tawse57 - are you not bearish on US economy? Surely this is just the start of US dollar weakness, the charts look top heavy still across all major currencies. UK now led by Conservative govt expected to see stronger currency in coming months, despite slower growth... EU bond buying program in full swing with France and Germany benefiting from currency weakness... and energy prices recovering somewhat. US retail data weaker than expected and growth faltering in other areas of the economy

Back on the radar recently, news today seems okay. Sells were 2p less than 24 hours ago, now buys going through to 5.5p at the moment, but that's the draw these low volume stocks are - anyway good chance to shed a few at this price in my view. This company has loans and continues to makes losses so no sign of a quick turnaround. Although todays asset sale strengthens balance sheet in the short term, this is cash that will be used towards monthly outgoings. MAFL are similar except they booked profit in the previous 6 month period of £311k after narrowing losses in the previous period. The market cap is £900k currently with Asset Value of £1.32m and of this a cash position of £663k. Again, both companies quiet for most of the year but now sitting on cash piles after recent asset disposals and talking of making strategic investments or acquisitions From the PRAE interims... "It is likely that contrarian investors will start bargain hunting, which may well prove to be astute from a timing perspective... the worst is now in fact behind us and that a significant improvement in the commodities and natural resources climate takes hold in the coming year."

If one was able to pay to recommend a post, I would push a few 'pips' your way fuzzlightbeer! Far too many sleezeballs on here calling hotshot predictions and the like. Straight forward common sense and informative posts like yours very welcome after a hard slog at work. News today not well received but not really an indicator of anything given low volumes. Maybe interest will pick up once the backroom talks are done, and no doubt there will be interested parties looking to fund this project. Whether they want only a slice of the action or the whole cake remains to be seen :)

Tracking the price of silver nicely :) Not long before £8.00

well done everyone who kept faith! I would definitely be holding after reading the announcement however my sell orders will have triggered I think, currently away on business so unable to trade. Worth selling before this goes ex dividend in my opinion though, take advantage of recent gains and wait for the inevitable clawback. Once this settles it will likely continue to fluctuate with the gold price

Takeover via the backdoor. Redbird are acquiring assets well below par value, the deal clearly organised long time ago. No doubt the BOD will benefit quite handsomely from this, we have after all been supplementing their pay... Disgraceful behaviour, shoddy outcome... the names of the BOD should be blacklisted from future ventures on these markets! All those promises at investor evenings.

Strange all the messages are gone.. anyway hope people are taking positions in GFM, heading for 40-50p range in the next couple of months Zinc could finish 2015 strong, says Stefan Ioannou, mining analyst with Haywood Securities. He estimates that over the previous two years about 12% of global zinc production ceased and more will end soon, ultimately leading to a run in the zinc price in late 2015 and into 2016. The zinc market is an interesting space. Current inventories are still quite high, but they're being drawn down rather quickly. We have seen and are in the process of seeing large zinc mines shut down. Over the last two years or so we've lost about 12% of world production and the advanced-stage projects slated to replace those mines are quite few—not enough to replace what we're losing. We are anticipating a move in the zinc price, probably later this year. Then in 2016 and 2017 we could see zinc prices really run, as in 2007, when zinc rose to $2/lb. Any company with zinc in its name or zinc in its business plan stands to do well. Looking further ahead we anticipate higher pricing will prompt more production, in turn moderating the market. Hence, we continue to use a long-term zinc price of $1.15/lb. The list of projects to replace those mines is almost nonexistent. The market is definitely shaping up for a swing from surplus to deficit. The exact timing remains to be seen, but most estimates are showing the actual inventory pinch point hitting as early as the beginning of 2016. My guess is that market anticipation will prompt equities to move sooner than that, probably in the second half of this year. At that point we could be off to the races on the zinc price. Keep in mind, however, that mining is a cyclical business and if we do see higher prices it's going to prompt new production, namely out of China. Nevertheless, the zinc story appears to be shaping up to be a potentially interesting trade to keep in mind. http://www.mining.com/web/stefan-ioannou-bottom-fishing-opportunities-in-base-metals-especially-zinc/

David Morgan, our Chairman's remarks. A character! Would be more impressed if we had realised share price growth this year. If TMMG is as cheap as we all think it would be better for the company to purchase stock to hold in Treasury than pay a dividend. Come on David, use the funds to support the share price!!! .. - 2014 was a good innings, now let's play a blinder... - It's always gratifying to do what you say you're going to do, so 2014 will go down for us as such a year. - Exciting times in PR. - Phew. - It seems to me therefore that the missiontm had a pretty good innings in 2014. And I'm hopeful that our shareholders and supporters will be bowled over in 2015. Which should be no surprise given the team that we are able to field. - They're all doing a grand job. No lallygaggers here.

Good set of results but a bit of digging reveals a large amount of reported EBITDA is 'profitable accounting' which may explain the weak market response and 1% dividend...

Yes thanks for sharing the presentation. Seem they are upping their game on the corporate side of things, quite enjoyed the diagrams explaining locations and total reserves. Very refreshing! Not sure what else can be gleaned from it except that HGM are focused on their developments and keen to promote the fact. At only £120 million they offer good upside but as trading goes it seems content to move between 34-38 at the moment. The jump to 39-40 a day or two ago looked to be the result of a weakening dollar on the day as all commodities were up. Situation in Yemen could deteriorate rapidly if the big players want a regional conflict. Low oil prices are costing the puppeteers and they won't sit idly by...

Takeover offer announced only a couple of hours after you posted Harry34, timing couldn't have been better!

Completely ignored by the markets, something happening behind the scenes...

Ignore the pundits who didn't call this rise in the first place! Greggs is in high demand and for good reason http://www.iii.co.uk/articles/230647/fast-growing-greggs-overcooked

Looks too expensive, where is the catalyst for future growth? Growing income stream looks priced in, some impressive investors sitting on hands but any one of them could begin disposing at these levels. No signs of any recent institutional buying recently.. Normally you make an informed decision on a stock, but there's no broker consensus here. The only interesting quote was to raising dividend levels from 3.3% now to a more attractive level. Not enough to get excited about if you're a small time investor really

Well I completely messed up with HOC selling too early! Hopped into FRES last week thinking safer of the two and less prone to volatility. Who would have thought silver would jump 9% in a week from its lows! Weak US dollar helped the turnaround, markets expecting this to continue albeit with fluctuations now that the Fed look no closer to raising rates. Not likely until after the Republicans get in and that's assuming they do get into office so November 2016 earliest. In the meantime the dollar remains expensive against the ailing Euro and also against the Yen and to a certain extent the GBP Gold and silver run long overdue... interested to hear thoughts on all this

iii painting a pretty picture but taking a sensible step back from this carnage is the best thing investors can do right now. No bottom whilst oil prices drift lower... http://www.iii.co.uk/news-opinion/richard-beddard/goodwin%3A-short-term-uncertainty-hides-long-term-potential

2.67 to buy £500, no live quotes for £1500+ Last year in March they provided a trading update ahead of the announcement of its audited results for the financial year, normally released in June) Now disposed of MobilityOne Indonesia which made a £218k loss in the year ending 31st Dec 2012 Despite balance sheet losses, the cash position continues to grow, asset value increasing whilst liabilities were reducing. Tightly held stock with over 67% of shares not in public hands, less than 35 million floating around...

Lots of upside priced in at £70m+ now but who knows where this will go if the UK economy continues to pick up, property prices appreciate, investment turn-arounds increase etc. Interest rate rise decision in the US expected in the next 3 months. UK rates will follow suit, albeit 6-12 months behind and that would be a good time to sell. Otherwise ride the wave
