American markets seem to be generally sharply down. Not just SRRA. Also Gilead for example.

Says it all.

What's overdue is news of the Covid isolations, end of same.

RNS surely overdue

You're right. nothing to say

So where's everybody?

This is all very fine, but why no update on Covid problems?

The latest regulations in Newfoundland are not really the point.
The point is, what is necessary to keep Covid out of the mine.
In that context, another week's delay is neither here nor there.

Of course you're right, it must be a buy.

That has to be a sell, right?

TODAY's RNS shows that the company is still on a knife edge.
If all goes well from here, all will be well.
But we certainly can not afford any further setback until the new stopes are in operation.

Stars in his eyes, I think/

Glad to hear the dog is (hopefully) on the mend. I have back problems myself.

I think someone should tell DJRyan it's safe to come back.

Of course you may be right.
However, if it quacks, and there is a duck farm across the road, personally I may draw conclusions.

Facts are such stubborn things, aren't they?

'the current share price will have no bearing on what is paid for the 5%'
Formally, no, it won't.
Actually? It makes a big difference, in my opinion. Putting your opponent on the back foot is a good start to any negotiation.

@ Paddygall.
Anyone can write a nice ethics statement.
It is another matter to apply it, when the chips are down.
CUI BONO? is the question/

Sorry, but I don't buy it. Cui bono? Who, bar Newcrest, stood to gain from pushing down Greatland's share price at this particular time?
As you point out yourself, the shorters were making next to nothing on the trades.
If that is fair conduct towards a smaller and weaker partner, the language has lost its meaning. It is brigandage, pure and simple.

'NCM will play fair. They have so far.'
So you don't think the shorting attacks on GGP's share price - which you outlined here - were orchestrated or sponsored by NCM? Or do you think that is playing fair?
Can't say I agree.
