RE: RMM 20's Range Again Soon28 Nov 2021 12:22
Feb-22 copper is about 1.2% below spot. You'd normally expect it to be a bit above spot, but not by much in what is still a low interest rate environment. That is a negative, but it's not particularly grim.
For the forecast on the link you posted all they are doing is knocking off 2% per period. They are guessing.
The covid thing affects everyone but if it is an issue there will be vaccines for the variant within a few months. We are better at dealing with it now. Although the omicron appears to be materially more infectious, I haven't yet see if it is more or less lethal. Treatments such as SNG001 which are largely virus agnostic are also on the horizon.
The debt is manageable and indeed required in order to develop the mine to its full potential. Very significant progress has already been made in that direction.
You talk about a change in sentiment on RMM but frankly after the fall of ground in what was then the only working stope, and the hesitant and initially pretty ropey efforts at financing, sentiment here has always been pretty ****. That's why the gains haven't held - there are enough people who had suffered from the incompetence of the previous management to make up a pretty solid bunch of sellers. Sustainable gains will be made when RMM report positive financials (rather than positive production data) but the one follows the other and production data is very good. When the financials are shown to be as good the share price will follow.
