Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
Can't complain under the circumstances, but they did aim to pay an 8p/pa divi. Maybe we will see SP at 100p+ again soon. They did announce most of this in Jan estimates.
Good find Taylor, I am more than comfortable with this share and it's direction. Ve are obviously no mugg's....... and neither is Akers. Do we have an IPO to look forward to?
As a FSH (fast asleep holder (LTH)) a climb to 14p would be break even, fat chance.
The storm today appears to be somebody off loading stock, anybody explain?
Same boat, LTH at 14.5p avg. I was in when it went to 20p (twice) my own fault really. The Saudi's have, hopefully realised that US shale oil is not going away and they have shot themselves in the foot, now Putin will be having more of a say along with a few others i.e. Iran (on the up) and Venezuela (now bust). Also, Exxon have been quite lately.....
You can also have a joint account as well, so £60k. If you like high risk.
What's going on with AV, off 25% from it's pre market turmoil high's and back down to Jan 2014 levels. I thought we were on solid ground with this company.
FinWaves, how much exposure do BNC have to the Brazil Olympics or their effects on the economic success / failure of the wider economy, the Zika virus is likely going to wipe out the attendances re. spectators and athletes - your thoughts.
Floating off the UK business maybe?? Or more of this renewable energy support??
Tell me about it, I had a little (500 No) top-up at 290p and thought I was doing ok. Still I have a divi of 3.08% so better than their 123 current a/c. What's this about them supporting renewable solar energy, presumably moving into a funding gap to be vacated by the Government.
£148m is one hell of a trade...
Now which on of you guys has gone all in with BNC, seem's someone has had a little punt.
Da_Roadrunner, think you need to check your information. All the Botin buys were at Eur3.98 (give or take), not £3.98. According to BNC director Deals at top of page.
Just read back through the posts, you will find some interesting if not pessimistic reading.
Looking very good here, but investors must diversify there portfolio and most other shares are still struggling to recover. One of my best shares is Aviva (avg 300p), but it's still £1.00 off its high's. I bought NG at 740p so the gain is almost 5x the divi which should be my trigger to sell or top slice.
Sign of the times though SP price would ordinarily be more than double what it is now. BOD are not doing what they said they would, which is to pay minimum 8p/pa.Suppose it's what happens when divi has no cover so they will probably cut the next instalment too. Hey ho.
Son is currently doing 8:00am to 12:30am split shifts, usually 2 - 3 hour break around 2:00, every day this week. GM is on a week sick leave and there are no team leaders. I recon his hourly pay has eroded down to £5.00. Told him to expect reward in heaven. Is this slave labour.
Just hoofed this post to concur. My son has been working too many 18 hour shifts lately (some without breaks) because of under staffing, penny wise pound foolish you couldn't make it up. His pub regularly has an intense working environment, I expect him to collapse one day. 12:30am finishes and 8:00am starts is my main gripe as he too often only gets 4 - 5 hrs sleep. See the problem. I'm annoyed because he is on salary so dosen't get more for 60+ hrs/ wk. Rant over.
Looks like all media scaremongering as per usual. From the company's latest update; "On November 16, 2015 several Australian media publications reported that Rio Tinto had applied for an extension of their mining licence at Kestrel. As part of this application, Rio Tinto was reported to have told the Australian federal government that it would close the Kestrel Mine if the application was refused. The Group has reviewed the Rio Tinto application in detail and believes that it is part of the normal permitting process for an extension of the existing mining licence to cover the full extent of the mine plan. The application for licence extension relates to the 500 series longwall panels which are due to be mined at the back end of its expected mine life and are largely outside of the Anglo Pacific royalty area. Rio Tinto has not commented on the timing of any closure, and the Company does not believe this would occur before the completion of any permitted Reserves in the current mine schedule. The Group believes this will have little or no impact on its Kestrel royalty".
Also, dividend is now paid quarterly - Feb, May, Aug & Dec. next one is just over 1.28p in Feb. script or cash.
