"relentless selling" can currently be identified.

At this time we've got 23 sell trades vs. 28 buy trades. The total sell volume (now) being about 10-15% higher than the buy volume at a total of about 2.5mio shares. Now what's so relentless about that?

These kind of posts are really anything but helpful and appear to serve one purpose: To scare and cause insecurity. What a waste of time.

this time by F/R. So after SM123 (and others as well) have failed with their investment strategy I could imagine you are the next in line. Hoping on reluctant investment concerning the first drill, then hoping on a SL duster and finally hoping that the market will react according to your plans. Well, well - now that is a tall order.
Maybe you have some believers out there - somewhere.

All of this SP price development stuff on your behalf is pure speculation - so don't talk about "smart money" as long as speculation is involved.

All I can hope for you and your doom stories that you've actually got some followers who read and like your posts. One thing is sure: There are plenty on this board you can count out.

That's the one and only successful attitude and capability you need when investing on AIM:
Expect and react to the - inevitable - changes you are confronted with and make them work to your advantage. Putting the blame on the company is not the way to go; as we all know the company has its own set of priorities most of which are - comprehensibly - unknown to us but certainly in the company's interest.

"I have e-mailed the company...on behalf of the many dejected and disappointed Matad shareholders…".

Schachmeister: If there's one thing you should NEVER do then it's making statements "ON BEHALF" of un-named shareholders or investors which have never given you a mandate to do so .

So - if you express your opinion please do it on your own; it's completely sufficient that you make a fool of yourself - but there's absolutely no need to drag in other investors/posters who don't agree.

Sorry S/M: NOBODY has lost anything! This is a stock exchange. You only lose if you chose to do so!

Wow! Now that is something to write home about. Guess F/R can call it a day - no further worries!
Great job!

is what we are currently seeing/reading from B/H, F/R and the other usual suspects. As I said some time ago, once PM confirms that

- the visas are in place
- the spud date for SL is confirmed; and
- that there's nothing in the way for the other 3 drills to happen this year

(which - BTW - is in accordance with what PM has been saying for months)

the above mentioned posters would come up with other negatives for the purpose of driving the SP down. A creative bunch I must say. Their negative creativity has reached a point which prompts me to wonder what horror stories they will come up with once PM strikes oil.
OMG - GLA

Roger that - agree 100%

GKahn: Yes! Retrospectively that was the best time ever to buy in big time. Nevertheless it was daring and for some time I felt a bit uncomfortable with such an amount. Now I feel I should have bought even more!
Anyway, it appears the LTHs are in a comfortable position to wait for the "REAL" fireworks which should be right around the corner - and much more to come in the next year or so.
I wish there were more of your kind (of investors and posters) around!
ATB

Now that's what I call a sound holding - one that will get you places! I guess we both started around the same time. Luckily I only started to (substantially) accumulate in July/August 2016.
GL to you and all other LTHs!

"gigantic"

at this point are the investors who've been betting on the sp rise to spud. What a shame! I feel soooooooo sorry! That's what you get for betting on so called standard sp movements on AIM.

Anyway, we LTHs will still be around when all the frustrated investors have bailed out; we say "thank you" in advance for your chickening out. I guess it's better you leave the cashing in to those who've got the nerves and balls to see this thru.

investors - regardless of their couleur - will not walk away from this incredible investment opportunity. They are patiently waiting on the sidelines in order to jump in.

Re: Doug McGay: Go and look for yourself - we're not in court here are we? At any rate he sold a substantial amount of his shares @£2 - may not have been "most", but to me it surely looked like it. I know you posters who are focused solely on the sp hate to hear it but it is how it is: With a short term investment horizon and demanding that the mgmt drive the sp you get the management you deserve, namely the one that potentially drives the company down the drain - as experienced here some years ago. Therefore: Think twice before you make respective calls and demands. Tunnel vision can be very harmful. You don't like to wait

I keep forgetting that most investors on this board have an investment horizon of a few weeks (at best). I guess I could just as well talk to my office wall.

ART123 - I understand you don't like to read let alone understand what I post. You are one of those investors who judge management's performance purely on the basis of how well the sp is doing. In case you may have forgotten: This is an exploration company which is focused on being successful - even if the sp needs to take a blow once in a while. You refer to a sp of £2 and call that good. I wonder if you took a look at the history behind it and particularly the aftermath: Doug McKay (CEO at the time) did a bang up marketing job pushing the sp to £2.10 on hot air (or rather water!) - and selling most of his shares at £2. I'm not the only one who would like to see MATD succeed long term. You however, seem to want only one thing: make a quick buck. Looks like Mike Buck's plan does not support that. God bless!

Clearly "all just your opinion" (including all the pent-up frustration as the sp hasn't been behaving in accordance with your derisking plans - we know, we know). Point in case is: PM's short term SP is not the company's focus - thank God! That was the case in 2010/2011 and look where it got PM! I know it's difficult - but don't claim "lousy management" just because the sp - temporarily - isn't doing what you expected it to do. Welcome to the world of AIM investing!

are slowly but surely losing their nerves - and attempting to put the blame on others - kinda funny (and sad)! Great investors I must say - cracking under slight pressure; what a bunch!

even die hard PIs on this board openly display their frustration after months of firm support for the PM cause. Don't get me wrong: My shares have taken the same blow and lost value (on paper). That doesn't freak me out - I guess I've gone thru too many of these situations since being invested (2010). I do understand the negative sentiment but believe me you can't change it by chiming in on the negativity - it will make things even worse. I am here to hold. In 6-12 months time this will look like a minor glitch on PM's charts. Stick with it and don't panic! Don't forget: Last October the sp was <6p!
