I had been thinking of posting something similar, but then I went off-task learning what little I could of the changes at IPH.
The two conversations are actually related. A company is in business for
their profits, not for
our amusement, and a company must make decisions that benefit its investors unless they have a definite commitment to do otherwise.
I don't know anything about the commitments made by Mr. Ellis to his new investors, we will see how SLRG and other IPH investments are managed in the future, but we shouldn't expect a mining company to be run any differently than from how mining companies have been for the past century, slowly transporting western rock elsewhere.
