If you're suggesting that owners of ordinary shares should be given a legal right to ownership in a company, it's balderdash, and it will never happen. Your share certificate is just that, and not a certificate of ownership. Have you ever seen a certificate state you are a legal owner of any description? Nope. The certificate does not convey any rights to ownership nor will it. Also, ordinary shareholders are not explosed to the liabilities of the company, which to a certain extent the directors are, through their fiduciary duties and obligations and for this reason, they carry indemnity insurance. It would mean each and every ordinary class shareholder would have to take out indemnity insurance to cover their backs, which would be a colossal cost, and the reason this is highly unlikely to happen is, that you would have to take such indemnity insurance for each and every company you bought shares in so the insurer could assess the risks of each company separately, and as ordinary shareholders tend to stay invested sometimes for seconds, minutes, sometimes hours, days, weeks, and may be years, the majority only stay in for a very short time, and so it would be nigh on impossible to effect such insurance. Directors have set periods that they hold tenure and that is the very reason why, mainly for indemnity insurance purposes, otherwise indemnity premiums would be sky high. Directors therefore take full control of a company and that will never change. It's up to an individual shareholder as to whether they invest in the company or not, and how long they decide to stay invested, which in some cases, can be just seconds! Directors can't just sell out and walk away in the same way that shareholders can if the going gets tough! The law will not change on this.

Someone very kindly posted a summary of the options as to what might happen if the Newmont Newcrest deal goes ahead, and I can't remember who it was? Can anyone remember who it was please? or could someone post it again? Many thanks.

Thanks for the indepth interview. Anyone notice how Shaun states twice towards the end "the takeover" between Newmont and Newcrest, and he says it quite firmly? he doesn't say proposed takeover! So to my mind, it's happening. Shaun mentions about looking for new acquisitions, so is he avidly scouting knowing that Newmont will also buy out GGP's share in the JV, and he knows what will be in the pot, or is this just a general reference? All to play for, but to me, that sounds like Newmont-Newcrest is a done deal from what Shaun knows!

Where's GrannySnuffer gone? !!!!

REMINDER from the GGP website itself -
"The Company’s flagship asset is the world-class Havieron gold-copper deposit in the Paterson region of Western Australia, discovered by Greatland and presently under development in Joint Venture with Newcrest Mining.
Greatland has a proven track record of discovery and exploration success. It is pursuing the next generation of tier-one mineral deposits by applying advanced exploration techniques in under-explored regions."

I know this is old news, but just reading it again, does anyone think that Rio might come in full on with a JV? Could be very exciting if they do. I'm at a loss why the sp isn't moving upwards based on the last two major rns's!

It was always going to happen, no chance with Eurasia now!
"Asset sales by investors from "unfriendly" countries - as Moscow terms those that imposed sanctions against Russia following its February 2022 invasion of Ukraine - require approval from a government commission and, in some cases, the president."
The sp will slide. I hope most have managed to exit.

so it's the same old same old lot ramping here yet again! Nothing changes!

so which way is this going? MM was supposed to be relinquishing his golden share. With it, it remains that the company cannot be a premium listing on the LSE. It's also stated that if he didn't he would veto any take over for up to 3 years from 2021, so that 3 years isn't up as yet. At best, it looks as though he might relinquish myprotein and the beauty business, and concentrate on the technology side, but it doesn't look as though he'll let the company go per se and it doesn't look as though he might even let anything go yet again, that's why I imagine the market isn't reacting too favourably.

dropped again!

it's sarcasm! Do you not get it? All InIt Morons! Nite.

I remember you from many moons ago! ha ha! How's UKOG going for you? In fact, how are any of your investments going for you? Loser. Off to enjoy my night now. Tarraa!

I posted the short tracker info at 2.21pm now others claim to have found it, lol, what a bunch of plonkers there are here. Infact, it's easy to see through the handles and who is here, and so I will issue a note of warning to any novices, profit is profit, if you've got some, definitely take some off the table because otherwise you will almost certainly lose it. Heed that advice as this is AIM. I took some off the table at just after 4pm. It would have been foolish not to do so, particularly looking around here and noting who is pumping this stock!

it's not about FUD, it's about these two mentioned above who bugger every share they become involved in. See their names and steer clear! They are leeches.

sorry to disappoint, just me, no-one else!

says he (goodtimescoming) who only joined in March! tut tut!

hence why BlackRock are back in, they will make a killing on the fall! Always the same. Learn people, wherever BlackRock or Vanguard or both are involved, be careful.

Unfortunately, I hate to say this, but it does work like that, and I'm not a shorter, nor a trader, but an investor, but time and time again it happens, 99% of AIM companies fail at some point, the market is always spooked by them, the pump and dumpers always win out, and are always the ones who bought en masse at the bottom, pumped it up, and then exited en masse, and let the sp go in to freefall. Time and time again.
