For the run.....a bit disappointed in the drop, but...hey ho....what goes down...goes up....eventually.

As Ivan: I am preparing the company for my retirement by making various folk the managers of the various units we operate, while under my supervision and coaching. The company is honest in its dealings with foreign countries, with us showing clear records of payments which supports the care of the nationals of those countries. Our production figures are good, with an increase in production anticipated in 2019. Industrial safety is good with a fatality record less than ?... Free cash flow is reasonable, £5.2 billion worth of shares no longer in circulation due to buyback and no longer available for loan (stuff the shorters).

Havent given Brexit any thought as to effects of next week....a long time away. First thoughts are the City wants to make money.....they have 3 choices...celebrate and bump up prices......disregard brexit and business as usual....bad reaction: batter the FTSE and they make money on the stop loss trades then the bounce effect which the storm passes.....personally...I'll be in cash before it happens...then play as usual once the dust settles.

Ken...quite happy with what I got...had reckoned on the 780 mark...sold over 785+...so smiles all round...always leave a bit for the other guys...meanwhile my MKS has gone up...not blue...but heading that way....fun..fun...fun

Its on the cards for you Pete...meanwhile I couldnt resist MKS....bought a few to see how they'd go

LOL...she's flying....couldnt get a quote until it hit 313.......well done guys....we all won today

Sold......beat my expectations....now for Glenda

Third Quarter 2018 Production Report

Going to the summaries in the report, it looks like metals will NOT do too well in production figures. YTD 2018 compared to YTD 2017 shows production numbers mostly reduced in the 2018 period...compounded by weaker prices for some of the metals compared to prices of last year.........I will be pleasantly surprised if the update call reveals market price improving news.

One is glad to have been of service.....lol

concerns: commodity prices will affect full year
: Katanga...contaminated cobalt...an additional cost to production
: DRC screwing all mining concerns
: agri down on 1st half
: share buy back

all of the above might Glen want to make a prep statement to get the market ready for the full year result, which will either report improvement on the above, or otherwise. History says they like to early release hints of good news....take it from there :)

I'm hopeful I'll be in profit tomorrow.....some signs that 780 MIGHT be on the cards for my lot....fingers crossed for 765 anyway up from current 754 .......nae chance ! .......then again 20-50 p swing was never a prob for Fresnillo

Not just banks Billy.....London...the City boys are terrified they lose their bob a job living....all share trading done at Frankfurt or wherever.....be a huge hit for London and thats where all the big money lies...with money getting less and less the further north you go from London

I wouldnt even bother voting on any other brexit stuff....more to do with my 10 minutes ....like buy a nice share that rockets inside that 10 minutes....lol

I suppose the simplistic view was that notice would be served...we'd leave end of subject...why they have debated for 2 years on how we leave I reckon was the big stall by Germany....give us time to get the remaining EU states solidified and working with Germany before you leave....keep the waffle going until I (Germany) give you the nod

A vote in parliament as whether or not actually offer it...then act accordingly...if yes...then 2nd ref....if no....leave EU with whatever the deal or no deal is ........

Fancy it'll go to a 2nd referendum, with note attached" well folks...we tried to follow your request, but the deal on offer would have caused you a lot of grief...so being able to list the pros and cons as it actually is, we have decided to let you now make an informed choice....leave with all the grief it will entail or stay and hope for the best under German rule...oops EU rule)

an hour ago: Labour has said it will "inevitably" call a motion of no confidence in the government if Theresa May loses a Commons vote on her Brexit deal.
Shadow Brexit secretary Sir Keir Starmer told Sky News his party would seek to force a general election.
Environment Secretary Michael Gove insisted Mrs May could still win the vote on 11 December despite dozens of her own MPs being against her EU deal.
He told the BBC's Andrew Marr winning the vote would be "challenging".
But although Mrs May's deal was not perfect, "we have got to recognise that if we don't vote for this, the alternatives are no deal or no Brexit".
