“I have a lot of respect for people shorting” .... now there we disagree!!!

Faramog I may be completely wrong but perhaps it’s the price you pay for having a large foot in the door of SA Government / Eskom contracts etc. The question is would you rather Bushveld Energy were on the inside ... or the outside. I know which I prefer.

Can you imagine the change in sentiment here if BE win significant contracts as above somewhere down the line. I take this as a very positive step in that direction.

Sometimes the bigger picture is more important than the small detail (and I am not understating a 45% stake)

However this is pure speculation on my part and others may have greater clarity on what this is about.

Agreed Paul. The Bushveld Perspective is an excellent resource and a credit to the hard work of Alfacomp and many other shareholders who have contributed to it. An ideal starting point for anyone wishing to research all things BMN.

Always good to see a shareholder supporting the company they have chosen to put money into.

Let’s just celebrate the fact the Vanadium prices have been rising fir six months, are still rising and seem set to continue to rise through 2021 (hopefully).

One can dance around this news all one likes but which ever way you look at it this is great news for BMN. Production is likely to exceed 4000 mtV this year for the first time at a point in time where profit margins are rapidly rising.

Worth opening the link to see the graphs illustrating the upward trend in Vanadium prices.

Perhaps as important is that the BoD have focussed on upgrading plant to increase efficiency and total production. BMN look like they will be in a position to maximise the benefits of these increasing prices and that is just the side of the business supplying the steel industry.

Add the energy storage business and …..

Vanadium prices have shown a steady upward trend for the last 6 months. Prices in China up around 40% and in Europe around 50%.

Clearly I can’t predict the future but if analysts such as Roskill are correct with regard to strong demand and H2 sees a continuation of these price rises it is quite possible to see Vanadium prices in excess of $50 + by the end of the year. That would generate very significant profit for BMN just on sales to the steel industry.

Just my opinion but based upon facts.

More strong rises reported on Asianmetals in China Europe and USA.

Apologies to everyone on the bb. I shouldn’t have risen to Capa and Coffeecups. I know what they are like so my fault for engaging.

Vandon grow up and be an adult. Take responsibility for your actions. I didn’t get you banned. YOU DID.

You didn’t move away. You were thrown out for being unpleasant, misleading, etc just like tonight.

And here you are using another false identity. Dishonest to the core.

Wow. Capa and Coffeecups get a room together. You both really are something special.

Anyway bully away. I will still be here to frustrate and annoy you.

Now dinner is ready. Enjoy your evening together. You deserve each other.

Vandon take a look in the mirror pal. You were a very unpleasant poster in attitude and full of yourself. You certainly don’t like people standing up to you and I call that bullying.

I have no problem with differing views, but if you express an opinion on a public bb don’t be surprised if it is challenged.

Your earlier posts were rude and insulting and gratuitously so. You chose to intervene tonight in yet another dishonest identity, and targeted those on this bb.

This was your opening post

“ LSE is fully of a handful of angry investors who failed to get out at 48p,and think anyone with an 'opinion' needs to bow down and salute the old guard brigade of Dad's Army before posting an opinion.”

Then this

“ You, knittie, alfacomp are condescending , arrogant t w a t s.”

Then this

“ whilst you are still here waiting to have Fortunes love-child”

Then this

“Regeneration me...Expert102010... JimmySt RogerScrote?”

Immediately rude and provocative. You are just a wind up merchant.

Coffeecups I am neither bitter nor twisted, even about cancer. You could not be more wrong.

I challenge what I disagree with and support ideas that to me seem sound and logical. I strongly dislike negativity especially where unnecessary. It achieves nothing

If you have been unnecessarily negative then you deserve to have been challenged.

Oh and Vandon whilst you have apparently been the big “I am “ successfully playing the stock market and making a fortune, never losing in a single deal, I have had to fight for my life against cancer for the last 27 months, including major surgery and a total of 12 months on rather unpleasant chemotherapy with various side effects.

Perhaps you can find it in your heart to forgive me for being such a pathetic investor by allowing myself to be distracted by a few small health issues and parking my money in what I consider to be a good company with an exciting future, and then concentrating on my battle with C

My two recent blood tests indicate that the cancer markers are rising which may mean big trouble. Today I found out that the feedback from my next scan has been moved back again because no consultant is available, no doubt affected by the pressure on the NHS caused by COVID, from which you have been making huge sums of money and then gleefully shoving that in my face … today of all days.

You truly are an ar*e of the first order.

Oh and Coffeecups so are you for aligning yourself with this unpleasant individual.

Faramog I am neither attacking or defending either the President or yourself. I am challenging the limitation of your question.

Frankly I am a little distrusting of many people in power, including our own Government, and am not naive about what may go on to gain wealth for themselves. This is certainly not limited to SA.

However his wealth was not simply generated when he was a Union leader. His career is far more diverse than that.

A quote:

“ Ramaphosa, who became president last year through internal ANC politics, won a popular mandate as the country’s leader, opening the latest chapter of a career intertwined with the birth of modern South Africa.

When Nelson Mandela walked out of jail in 1990, a youthful Ramaphosa was standing beside him as the world looked on.

It soon became clear that Mandela saw him as a protege, and Ramaphosa went on to lead talks to end the white-minority rule and to help write the new constitution.

But after missing out on becoming Mandela’s successor as president, he instead became a hugely wealthy businessman through stakes in McDonalds, Coca-Cola and in the mining and telecommunications sectors.”

Faramog that is a very loaded question, implying that he was ‘only’ a union leader so being wealthy could only come about through ‘dodgy’ practices.

Now I am not going to make a case that he is squeaky clean. However there is a lot more to his career than union leader. He has also been on the other side as a business man and also a variety of political roles before becoming President. There is no doubt that he is talented and has put those talents to good use.

He certainly did not become so wealthy just by being a union leader. Just research his career. It is quite impressive.

It will do BMN no harm at all if Fortune is on good terms with the President.

Thanks for posting the link Gambit. And huge thank you to BBN for that work.

Wow. If you haven’t read it yet do it now. You won’t regret it!

For those who think getting rid of Fortune is the way forward, read it now. If it doesn’t cause you to rethink ...

Correction. Sorry again.

“ Don’t believe me about the sellers? Then explain the constant large round numbered sells of 50,000 to 100,000 or more. Some could be pi’s of course but over the months this represents very large numbers of shares being sold. Of course one can’t rule out shorting and MM manipulation as additional factors.

Apologies for double post.
