Has to be the natural buy now. Evraz have just shone a huge spotlight on their vanadium resource and prices are clearly going to squeeze.

I agree Lewis, all ducks are being put in a row. Jones Intl/Bacchus, US state department and EU, completely dried up newsflow and Comms barring the bare minimum required, TR1 holders sat at low SP doing nothing but waiting. This is exactly the kind of setup that leads to a buyout. Shareholders being coerced and coerced into selling at low prices. Every tactic in the book to put off buyers. Trading 40% off highs with no volume. We shall see, but I am leaning towards that outcome also.

All the signs are there.

The fact that the EU, US state department and JL are involved is all unreal for an aim jr. The fact things are so close to fruition and the SP is being continuosly dragged backwards is no coincidence. 38p when it wasn't this close! That's really why aim has the poor reputation it does, it's complete BS to have made this much progress and be this low. It seems so out of kilter with reality for the company and the strategic importance of the assets.

I suspect there is a buyout on the cards given the Jones Intl role. Quite common for a share to be smashed like this in those circumstances.

It's also very very poor market making too. Having a published spread like this and a live spread you could sail a yacht through, is simply the opposite of what their job is - IE making a market.

Does anyone actually know who the seller is? Surely it would be better for the company to try and arrange a transfer into a TR1 holders hands etc. This seems nothing but a recipe for getting a poor return on your shares OR deliberately holding the price back.

Cash contracts are $50000. This should be trading nearer 10p.

Both significant rallies today. MKA's time is near.

Looking marvellous at the moment. What a run

Fair points MB. This is all very odd though. The market makers could easily stimulate buying volume by closing up the ask and the bid. It really is curious why they are just setting up a spread that is basically shutting down trading completely. Their job is to make a market and that is the polar opposite of what they are doing. There must be someone who gains from this.

I think we may be about to see the stalemate end. Spread has just been brought much closer for the first time in days.

The near 8% real spread tells you all. Any sellers instantly locked out. No chance of getting back in under 24p with enough of a discount to make it a worthwhile trade any time soon.

Brilliant to see the rise today. It's definitely been coming.

I did say....

It's to put off buyers and encourage sellers.

Tin is at all time highs again. All contract prices are over $45,000. We could see $50,000 prices next week or the week after and people who missed selling at the highs are still selling in the 6.6's. Typical retail.

Now is the time to be buying back in not selling but that's exactly why retail get nailed again and again.

Near 10% spread on live prices. Come on MM's you are supposed to make a market, not stifle it completely. Very poor.

Up 3.3%

UK markets should bounce tomorrow if overnight news isnt horrendous.

MB it's just my opinion of course, but no one with any significantly sized holding is selling. Newton finished adding on Feb 20th/21st according to his TR1. SP hit 28.95 on the 22nd. Geoghan in November when the SP hit the 30's.

The only people that will lower the SP are PI's capitulating. The MM's have set this up for that exact reason. People are most bearish and can be most easily pushed to sell at the bottom and most bullish at the top. Just how it goes.

Rbw is currently down 2.97%. MKA 9.43%. it's as clear as day that this is being manipulated.

The MM's are basically offering a bed for people to wet themselves in at 24p. They have manoeuvred the SP down on no volume and are now saying to people if you really want to give your shares away, here's a really terrible price we have now opened up at and we will gladly take them off you. Notice how the bid is 24p but you still can't actually buy anywhere near that. It's a defensive move akin to walking round with a bin and asking people to empty their wallets into it. I get how annoying it all is, but the 500k buyers and TR1's are the real story. Not a low volume shake out.

Todays events are making the West come together and question its reliance on China and Russia. That follows Bidens announcements on REE and will bear fruit for MKA.

One thing to note today for shareholders. This move down has been done on almost no volume at all. So 99% of shareholders including ALL of the large holders are not selling.
