Well, Tgkg, someone is losing big money on this, & real fast too.
I don't think CAML will go bust, but the bottom was falling out of the minearls market last week. Glad I sold out then.
Even felt sad at selling a LTBH, but it only proved the saying:

"NEVER fall in love with a share".....

Crikey. Getting battered here. Cu price has taken a bath though

Large purchases this morning, who is putting so much money in it? Do they know more about contracts with government??

[tgkg] 12/3/2020 07:49

Government is now in need of more copper with the new budget, looks like central Asia will be if from it massively,

Very profitable company, they are in kazachstanand Macedonia, nothing to do with China, so staff are safe, production is increasing, they are paying high dividents in a minute

The divi will be announced alongside our results on the 1st

FWIW I am penciling in 7p

Copper price revised up ??? Someone has been smoking crack.

[johnhelme2704] 07/3/2020 16:23

good point well made lol

[bubblingup] 07/3/2020 11:03

jh2704, thanks I think the 23rd is very likely. Sorry for nit-picking, I guess it's because... I'm a nit-picker :0(

LG, Thanks I hadn't realised that, good to know!

All stocks go ex-div on a Thursday, so I'd say that you were spot on :-)

[johnhelme2704] 07/3/2020 10:05

both Thursdays if that is anything to go by...so if I had to bet money...Thu 23/04/2020 ???

[johnhelme2704] 07/3/2020 09:57

on the LSE bulletin board in the Financial Calendar.

But that was 2019 so my apologies....25/04/2019

In 2018 it was 26/04/2018.....

[bubblingup] 06/3/2020 20:40

jh2704, where did you find that ex-div date? You may be right but I don't think we'll know until the 2019 results are announced on 1 April?

[bubblingup] 06/3/2020 20:09

It ain't time till the dead cat sings. Hope that helps.

[johnhelme2704] 06/3/2020 19:08

26th april is ex div date...so if you want the dividend before then

[fardels bear] 06/3/2020 18:04

Trouble is, when is the time to buy?The cash is burning a hole in my pocket but I've learnt to ignore a dead cat. I hope.

[wassapper] 06/3/2020 16:26

Way over done drop in the price.CAML has secure buyers for its products and has weathered far worse in terms of Cu price and still paid a great divi. There will be a time time to buy.

[fardels bear] 04/3/2020 15:37

As long as her maidenhood was not the primary consideration I reckon I could swing it.

[arf dysg] 04/3/2020 15:18

Fardels Bear, would your wife like it if you grabbed a maiden?


I am also pondering grabbing more of CAML.

[petewy] 29/2/2020 13:41

Diolch yn fawr Arf Dysg. (Still learning gorau)

[fardels bear] 28/2/2020 21:42

The div on this is so good now I'm even considering ignoring my wife's :advice: on this and taking a maiden holding.

[warranty] 28/2/2020 20:02

Don’t have any stress levels Arf and if the press didn’t produce these “scare” stories, share price prices wouldn’t drop and we wouldn’t get bargains like CAML!

We have had many financial crises. Unfortunately, this one is caused by something real, i.e. not just dollars and cents: this is caused by illness and deaths. That is something to mourn.


However, the world's markets will recover. Let's thing about what REAL things are happening:


The cows will continue to munch grass and produce methane, entirely untroubled by the yield on Spanish bonds. Bees will continue to fly and pollinate flowers, not affected in the slightest by the level of the FTSE100 index. The wind will blow and wheat will grow in the fields, without needing any help from the European Stability Fund or the International Monetary Fund. Therefore, we shall have bread, and butter, and honey. Maybe even beef. Your houses will probably NOT fall down overnight and will still protect you from the wind and the rain. People will still sing and play musical instruments. They may even dance.

Last time we had a bad crisis, at the end of 2008 (i.e. Lehman Brothers went bust), the world financial system just changed the rules (it was called a bailout). We, the human race, INVENTED money, so we can re-invent the system if it isn't behaving properly.

So turn off the radio, turn off the TV, stop reading the newspapers, and ignore those excitable and (let's face it) very annoying journalists who want to SELL you an exciting story. Open the window and listen to the birds singing. It will reduce your stress levels no end.
