Even if something cropped up, and even let’s hope it was positive and not negative, still unprofessional for them not to communicate the delay before the end of April. I have worked in large MNCs and I would never accept such slack behaviour by any of my team. People will doubt your abilities for getting complex things right if you are unable to get the simple things correct.
I prefer my theory if it's all the same
Thanks OMR. Sorry was busy yesterday so missed this one. How is your success rate for getting replies from Justine?
All those who thought that the delay in the Q&A session was due to impending news whether they would like to guess again, but that may be a bit cruel. So I will merely ask if anyone has attempted to reach out to the erstwhile Justine to find out what is happening.
If my glass was half empty I would suspect that they may not wish to have it as things haven’t gone to plan (pre the need to inform the market)....yet again, and they didn’t want to face us in case we asked the wrong question. But as everyone who knows me knows ...my glass is always half full with Wres, so lets just put it down to a clerical oversight....
As anyone who has done business knows, missing committed deadlines and poor communication are indications of poor management. If they can’t get such a simple thing as meeting their own deadline on a Q&A session, specially at such a sensitive time where we have had numerous miserable quarters and they have claimed, yet again, that a corner has been turned, or alternatively if they knew they couldn’t meet an RNS commitment, to notify the market in advance, how can we believe they will meet more important deadlines. I am sure someone will make sure this is brought up, if we ever have a Q&A....see....told you...half full ;)
Hope you are well and keeping safe GIT.
I was always told in business, as in life, your only as good as your word. The reason that the world ended up with trump was because the Americans took the attitude that your word isn’t your bond, no need to be honest, you can say something and not mean it. You can say something and not follow through.
Instead of excusing MM for signing off on a commitment he has failed to met, however petty you may see it, it was important enough to put it in and RNS, you should be condemning him for continuing to make rookie mistakes and reinforcing the view that his RNSs are not worth the paper they are written on.
News was what was stopping them having their Q&A as opposed to incompetence....I hope you right
Safety, I would presume that at any one time Wres is subscribed to at least one site with live prices
That was why I worded it carefully, they can’t copyright the APT number, that is the number and it’s not owned by one company. That they can do is control the automated feed it into another site and would clearly be pointless having one person do this exercise everyday, though I don’t imagine it would take up too much time for a PA to look on screen and then manually enter into a section on our site.
Well now you come to mention it...seeing as we are supposed to be a tungsten company...it would make sense, though those sites may prohibit other sites from copying and pasting the information in a simple fashion I am sure There is a way that is not too painful
Thank you for this, pls note it states that Regua needs to be on alert, due to its numbers...
“ António Costa also said that there are 27 municipalities that must be alert, because they have a Covid-19 incidence rate higher than 120 cases per 100 thousand inhabitants.
These 27 counties are: Alijó, Alpiarça, Arganil, Batalha, Beja, Boticas, Cabeceiras de Baixo, Castelo de Paiva, Celorico de Basto, Cinfães, Coruche, Fafe, Figueiró dos Vinhos, Lagos, Lamego, Melgaço, Oliveira do Hospital, Paços de Ferreira, Penafiel, Peniche, Peso da Régua, Ponte da Barca, Póvoa de Lanhoso, Tábua, Tabuaço, Vidigueira and Vila Real de Santo António.”
LME Tin ended at 32,000 end of the week, as compared to 23,000 shard assumed for the year. It is volatile and so could drop down but suspect average for year will be north of 26,000....
May it long continue ...along with tungsten
The problem with people who attempt to be fortune tellers...positive or negative, without actual facts but relying on speculation and forecasts is they tend to be wrong but there is no consequence for their speculation so they happily do it.
I don’t take either the rampers or derampers seriously. What I see is an April with numbers far better than the last quarter....I have also seen them over and over again produce a good month and fall flat on their face the next month. So let’s wait till end of the quarter to see xx
Safety, I know you like to see positive in everything but seriously “ It might even be simple focus on ramping up production, which is most likely imho.” so in the last two weeks, after making the statement, they suddenly realized they have to focus on ramping up so don’t have time for a forum after all but are too busy to tell anyone...
It’s another in a very long line of over promising (though no idea why a forum would be over promising) and under delivering...something he is a Master of....
Pls don’t get me wrong, there has been a lot of buys the last 48 hours and I suspect something is afoot (good or bad) but this kind of behaviour just reinforces the view that when it comes to meeting the most basic commitments, they are still failing miserably (even if there have been developments, it’s clear that they can’t arrange the forum in time, so why didn’t they at the start of the week push it back a couple of weeks?
More brilliant to read that I won the euro lotto...it’s good to dream
Safety, whatever is happening, if they have made an unambiguous statement that they will hold a forum this month in a RNS, shouldn’t they at least issue a statement that it will be delayed, even if they don’t say why? Otherwise what is the point of an RNS, if you can’t rely on a commitment made in it?
Two days ago, guess it could be a RNS at 10am....
Hope springs eternal
From tomorrow...wonder how much notice they plan to give for this...
“Michael Masterman (Chairman), Pablo Neira (Executive Director) and Paul Hailes (CFO) will host an investor Q&A later this month, the details of which will be announced shortly.”
From the Production RNS earlier this month....
Was being flippant....what would be good would be if someone could get MM to commit to releasing May figures as we appear to be good at producing the odd month hear or there but been unable to keep it going for two months in a row so far....
