WEZ was totally hyped back in 2006/7 and has been dormant since then. I was young, stupid and inexperienced and lost a bundle there. ::)  It seems they reached some important milestones this week with the ‘cutting of first level ventilation shaft’, or something to that effect. Don’t really know what that means, but will look into it.  Other recent highlight, the announcement of the approval of the Optimisation Study implementation for the Bakubung Platinum Mine.

It’s Friday the 13th and a full moon, whoo-hoo.

You’re welcome. :)

It’s cold out there, time for log fires, red wine and being snug-as- a-bug. ;D

Dow ended +0.59%, Nas +1.04%, S&P +0.63%, futures green.

VIX  -3.31% @ 11.68, F&G @ 79 ‘Extreme Greed’

In Hong Kong (local time 1:15pm), here 7:15am, markets awaiting US job reporting later today:

Tokyo +0.1%
Hong Kong -0.3%
Shanghai -0.8%
Sydney +0.6%
Taipei -0.1%

Eco Calendar:

14:30 US Nonfarm exp 218K, prev 288K & Umemployment rate 6.4%, prev 6.3%

In Europe now, DAX flat, FTSE +0.1%, CAC flat.  Yesterday’s ECB stimulus not as exhilarating as expected, also not so much fun for banks to be paying interest to central bank on overnight deposits. Guess banks will just forward it to their clients in some way in the end.

T40 +120 pips (0.27%)

'Learn to lose money and live with it.'

True, you can't cry over spilled milk in this game and you can't always be right.  Get over it and move on.
