AKE (ASX) Ann: Company Presentation

Give it rest guys. Cassandra has contributed immensely to this forum and provided incredible insights with regards to the chemistry and technologies. She has made a statement about a trend that is based in fact. It doesn't mean that immediately after replacing a boiler, output won't double, but they are still starting off a low base.

As for you mojohand, I have yet to read a half intelligent post from you. Just obsessive cheerleader behaviour, nothing constructive. If you have an alternative view, then present it. But it doesn't benefit anybody you just attacking anybody who may question the company or its performance. FYI - constant assessment an re-evaluation of an investment thesis are core components of any structured investment strategy. Buying, holding, praying, shooting-down "detractors" is a fools game. Its not investing, its lazy attitude 2nd grade management teams have been exploiting for decades - by selling the dream.

Hey Dr Daz

Just as an aside .... you do realise the meaning behind the pen-name Cassandra don't you? The poster who uses that name on hc only recently started posting and their posts have all had a common theme: reasonably negative prognostications of Orocobre's fate. Not only are they valid and well argued but entirely true to character with "Cassandra". It is also true to form that many regular posters on the ORE threads do not believe what Cassandra is predicting.

And it is quite possible (even likely given their writing style (?)) that in real life the poster is male, not female (not that that matters out here in the ether).

Even more of an aside, one of the great Australian pollies, imho, was Peter Walsh who was a hard left wing farmer from WA and who was Finance Minister in the Hawke governments and a perfect counter-weight to Paul Keating when Keating was treasurer and dreaming the big dreams. One of Keating's rare slip-ups as an orator / sledger was when he attempted to dismiss Walsh's constant reticence by labelling him a Cassandra, apparently without realising that the story behind Cassandra is that in the end all Cassandra's warnings came true.

But yes, as far as I can make out the contributions of both Cassandra and Niu (not sure what Niu as a handle means?) to this thread have been top notch.
