Although Sir Les (Der Geist?) rubs me right up the wrong way, this is a good post imo
@grassseeds . Whilst it's good for the soul to be optimistic there is also reality.
I'd say this is pretty close to calling a spade a spade. Hopeful myself for a negotiated deal including a takeover, hopefully enough that we leave with something and not be put through the many years ordeal that one imagines the ICSID would entail.
There doesn't appear to be any other realistic options on the table since it's come down to arbitration. Maybe others have a different opinion? I'm not claiming to be an expert on complex issues but fancy I've at least been blessed with some common sense.
Reality seems to be $1.37 after tax keeps management from being too vulnerable in potential future legal disputes.
So when we get $12 USD nobody's got any cause for complaints really.
I hope it might also be realistic to hold some of the bad actors to account even after any possible takeover for damages, where Zijin comes to mind. And tear people like Tommy and boatman a new ass hole.
