The counter argument is that he’s looking after the LTHs and not letting them get bounced around wondering when results are gonna drop. I should imagine most LTHs are grabbing the popcorn ready for Monday. Let’s go!

Haha actually warranted on this occasion badger!

What a panic is being whipped up here. Dow jones being blasted higher on exuberance when in truth, the risk to the bond market has just climbed significantly.

China is a major US debt holder. They could cause absolute carnage and since they are now being singled out for higher tariffs, what’s stopping them pulling the trigger and smashing it all to bits?

“However, Shaun Day is an expert at PR, and I've no doubt he'll be well aware when to do so, probably when the markets have at least settled a bit more than they are now.”

I’d suggest it’s Shaun’s job to release the information as and when it is ready and to let the market decide. End of the day, we are in perhaps one of the only sectors that’s likely to see potentially huge growth, some of the bigger miners are moving up, we need to convince the market we are producing and making big bucks ASAP.

There’s no use whatsoever trying to time an RNS in such uncertain times. Things could get a lot worse for all we know, but gold will only steam ahead in such circumstances and those results could be the catalyst that’s needed to decouple us from the general market malaise.

Keep a close eye on the bond market.

The basis trade black swan could be rearing its head.

How many traders are being obliterated right now, how many margin calls are there? How much leverage?

Could be derivatives mk2. When will the market ever learn.

Many (myself included) are guilty of using the USD POG price as the key measure. Take a look at the gold price action in AUD, it’s really quite different, especially if you look at the attempted dollar smash on gold yesterday, the reaction in AUD was much more muted.

In fact, at the minute, the AUD price enjoys about a $30oz bump based on current exchange rates.

Just worth bearing in mind as every little helps!

I don’t think the markets will force him out, not anytime soon. Trump’s ambitions and plans, and the team, particularly S Bessent, are going to want to see this through. What they envisage long term for the US goes way beyond a few calamitous trading sessions. I’m not saying I agree with it, but it’s useful to understand that the US is drowning in debt and simply calling time on tariffs now is not going to solve their problems. A full reset, in the eyes of the trump team, is the only solution.

Besides, it reaches a point where the U Turn is no less damaging than seeing it through. Either way confidence in the markets is shot to bits now.

Multi, it won’t matter.

Because the long game here is clear: the markets become a casino at the whim of one very powerful man who happens to change his mind almost daily.

That’s not the sort of stable environment that promotes investment and growth.

Whatever trump does now the markets, in the short term at least, are cooked.

Gold holding up beautifully.

Look around you. It’s a bloodbath out there.

Everything is getting smashed. Panic means that even good stocks get caught in the churn, eg winning positions sold out of to cover losses etc. I think that’s why gold is bouncing around as it is.

If allowed to persist for a few weeks, it’ll feed on itself and grind the major indices lower. I think I know where money might be looking to move into for some safety. Gold is performing remarkably well and establishing firm support above the $3k level. Anything above $2800 and we are laughing all the way to the bank.

Oh and oil is getting smacked which is a boon to our overheads.

Think this is becoming one of those ‘it was so obvious at the time’ type of investments.

Shaun knows his trade inside out, back to front, he recognises (and makes a lot of time for) the investor base. He also clearly sees the ASX as a catalyst but it’s equally obvious he knows that needs to be in sync with steady and positive newsflow.

Big investment in existing projects

Clear roadmap to Hav feasibility

Constantly referring to costs, optionality and resilience of the business

Very little mention (in fact I think this is referred to only once across both interviews) of gold’s current rip (suggests we are onto a winner even if gold price were to significantly weaken)

I think he sees A LOT more in Hav than the current resource estimates suggest.

I’m stupidly overweight in this stock but watching this man in full flow makes holding this stock a hell of a lot easier.

You’re listening to a man who is lazer focused on the task ahead.

I think he recognises that ASX will be a real ‘moment’ for greatland, so I expect some real positive momentum in the run up to, and immediately around, the listing. I think he wants to make a splash…

Wiltshire lots of things about investing that ain’t pretty. Where’s there’s money to be made there’s some pretty crazy lows people will stoop to.

Eg the moronic FUDsters popping up trying to make a quick buck saying this is going to 0 and likewise morons saying they’ll double up if they get some likes FFS. This is all part of the landscape of investing now.

But the truth is, instis and pension funds still rule the game. If GGP is the real deal the cream will rise to the top based on pure fundamentals, no need for conspiracies or silly tricks to pump it up.

That’s where I think/hope we will get to with a few solid quarterlies under our belt.

Who on earth is selling when gold is @ $3110? I don’t see a pull back. Quite the opposite.

I agree Taverham.

I’ve had a few shares here since 2021. Nothing to write home about really. I didn’t catch the bottom in terms of the deal, I needed more information. But as soon as I heard Shaun talk about how much ore was at surface I started piling in here.

My portfolio contains just this stock now. GGP or bust!

Great to hear of people getting back in the black. Stock picking is fraught with danger and I’ve learned a few hard lessons along the way.

Given Friday’s rise we may well get a few traders sowing seeds on the chat with ‘RNS tomorrow’ type dross, all designed to foster impatience and hand wringing. I think as LTHs it’s our job to remember the timelines Shaun has set out and to just sit on hands.

Really looking forward to the quarterlies whenever they come out. All I’m good time.

As I said this morning, there was no arguing with the volumes. It was bound to break one way or another.

Lots to look forward to in the next few weeks!

Cleared 50 million already, it’s not even midday. Cant see it staying in too tight a range like this if ht volume persists.

The dual train plant, the WDD, all that ore at surface and now a stellar gold price. The deal will pay for itself many times over. Since the deal was agreed the gold greatland owns in the ground has increased in value by roughly $8billion USD!! Shaun you beauty!

MH, if the results are as good as we think they might/could be, and we start to see a genuine rotation into the PM sector, combined with updated MREs and the ASX listing and gold’s current rip, those broker targets will be academic and in the rear view window in very short order IMO.

I think it’s important to keep in mind that the mining sector is showing the market doesn’t buy gold’s bull run and sees it as a bubble.

But each day that gold holds above that $3k mark and the trickle into mining could become a flood, especially for those smaller, agile miners that can keep a lid on costs and ramp up production in short order. Now I wonder which company fits that sort of profile…
