  2. Looking for stoploss on line.
    AOTonline? Challenger.com? Any others? AOT seems reasonable, $33 trade, $49.95/month, free if more than 8 trades/month. If database isn't accessed then $0/month. Seems reasonable, any opinions?

  11. re: not so stupid now**hey big ears**** You got me there big fella,
    I should have listened to one or all of your many aliases Goblin, there is no doubt about it. I'd be buying flat out at 23c today if I had. Ah well, thems the breaks. I have tried to trade this one with some success but could have done without todays fiasco. Still, I've been in and out since 8c so perhaps not such a blow. Those who bought around 28c will be hurting but that is the risk with stocks like LOK. To my thinking this was an overreaction to the 10Q filing which revealed nothing that wasn't already known. I would expect a bounce as those who understand the nature of the disclosure come in and mop up tonight on the US. Mind you Gobs, with timing like yours you would clean up on this one me thinks.
    regards

    A leopard does not change its spots, nor a tiger its stripes.

    Their record indicates that they can't feel shame. With these "piggy backs" now approved, they will obtain even more power. Small investors, unless there one of their mates, will be the losers.

  18. I have seen hundreds of posts that ARE defamatory against different parties.

    My conscience is clear; I don't feel any remorse about what I posted. Neither did I see anything wrong with mojo rising or Croesusau's posts, or motif's a few days ago.

    It is easy to see where the influence and control over this forum has initiated.

    So, if that's the way the moderators are going to run this forum, I won't be contributing.

  19. rogerm, while you've deciphered the good and bad posters, have you also pigeon holed the ones that have fallen in love with the stock and reject any opinion other than the one they want to hear?
    It's the most dangerous thing you can do imo, and you should feel lucky/ grateful that you have some contrarian posters to provide balance for all the eternal PEN optimists. But what would I know?
    PEN is very tradable, but not out of the woods by a long way imo.
    • *Removed* this post has been removed from public view
  20. So you can see both sides of the story matty.
    I'm in the same boat having traded PEN from time to time.
    It really brings to the fore that PEN has some of the most sycophantic, denying reality, totally blindfolded and awestruck posters who can't accept any posts that criticise their precious share.
    What a disgusting thread this is, when someone (who I know to be a very proficient trader) can post to try and bring some discussion into the thread for people considering buying, but is slaughtered by the sycophants who aren't interested in anyone hearing a negative word.
    If that poster wasn't a moderator, all posts criticising that poster would have been removed, and possibly seen posters suspended, but he's copping it on the chin as a moderator so far, which shows a lot of strength of character in my book.
    Shame on many of you.

  22. Agree seuss.
    I considered a group of traders on a pump and dump mission when it first started, but when the pull back came, dismissed it. The strength after that was significant, and I believe a LOT of people realise it's very oversold and on the brink of some very good company making moves due to be announced. Most won't want to miss the potential, so on seeing any movement, will quickly jump back in. That's no pump and dump.
    • *Removed* this post has been removed from public view
  23. I know. Maybe I didn't explain myself very well.
    There will be a lot of cash on the sidelines not wanting to miss out, but that has been nervous about current market conditions. Movement in stock price is enough to bring that money back in. Nothing to do with management, just investor psychology imo.

  25. Do you have a 2.7 million deposit for a new home?
    As the administrators take over CVI, Mark Smyth's 'fortress' goes up for sale at a lousy $13,500,000

    Now, with a 2.7million deposit, and interest rate of 7.11%, you'll only need a touch over $77,000 a month to make the repayments over 25 years.

    Feeling sick enough yet?
    Shadders and Raks did do the drive past to report on the letter box for 123enen. I remember it well from just after the EGM days.

    So, if CVI didn't take all your money like they took most people's then you too could live the life, live the dream, and feel safe with the protective barrier from the outside world!

    Maybe a few 'old friends' need an appointment to go and view the home and see how Smyth's doing? Is the dementia well advanced yet? Any house guests? Malcolm Johnson, Anton Tarkanyi, excelsior perhaps?

  28. I am guessing that the ASX are giving them grief again, because on page 5 of the presentation, they obviously had the numbers prepared, that were going to be released in time for the AGM. (Obviously again is my guess)

    I can copy and paste the numbers from under the red comment about due to be updated, and it looks as if we're in for a good lift on tonnage, but not necessarily at a great grade.
    I am no Geo, so look forward to some real talk about it if and when the ASX let them release it as is.

    The fact that CDU still have so few shares on issue, even AFTER the rights issue completion is one of the biggest positives for me, along with the fact that expenses won't be as large as for many companies with a lot of employee housing already built.

    Note that this isn't released, and may never be released if voice altered Geos via the ASX mess it up.
    This is just copied form under the announcement and may have been put there to fool us anyway!

  29. I find that post rather repugnant and cynical cusox.
    Right now, imo it's a buy.

    What does that have to do with anything else?
    Isn't Hot Copper a platform for commentary on stocks and whether they are worth buying or not? If we didn't comment, there would be no Hot Copper

    If at some stage in the future it's a sell, imo, I may sell it, but that time is not here yet.
    Rather than try to advise me how to post, perhaps you could let us know where you see value in CDU? Do you wait for it to be proven and moving up again?

    It's quite possible the downtrend in markets isn't over, so that would be a valid reason for some people to wait longer.
    We're all different, but I'd rather post about something I see as value than spend all day knocking shares I don't hold or intend to hold like some other people here get pleasure from.

  30. Shadow, that is bull dust, and you know it.
    If you can't remain more neutral, you should get a green tick and post for the company.
    You simply can't give a value on it without ALL the information.
    Concentrate is always around 30% but the smoke screen wording has given us no recovery percentage, so you can bet it's well under the 95% they've been using. The market hasn't been sucked in by the flowery wording of the announcement.

  31. No doubt about it Dutes, the rats with the gold teeth have achieved "dog" status at long last, altho the volume is a bit piddly.

    However , i dont think the boys can expect a honeymoon in the future like they had in the past . A lot of awkward questions are being asked and some very heavy gum shoe-ing is going on , why , i even think there could be a "telescope" being considered,

    Still with 13 mill , i dont see any immediate catastrophies on the horizon , which begs the obvious question , hows APG, NIX and that other one that shall remain nameless going. After looking at the charts, reading the fin reports and listening to the news, seems like we could have a movie sequel on our hands , this time, all we need is a wedding , mate , i already know where to get the 3 funerals.

  35. I get your drift joewolf.
    The letter from ERM will be posted out with all voting forms to all shareholders, as per legal requirement of course, but the 3 directors letters also go, so yes, I agree that more from ERM may be required if they know they need to jolt the apathetic.

    Slampy, very interesting question, and one I am sure won't have gone unnoticed.

    Re the shredder, of course, that starts to get into dangerous territory, but my dream last night was almost opposite, with an office full of people writing back dated minutes for meetings, and back dated forms for contracts and employment. It was a hectic dream, and I hope there's no reality in it at all.

    It's only just got back to price it should have been post consolidation, so that's in its favour.

    Dear AIC Mines Shareholder

    Anybody else recieve this late last night..I just found it in junk mail ?

    The current copper price is $8.13 AUD ($5.10 USD). AISC for the Eloise copper mine was $5.15 AUD for the 2024 financial year. More recently it has improved to $4.75. Profits are also coming, EBITDA was $51.8m in 2024.

    So why is the AIC Mines share price still languishing? All kinds of reasons will be given but the real reason is share price suppression. Some high profile investors and companies want to take over the small and medium size Cloncurry mining companies. The nearer to production the better for them because all the hard work has already been done, and if they are already in production like AIC Mines, they use third parties to cap the share price so the takeover won't cost as much.

    Glencore

    There are some bigger fish than AIC that could be interested to takeover AIC but the whale in the Cloncurry is Glencore. AIC already use the Glencore processing plant at Mt Isa Mine. Now that AIC has increased its mineral resource estimate for Jericho, AIC plans to bring Jericho online and increase copper production to 20,000tpa. It is my expectation that the price will be contained until just before production of Jericho begins and then it will be taken over. Why do I believe this? Because of what has happened in the Cloncurry up until now.

    Greg Campbell the Mayor of Cloncurry

    The mayor expresses concerns for Cloncurry mining companies being taken over by bigger fish in the following articles,

    https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02-20/cloncurry-hit-by-recent-mine-closures-job-losses/104906510

    "We've just got to find a way so that the pathway for junior miners to get established is more secure, because often the bigger mines start with the junior working it" he said.

    https://www.northwestweekly.com.au/mayor-wants-help-for-junior-miners-after-collapses-costs-town-millions-2025-01-22

    In this article Mayor Campbell believes the fault lies with the onerous government approval processes placed on the resource sector that jeopardise the economic viability of new projects before the machinery has even rolled on to the mine site.

    This I agree with and is why I am writing to you.

    I am actually a top 20 shareholder in Maronan Metals which owns the Maronan lead/silver/gold/copper deposit 90 kms from the Eloise mine. I was concerned that my investment was not being progressed to pay me dividends for the next twenty years but rather being progressed to be 'mine ready' for a bigger fish like Glencore to take Maronan over. In my research I came to the conclusion that all the mining companies in the Cloncurry are in this same position.

    The Custodial Accounts (UBS, HSBC, Citibank, Bnp Paribas, JP Morgan).

    It is my belief that prices are being suppressed by third parties acting for the bigger fish. I believe these third parties are hidden within the custodial accounts that dominate the share registers. The following custodial accounts own large proportions of AIC Mines.

    Citicorp - 9.18%
    HSBC - 8.29%
    UBS - 2.28%
    BNP Paribas - 2.75%
    JP Morgan - 1.59%

    When I became concerned in 2024 that the Maronan share price was being suppressed I hired a lawyer. Under 672a of the Corporations Act, I demanded from Maronan executives the beneficial identities of the institiutions that are within these investment banks that act as custodians. What happened next was spectacular. Because of the preliminary discovery I was about to commence, UBS, an investment bank well known for short selling and manipulating immediately sold their 3% shareholding in Maronan lower than the placement price they paid and are now gone from the register. I no longer see the suspicious trading in Maronan that I frequently saw.

    Previously whenever there was buying momentum, I would witness many large sell orders appear within minutes apart from each other, sometimes seconds apart in a co-ordinated act of aggressively pushing down the price and even undercutting the last traded price all in the space of minutes. On days of good news or silver price rises, the price would often open high, trade higher, then be capped at a price and then be brought down in the final minutes even closing down for the day. Although UBS has only left recently, I have stopped seeing this type of aggressive selling to suppress the price altogether. I believe something illegal was taking place and that is why I was successful.

    I do not know who I would have found within the UBS custodial account had the case gone to court but I believe it would have been some entity related to the big fish trying to take over Cloncurry mining companies.

    Glencore is constantly feeding - circling - needs more, and more and more.

    I am one shareholder that has had enough of the manipulation that is responsible for companies like Glencore taking over their takeover targets. This not only prevents our companies from reaching market caps in the billions, but the destructive effects on all of Australia from these behemoths taking over everything and sending profits to Switzerland are the reason we are not the lucky country anymore.

    On the one hand we need to reduce the unfair burdens of regulations on outback mining companies and on the other hand we need to take strong legal action to expose and stop the suppression of our share prices.

    Therefore I propose that a number of shareholders request that directors initiate 672a requests to ASIC for the beneficial identities of the custodial accounts I have listed. I have attached my example legal letter to Maronan. I also suggest sharing this email with others who own other stocks. Contacting the Cloncurry Mayor could also be helpful.

    8 years ago a politician named Andrew Leigh was surprised that nearly all Australian ASX companies are dominated by these custodial investment banks. He didnt have a good grasp of the situation and was attacked by opposition. These two articles should give you some idea of why custodial accounts are used by institutions like hedge funds to conceal their holdings.

    disallowed/politics/federal/andrew-leigh-slips-up--australian-business-isnt-run-by-five-faceless-investors-20170315-guyof4.html

    The best way for you to communicate back with me for now is by this email. In the future it may be necessary to have an ASIC whatsapp group to make quicker decisions. I know for many people that getting to know other shareholders is a pleasant experience. If you don't wish to receive any more contact please also let me know.

    About me

    My father was a passionate Australian Shareholders Association member who started the ASA coffee meetings which spread around Australia. In those days my father made submissions to ASIC on behalf of the ASA opposing director options which nearly all directors award themselves for free these days. He also made submissions to ASIC opposing algorithmic trading when it first began. He eventually left the ASA in disgust after the ASA started accepting corporate donations which corrupted the whole organisation. Many others left at that time and now it is an organisation that fails to help anybody.

    I have followed his path and tried to expose dishonest ASX practices where I can. My petition "stop dishonest practices on the Asutralian Stock Exchange and demand a royal commission" has 8300 signatures.

    I suffered a large loss when Arrium Ltd, Australia's largest steel maker went into administration. This set me on a course of exposing the underlying reasons why these things happen An Arrium article I wrote can be read here.

    https://michaelwest.com.au/barely-legal-arrium-a-fee-fest-for-financiers-a-misery-fest-for-shareholders/

    My goal is to help support Cloncurry mining companies so that we can make the profits ourselves and not give them away to whales like Glencore. True North Copper has already fallen to them. If you hate the situation as much as I do, please consider getting involved in any way, big or small. Even if the best you can do is a reply of moral support, its better than nothing.

    We should be the richest citizens on the planet with the amount of metals we have in the ground. It doesn't just have to be about wealth either. With Copper being an environmental metal used for all things sustainable, more ethical smaller companies like AIC and Maronan can behave better than the monster companies like Glencore that are named in the Panama Papers and Paradise Papers for unethical conduct.

    Lets take our country back. Glencore epitomizes everything that is wrong with the world. Everything has been financialized. It's not about investing and having part ownership in a company or enterprise. It's about share price manipulation and skimming wealth from other investors. Not producing anything of value yourself or investing into a company that does but stealing from those that do. Ok that's reality but that does not make it right.

    If you are an AIC shareholder and getting this email, the best service you can do for your country is to start standing up for Australian shareholder rights!

    Sincerely
    Ben Pauley
