At the very least, give thanks to the leader of the free world, and apparently Europe now, Mark Carney.The most read non-Tom article this week is The View From The Montana Log-Cabin As Gold Falls Again In Face Of Bond Rout by Nigel Somerville at number 18, or number 26 with Bearcasts.
I discuss Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI) and Delta Gold (DTG) where Jonathan Swann faces a Nigel Wray dilemma. I have a qyestion for Swanny and wonder if he has an honest answer.
Our tip of the month last month at a 70p offer price, rock drilling tools and associated products group Mincon (MCON) has issued a “trading update” concluding that it “now expects that full year 2026 revenue and EBITDA will be ahead of market expectations”.
