brazil, countdown to catastrophe https://www.telegraph.co.uk/global-health/science-and-disease/thousands-dead-country-turmoil-brazils-countdown-covid-catastrophe/if only there was some way to stop the spread, some way to enforce less human contact...

You're playing the nut job lockdown deniers card...still..yawn....

[stansmith3] 02/4/2021 21:46

brazil showing the need for strict lockdowns, even though people making an effort on a personal basis, its not nearly enough and cases are rising in spite of thisnext few weeks will highlight this, will our nutjob deniers put their hands up and admit they were wrong? or will they still play the whatabout you cant prove card?

[backinblack80] 02/4/2021 21:29

Try focused protection....sigh

[stansmith3] 02/4/2021 21:13

yes brazil has more cases than everif only there was some way we could stop people interacting to stop the spreadsigh

[backinblack80] 02/4/2021 21:01

lol...bedwetter. You can stay in lockdown indefinitely, it's your choice. It's not my choice. You filtered me before..remember?

[stansmith3] 02/4/2021 19:52

i see the covid lockdown deniers out in full force...thank goodness for filter..anyway lets see what happens....

Yes the death rate must be taken in context with the rate of infection, it is a very contagious disease. With the ongoing lockdown and about 60% of the adult population now vaccinated we are still getting close to 180,000 cases per month as tested, take into account those infected and not tested it's probably still infecting up to 0.4M per month. So much for lockdown. Notice the Govt never gives estimates of people infected, if they did people would not be so afraid as it seems most of us have had it. It does issue the results of a survey into those carrying antibodies but as these(antibodies)disappear after a few months its only a snapshot in time.

Covid is not considered to be a high consequence infectious disease and has low overall mortality rates.
What does have high consequences are pointless lockdowns...

[fireplace22] 02/4/2021 17:24

It can only get up to ~80% infection/vaccination rate before dying out, just like here aided by vaccine towards the end to get us the last few percent.

llbtrue and reflected by the weakness in the spthis will continue as covid runs unabated through brazilthe president is basically a covid denier anti lockdown nutjob, who has had covid - you cant make it upit could scarcely be worse, the surprise will be if the share price does not fall further

[fireplace22] 02/4/2021 15:25

Last time I looked Brazil looked pretty similar to the UK wrt Covid infections except that it was about two months behind us. It's just going to take a bit longer. Cant comment on the politics.

[laurence llewelyn binliner] 02/4/2021 15:14

Well that is most of south America on the red list for travel, and no direct flights in/out of UK to Brazil, which can only hinder progress on finalising the funding package, and perhaps DD ahead of announcing the off takers too..?

On top of which Bolsonaro has had his senior medical advisor/army/navy/air force chief resignations, my thoughts turn to can or will any of the syndicated banks back track and get cold feet over investing in Brazil now..?

The A/V projects do stand up on their own strengths but has the appetite for investment under the circumstances surrounding them today in Brazil materially changed..? on face value it does look higher risk than it was..?

[stansmith3] 01/4/2021 15:56

craigieand you are more than entitled to itthis is aim and we will only know after the fact if this was a gem or the usual story...

[soundbuy] 01/4/2021 15:39

Oh yes......

[excellance] 01/4/2021 15:28

surely they can give themselves options...??

[soundbuy] 01/4/2021 15:11

Yep.....reckon the BoD have been unable to buy for best part of 18 months

[backinblack80] 01/4/2021 14:02

mesb48, they have unpublished price-sensitive information, so can't buy...

[craigieboy1] 01/4/2021 13:49

I remain very confident in JM and the team to deliver the package, we are seeing the last of the cautious traders and investors who don’t have the faith selling out instead chasing some quick money elsewhere. My own personal view is that with hindsight some will have regrets on moving out. Just my opinion of course.

[mesb48] 01/4/2021 13:36

have been wondering if we'd see any director buying after the results announcement. fingers crossed that 2m buy just now is one. certainly would be good if they were seen to have more invested

[salmonn1] 01/4/2021 13:04

Leaving aside the finance for a moment. David Halls statement re the Company team and situation in Brazil is, in my opinion, very reassuring. It's a difficult situation that they seem to be dealing with in a practical and sensitive way. I expect people in Brazil are worried at the moment about a lot of issues and HZM's presence will be seen as an asset by workforce, locals and municipalities. My hunch is that what HZM and others are doing now in Brazil won't be forgotten. HZM need to do the right thing by the people who rely on them. On the face of it they are.

[stansmith3] 01/4/2021 08:01

craigieboydo give it a restholders are well aware they can sellits always a sign of an UN comfortable holder when they that say to someone with concernsmake your positive case by all means and allow people to air negative thoughts without having to listen to...you can always sell ffs

[soundbuy] 01/4/2021 07:46

Wonder that with the ever evolving battery/EV 'space' and the resulting probable strong inbound interest, HZM are continually re-assessing their options - guess there's always a 'better' deal out there......still.....zzzzzzzzz

[jailbird] 01/4/2021 07:33

Not sure if any further delays due to Covid . Out of their hands to some extent .Sometimes we expect clearer language .The only issue I have with potential delays , is that it impacts cash resources

[soundbuy] 01/4/2021 07:21

Well, later in the year still H1 but obviously more wiggle room......zzzzzzzz
