Been focused on other things for a few days but a few thoughts on shares I hold, given the perceived turmoil.

Main focuses for me for a while now, has been shares exposed to Covid, battery metals (incl. energy storage) and gold.

#HZM #BCN #ACP #GDR #AVCT #SRB #BMN
2/13
The events of the last few days if anything strengthen that stance.

In terms of Covid (and I tread carefully because both my stocks have other things in their locker), its a waiting game on both.

I think 1 strong update from #GDR and it moves much higher from here.
3/13
In terms of #AVCT, an update, one way or the other is pending, whereby the exact progress of BAMS/LFT tests, should be made clearer.

I see no reason for concern and the lockdown measures announced today in the UK, only go to strengthen that argument. Nothing has changed.

Nickel steadily pushing up to $15k.

With a current EV of <£60m, #HZM really is a sitting duck.

I think the issue is that some expect a large PLC-level placing to fund the equity component of Araguaia.

However, Teck, Glencore and Orion (existing stakeholders) are more... 1/3
...than capable of investing at project level (something that many conventional insti. investors cannot do).

I hope this is mgmt's plan: not only could a much higher pre-new money valuation be achieved, but existing shareholders' share in Vermelho would also remain intact. 2/3
The fact that the arranging of the financing package is taking some time (to complete by year end) is suggestive that project level equity investment is indeed the plan: were #HZM intending to raise at PLC level, it wouldn't take 5 months to arrange!

Excited to be holding.

A thread from last October when I previously began buying #HZM.

For Araguaia, I think the securing of the debt facility for $325m / ~73% of upfront capex pushes fair value to the top of my quoted range - 20% of post-tax NPV of DFS.

Assuming Ni of $15k/t, that's $104.4m. 1/5
= £79.3m, or 5.49p/s.

For Vermelho, the increasing interest in tier 1 nickel-cobalt projects for supplying the exponentially growing EV market (e.g. @elonmusk) also pushes fair value to the top of my quoted range - 7% of post-tax NPV of PFS.

Ni at $15k/t = $101.8m / £77.4m

2/5
That equates to 5.35p/s.

Finally, net cash of £15m = 1.04p/s.

My current fair value for #HZM: £171.7m, or 11.9p/s.

Of course, I'm in agreement with the vast majority of industry commentators that Ni is set for a huge rally over the coming years.

I see it at $18k next year 3/5

Have added to my #HZM position this morning.

Whilst the whole finance package still needs to get over the line, for me the signals are that a clear path has been set as to how the company gets there.

So i expect no further significant problems with this.
2/3
We're talking 73% debt finance package for a project in Brazil, during Covid, where finance risks run higher.

Plus success in bringing Araguaia on line, could help de-risk Vermelho, which is an eventual beast of project.
3/3
Its certainly a long term hold but I am more than happy to wait because the greatest barrier to a billion pound plus valuation, has for me, now been removed.

Now its a case of bringing the final parts together, executing and then simply waiting it out.

Once the #COVID19 crisis is over, I think colossal sums of retail money (particularly from Millennials) will flood back into companies striving to repair the natural word. 4 key issues are:

i) Global warming (and pollution)
ii) Deforestation
iii) Animal welfare
iv) Plastics

1/4
Here are just some of the industries focussing on addressing these issues:

i) Alternative energy generation, energy storage, EVs, green metals mining

ii) Vertical farming and other agri-tech

iii) plant-based meat, cultured meat

iv) waste-to-energy; plastics alternatives

2/4
Companies in these industries are already attracting mind-blowing valuations (standout example: v. ICE manufacturers).

Yet I feel these industries will attract even more dizzying valuations throughout this decade.

Long-term investing in these sectors is vital, IMO.

Morning all - a few days off from the markets post GE, for a trip to Clermont to watch @bathrugby (lose with dignity 🙄).

Great to see #RRE slowly recover. Said it before, but - a $1.2bn offer was made. Completion of that deal would have seen the SP up by 250% minimum, IMO.
#MKA also beginning to climb back up. The Talaxis / Chinalco MoU is massive: Chinalco is one of China's six SEOs that hold a near-monopoly over the global REE market.

Its partnership with Talaxis is, for me, evidence that it's acutely aware of the Pentagon's interest in Songwe.
#HZM is also recovering, in line with Ni bouncing. Expecting a busy Q1 there, with major newsflow generated by both projects. Current EV (~£27m) is simply wrong. If it doesn't change soon, I don't think it's unreasonable to suggest a takeover - Orion being an obvious candidate.

Some excellent moves in the PF this week:

ST trades in each of #TRX and #XSG reduced, as they had increased so quickly (~150% and 66% respectively). Balances of positions to be held until ~2p for each stock, but will revise accordingly, keeping a close eye on momentum. 1/12
Two new modest ST trades opened yesterday PM, 200k shares in each: #CIR and #C4XD (both ~17.5p av. entry). Primarily capitalising on community's (and my) recent success in trading up Woodford/Invesco calamities (TRX and XSG!). Both now enjoy solid fundamentals - valuations...2/12
...much more attractive now, with both #CIR and #C4XD SPs having been decimated this year. Moreover, they now enjoy the backing of retail. Fundamentals combined with sentiment = crucial.

ST trade (but happy to hold as a LT investment) opened in #DKL too. Very cheap CPO biz..3/12

#EUA cooling off period was due, although it's not nice seeing negative commentary, some driven by shorting, some by enmity. For the former - there are ways of shorting without being aggressive - @Smudgedann @Blowster85 proved this. For the latter - celebrate, it's great for AIM!
Onto #EUA: both interviews have been terrific. The interviewees could not have been more clear that Monch at the very least will be acquired in the near term.

- Pd has in the past 24 hours hit another ATH. Demand from auto industry is rocketing and supply pipeline is negligible.
- #EUA is the only viable UK listed Co left that offers direct exposure to Pd. A lot of cross ramping flying about on Twitter and BBs about other PGM players. I don't want direct exposure to primarily Pt plays - the market dynamics aren't appealing. Pd, however...

Taken 1m shares in #HZM over past 3 days, av. 3.96p – £57.3m mkt cap. Current net cash position of ~£29m, 50% of cap.

Two 100% owned Nickel pre-production assets in Brazil:

Araguaia - construction ready, sourcing development capex.

Vermelho - PFS just completed, DFS next.
#HZM Araguaia: at $16.4k Ni, project has a post tax NPV of $1.2bn, v development capex of $443m. 2.7x is a very heathy ratio – IRR comes in at 30.7%.

Co has secured a 2.25% royalty deal with mining financier, Orion, for $25m cash. Orion will likely provide further devel. capex.
#HZM Vermelho: at $16.4k Ni, project has a post tax NPV of $1.7bn, v development capex of $652m. Again, very healthy. IRR of 26.3%.

Whilst Araguaia is a FeNi deposit, Vermelho is NiCo – i.e. geared towards providing for a major macro trend, the electric vehicle revolution.
