Don't you get all these unsolicited emails and texts of attractive single women around the world who would simply love to get to know you??

[dexdringle] 08/4/2023 13:07

Book5, the only news from the village is that its idiot is most likely off tobogganing in San Moritz 🤣

Apparently not to be touched with a barge pole by the ones in the know. What's the saying ; if it tastes like s..t and smells like s..t, then it really must be sh..t.

The proof is that the share price defies what it would be if the company was operating in any other jurisdiction.

Agree Fear and greed very frequently govern small stocks well away of fundamentals. I will add the top brass frequently mislead the markets.
But successful investors usually look to big caps and let the investment sleep for decades and pass the inheritance to the next generation.
Playing aim usually takes away ur life and savings, and part of ur children future
We are being very lucky here bcs the gold run and calibre share carries on upwards, otherwise we would be at 15p or lower. Manager are so far ver lucky, this is the tie rising the boats, and not cnr effort. There are rumours Chinese are out of the race, ie they are not interested . We are not clever but a puppet of the market.
I sold some and bought calibre instead, which in my view it is almost certain it will buy cnr, and probably on the cheap (ie even $80 million would be cheap in calibre shares at their current lvl)
Who knows may be even our directors are buying calibre knowing what they know, if I could look to JM trading account I would know for certain, but I don’t. Certainly non of the directors, except JM, has bought any significant amount of shares during the last few years. Now call them stupid for not having bought any at 15p, that is what u are suggesting some here are. Many good old contributors to the lse board are gone bcs MC did not buy any share on last capital raise when Nicaraguan shares were hammered, call them stupid too?
Even JM demanded 2 warrants per each share he bought at 15p…+ some high interest rate….may be u could call him a lucky “investor̶1; or better something else?

Best wishes

This last comment really sums it up – there is a club here and I am not in it. I will leave you to it.

Zangdook,

To oversimplify things by way of making a point, there is too much emphasis on ‘playing the man and not the ball.’ What do I mean? Well, the ‘man’ is a loose reference to the BOD, senior management and so on and the ‘ball’ is how the markets work (they and not independent variables, but I am not going to unpack this here).

Unlike classical ball dynamics however, the rule set or governing laws change with time regarding the markets. I will give you an example where I was completely wrong footed. Prior to the last election in the USA I took ‘strategicR17; trading/investment positions that did not perform well, to put it mildly! I simply had not factored in the level to which the ‘senior management’ of the central banks and governments around the world would flood the markets with ‘created money.’ Now I could have taken the position that central bankers, government officials and so on are incompetent fools and found a group that would listen to my moans and groans or, as I did, spend all my cognitive energies on how the ‘rules’ have changed. This was not an overnight adjustment but took a number of months to get a handle on. You may well say “this has nothing to do with CNR.” I can see this is a reasonable position to take when your focus is on ‘company to company,’ but that is where, fundamentally, we will differ. It’s not that I am right and you are wrong, far from it. In any event, it’s time to move on and as I have said before, I wish you well and best of luck.

PS I was responding to your non-edited statement, although it doesn't really affect the above.

30p sure seems to be a tough nut to crack. GLA.

[zangdook] 06/4/2023 14:26

eh?
I'm not attracted to AIM.

[sharenotes] 06/4/2023 14:07

Zangdook,

You make very reasonable points, but you still don’t get it do you? If you were attracted to AIM to make money then there have been opportunities here to make said money, period. I truly wish you well on your crusade – best of luck.

[diggybee] 06/4/2023 07:53

They say there is gold, statisticallyAlthough we don't own the land, realisticallyYet we have a rusty mill But our management are shillsSo where are we left, holistically?

Not entirely through ur own fault

In comparison with many aim listed companies cnr has not done too badly, at least so far. You could have done much worse than investing in cnr, I have suffered a bad example with black dragon gold. A gold explorer company in north Spain with very high grades and largest gold reserve in Western Europe since Roman times, but apparently suffering from environmental concerns , fortunately in that one I only have a small bet.

Expensive lessons for me: Aim (where problems are hidden from investors), and potential rich mines on protected environments are minefields.

I know of one case in Armenia where a mine in construction phase was closed down by the government, the cause , from memory, something to do with water and …

I know of another mine in Brasil that was closed down during the tunnelling due water ingress, we almost lost all our bet on that one, I run away before it went bankrupt.

I know of another company (Katanga) where shareholders were wiped out bcs the cobalt and copper had radioactive traces on it! Shocking if u consider Glencore was involved, and mine had been in production for years. we lost all our bet in this one.

So there are examples that show that risks are always there in all phases during the life of a mine.

Eua is another example,I am positive it will disappear after reaching one billion market cap, that one could well end up being the largest fraud/spin in aim, ie nothing to do with environmental concerns but with low grades and very deep in the ground reserves

Lessons be prudent to diversify, don’t be too greedy, or too afraid of cutting losses and run

Best of luck

Good post cegamer I am equally frustrated and have stated so as well as being significantly down on my investment through my own fault. I sincerely hope that we have turned the corner in a positive way for all investors. GLA.

[corrientes1] 05/4/2023 17:22

I always hope to be proved wrong when I see an investment performing poorly, but sadly so far in this particular case, I'm not.

In term of results over a lengthy period, All the INTELLIGENT chatter here has proven to be no better than the 'mindless rubbish', but that's simply a reflection of the incompetence of the directors. Don't know whether this long-running state of affairs is simply bad luck or a deliberate policy to keep the salaries rolling in.

[cegamer] 05/4/2023 17:03

The sentiment between here and LSE has literally switcharoo'd.

ADVFN was the place for constructive and informative discussion. Got to say, Corri and Zan, you do massively drag down the quality of the chatter here with mindless, non-contributing negativity. I have my off day, don't get me wrong. But you guys must live for the misery!

I'm happy with our current trajectory.
I'm almost certain we're looking at over 225m.
I'm ALSO certain that the 2 negative Nellies on this board, are spewing hot air.

[corrientes1] 05/4/2023 14:25

I expect the boss has gone skiing. After all he's got to do something to pass the time of day, while the pretence of a sale, beneficial to most shareholders, continues.

[sharenotes] 05/4/2023 12:39

zangdook,

I concede that ‘weird’ is not the best choice of word to describe the attributes associated with survival, but when observed in a public theatre and millions are at stake, it doesn’t always resonate with normal experiences. I am in no way making excuses for such behaviour; it’s just that I have seen it manifest in many forms.

Unless you are a unique individual, I assume you were attracted to AIM to make money? Along the way, you may have been influenced by a sales pitch or two and paid a heavy price. If not, then you are very fortunate indeed. Notwithstanding, I don’t really have a dog in this fight and if your are making money on AIM then you are in quite rarefied company – if you are making significant amounts then you are truly an outlier. Statistically, these are the facts and moaning about this and that won’t change things in that regard. Here’s to a good day.

[zangdook] 05/4/2023 11:18

sharenotes - The point is not about ooh, AIM is dodgy, weird stuff happens. It's very specific to this company. The CEO is a serial liar and bungler, and the Chairman has a track record of running companies into the ground or, where by a miracle that doesn't happen, diverting the proceeds to his next adventure. But as I say, if you think discussing this is merely clouding the view with "negativity", by all means count the gold in the ground and rub your little hands together in anticipation.

[corrientes1] 05/4/2023 10:26

and of course combined with some local issues and no mining operation after all this time, I rest my case.
