Apple is in talks to buy long-term supplies of cobalt directly from miners for the first time, seeking to procure "several thousand" metric tons of cobalt per year for a period of at least five years, Bloomberg reports.The strategy is designed to buffer Apple's reserves of the key lithium ion battery ingredient amid industry fears of a shortage driven by the electric vehicle boom.

Important thing is the drop in net debt. All things being equal and in the absence of acquisitions there is a good debt to equity valuation transference likely to continue provided EV ratios hold

Recommended 2018 distributions of $2.9 billion ($0.20 per share), comfortably above the minimum $1 billion plus 25% of Industrial cash flows per company policy

Not bad and can only get better!

What a fantastic set of figures. Glassenberg is a very shrewd businessman.

[foxy22] 19/2/2018 14:49

[scoble2] 19/2/2018 13:38

Wednesday's results will be a good one and expecting special dividend. Keep buying

Gutterhead:
Don't think the dates have been published yet. Last year Xd was 11 May and paid on 31 May which is a good guide for 2018.

Go to the Glencore website. Most useful

Toggle, some key dates in the header on this page?

[togglebrush] 18/2/2018 10:38

FWIW from Company website

From 2018, a new dividend distribution policy will take effect, consisting of a fixed $1 billion base distribution, reflecting the resilience, predictability and stability of marketing cash flows; plus a variable distribution representing a minimum payout of 25% of industrial free cash flow.

Does anyone have an idea of dates etc except for 21st February 2018 announcement ???

21 February is the important date.

This is a Day Traders paradise.

Production report foxy22, not results

[foxy22] 02/2/2018 10:03

Results a bit disappointing.... decrease in production?

[creddy] 29/1/2018 18:33

fiver for year end that is. chart is a dream past 18 months.

[creddy] 29/1/2018 18:32

been holding since £1.50, sold half at 3.50 thinking limited upside from there. had £4.00 as target for the rest. now revised to £5. hope I'm not too greedy. dyor.

[gxgxx] 29/1/2018 18:04

£5.50 is now only a 32% increase of todays £4.15 close
£8 is 100% increase and this is feasible if you look at the increase over the last 18 months. The Bunge buy (if) it comes off could have a major positive effect. Even if it doesn't the renewed interest in the health of Glencore will get people clammering for a piece of the action.

[a2584728] 29/1/2018 16:45

I hope you are right. If we get to 550 and I reassess I may stay in or even add. All I know is that for now this is hot

[gxgxx] 29/1/2018 16:16

£5.50 will fly by.

February will be busy and exciting for us.
