We would love to hear your thoughts about our site and services, please take our survey here.
Right there with you, Aubrey. There appears to be a distinct and egregious lack of knowledge around here that is frequently presented as fact (only to later be explained away as positivity) than is healthy or appropriate.

Many thanks for your reply. There would appear to be a few gaps in your understanding of how the exchange works and it is regulated.
You may find the following beneficial (notably rules 3000 onward):

Perhaps you could take heart in some of the company’s core values?
Notably the “restless need to find solutions, overcome hurdles and move forward”. Or - if you’re still leery - be reassured by the “uncompromising determination that we will succeed no matter what the challenge”.
The question you’ve gotta ask yourself, however, is ‘are these values simply lip service or, do you see them as a maxim Fraser lives by?

“ Marxist pro remain cobblers !!!”

You losing your intellect along with everything else in that echo chamber, Alan?
As a patriot, I proudly voted to remain. I did so because a strong economy affords us the luxury to care for our most vulnerable. So spare me the Ill-conceived, spurious and fatuous Marxist/remain cobblers. Please. I appreciate that it is patently beyond your comprehension that there is a non-binary world of subtlety, nuance and ambiguity out there, but please, don’t be so blinkered as to assume I’d ever endorse a Marxist anti-Semite.
Any more than you would.

And you’d no doubt be highly unlikely to choose to work alongside them. Fair enough.
However, by accord JoJohnson accepted a position in his brother’s Cabinet. Until ultimately, he could no longer trust his brother enough to continue to pursue the direction they’d agreed upon.
Of course they’re more than entitled to disagree. Trust, however, manifests in knowing they’re playing a straight bat.

“The Nov 2023 8.5%, are the convertibles that are from ST. 1”

The Nov 2023 8.5%, are the convertibles that are from ST.
The May 2027 5% are what they were exchanged for in the first part of ST2 (April).
Rest assured, as soon as any deals are made they will be announced through regulatory sources. I am certain you will not see any detail pursuant to them anywhere open to public viewing beforehand.

Personally, I couldn’t give a toss where he’s posting. I am pleased however that we don’t seem to have heard from him for weeks. Which begs the question: why would you poke a hornet’s nest?

“Yup, the bond deadline is end of October. The september date stuck in people's minds because the rumour mill says that's when we run out of cash.”

Good morning, Cherokee.
No good anyone blaming the rumour mill on this one, I’m afraid:
2 July 2019
Sirius Minerals Plc Q2 progress update
“Comprehensive US$3.8 billion funding solution for stage 2 financing requirements launched on 30 April 2019 and on-track to complete before the end of September 2019”
And further on:
“The net proceeds received pursuant to the Firm Placing and Placing and Open Offer provide the Company with sufficient cash to progress the Project in line with key milestones to the end of September 2019.”
If shareholders are expecting a resolution before end of Sept (notably end Q2 as indicated in other communications), then that timescale is entirely of the Company’s making. If Chris should feel that the sand is running thin, he would be wise to remember it was he who set it running. Tempus fugit.

Hear, hear Max. And I’m so glad you can say it without the message being lost among victim like accusations of pomposity.

Many thanks, barna. Odd that the ‘Market Report’ shouldn’t appear when searching Sirius on The Times site? Appreciate you steering me in the right direction though.

Hi, barna. I take The Times, yet, I cannot find this somewhat depressing article online. Where can I find it, please?
Many thanks,

Good morning, Taufor. I wish I had been available earlier to respond, because you make a good point. The natural conclusion in your illustration is as you say, however, we both know that that wouldn’t necessarily make it accurate. Without any official flag or identifier as stop-loss, such an order could just as possibly be part of an algorithm, layering or spoofing attempt — one that could very quickly be removed from the book should any movement threaten it being actioned. And who’d realistically want to drive the market down to such an order only to find it unable to be obtained? After all, that aggressive selling down to get to such a price could then prove very costly to unwind.
Smoke and mirrors everywhere. Especially when the uninitiated and inexperienced provide such low hanging fruit!

“Also remember that the shorts know where the stop losses are placed“
——
Sorry, Chilting - this is NOT accurate. An understanding of the types of market orders - and how they actioned should be a prerequisite for all market participants. If you’re placing any order, surely it helps to know how it actually works?
Stop-loss orders are NEVER VISIBLE AS STOPS. Should you CHOOSE (as my broker allows) to make your order publicly visible, then yes, it can appear on the order book. However, and this is a key point - IT WILL ONLY APPEAR ON THE BOOK AS ANY OTHER ORDER. There won’t be anything identifying it as a stop-loss.
Secondly, the use of a trailing stop will never become publicly visible. This is because the order is lodged with your broker who will only put it on the book once your conditions of been met. It just wouldn’t be feasible for them to keep entering, amending or deleting your order with the gyrations of the market.
As ever, a lot of rumour and hearsay is being presented as fact when, very often, it is misunderstood or misplaced.
