I felt a little bit a little bit embarrassed putting my views of where I think the share price will go on opening (and I am allowing a week to see where the dust settles) but I wasn’t upramping, it’s my view based on my own due diligence and taking into account that ownership of mining and exploration rights as well as ownership in Dathcom are sorted out in our favour (which is how I speculate the outcome to myself). I admit I am not researched enough on what instos might do regarding selling or lending their shares, or the time they have to do it, but for some reason I suspect you of being a sneaky downramper. I can’t wait to see which way the share price goes, it won’t prove either of us right or wrong, but out of pure interest I’ll get an idea on how the world views our company and project. Anyone who suggests Nigel should have been more open, or is going to give up fighting for AVZ’s success doesn’t know him. You also seem to be wanting to spend more time on this thread, where I am wanting to spend less, so if you reply, bear in mind I won’t be back till tomorrow
In an effort of doing further due diligence I decided to look into what I don't know about how AVZ may be affected by institutional investors since we joined and then exited the ASX200 and 300 in case I have to reconsider the viewpoints in my last three posts here on TSE.
Others with more experience in this area could provide their views as I'm sttarting to wonder whether Institutional Analysis could outweigh Fundamental and Technical Analysis. I haven't as yet been able to work out how to factor this in but I've always believed knowledge, no matter what, leads you to be able to make better decisions, so here's what I found.
Firstly, while I was looking, what I found on last Friday's
https://www.marketindex.com.au/asx/avz that didn't impress me:
1) It stated that the company's last trade was: Last Trade 6:58pm 02/09/22 (AEST)
2)Then under the Company Overview it said: AVZ Minerals Limited (AVZ) is a mineral exploration company focused on developing the Manono Lithium and Tin Project located in the south of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) in central Africa. AVZ has a 60 per cent interest in the Manono Project (15% under Option from Dathomir Mining Resources).
