I gave up on this a while ago. No point selling my holding as it's worth sod all now.
The only thing that will rescue the SP now is selling the assets to a company capable of mining them or getting rid of the useless old goat of a chairman. Hopefully this will end Colin Bird's career.
I don't see why it can't come good.
Stock market history is full of companies that lagged for years and then made good profits for shareholders.
Petropavlosk was the worst share on the London Stock exchange for a decade and then presented an opportunity to make serious money. Of course it was then ruined by apalling management and finished off entirely by the war in Ukraine.
Greatland Gold was also a donkey before proving very lucrative.
My patience was sorely tested by Sylvania Platinum and then I made a fortune on it.
I'm not blindly loyal to BZT and with the market in general showing signs of an upturn something needs to happen soon, but with the assets here I'm still hopeful.
My buy yesterday went through as a sell. I suspect the same thing has happened today.
Normally the spread on this is wide, but on level 2 it's showing as 6.5%. In reality it's a lot lower than this, so if anyone wants to top up, now's a good time.
And yes, some news would be good, but I've got my optimistic hat on.
Having read the full interim report there's nothing that wasn't already known.
But the situation with Caerus is odd to say the least and needs a speedy response. It's difficult to see how that partnership can survive after what's gone on today.
Smiller is right. There's real credibility problem here. It's name is Colin Bird.
XTR is bombing today. I took my profits there very quickly a few weeks ago. One of the reasons: Colin Bird.
JLP has also stalled.
Of course market conditions play a part, but when a chairman isn't trusted it's a drag on the SP.
After 5 decent RNSs the share price is substantially lower than it was. I still hold BZT but it's going to take something special for the SP to move in the right direction. I'm not not hopeful.
Bring on the abuse.
