Parallel to 2p, is 20p the new 2p?5 Mar 2026 08:35
This price decline feels very similar to when the price was 2p, which is hit a few times from Sep 2023 to Nov 2024. Myself and many others here took advantage of that market mispricing then and are doing so now. Back then the market was pricing OMI like it was going to go bust even though Brad and Louis informed the market that a deal had been made and the legal paperwork was still being sorted. The market did not react under after the paperwork had been signed. Being able to buy at 2p when it was obvious that positive news was just around the corner was the most insane market mis-pricing I have ever seen in my life. Now we see it again here at 20p.
There are some differences between now and then: gold is $5k not $2.5k, OMI are progressing exploration on all targets while moving one towards production. There are no other juniors under $100m that have a near-term (2yrs) and economical pathway to production. We will start to see analyst estimates of Apta in preparation for an MRE later this year. I think this is the key that the market is mis-pricing this time. If Apta comes in at 2m oz (just an estimate) but the market has priced OMI stupidly on the Pepas 200k oz only, how will it react on the Apta number? Not to mention other news that could come from Grand Pepas, El Cedro, El Pantano, or even LaVirginceta (although I think that is not a near-term catalyst).
In summary, the market has got it wrong here yet again but failing to see the fairly obvious events of the pathway to Apta MRE - 20p is the new 2p - take advantage.
