yes, bad start today for mining stocks . RIO chart is not the easiest to read but seems to still be uptrending and maybe will get to about £38 in next few months . But I still think that RIO in USA is lead market and maybe that is the chart to follow .
But RIO is mainly a trading stock

Now wait for 6 more month b4 this heads back up again lol( short term turned long term)What was that christ, Rio being better then a bank .lolJust imagine the frustration of those who bout in at 36 plus on the strong recommendations of christh the looney

[christh] 14/8/2017 13:38

see the break out to £34.40 coming up now

waiting for the US to open up

[christh] 14/8/2017 13:11

Wait and with a bit of patience you will see it heading to £35 this week.
It might start going upwards to £36 gradually as the commodities becoming dearer.
The price of gold will have helped Rio along with the price of iron ore.

So a Buy opportunity for those who can have patience.

Remember £35 is the next step.

RobrahIn in the morning and out on the afternoon with profit.

[utyinv] 11/8/2017 18:57

Robrah,

Why are you so negative about Rio? Are you shorting the stock? I appreciate Christh ramps a little, so what? It shows he is enthusiastic and supports the Company, its what I would expect from somebody who has invested hard earned money into the Company.

Likewise, if you are trying to throw a little caution into the equation, great! But why so negative about one person's view? I read posts and sometimes I disagree but just smile to myself as it is sometimes not worth a comment if it can be taken wrongly.

I am not preaching nor wanting to offend, so sorry if it comes across that way I just hope that all the rhetoric could be stopped. I like it when you post and then support your opinion with info.

Everyone needs to make their own mind up when investing and DYOR. However, there is never enough info and points of view are welcome to get a better picture of the situation.

Cheers 👍

[robrah] 11/8/2017 17:35

The company has incredibly impressive growth projects. Two of the company's three largest growth projects are anticipated to grow revenue by billions when they come online.

Rio Tinto has been aggressively paying back debt. These debt paybacks mean that the company the company saves cash on interest expenses.

Rio Tinto plc (Symbol: RIO) has been named as the ''Top Dividend-Paying Rock Stock'', according to Dividend Channel , which published its most recent ''DividendRank'' report.
The report noted that among shares of companies in the minerals and mining space, RIO displayed both attractive valuation metrics and strong profitability metrics. For example, the recent RIO share price of $46.16 represents a price-to-book ratio of 1.6 and an annual dividend yield of 4.77% - by comparison, the average stock in Dividend Channel's coverage universe yields 3.6% and trades at a price-to-book ratio of 2.3. The report also cited the strong semi-annual dividend history at Rio Tinto plc, and favorable long-term multi-year growth rates in key fundamental data points.

The report stated, '' Dividend investors approaching investing from a value standpoint are generally most interested in researching the strongest most profitable companies, that also happen to be trading at an attractive valuation. That's what we aim to find using our proprietary DividendRank formula, which ranks the coverage universe based upon our various criteria for both profitability and valuation, to generate a list of the top most 'interesting' stocks, meant for investors as a source of ideas that merit further research. ''

[gimmetheloot] 10/8/2017 23:16

This will bounce very strongly from here!!

[arja] 10/8/2017 22:32

christh,
yes, it was ex-div which was party of the drop but the concern now is that the Dow
dropped even more after UK close and could drop to 211000 as worst case scenario. But more likely just a day or so more of falls before bouncing back . I rarely short but shorted S32 whichb I hope will go with the steep fall tonight in OZ !!

[robrah] 10/8/2017 15:23
