He even seems to be threatening Musk's US citizenship [which he should not have got because he worked in violation of his student visa].

'Cash and cash equivalents as at 31 December 2024 were US$96k (2023: US$121k).'

And

'The Group may, in due course, seek to raise additional capital to support increasing production rates and additional exploration activities to increase the Group's resource base, and to reduce creditors.'

How much of a risk of a seriously discounted placing are you prepared to take? It seems like cash is urgently needed as none has been raised since year end and the company is not creating any free cash flow.

'The investment in our grid- which will rise to around four times the current spending levels - will allow for 80 transmission projects and all associated works right across the country to be completed within five years.'

Excellent news for any company with exposure to the contracts and spare capacity [Van Elle's piling division comes to mind]

'The investment in our grid- which will rise to around four times the current spending levels - will allow for 80 transmission projects and all associated works right across the country to be completed within five years. This will significantly increase the grid's capacity, through new power lines, substations and other technologies, to handle the flow of electricity from new renewable sources.'

Soooo much piling! This should be excellent news for Van Elle over the coming years. Hopefully this will be discussed in the forthcoming presentation.

And more... 'He’s widely considered one of the greatest chess players of all time. Kasparov was World Chess Champion from 1985 until 2000 and is famous for his deep strategic understanding and fierce competitive style. He also became known for his matches against IBM’s Deep Blue supercomputer in the late 1990s, which were landmark events in AI and chess history.'

What are the odds that the company will need refinancing, which will be highlighted in the annual accounts... Will shareholders then get the suicide option: support massive dilution or face winding up? Will ocelot and other reverse rampers then try and spin the dilution as positive?

Many never come back...

'oh dear,accounts dellayed'

No - it is a clear sign of such a successful company that it takes the auditors so long to crunch the huge amount of numbers... A HUGE BUY signal in the Ramponomics Handbook™.

No - you are wrong. II have bought Jarvis, which has no business relationship with this site.

'Coiled Spring' - I wondered why there were hundreds of posts today?

Panther Metals, a natural resources business that reported a £2.2mn loss last year, revealed this week that it had bought a single bitcoin, executing on a plan announced earlier in June. Its shares are up 81 per cent this month.

Panther up nearly 20 times what they paid for the Bitcoin... no sign of a bubble...

This giant microwave may change the future of war

Don't think I have heard of these folks before.

'Sudden loss of key US satellite data could send hurricane forecasting back ‘decades’'

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jun/28/noaa-cuts-hurricane-forecasting-climate

Makes 100% MAGA sense to cut Woke hurricane forecasting... only Liberals are worried about a little bit of wind and rain because they fell for the global warming hoax and believe scientists who say...

Yes, investors are buying Swiss government bonds—even at very low or negative yields—because they expect the Swiss franc to appreciate relative to the US dollar. They're essentially willing to earn negative interest in Swiss francs because they believe the potential devaluation of the dollar outweighs the 3.73% yield currently offered by 2-year US Treasuries.

This interest rate differential implies that the market is pricing in an approximate 7.5% decline in the dollar versus the Swiss franc over the next two years, based on interest rate parity.

As the dollar declines in value, dollar-denominated assets tend to rise in price. And the Swiss franc isn't the only perceived safe haven—many investors, especially in Asia, are also turning to gold as a store of value.

'what will be the next disaster to happen'

Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill' will add $2.5 trillion to the existing projected $8 trillion if his economic plans do not wreck the US economy. Nearly $11 trillion added to the existing US debt of $38 trillion... The ending of the $ as the main reserve currency is your answer... and why we should all be concerned about negative interest rates in Switzerland, especially if lower interest rates here encourage even more unfunded spending.

Buying and selling on a 2.3% dividend when the spread is around that makes little financial sense unless you need to for some tax planning reasons...

I think it might be more of a reaction to the expectation that interest rates will be softening soon... The £ vs the $ is on a run to $1.37 from $1.23 when Trump was sworn in, and Swiss 2YR GOV debt has a negative yield. UK interest rates must be on the way down soon, and that would be a BIG PLUS for DUKE.

Got to be good for the price of Gold
