Some 600 000 delayed trades showing as buys after 16.30. If correctly attributed does seem to confirm that this has been achieved by the market makers playing along doesn't it.

Best riposte this week. Laughed out loud PB..!

The bit I still don't get is what explains the cumulated trade position exposed by Alfa in his analysis. There has still been no confirmation of a large sell or notification of change in holding. Anyone understand it?

Bassguy. If you continue to say this every day you'll be correct at some point for sure.....! ;-))

Pdub. I did. I invested in other companies with world class resources in the ground. ZIOC AFPO and CHL. Believe me, that affects your outlook on AIM.

BBN. Those are 2 excellent posts. The one change is that I bought in Oct 2013. At that point the amounts represented money I could afford to lose. With the SP rises since, the sums are now at a point where l really can't. Hence caution!

I do have some readies. But the doubt that has been sown in my mind means I won't be adding. I guess that sums up the effect of recent events.

Pdub. Whilst I admire your (and Kens) relentless positivity, I can't help but feel that you and Ken are wrong here. Jagadish has posted a very fair and balanced comment. Yes, I believe that this will be ok longer term but serial disappointments (and they are now serial) ha ve deflated the promising start we have made. In serial , I include a continuing lack of news about the imminent Mokopone (although i acknowledge this is largely out of BM control), unexpected industrial action , missed targets with poor ore grades and now a failed dividend policy release. Incidentally, I was happy (and still am) with NO dividend. The mistake is saying there will be one and then not delivering. The fall the SP has again taken is not surprising as new investors lose confidence and look elsewhere.

Used income when meant profit. Sorry.

No 07.00 RNS then. I just cannot see why it takes so long to devise a Dividend Policy. Surely you say that certain % of income will be paid at certain dates. And you could write in an exceptional circumstances clause if all of profit needed for expansion etc. Simples.

Knuttie / Ophidian : Me too.

I am by nature cautious with investments in AIM as too many have gone wrong and, in retrospect, some of those were signposted by delayed and missed targets.

Here, missing a deferred deadline that was self-imposed would be a real worry .

I have already said that I don't like it when companies go to the wire (deadline driven was the exact phrase I used) as it smacks of disorganisation to me .

For Me, one of the frustrations of the RNS was that the constraint imposed by needing a Generating Licence for projects over 1MW means that only 8% of Vametco's needs can be generated from mini grid. This undersells the technology .

But ...the contract signings are going to come. Very very little doubt now.

Dav3J: you'll get shot by some on here. But you are essentially correct. This RNS confirms we are going where they have said we are going. But MMs won't add too much value in my view as it's not at the contract signing stage.

And so thoughtful to delay one piece of news until after the 2019-20 ISA date.
Dilemma: fill with additionally purchased shares or move already purchased shares outside ISA into new ISAs......

Hi Alfa.
What is your current view on the accumated short position that the MMs were running earlier in the year. We seem to have a position now where they are running a more neutral book suggesting the big seller (s) have cleared...but no confirmation of the large worked sell announced. What could the explanations be - can the MMs pause a sell say on instructions from seller leaving the transaction incomplete and therefore unreported? Are there any other explanations?

Hi Ken. You seem to discount out of hand the possibility of no news - or at least the possibility of notification that any news will be defered to a later date. Why ?
I hope you're correct but I'm not sure I see it as confidently as you.

Delighted for you Pdub. And felt I'd honour it with a positive new thread as you have suggested in the past I think!

My point exactly. H2 2018 came and went and Q12019 nearly at an end. I don't think this shows the company in a good light.

Gosh. How long does it take to change a website especially when it shows factually inaccurate date which would have been market sensitive to prospective buyers?
I can only comment that I can change the Golf Club site in 5 minutes to reflect local rules coming in and out of force.
