Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
Well, there was a rather large after hour trade - but not in the direction I expected. I just hope the seller regrets his/her action in the short term. (Unless it’s conspiracy theory time again - Blackrock perhaps? Only kidding)
And between 16.15 and 16.29 there were 30 trades, all but 4 of them A trades. UT will be interesting News coming?
Meantime they burn the planet mining the darned things. Oops, O/T but some things need saying.
I’m really happy I filtered Quady. Just a pity I haven’t the energy to filter all the idiots that continue to keep him amused.
Interesting, but way O/T. I’m more concerned with views on what’s going on with Solg. Today has been yet another where the total number of shares traded is so low it’s almost unbelievable. Furthermore, at a point when buys outnumbered sells by almost 10 to 1, still the sp was going nowhere.
The “strong buy” was the UT. A reflection of the imbalance between buys and sells over the day. The MM’s certainly squeezed everything they could in their efforts to hoover up shares on the cheap. Bodes well for the future.
Quady, you’re not the only one that’s been here since 2013. The difference between us is that I don’t spout endless cr..p (and your posts outnumber mine by a factor of at least three orders of magnitude). This BB has gone so far downhill of late that for the first time I’m using the filter button. A shame as I appreciate the varied views, and occasional words of wisdom, from the many contributors.
I’ll still look in from time to time but I’m really looking forward to seeing every other post filtered. Just a pity there isn’t a way to filter “contains the word Quady” as I’ll still get all the ridiculous arguments from those that rise to your endless poisonous bait. Goodbye Quady. I wish I could say it has been enlightening to read your posts.
Meantime I am hanging on to my holding and looking forward to the £1 party and the £2 tee shirt
Thanks Colonel. Always appreciate your views - one of the more knowledgeable posters here.
Somebody (or somebodies) are now hoovering up anything that’s available. I don’t have access to L2 but input from Col Drake would be appreciated at this point.
Any significance that the 700k buy was an A trade? Is somebody out there ready to pounce?
Grim, I think you are missing the point here. Oreinspiring is simply highlighting that the push for a hydrogen economy has two major options (blue and green) one of which fails the “net zero” test. It’s not a case of giving a sermon, simply stating the facts - green hydrogen (produced using renewable electricity) can be carbon net zero; the manufacturer of blue hydrogen creates more CO2 than simply burning the natural gas, from which it is derived, in the first place.
Simples answer. LSE can be hopeless at times. Every other platform shows closing price as 30p
Gold at $20,000? That’s made my gold filling a decent investment :)
Exactly my point - lithium batteries, not cobalt batteries.
Magnesium might be a better bet than lithium. It’s a bit heavier but it does carry 2 spare electrons to lithium’s 1.
Perhaps you are an electro- chemist Quady as well a£ an expert in everything else.
Batteries are so inefficient they don’t make any sense. They are extremely heavy and a fully charged battery weighs the same as a fully discharged battery. Hydrogen (like petrol and diesel come to that) takes its “fuel” (oxygen) from the atmosphere- it does’t have to carry it around as excess baggage. The after effects (water vapour) is similarly expelled to the atmosphere. Win, win. The sooner our leaders wake up to the fact that we need to pursue a hydrogen economy if we are to exclude petrol and diesel cars by 2030 the better (and either way, a budget of £4bn is cloud in the sky).
Quady, obviously it will come as surprise, but the main ingredient of a lithium battery is, err, lithium (if you exclude packaging, organic solvents, polymer separators, etc). Cobalt is a relatively minor component of one of very many versions of cathode. Same goes for nickel. And manganese.
If I were a betting man, and being up to my armpits here I must be, I would not put money in lithium batteries . Hydrogen sounds to me like the way to go. (Still needs copper in abundance)
This is hardly “new news”. Colloidal silver has been used as an anti microbial agent for years and copper works in a similar way. Has no effect on viruses unfortunately.
Of course it’s a tree shake. Can’t call it a bloodbath when buys are at the same volume as sells
This has all the hallmarks of MM’s shaking the tree and hoovering up shares on the heap. Could be there are some huge orders waiting to be filled behind the scenes
Who thinks he’s logged onto the wrong BB? I had to check I was on SOLG and not GGP. For goodness sake guys, give it a rest.
