SP down 2% , negative sentiment - yet again! I'm still holding on - just!

Sp lagging, why?

The dilemma for all invested here is when to sell. I agree there is a lot more upside to the sp. We should take at least another 12-month view here.

A reassuring update - thank you.

Following the ' peace ' with Russia, could BP's stake become a valuable asset again?

I'm slightly cynical about whether the discovery is as substantial as reported. If it is as substantial as we are led to believe, why isn't bp shouting from the rooftops? And if so great, why didn't the sp move that much on this specific release of the news? Just saying!

Down 1.25% on the day when silver spot hit new highs, Dollar also down, what is wrong - production data report due 22nd Oct, is bad news?

If you look at the previous price target of 1700 and their revision up to 2600, I would suggest that whatever Berenberg and other brokers say should be taken with a pinch of salt. Given the movement in PM's prices, I would say the upside from here/ near future is considerably higher than their latest revised 2600 guestimate. IMO.

Gold trading over $4000 and silver spot doing wonders, it's a tad disappointing to see how muted the SP response is.

The sp should catch up with the underlying asset of PMs, which themselves are on a fantastic run. Should the increases in prices continue, the current sp could indicate an excellent buying opportunity. IMO.

At current levels, the profit on sales of gold and silver should be filling the coffers. The MM's appear to think the company is not as profitable as you would think it would be at these levels.

Spot prices are substantially trading at higher levels than forecasted in the previous financial statement. Therefore, it stands to reason that profits will surge and make the next financial results mouth-watering. The new CEO possibly ought to make a statement to confirm current trading and forecasts to support the sp as it could be trading much higher given what's going on. IMO.

Multiplier - It's interesting to compare HOC with the other listed silver miner, Fresnillo, on this basis, HOC has some serious catching up to do. With a new CEO in place, there is no reason why an increase similar to Fres shouldn't be on the cards.

The basket of silver miners etf's up 2.7% so HOC underperforms the average miner and given spot prices up plus 1% why, I'm reviewing my holdings for sure.

Closing share prices and settled levels behave very oddly??

Yes, you're right about the issues at Mara Rosa. The negative news was issued in August 2025. Since then, PMs have marched upwards with even more potential appeal going forward. I've taken the view that the negative news was already in the price. Fingers crossed.

Last year's financial results were strong and generally considered to have exceeded expectations. The results were based on an average silver price of around $30 spot, so currently the spot price for silver is much higher as is gold. So it would be reasonable to assume a much higher SP.

Providing the spot price remains at current levels or preferably higher, HOC should have some very impressive forthcoming trading results in March 2026. Currently, entry levels are therefore compelling.

Yes, it isn't very disappointing to see at the 310p level, small investors are keeping the faith with a series of buys. This should prove an excellent entry level in say 6 months.

Given the sp price traded at 3.33 at the end of play yesterday and overnight gains in the silver spot price , its disappointing to see it now trading at 331.
