Geologists digging in the North East of Nevada have recently turned up this most unusual archaeological find - it appears to be an ancient document that some now refer to as 'the lost Minor Miner interview scripts'.

The handwriting is indistinct but it appears to translate as the following:

(Setting):- interviewer and client are to sit inches apart on either side of infinitely long table that runs directly through the centre of a midwest city (Kansas City or Houston will do). After a brief but embarrassingly long pause the interviewer may start.

Interviewer: So John can you tell me read from script all about the recent developments in wave hand the (insert commodity) market turn page over.

Client: Yes Bob thank you very much for asking that entirely unexpected and unprepared-for question which I will now answer completely spontaneously and without undue hesitation.

yada yada [the record is indistinct at this point] ... but it seems to say 'client talks for a bit'

Interviewer: Thanks for that John skip to next question so when did you first learn of the spoken with emphasis remarkable deposits at your [insert name of mine] deposit ?

Client: Well Bob that's a remarkably insightful question which I would like to take very little time to answer except to say that our deposits are world class and of course will make America great again.

[again the client may talk for a bit or the camera may cut to the interviewer nodding, but not nodding off.]

Interviewer: thank you for that very emphasis interesting point raise eyebrow which of course will allow our viewers to understand why on earth they should invest their hard won tax paying dollars in the (insert name of mine) world class deposit. Can I have my check please ?

Well if we leave the European Union then everything that is imported would have to be subject to 20% VAT at minimum. Further duties could be applied but if they were then they could be challenged by, for example the World Trade Organisation court.

No the European Court of Justice which is different to the European Parliament or the European Commission.

The UK did not interpret the taxation rules consistently and this is what the court ruled upon, that is what courts do. If you want to change the rules then you would need to pass legislation in the Parliament.

It's ok Setcentric we have it already down as a Buy.

That's an excess of Buys today of more than 200K

Biganuf - it was fairly clear 3 days ago that there was going to be significant changes of the Vaneck holding in BMN as since the 17th of June the Vaneck BMN holding was more than 5% underweight compared with the MVIS index. In fact you can trace back and identify almost all of the trades that correspond with Vaneck sells. eg 1.11M on 17th June, 279,008 on 18th June (restated on the 19th), plus 2x500K reported live on the day, I could go on...

Exactly Sanchez. We'll see if there is any connection between TPEP and Vaneck now.

All this of course is a sideshow - a ha'penny coconut shy compared to the Big Top with Fortune as ringmaster.

A reminder - in the 12 years that the Vaneck REMX ETF has been running it has an overall performance of -72%

If investing was simply as easy as picking which ETF you like the sound of the name of then everyone could do it. The simple fact is that investing (productively) IS more difficult than that, and you need to understand the companies that you are placing your funds, and faith, in.

LinkedDreams it may well do - the MVIS index no longer shows BMN as listed and so Vaneck will probably have sold another 5M yesterday, yet to be reported.

Overall I think it is a positive development - whilst we might praise the farsightedness and fiscal prudence of anyone who invests in BMN it does expose one to the ebbs and flows in that investor's thinking. In the case of Vaneck, this is primarily US-China politics and whether the baby trump had a good night sleep or not. Just about the most unpredictable thing going right now, Middle East Drone delivery services excepted.

Leafie, nonsense, UK Taxation is the responsibility of the UK government

Initially sounds like an annoying computer generated voice but give it time and this video will grow on you.

Not yet kev

Daisan - it's fairly clear now that those trades on friday are simply rollovers of short positions.

LIION - the ability to issue something like 25% more shares has been made available most years, purely to provide the option to the BoD should it ever need to be exercised. Resolution 8 covers the ability to buy back shares.

They just turned up gambit - more evidence for the FCA investigation.

pb940 - do you need to be logged in to see the trade data there ?

predicts VRFB market of $1.1 Billion by 2025 - I think it may be somewhat higher than this once VRFB's actually start getting rolled out at scale and utilities start to see the benefits whilst Li-ion battery systems are having to be retired.

I wonder who is reading this article now ... who in Scandinavia might be interested in such a green investment as BMN ?

of course this showed similar very large end of day trades to those observed on Friday. There the agreement between those trades was implicit, as explained in the article, time will tell if the same sort of agreement can be found in the end day trades observed on Friday (or subsequently reported today/tomorrow)

someone, how long before we may conclude the deal for Vanchem ?
