We have not added anything to the previous POSTS for three months as nothing happened on the market of note during this time.
In fact resources were retreated some what. South Africa had relied on resources for decades to make their economy work.
Various factors have broardened the economy and resources now although still important only make up a smaller part of the gross domestic product.
Now at last as the strike still continues the prices of platinum group metals is starting to slowly increase.
The mines have suffered so much that it is doubtful if they can ever restore production to former levels.
There signs on the ground that it will soon be safe for non strikers to return to work.

14,18/6/2014 The strike seems to be over. See Naomi's resources page for the latest on WEZ and 25/6/2014 on JBL

Tensions
New tensions in the world these days, with the Russian , Ukraine stand off , Chinas slowing economy and faltering recoveries in the West have created market that is hesitant to buy resources, locally in South Africa a bitter political fight that has spilled over into labour unrest as well.

THE FIRST POST OF 2014
17/2/2014
As far as Jubilee goes hang in there! Platinum is likely to take off soon.
As far as gold goes Janet Yellan seems to be a dove of the American Fed., probably keeping interest rates low. Traders are turning to GOLD to preserve their capital.
I have added Village(VIL) to my list .See my small cap page.
2/2/2014

A NEW DIRECTION !
See my small cap resources blog and Barry's new large cap resources pages monthly in the index above,for the latest veiws.See Naomi's update above on 15/8/2013
The United States continues to recover slowly.Now Britian and Germany are taking their first tentative steps in recovery as is Japan.In France they seem to be bumping along the bottom at the moment and China is still some what directionless.
Of interest warrants showing good movement are
from 17 JUL AMSSBG UP 85%
17 JUL IMPSBG UP 68%
23 JUL AGL UP 30%
One has to be nimble in trading in warrant as strike action might disrupt this trend soon.Always keep stop-losses in place.

BETTER TIMES MIGHT BE EXPECTED
TECHNICAL ANALYSIS WILL NO LONGER BE UPDATED AS ITS POPULARITY HAS WANED ALONG WITH THE DECLINE IN GENERAL INTEREST IN WARRANTS.I ENJOYEDPOSTING THIS PAGE FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS.THE RESOURCE POST IS NOW MOST POPULAR AND I SHALL TRY TO POST TWICE MONTHLY IN FUTURE.
BARRY WILL POST TWO PAGES ON LARGE CAP RESOURCES AS WELL SOON
See resource update above on 17/7/2013
The American,Chinese and Japanese markets are showing better trends now.Europe is still down but Germany and Britian are weathering the financial crises slightly better than the rest and also showing signs of recovery.
There ought to be a recovery in our market in the next couple of weeks,but do keep stop-losses in place as the recovery of minerals seems some what unconvincing at this stage.

A mixed market
21/6/2013
ALWAYS KEEP A STOP -LOSS IN PLACE AS THE MARKET IS NOW VERY VOLATILE THANKS TO BERNANKES STATEMENTS. PUT OPTIONS ARE NOW DOING WELL.PROBABLY WHEN THE DOW REACHES 14600 TRADERS WILL REALISE THAT THE FED WILL NOT DROP THEM COMPLETELY AND WILL START MOVING UPWARDS SLOWLY AGAIN
19/6/2013
Technical update.
AGL,BIL both are oversold and about to take off.
The South African shares are also oversold,but it remains to be seen if the agreement signed with the Unions also carries the workers wishes,so are likely to stay neutral.TOPI is also likely to reverse upwards.
SEE THE SMALL CAP PAGE WHICH HAS BEEN RESET AND UPDATED ABOVE
We are influenced by world markets.
The DOW had reached an all time high again last week. It is likely to pause now and enter a sideways down graph as Chinese market stutters.In the rest of the world there is also no real recovery yet.The market here and else where is in a holding pattern.The shares MIGHT go up tomorrow,how ever AGL,AMS,EXX IMP,SOL,BIL and the TOPI are likely to decline further as there are no incentives to advance from their OVERSOLD position .KIO is showing signs of advance.

APRIL UPDATE BY Naomi day 2
16 APR
LITLE HAS CHANGED THIS MONTH STILL VERY OVERSOLD BUT THE MAJOR SELL OFF OF RESOURCES BY A TERROR ACT HAS HASTENED THE SELL OFF.STILL VERY LITTLE SIGN OF A SOLID UPTURN.THE MARKET IS MORE LIKELY TO DRIFT FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS BEFORE A MORE PERMANENT DIRECTION IS LIKELY TO SHOW ITSELF.
2 APR
THE MARKET IS STILL VERY OVERSOLD.OUR MARKET FOLLOWS EUROPE AS MOST OF OUR TRADE IS IN THIS REGION.THE EURO HAS BEEN LOSING GROUND TO THE US DOLLAR AS HAVE WE.OUR MAIN RESOURCES ARE QUOTED IN DOLLARS.THE EUROPEAN MARKET IS LIKELY TO STILL HAVE SOME DISRUPTIONS IN THIS YEAR,HOW EVER THEIR RECOVERY IN THE LONGER TERM IS LIKELY TO BE STRONGER THAN THE US DOLLAR AS IT IS BASED ON A SOUNDER FOOTING,AS THEY HAVE RESISTED THE URGE TO OVER PRINT PAPER EURO TO GET THEIR ECONOMIES MOVING AGAIN.
ALLWAYS KEEP STOP-LOSSES IN PLACE WHEN TRADING DERIVATIVES AS MARKETS CAN CHANGE DIRECTION WHEN YOU LEAST EXPECT IT.GOLD AND PLATINUM ARE LIKELY TO HAVE A BOOST NOW, ON JITTERS ABOUT CYPRUS.
