iii Prices I spoke to iii this morning. This issue has now been raised with their provider as a technical fault. In future may I suggest that you call iii rather than email? The staff are really helpful, knowledgeable and charming.

Re: iii Prices And me. All last week I found the end of the day volumes figures were completely untrustworthy. Some were fine, some weren't. I also have found intermittently if you check the prices shortly after the close some prices' first 3 columns are not the true prices but the prices posted 24 hours earlier. That's been going on for months. The BRWM issue & the column figures are more recent. I have written an e mail to iii about all of these. Not had a reply to the BRWM or volume issue. The other issue they just say press the renew page, which I do anyway. In other words they seem lost. To be fair I believe they import the figures from some other supplier, so the problem is not directly in ii's control.But very frustrating when faults are inconsistent and intermittent. It gets that one can not trust the data.

Re: third time lucky? I agree that it's probably too late to sell now. I sold a sizeable proportion of my shares nearly at the top (rarely get it right I must say) so will also look to add more if the price goes down by another 10%. Value of the Sterling will clearly be influential in the direction of the share price as well as the general sentiment towards the mining sector.

Re: third time lucky? I think the damage is done - we might go a little further down but it is in hold territory now for me. If we see another 5-10% drop from here I will pile in. The down side is Sterling, which I expect will go from strength to strength after the election and as the type of brexit we are going to have becomes clearer.

AGM I attended the AGM today. It all went very smoothly with no awkward questions (which is always a good sign.) Although they recognise the short term volatility they seem VERY optimistic about the medium term (2-3 year) view. I had a long chat to one of the directors (David Cheyne) after the meeting; and they are very positive. I had not realised quite how actively they are trading their holdings. Another thing I had not fully appreciated is that this is not a Black Rock fund. It is an independent company which hires Black Rock to manage the investment portfolio. I like this model - if the managers are not performing they can be sacked and replaced - not the cosy position of most fund managers.
