Given the razzamatazz surrounding the potential here in the money transfer business / its forthcoming listing in the US, etc., it's about time the sp reflected that, especially the latter aspect where disruption to the laborious / more expensive Swift system is envisaged.

Maybe, the founders' voting control is putting peeps off here? Dunno, really - sasa

Yes, the Budget's a fortnight after the Neo's option deadline, so I doubt whether they'd make their decision on that risky outcome... sasa.

What's the point of your persistent negativity on here about CHAR, harrycarter? You're obviously out of it, if you were ever a holder, so why persist in posting at all?

All the LTHs have suffered much over the past few years and most remain locked in hoping for some respite to lessen the agony, so why don't you give us all a break from your malign taunting of those still involved? It's so boring, too... sasa.

Echo that, Warthog4 - the MPs are in the 'broad shoulders' category, too, of course what with their high salaries, copper bottomed pensions, tax - free perks, allowances for this and that etc., yet with so little knowledge of how business works in providing the bulk of our GNP.

The Treasury mandarins who advise them on economic policy issues are invariably of the same ilk, in that few of 'em have ever run anything themselves, in providing employment to others; no wonder we're in quite a mess these days... sasa.

Hi Divi - Collector - have a closer look at SQZ's balance sheet and HBR's forecast FCF is more than sufficient to cover their divd policy.

Both yield around 8% or so but I'm biased, admittedly, being in both for a decent income like you...

ATB in your search, anyway - sasa.

'I haven't found the right stock yet'...

As you like pretty safe high yielders, have a look at SQZ and / or HBR, unless you're averse to the domestic O&G sector.

No advice, of course - just a couple of ideas to assist your quest - sasa.

We'll only know that, Stevo12, (overpayment for the WD assets) when the full benefits visibly accrue to us and it might take a while yet...

Meanwhile, NSS's pointers in this regard support the wide ranging opportunities HBR now has in its favour ; any recovery in energy prices will add much 'grist to the proverbial mill', too - sasa.

I had rather anticipated a delay in moving up to the main mkt could be announced - if it happened, it would likely be due to the further Triton breakdown but now this has been speedily resolved, the positive reasons given, in lieu, eliminate that disappointment...

If the M&A activity Serica's now pursuing proves successful, the news can only enhance our debut - sasa.

Interesting article indeed, drjm - thanks for posting...

The business interests of a luxury lodge overlooking some 3 black rhinos when they're in view, versus a mining operation offering employment for several hundred locals seems an 'open and shut' case to me in the latter's favour but there you go... sasa.

You ain't alone there with your exasperated sentiment, rgbuk - AV seems to be in a world of his own at the expense of us all.

Surprised the Nomad doesn't exert some pressure on him to be more forthcoming with his shareholders, especially regarding this much hailed / important Goantagab ore deal which seems stuck in the Courts by all accounts - sasa.

Thanks for relaying the Berenberg initial coverage / 'buy' rating, sheltie - good to see - sasa.

Echo that comment, BullishAML - sasa.

Agreed, bohercom - it's all very confusing...

AV needs to clarify where Andrada stands in all this right now; have they received any truck loads of ore from the Goantagab arrangement so far? Or is everything suspended pending resolution of the Court's involvement?

'Keeping schtum' about such a crucial development just isn't good enough as it potentially creates a false mkt in the shs and a responsible CEO would want to avoid that happening - sasa.

Occasionally one sees these 'backs' (backwardations) appear, nesty but rarely can you deal on 'em, unfortunately - they're rapidly corrected by the MM's - sasa.

Any poster having my e-mail address, I've just discovered that it's been hijacked, and peeps will be getting some spurious messages from the scammers purporting to be from me, so do ignore them. Am I'm trying to get it sorted out and back to normal shortly - sasa.

"The silence from the company is deafening" re: this crucial development - you can say that again, TDT!

It's bordering on the irresponsible for shareholders being ignored by AV all the time on so many aspects ... sasa.

Yes, the acquisition announced today looks an impressive deal (having just seen the presentation on it) and well timed, too, ahead of some easing of militant Miliband's idiotic NS energy policy in the forthcoming budget, hopefully and the forthcoming move onto the main mkt, assuming that's still on track.

The mkt likes it, too, seemingly, which suggests we'll shortly see 200p + ps which will be a pleasant change! - sasa.

Quite agree, NewK, that any leeway on further drilling activity needs to be augmented by a material reduction in the EPL to incentivise that revenue recovery effort the Govt. now seems so concerned about.

Paying 78% tax on whatever new production is discovered, hardly seems worth the effort, otherwise! - sasa.

Agreed, ShearC - the presentation was lucid and positive with this latest defence order just announced adding to the appeal of this share - sasa.

"It really does all hinge on the Goantagab ore and the new jig" - that was my impression, too, TD2, fwiw - sasa.
