The timings involved cast doubt/suspicion in my mind. - I was never convinced we'd been told the truth. - The QI statement of maintaining guidance for the full year and then in the blink of an eye that wasn't the truth. - It seemed as though a quick explanation had had to be found for one reason or another. - If memory serves correctly, I seem to recall a similar situation, many years ago now, when, as a result of theft, a company had to issue a cover-up statement, a lie if you like, for the purpose of maintaining stability/trust. -In theory, if something similar had occurred here, then one way of making-up for theft of x oz. of gold would be to announce a reduction, without there really being a reduction, to balance the situation. This of course could explain the suddenness of the altered forecast. - You can't say that's what happened here of course, it's not possible to know, but the similarities are striking.

Since yesterdays RNS re the 58m purchase by Dimensional, the SP has gone south, so I'm figuring that we may have misunderstood the detail.

The company says we've hade some capital appreciation and yield. - The recent fall has nullified the cumulative yield to-date. -

Good morning sparkle. - At the time of posting 1300 has been breached. - I wonder how long it'll take for fingers to be stuck in the dyke. - Or, and I emphasise or, is the force becoming too great to hold back?

Hi flop - That sounds like good news. - Do you agree?.

Well, there's the RNS covering Dimensional's acquisition and it does look like 58m. - Although it's always a mystery to me trying to decipher the content of such bulletins, it does look like 58m. - Let's see what happens tomorrow then. - It's possible that another RNS will follow with details of a major disposal. - Will one cancel the other out? - Any thoughts anyone?

Totally agree. - The whole structure requires a new look and new thinking and the SP should definitely play a part in the overall bonus equation. When you have compared the direction of other miners it highlights most vividly that we are on the road to nowhere. - An expression I used in one of my posts a while ago now. - 'We are in danger as a company of withering on the vine' - However, there always seems to be a rational explanation as to why we are making zero progress. -

Hi Auson - I'm inclined to agree with you. - A purchase of that magnitude is outside of normal market liquidity and would have to be an arranged purchase involving large holders willing to sell surely.- No doubt further news will be forthcoming. - Also, you would expect such a purchase to have sent a few ripples through the market. - If it's true no doubt further news will be forthcoming.

Hi dj - 'One does not keep hinting lower unless they have an agenda.' - Speak for yourself dj. - I am neither shorting it or trading it and I don't have an agenda. - All I have is an opinion and if you check my posts over the last couple of months you will find that my predictions/opinions have proved to be remarkably accurate.

Why is it an opportunity for the fresh investor? - What's going to change to make it so? - All the blue-days that lay ahead, the sunny uplands, we've already had an abundance of the circumstances that give rise to such phenomena. We've had a situation with fundamentals to die for so why are we talking of such things as though they are yet to come. - They've already happened and yet we are where we are. - I agree that rocket-fuel behind the POG is the most likely event that will change our fortunes and if it comes to pass, it will affect the sector as a whole and not be a product of Centamin's making. - I for one will not be taking advantage of the supposedly great buying opportunity that lays before us. I'm sticking for now. There's no doubt that Centamin has far to go, the question is, 'In which direction?'

'Once I built a tower to the sun made of bricks, rivets and lime once I built a tower, now it's done buddy can you spare a dime'. Something like that, the old Bing song about the depression. - Yer have to be my age to remember such things.

I'm not sure and I could be a mile wrong and there's plenty of well-informed posters frequenting this thread who will set me straight if I am. - I can't ever remember the Yanks defending the $1300 level POG with such vigour before. - It's set me thinking. - Is it all about to come crashing down? - Is this the point of no-return? - Defend or die! - Dramatic thoughts I know. mmmm - We'll see.

Don't worry dj it happns to us all. :-) Re Gold - It's looks for all the world that the Yanks are determined to prevent a breach of 1300 with strength.

Hi dj - I'm glad it gives you confidence, I'm not convinced by it. - I see it more as a gesture in the light of what's happened on his watch rather than a conviction buy. - He has just received 900,000 free shares, awarded in 2015 andvested this year. - He was awarded 690,000 free shares in 2016 to vest next year and awarded 440,000 freebies in 2017 to vest the year after. - His freebies for 2018 have yet to be announced, unless I've missed it. - No, I see the purchase of 50k at a depressed price that he holds responsibility for as merely a gesture.

Hi sparkle - I wasn't sure whether you were in play or not and you do perform a good service for all of us. - It's a canny-sized shipment don't you think?

It might be a good idea to get young Parker to visit Sukari and offer some advice. - But for God's sake, keep the Hoffmans away.

Without wanting to tread on spakle's toes, according to flop over on ADVFN, a shipment of 384kg has arrived at Cairo airport.

Hi dj - Hope you're right. - I think holders are hurting enough as it is. - It's the time gap in between the two that has me worried. - The prelims could well be interpreted as additional bad-news by the markets, without taking into account that it is just confirmation of what had already been announced.

The preliminary production results are not going to be good. - You do realise that don't you? - We have already been forewarned by the company.- I'm hoping that when they are announced they are not so bad as to hit us again with a double-whammy.- If they do, we could be flirting with trading as a penny-share again. ( less than a £ that is)
