Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
Ask yourself as few questions why do the shorters have material wealth and dnt come on forums to complain or be emotional about the price . Shorters dnt just go short they can go Long too.
Why do they trust the algorithms they have invested millions in ? How much have we invested in technology?
If their software predicts the pattern which they invest millions based on that prediction why would you not ?
What is keeping us emotionally stuck in a program of only one way which is up when you’re fully aware it can be up and down .
If we become fixated in only one way are we not limiting ourselves and that’s exactly what they system profits from .
If we invest as a share it’s for the price to go one way and that up . So if it goes down then it’s against you personal investment. Which can get emotional when it’s your personal hard worked money . But this often acts as a personal emotional entanglement . If it goes down it’s emotional rollocoster . And this pretty this gets us stuck and investing more and more either bringing your average down or hoping it’s goes up stuck in a program of it’s only ever going up and never down .
Mayb we need to accept and play our cards better and accepts both ways and leave our program
And become flexible both ways . Forget what has happened and start New start from scratch. Work together . We try to together spreadbet or cfd . Yes it’s high risk maybe use a percentage of your investment that you’re comfortable.
Example of shorts have increased today sell your share and spreadbet for it to go low see what would happen without investing .
We value everyone’s input and hardwork and it’s appreciated.
Look some for short and some for long some for low price and some for high . That’s ok both ways nothing personal or emotions need to be involved it’s just a pattern that we all need to be on the right side off , at the right time . And yes I think there so many clever people on here tg4 Pedro south coast and so many more .
I think if we look at both sides and use the patters and begin to spreadbet using the shorts software as a guide we can may have better end result .
It’s ok for the price to go down or up it’s about how we can be on the right side of it at the right time ?
Working together on this point will be much more enjoyable than a constant downfall . Dnt get stuck into a perception . They are clever people here if they works together we can all profit from them .
Thank you
Agree shorts can get it wrong but how many times have they been wrong compared to the average part time
Investor .
They play in millions we may play with a few hundred k with minimum tools more based on your own luck and timing .
I spoke to an investor whom explained how much they invest in their software that predicts patterns and the analysts look at this date advice on the investment . It’s crazy how many millions they invest but it’s all
Based on the system .
Yes of course it can be wrong but more often it’s rights . Odds favors them
Shorts have millions invested in computers that predict the price they follow this technology that’s is far superior to anyone here . They invest millions in this
. Also shorts do this day in day out it’s the full time occupation.
They have the advantage clearly and there is no point in hating as that shows emotional entanglement.
I think it would be good to learn and follow them instead of investing long term maybe follow them and use them as a guide as they have far more tools., knowledge than me for sure and that’s ok .
Maybe it’s time to change .

Next , jd and primark share prices have recovered well .
Online only is for everyone and much easier to set up , increasing competition and dissolving market share .
Boohoo and asos no longer new or ahead of the game .
Much harder to compete against online and physical stores .
Next said sales in the six months to July rose 5.4% year-on-year to GBP2.64 billion from GBP2.50 billion, as pretax profit rose 4.8% to GBP419.8 million from GBP400.6 million. The retailer increases its guidance for full price sales in the second half to 2.0% annual growth, compared to its previous guidance of 0.5%. This would take full-year growth to 2.6%. While it noted that the guidance may be perceived as "cautious" given the 3.2% growth in the first half, Next maintains growth will moderate due to the erosion of purchasing power amid inflation, and the softening in the employment market as the year progresses. It also raised full-year guidance for pretax profit to GBP875 million from GBP845 million previously, which would be up 0.5% from the prior year. It also expects to make an exception gain of GBP110 million form the Reiss transaction, which is not included in the profit guidance.
----------
Boohoo & ASOS were fresh leaders of online . Now everyone has caught up and joined in nothing separates them from the rest . If anything they’re worse off .
Can’t see anything changing for them apart from takeover of some sort .
Next, primark and jd have all done reasonably well compared to boohoo and asos the price fall has been extreme in comparison.
The growth strategy and online trend which took these to the heights is not going to work now as everyone has progressed to online .
Next, primark and jd all have stores and good online presence.
If boohoo and asos change strategy and have stores price will rocket . Until then I can’t see the price moving much will stay around this range maybe a buyout rumour can give it a boost for a day or two then drop back to the normal range .
I can’t see the price going much high without stores , they have enough brands , makeup and furniture to create their own John Lewis . Mega stores will take next , primark and ikea business . John Lewis would get priced out .
I think strong combination on stores and online is the way to go for them to showcase their brands . Primark have done well and next which is also has a strong online presence. Are physical stores with online the missing thing for boohoo and asos ?
This would improve their returns issue . Shein would definitely take a knock .
Accumulating more online brands now is a pointless strategy then need an amazing physical shopping experience that next and primark have never seen .
It’s how to take next and primark customers and reduce physical competition.
