolyte they have now restarted and tell me that the first 100MW/400MWh will be commission by July 2020.

thanks for the information c arpfisher - do you know Fatbanker - he's a bigger fisher of ca rp too

no ian I was referring to the trade 3 minutes before the markets opened.

wrong again fizzy - looks like the bubbles may have gone to your head. Vanadium prices are significantly higher outside of a small european club dominated by Glencore and furthermore we don't sell Ferrovanadium but Nitrovan which attracts a premium.

Enough with the misinfomation campaign already.

... well we all know what happens after an inversion like this.

JMC - best to stay away from spreadbets if you ask me - like all gambling as soon as you start winning they change the rules. That is advice.

JMC - is that trading in real stocks or simply placing a spreadbet on IG ?

a very early trade this morning

Joint listing will not affect ISA status except in terms of inheritance tax. This is not advice,

might just be interested in this discussion:-

numpty - indeed I think we may need to start thinking of making buildings out of more steel and less concrete. The concrete is much harder to decarbonise as you generate CO2 when converting Calcium carbonate into Calcium Hydroxide, but the steel furnaces can be run on electricity and/or green hydrogen instead of fossil fuels.

Daisydog - I am afraid that despite huge efforts from me to educate you still clearly don't have much idea of what you are talking about - so I suggest that you sell up and go and find a share that you are comfortable to hold.
