R375million debt facilities secured

MadasaHat, fair point, but I'd like to think that FM trusts YD not to sell any volume at this low price.

It could be another major player selling down IMO eg tame seller, MM, shorter, etc

I do know this tho - it's bloody frustrating!! ;-(

"The shares issued to Yellow Dragon are subject to a 6 month lock-in arrangement and a further 6 month orderly market arrangement which are subject to certain exceptions and may otherwise only be waived with the consent of the Company's brokers."

Check this out, I think I want one!

Nice find daitom esp the part about our BESS under test at Eskom

Sanchez - snap! :-)

I wonder if his speech today was based on the draft 2018 IRP? That would be even more embarrassing

Gweedy too busy digging for unobtainium :-)

Slowly slowly catchee monkey...

Keep this rate of increase up and we’ll be past 30p before the end of the month. After the last year, I’d take that!

Disappointing to see the 100k sells are continuing, seems like our tame seller isn’t quite done yet but they must surely be nearing the bottom of the barrel by now

"On Wednesday night, UCT professor Anton Eberhard, a member of President Cyril Ramaphosa's task team on Eskom, tweeted that cabinet approved the Integrated Resource Plan and that it will likely be gazetted on Friday.

The IRP will outline details on SA's future energy mix, and could include the decommissioning of coal power stations and the growth of renewable energy. It is expected to be based, largely, on a draft plan published for comment in 2018"

Ol' Gweedy is on message again in this latest article.

Excerpts:

"Wind energy can be a massive game-changer, as recently reported by sector experts. The Southern African Development Community (SADC) alone has the potential to build 18 GW of wind by 2030, the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC) estimates. This is a third of the region’s current power pool."

"SADC’s wind energy manufacturing potential goes beyond producing towers, components and blades. There is a massive opportunity in developing an energy storage industry, too. An added benefit is that it will, directly and indirectly, boost other key sectors such as mining, a key economic driver across Africa.

“With our abundant platinum and other mineral resources including rare earth elements, we must invest in research and development programmes based on hydrogen fuel cells, and battery storage, amongst others,” Mantashe said."

(NB The Southern African Development Community (SADC) is an inter-governmental organization headquartered in Gaborone, Botswana. Its goal is to further socio-economic cooperation and integration as well as political and security cooperation among 16 southern African countries.)

Gweedy Mantashe has said that the IRP is due to go before the SA Cabinet today for approval, and here is a quote from Mantashe re: battery storage:

"... and when it came to renewable energy, it was critical to invest in battery storage as well."

Dammit, timings everything lol

A very generous upward movement I thought

And there's part 3 of the triplet:

14-Oct-19 14:06:34 20.90 1,000,000 Unknown* 20.80 21.00 209.00k

Raz put a space in the link somewhere, that usually works

And none more parasitic than that idiot! Anyway, that's enough of my time and energy wasted on this piece of garbage, so now I'll just slip back into the shadows again..... ;-)

= Market Makers Manipulation

You just couldn't script it, a buy of 2,300,000 shares and 30 mins later we go red on sells of just 150,000. Seriously?

Another novel invention but this one generates light from darkness. It’s at a very early stage and I don’t see it becoming massively useful for many years, if at all. But it’s an interesting read:
