Nah, that was my last throw of the dice after Labolla news a few days ago which was a positive...the next info could come on or after the Court Case on the 28/3.

Dunno whether any of you regular posters use Stockopedia for info and analysis but in the spec junior expo mining stocks sector PAT comes under the heading "Sucker" stock.

Not exactly what you want to hear when simply "speculative"
would suffice. For £300 a year while the info is exhaustive I very much doubt to the average investor its' worth the money.

If you hold 10 stocks which imo is the max a pis should do, anything more becomes a headache keeping up to date and Stockopedia will send your head spinning and cause you unnecessary anxiety.

Interpreting the mass of figures given there's enuff free info out there just complicates matters. Keep it simple. Avoid.

Hong Kong's Hang Seng index is down another 584 points at lunch as the virus continues spreading in Shenzen the main tech & manufacturing hub bordering HK, which is now in its 3rd day of lockdown scheduled to last a week. Its 17m people many who work in tech & manufacturing are off work, severely impacting the supply of electronic goods, cars and hundreds of parts to the port of Yantian for global distribution.

Foxconn one of Apples bigest iphone assembly plants is closed. Many Hong Kongers are employed in Shenzen. To date the Hang Seng is down nearly 20% ytd and Shanghai's main index is off 13% as parts of the city are closed due to a doubling of the virus in the last 24 hours.

Investors cont to switch out of risk assets. Gold the usual safe haven is down from recent high of $2078, perversely falling worried about the Fed's move on rates this week. Morning all.

A mixed start to wk 11 trading across Asia. Bargain hunters were out in Tokyo after losing 822 points last week the Nikkei 225 is up 217 points. Shanghai, Jakarta & Sydney all higher on local factors but SK & Singapore fall.

HK slides c.4% after falling 7% last week on concerns that the invasion of Ukraine could spill over into Nato countries. Selling from the Mainland and inflation worries have HK investors on the sidelines.

Futures call London and NY higher at open on hopes that talks between Russia & Ukraine resuming today could lead to an easing of tensions.

With WA goldies averaging 24% down ytd I guess we cannot be too unhappy at being 26% off the pace. I'm c.30% down so mirroring the stats painful as it is.....is about as good as it gets imo. I certainly don't see why we should be any better than the rest given our orphan status. Since the mrkt has a down on junior goldies the nos may not be that meaningful in terms of GIG v Mrkt Cap or any other metric.....

The Fed meets on Wed and most expect a 25 basis hike in rates and possibly as much as 150 basis by year end. Gold looks to be range bound between $1960 - $2050 and of 18 Wall St analysts polled 44% are bullish, 17% bearish and 39% neutral. On Main St 63% polled are bulls but thats to be expected.

Over the last 10 years gold has risen on 5 annual occasion for an overall (5•2%) growth rate. Whereas the previous 10 year period saw an annual growth rate of c.(15%). Take that 20 year period and the av growth rate comes in at c.8%.

The S&P 500 over the period 2001-2020 has seen an average return of 7% (5%) adjusted for inflation, but this period saw the .com boom & bust, Lehman Bros inspired 2008 financial crash and 9/11, the worst 20 year period on record. Nevertheless returns were comfortably ahead of the longterm US inflation rate of nearly 3•5%.

Smoothing out the ups 'n downs investors using a 'hands off' approach should match the long-term average return of c.6%-7% (inflation adjusted) by tracking the SP 500. Seeking a better return (10%+) risks trying to beat the mrkt which rarely works out well. A financial stock picking genius like WB achieves 20% and even he recommends pis to buy a SP 500 tracker and sleep well at night.

Never bought into Mutual Funds as the annual costs can be high which may also include hidden charges. Apart from that they track the wider mrkt and are not designed to beat the mrkt. I prefer to do my own research with the aim of beating the mrkt.

If i'm going to lose money I'm perfectly capable of doing it myself, I don't need to pay a fund manager to do it for me.

Back in for a few shares pre F/Y results.
Shares went up too fast and we're due a pull back. No doubt the greedy Govt will be picking the pockets of overseas palm companies, so factor that into any purchase of REA. Whatever the results should be on the stellar side for a change!
