Hi Pushme - My understanding is that he wasn't expressing his opinion, of which you are clearly disdainful, but rather confirming a coming event. - The $1532 reset is, I think I'm right in saying, a figure calculated by JP Morgan analysts.

According to AM, from April 19 under the edict of the Basel111 2017 agreement, gold will be re-monetised and be classed as a tier 1 asset for the purposes of bank-reserves. - As a consequence physical-gold price will become the price-setting instrument as opposed to futures which will drop-out of recognition. - The affect on POG will be dramatic (he says) with a reset price forecast at $1532.

The bugle will shortly sound truce, leaving the weary to sleep and the wounded to die.

Helluva battle raging on the 1250 border!

Hi- - mizolgit, you might have. :-) If it breaks 1250 with strength and holds, daz'll have to be restrained, tied down I think. - Although, I have a distinct feeling he'll somehow break-free.

Hi daz - Very close to 1250 now!

Hi - chasing butterflies again! :-)

Oh! - I forgot to mention the dividend in my appraisal.

If you take the 'Cliff edge' precipitous-fall of last May out of the equation, that was when the set-back announcement was made, and reconnect the dots from there, yes we would still have been down in line with rest, but to the level of around 130p. The generalisation that all miners are down doesn't present a true picture. For a start, not all miners matched-up to the powerful fundamentals that Centamin displayed. Namely, No debt, un-hedged, cash-rich with positive free cash-flow. In other words, fundamentals to die for, and boy did we die, well, not quite maybe. But by my calcs. 130 is where we should be and where we would have been without that 'Killer announcement' in May.

Hi mizolgit

Interesting what you say about plants. - I've held suspicions for a while now that our ranks could have been infiltrated. - Mind you, it could be that I'm just being paranoid.

Hi bardill

I don't mind being heckled actually. - The board has been pretty quiet in recent times so anything that adds to both content and entertainment is very welcome. Obviously, I'll fight my corner and defend as best I can and hope the exchange will result in enlightenment, entertainment and a bit of fun. God knows we need it. - So come on guys, brush the contradictions and insults off and get stuck in. We'll remain friends afterwards. - I promise. :-)

Well you're not a holder are you daz? - I mean anybody that exclaims about a 1/10th % movement can't be a serious holder. - You must be jumping around like a grasshopper trying to pick-up the odd £5 here or there. - That's not a holder in my book. - Apologies if I'm misreading the situation.

The self induced state of Nirvana will sadly be only fleeting.

You guys must be using calculus as the basis for your excitement in the movement of price.

The facts will tell the truth here, not opinions. So, we haven't long to wait for the truth to be told. - We know what we've been told and what we've been led to believe. - According to dj they have said that we're back on track. - Lets hope so. It'll give everybody a boost. - Not long now for the truth to air it's voice. After the truth is revealed, opinions might change one way or the other.

The big question is why. - I'm putting my money on 'Trouble at t mill'

Hi mizolgit. - Of course your opinions are important on here. - Your points usually contain a degree of subtlety. It would be good, would it not, if it all came out well in the end?

Just a further point. - I seem to recall Lord Whatizname expressing a confident view that t&c's would change. - Now there's a thing!

Hi Cowichan, I'm just wondering, if the new proposals eliminate production-share, the terms and conditions under which the carpetbaggers took a punt, and then they are allowed to keep the concessions under the new terms, that will surely be an outrageous state of affairs. - Centamin, who have played a straight-bat throughout in every aspect of their dealings with the Egyptian Gov. will come out of it on the wrong side, as per usual. - Unless of course they wouldn't have bid anyway for these particular concessions, even under the new terms..

Hi dj

There's something that doesn't stack-up in my mind today. - For me it's one of two things.

Either it's Blackrock et al adjusting their holdings through disposal.
Or, Leaked information re further problems at the mine. -
If I'm right I hope it's the former.
