final results not until march 2014

shares aren't doing too bad for an ex-dividend stock - 3.3% yield currently and that's only based on this 1st interim dividend the biggie is yet to come later this year

January Cancord Genuity broker forecast is 16p reduced from 18p presumably on the static price of gold at $1200; i'd be happy enough with 16p a share but believe they will pop into the 20p range myself as production is ramped up this year and costs of extraction reduce.

looks like curtains for a while for this dog a of a share

I think the cost of extraction depends on which mines you are looking at Evander may well be around the $900/oz mark but the Barberton mines I would guess are closer to $800/oz. The price of gold generally settles at what it can be extracted for and as few are extracting at much less than $900/oz i'd say Pan African are in a very strong position with the Barberton mines at around $800/oz http://www.panafricanresources.com/

2700 seems to be a bit of a barrier currently but this share shows no signs to dipping down to brokers forecasts of 2400-2500 ish

spread of 8.30 - 8..74 is a bit greedy - price is clearly on the way up for a correction, i think i'll hang on in there 9p broker recommendation will be passed by end of week at this rate

looking at the trades i can see two lots of lots of small buys within a couple of minutes followed by a sell for a fraction of a penny profit. the share will be worth playing with for a few days in this way i would say until news of financing is published.

Good article, I think you are right certainly when the new flats just outside the city of London, at tower Bridge/Wapping are built, i don't think many of the purchasers will need any assistance stumping up the cash

amazing what can happen with rises in price of gold in Septemebr 2011 this share was 280p and this timelast year were 65p a share then mainly around 15p a share since then. we are in a dip and i expect this to risen again within 2- month to at least around 15p, it will happen as so as deal with renegotiation of loan from major shareholder is announced and we have trading update in Q4 results at start of february.

beam me up scotty! 90 days must have been the trouble shooting official statement from the chief financial officer, or it could be from someone with a put option

brokers recommendations are very useful when printed off and used a bog paper it seems!

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-01-10/berkeley-wins-approval-for-project-at-london-wapping-site.html tower hamlets approved permissio to build 1800 homes + shops and offices in the old news international premises at wapping near tower bridge. This must the news that has moved the share price so much today - I can see it moving more yet especially when 2nd interim dividend is announced which I estimate will be over 300p

one is the biggest rises in any day for berkeley, wonder what news is in the pipeline

I noted at the AGM dilution was voted down however consolidation woudl on teh other hand be great news along with the investment promotional trip to london and possible platimum production.

liberium and deutche have today stuck to their guns marking this stock as a hold at 2634 and 2587 they may need is issues another recommendation soon as the market clearly disagrees with them.

still struggling to get over the 50p mark at moment though

Thanks for update Salz I feel the interims will be rather good and we shall see the share price price gradually in anticipation of them shame these mining shares often drift back after good news. I'll bet their cost of production/ounce is very competitive by now $700-$900/ounce many other gold miners can't say the same. roll on February hope they are well received in London and everything is tickety boo financially; i do like this share now their dividend is back and and they certainly are bringing the cash, when all debts paid off these shares will indeed start going places

http://markets.investorschronicle.co.uk/research/Markets/Companies/Forecasts?s=BKG:LSE investors chronicle shows 16 broker recommendations - none recommend a sell - most do recommend hold, 2 for outperform and 3 recommend buy. they also show conservative dividend growth predictions. interestingly no broker with these large dividends wants to be embarrassed by suggesting a sell, they have however mainly suggested a drop in the share price which would make the dividends massive if the share price dropped towards 2000p I suggest that this defies logic and really wonder if they are advising their high net worth private clients looking for high income dividends the same way. We shall see who is right as news of the massive dividends catches on more.

loads of buy trades today and a sneaky one of over £1m posted at 1635 clearly big money investors disagree with the broker ratings. question is whether there will be another little dip before this share rises? last years 2nd interim was 59p this year 1st interim is 90p(ex div now) but if the 2 nd interim is increased 6 fold like the 1 st interim then this is still a 13% yield. £568m is being returned to shareholders as per annual report, so it's money in the bank on that basis. when to buy if you are not already in always the question - this is my best performer apart form a takeover a while ago.
