RE: dividend12 Dec 2018 14:53
I suspect the strategy has already been agreed by the BoD, just an appropriate timing point to announce it. When FM said he expected to detail dividend plans by the end of the year I took that to have flex and if more appropriate to be Jan or Feb, then so be it. Its a longer term goal and I am not one who subscribes to the view it will make a great deal of SP difference right now. Its only when an actual payment is announced that some excited income hunters will get interested.
Just because a miner (junior or not) says it has a dividend policy, plans to return 20,25,30% of profit to shareholders, outlines profitability etc does not mean the lazy Fund holders get it. They are just as likely to see 'high risk mining' .
