SP....17 Dec 2018 17:32
I think the sp is still tanking because the Black Rock sell still hasn`t been soaked up. They stated > 5% is where it leaves them in the TR1, but it didn`t give exact numbers. We know 5% would be c6.5m, so the figure is somewhere north of that. If they have to notify when their holding goes below 3% then the whole sell would be between c6.5m and c9.2m.......and so far the biggest lump thats been put through looks to have been 4.5m.
That would explain why the shares are being bought at an ever decreasing price but having no effect!
The exact same thing happened recently over on Condor Gold, until the BOD stepped in and filled their boots nicely at the all time low price. To be fair it did make the share price bounce by about 40% currently, because shortly after their buys they issued a positive RNS re additional licences being awarded!
All forgotten about now the price is in a rising trend.
There will be a conclusion to the price fall, in whatever form, hence the, dare I say.... `smug` look on the CEO Peter Secker`s face in the interview. He knows whats happening behind the scenes, and until the `entire` Black Rock sale is completely in new hands then its just going to be a case of `hold your nose` or `look away` for the time being. If something else is also going on, he`ll know about that too.
There`s not much value in PI`s selling now because once this ugly stage of proceedings is out of the way the price will most likely rebound like an elastic band, and they`d be gutted to be caught out by that. The Company is worth more than £30m, and they`ve been in discussions for some time on how to fund the development stage.
The battery grade Lithium market is strong, and Sonora is too far down the road as a proven great asset to let it all fall through the fingers now, and the Black Rock decision to sell is no more than a big holdings and Investment house making a relatively small decision for reasons of there own, they`re hardly likely to have assessed that the EV market is a dead duck, specially considering ongoing news that diesel vehicle sales are continuing to fall.
I think this has been planned for a while, and Citigroup have been bought in to pick up the batten just at the right time. The price fall is like a disobedient firework fizzling itself out on the floor somewhere, and Citigroup have been assembled to lead the proper firework display starting in the new year!
How convenient that most people have Xmas and Brexit in the forefront of their minds, a good time to shuffle through some less than festive plans.
Merry Brexmas, and a Bacanora New Year!
