The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring Jeremy Skillington, CEO of Poolbeg Pharma has just been released. Listen here.
In the space of a month we have speculation galore.
The company has 3 weeks to do what they said they would do. They either honour their pledge or they don't. If they don't it has significant reputational damage to those who wrote the 8 February RNS. The damage is not trivial within the investment and business communities and the company management have put themselves in that position. However, let us assume for the time being that intelligent life is still in charge at the company until proven otherwise.
I still feel the company will announce a 2p divi in April with a qualifying date end of this month. Post divi they do share buy backs to support stock price. Once it is fairly stable they try it again in June with another 2p divi. This is not rocket science. The total divi amount is dependent how many shares they can buy back against a base price of 18 or 19p. They update on the buybacks as they do them. It is quite easy to set up all this and should have been done last month. Tony
I have written to HL and they are prepared to take action against Nanoco after 1 April if matters are not resolved as outlined in what the company pledged. I am probably not alone in contacting HL. I copied most of the letter a few days ago. I hope those on other platforms are doing something similar. I can tell you HL is fully aware of private investor frustration with this particular company.
If the CEO and CFO really want a world of trouble a few weeks from now, all they need to is sit on the backsides and doing nothing to show the contempt they have to other people. They will demonstrate that the Board does not care what they do, they do not care about their own professional standards and integrity and the follow on impact to all those with any connection to this company. In the meantime, lets hope this gets resolved.
Sold out and happy with the profit. Will return later when things are less overbought.
Certainly moving up and I believe through a resistance line.
Delivered in the past and I think so again.
No hindsight trades and again I am not the kind of contributor who comes on here and is untruthful. I was astonished that gold was not going down through the floor boards. We could all question whatever you do is real or not and question your veracity, but what is the point and why be impolite. Only stupid people go around doing harm to themselves and other people. Most people who contribute on the Centamin Boards are actually intelligent.

It was a good job I re-entered the trade just as gold took off that I sold in the morning, I added more CEY and HoC at the same time in ISAs and they are together 25% of my portfolio tonight. I was incredible lucky to be at my desk and catching the exact moment it all changed round.
Publican good luck with Hummingbird Resources as you may need it with the Betts family in charge. I would not touch that share with a barge pole. Can not stand Betts. You will find out why soon enough.
A couple of people above have spread doubt on my own investment credibility of late. Just on my trading accountthis year I have 43 completed trades and 2 are on-going awaiting BB completion dates. Of the 43 that are completed 26 trades were in gold miners. 25 trades were winning and only 1 was a loss. Centamin 17 winning trades (+ 347 ave) and 1 loss (£125). Shanta 6 wins no losses (average +3,248) and HoC was 2 wins average £170).
The 17 other trades had nothing to do with gold miners but involved stocks which I had built up 70% free carry levels and I have sacrificed a lot of those free carry gains to safeguard the rest of my portfolio. A chunk of my portfolio has not been traded as I have a longer term horizon on those stocks. Over 13 years I have made several hundred thousand pounds. It does include a few big losses and a few large gains. I do not care if certain people do not believe me, but what I have written is honest. I am also quite happy other people not following what I do as we all have our own research and ways of doing things. Tony
Centamin is earning over $800 an ounce in profits. By any historical measure this should be at least 120p. Double position in Cey and Hoc.
Please rest assured that we are closely monitoring the situation and will actively pursue Nanoco Group Plc for the outstanding payment once it surpasses the designated timeline.
I hope this has been of assistance. Should you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to get back in touch.
Kind regards,
Sam Porter

It was topped off so as not to identify myself. HL have got our backs.
Thanks fellas for your comments.
After a few FED members juiced up gold on Friday we can expect Powell to slam it back down this afternoon. Canaccord came out this morning with the possibility of no rate cuts by the FED this year on Bloomberg which then deflated the precious metal miner rally within minutes this morning. Expecting chart gaps to properly close as we go through the week. London and Asia are gapped out higher on gold charts.
Should mention 8% of the portfolio is in CEY, nice low average and not trading it.

Not everyone can invest and trade your way. I am sure it works for you. I had a go this morning and had to settle for £105 gain on an in and out move. Unfortunately I missed the peak this morning as I had to go to the bathroom. It would have been £900 but HL stop loss is next to useless. I would go nuts trying to use your system. Everybody has to find what works for them. If some folks have a disabled family member they can not play on the screen all the time and the same if somebody had screaming youngsters to contend with. Incidentally some traders do the exact opposite of what you do and avoid trading event days as the London market close can leave people in a mess the next day.
$197M activity costs and $217M budget which I assume takes admin costs into account. What about inflation during the build? Does anyone have the answers or have I missed it somewhere.
Front page protect your cash. Your cash then appears in bright red letters. Also a reminder it is your company in bright red letters also on the front page. Well if it is our company then employ someone above the intellect of a monkey to respond to us when we ask very politely I might add what are you doing with our cash that was pledged to be returned to us. I hope they are reading this as it is well beyond shortly. We are not in the Nanoco or Liam Gray twilight zone.

Just read the ISM report. They have been running down inventories by the looks of it and they noted a winter seasonal factor. Not sure if that suggests a lot of colds and flu. I have been battling with a cold myself for over two weeks. Anyway they ran up gold as the data looks bad but in reality it probably is not the case. Bet it goes higher on next month's read. Tony
Once again Centamin doing sweet FA.
Hopefully HL may get a response as we all get ignored if they do drop a line to Nanoco Ltd. Beyond a joke.

Saturn is a subsidiary to ETC Holdings. Not sure what the link tells us but I share what I found.
I wrote to Eric before Christmas and said this would end up in a mess.
Kees Dekker raised concerns about Luika drilling data and he is widely respected by the gold community and is ex Gold Fields himself. No other offers landed for a very good reason.
The key is what LOAM decide to do. If they start selling it is a huge red flag.
