Palladium price up over 3% today.

More than double the number of shares sold than bought, and share price goes up. Undeclared transactions? Something else?

are a bit weird at the moment. Record unemployment, record loss of production, every business getting helicopter money, every government printing money until the ink runs out!
I was going to hold OPTI until they reached £1 plus , but have decided to take my 60% profit of the last couple of months and sit on the sidelines. Good luck to the rest of you.

Hi Stoodio. I see your quote is from Sylvania' media platform, so must be right.

I saw the difference in your earlier post. FT reckons the data was from Data from 29 Nov 2019 - 31 Mar 2020.
Maybe I should cancel my subscription !!

From FT.com. 26.32% held by top holders.
M&G Investment Management 8.61%. FIL Investment Advisors (UK) Ltd 5.34%. Majedie Asset Management Ltd 4.76%
Miton Asset Management Ltd.4.68%. Hargreave Hale Ltd. 1.44%. Odey Asset Management LLP 0.83%. BlackRock Investment Management (UK) Ltd. 0.56%. FIL Gestion SASU 0.1%.

would a dividend make the share more attractive to other buyers; or maybe both!!

would make sense for a Chinese company to try and buy SLP as they are the biggest consumers.
"Chinese investments and contracts in sub-Saharan Africa total $299 billion from 2005 to 2018, according to the China Investment Global Tracker, and in 2018, Chinese president Xi Jinping vowed to invest a further $60 billion into African nations." Quote from Lonny J Avi Brooks on Quartz.

as to what the next RNS will state. Probably loads of cash generated from earlier high prices in the the quarter, tempered by warnings about the recent shut down and drop in demand. I'd guess that there will be a shortage of material worldwide immediately after demand kicks-off. Some big buys going through even at today's higher price. So its time to decide, buy now or miss the boat?

appears to move in one direction only (upwards) even whilst most of the stock market is depressed.

a few more shares today whilst the price is down. Suspect there will be a major jump in SP after mining recommences and the demand side kicks-off.

is one of my favourite UK shares for buying and selling with its regular up and downs; though this time I think the past over optimism is justified and will be holding until it reaches £2.

I wouldn't bet the farm on anything just yet; its possible that there could be another negative correction for the market in general. I've bought and sold Bango many times, but at the moment I'm trying to buy less riskier shares in small batches so as to spread any possible downside. There are many great UK & US companies out there at low prices and comparatively low risk. BGO is no longer at 62p as in mid March so it may look a little topped out to some. Good luck to those that manage to get a win.

a bad time to buy-in to Tesco.
Costco (COST:NASDAQ) is doing very well for those buying US shares. Sales are up by a high margin.

a small amount on the expectation that they will bounce back after the virus plays-out. I hope the debt meanwhile doesn't sink them! Also bought a few Whitbread as they also are at rock bottom values. Many other good shares out there going cheap.
