No, sorry, that is incorrect. There are fundamental reasons why the price of Zinc has risen by such a degree and that is quite simple. Supply and demand...that's it. And nothing has changed there.
It is purely a matter of how much is out there and how much is needed.
Go back to what I said about RVR share price dropping. Because the ASX allows a flawed system to manipulate share prices by allowing a chosen few to buy/sell shares one at a time without having to incur costs as the normal punter has to.
If the ASX charged a minimum brokerage, like I have to pay for every transaction that I make, to every one or better yet made a minimum purchase of e.g. $1,000 then that would go a long way to stopping the rot.
