Lord Rothermere was a staunch admirer of Hitler and Mussolini, who also briefly flirted with fascism in Britain. Born 150 years ago this summer, Rothermere was also, alongside Lord Beaverbrook, the most powerful press baron during the interwar years.https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Rothermere_-_Hurrah_for_the_Blackshirts.jpg

Rothermere’s reputation may have been irreparably damaged. But his beloved newspaper — still a high-circulation right-wing tabloid much beloved by “Middle England” — easily weathers the occasional barbs about its disreputable past.

Amazing detailed BBC pullout article of the complete history of the ship that carried the fertiliser into the port of Beirut
On 4 August, a massive blast devastated the Beirut port area.
A huge store of ammonium nitrate in a warehouse is thought to have been the cause of the explosion.
Well worth a read with before/after overhead images of the blast areas!!

Leaving the EU actually makes illegal migration worse. As a member of the EU we HAD the right to send illegal immigrants back to the point of entry, i.e. the EU. The Dublin agreement.
Not any more!
Once they are here; they are here.!!

Sharecast News) - Strategists at Bank of America hiked their 18-month target for gold futures from $2,000/oz. to $3,000/oz. as governments continue to act to mend the damage from Covid-19, backstopped by central banks.

By Alex Hamer
Centamin (CEY) has made the most of the gold price in the first half of 2020, and shareholders will reap the rewards.

The Egypt-focused miner increased production at Sukari and dropped its costs year-on-year, resulting in a cash profit for the period more than double last year’s, at $256m (£196m).

The interim dividend of 6? per share was ahead of analyst expectations, and the year-end payout could be increased again.

Production for the half was 256,084 ounces (oz), a 9 per cent uptick on the first half of 2019. The average realised price was $1,657/oz, a 27 per cent increase, and the all-in sustaining cost was $899/oz. This cost measure includes sustaining exploration at the mine site as well as refining costs.

Adjusted free cash flow was $102m in the half, compared to $36m the year before. This will come down in the second half as capital spending is ramped up again. Capex guidance for the full year is $150m-$170m, with $100m to come between July and December because of Covid-19 constraints earlier in the year.

Berenberg is forecasting a 2020 dividend of 22? and free cash flow of $323m.

Being a gold miner is not hard right now. Being a gold miner with net cash and stable production like Centamin is even better. Buy.

Latest news..
A fire in a warehouse exploded a gas canister (probably) that caused the shock necessary to ignite thousands of tons of fertiliser that had been stored for over 6 yrs. The fertiliser was stored as it was illegally imported (probably)
Sounds plausible....
So it wasn't TRUMPS bomb or an Israeli jet...
