I agree RNS. What is surprising is the number o desperate people on here who still believe you can polish a turd.

That's not the impression I got from Harrys Garage (Youtube, I recommend it for petrol heads) who borrowed a Jag iPace and gave up trying to find a usable power point in London. Think he found dedicated Nissan points as well as Tesla. Anyway, I wouldn't know, its just what I read.
Nice to see the SP stabilise today. Was worried on Friday it might turn into a bit of a short term rout with recent holders sitting on ever decreasing paper profits.

Ok, I wont! Thanks

Its not really the need to recharge that currently puts me off, but the anxiety of knowing whether there would be a recharging point available when I got there within a reasonable time frame. From what I gather only Tesla has a reasonable system at the moment. Seems idiocy to me that charging points, few and far between as they are, are not universal as obviously petrol pumps are (this is as I understand it).

Thanks. I was trying not to assume anything

Hi everyone
Someone helpful posted this link to Lithium prices a coupe of weeks back:

Can anyone tell me which of the categories is most applicable to BCN?

When the bonds were taken out no one had any suspicion that the geology had been so catastrophically misinterpreted. HUR was looking like a once in a lifetime investmet. I don't know what the bond price is at the moment. All I will say is find out what it is, and if it is trading at a significant discount to par then then extension is highly unlikely

Think you lot should take a less rosy picture of the bonds. Why o earth would the current lenders extend? They are under no obligation to and whilst the current coupon may be supportable short term (though given the risk they would want to increase the coupon if extended, these will sure as hell be junk bonds) the lenders will want assurance that the capital will be repayable at the end of the term in 2024/2025 or whatever the extended date is. What assurance will there be? Some of you really should read up on basic fundamentals of finance before making naïve statements.

ha! I've been at this long enough to know that you win some, you lose some. If you cant ride the dips there's no hope! Still comfortable up here

Well I've tried my best. Bought back the ones I sold about 3 weeks ago. Back up to my desired holding now. Lost a bit, that will teach me to try to be clever

Yes agree, also a few investors sitting on a few bob after a good run deciding to cash in . When you get a significant dip you start to get stop losses kicking in as well. In the absence of news sit tight and see what happens

I still wonder how they (the Government and industry) are going to work out the logistics of vehicle recharging. Compared to petrol/diesel the recharging times are so long, and even when charged there will no doubt there will be lost time while owners finish their coffee and go to the loo. Hopefully more home charging will take place, encouraged if non home charging comes at a premium. That will take pressure off. That raises the question of what happens to the poorer in society who cant have a home charger as they live in terraced houses, flats etc. How can that be made fair? I did notice that in the car park of my local ALDI there are now a couple of chargers - there was never fossil fuels available there. I just hope the Government are better at planning for this well prior to 2030 than they have been for Brexit or the Virus

That is a good observation daltry. I was already suspicious of the infamous Friday RNS

A thoughtful analysis, thanks for sharing. Have you down now as someone to take heed of so don't let me down and keep up the good work!
John

I think the E type comparison is pushing a bit! But I do agree that trading is a bit difficult because or the bid offer spread. You have to have quite a dip to be able to get back in at profit

Got to laugh jaffjoon. You post asking if there is anyone there, and when I do you, and everyone else, ignores me!

Unless I am reading the RNS, and this mornings press comments, wrong its all done and dusted. Am I missing something?
Disappointed as I would like to have voiced my disapproval in an ineffective but personally satisfying 'No'. However no Corporate action request ever reached me from iWeb to afford me that opportunity.
Wait for this to be leveraged by this sharp suited mob and the quality of care for our elderly to deteriorate. Naturally I wish a plague of locusts to have a right good crack at the leafy Surrey gardens of the feckless Board of Directors.
There, with that off my chest I can go and have my bacon sandwich.

Wow that's worthwhile. A RNS after close of the market saying one of the BOD is pledging support for the bid with all of his 658 shares. Including the 129 shares he bought recently. Gracious, that's £150 quids worth. That will sway the bid........
Sorry if I sound like a cynical bloke. Its probably because I'm a cynical bloke.

Assuming that was meant sincerely I wish you the best too

daltry
This lot have no idea. Been here for 2 minutes.
Yep you newbies are right, the rest of us who went on this journey for a few years, attended meeting and presentations, watched interviews etc. have no knowledge, no wisdom. Good luck. Because you're gonna need it.
Keep well daltry, maybe meet again on a another board.
