Elon Musk has repeatedly Tweeted about the cryptocurrency Dogecoin, another recognised cryptocurrency, in recent days. The reaction of the cryptocurrency market was evident as Dogecoin's value increased at an unbelievable rate. 

Twitter Poll Results and The Mining Industry

Copper Boom

The price of copper is up 65% since announcement of the Nationwide Lockdown on 23rd March 2020 in reaction to the Coronavirus pandemic. Although COVID-19 was the root cause of the demise of the copper prices initially, the price of copper continues to rise, increasing a further 1.35% today so far.

Copper is a metal in great demand. It has been used for millennia with some decorative articles dating back to 8,700BC. Copper production boomed during the Industrial Age as new technology and adaptive methods of mining made it easier to process copper than ever before. The versatility of copper and its uses in jewellery and currency encourages some to consider it a precious metal, however due to copper being plentiful and easily oxidised in moist air, it is not defined as a precious metal. 

One of the key features of copper is its ability to conduct high voltages of electricity without burning up. This is due to its high electrical conductivity, making it an ideal material to manufacture wiring and printed circuit boards for a variety of purposes. This is important to consider as we are in the midst of an evolutionary time as the world is focusing on becoming greener and protective of the environment. 

The use of copper has increased increased dramatically as the world relies on supplying its nations with renewable energy sources because copper is used five times more in these systems compared to traditional power generation. 

What companies can we see benefitting from the copper price boom?

Primarily, the industries that mine the valuable engineering metal will directly benefit from the rising demand and price increase of copper. Quite simply because the 1 tonne of copper sold today will gain 65% more income than it would have generated on 23rd March 2020. 
With price continuing to increase and the demand for copper also on the rise, mining companies such a Rambler Metals & Mining Plc and Thor Mining Plc should be able to make a significant profits and benefit from the current circumstances. 

Rambler Metals & Mining Plc have managed to maintain mining during 2020 despite the coronavirus restrictions due to their ability to maintain robust measures to identify and manage any reported cases of COVID-19. Thankfully, there have been zero cases of the virus throughout the extensive list of employees and contractors. 
Rambler are now focused on draining the lower sections of their mine that were not feasible to maintain during the period of the reduced mining operations put in place that allowed the continuation of mining. The pumping of the mine is expected to be completed by the end of this month. 

They are also steadily increasing the capacity of which their mine can operate back to its full potential of 1350 tonnes per day.
In addition to this, Rambler Metals & Mining are also concluding the purchase of Duck Pond plant and relocating the plant to the Ming Mine Site by July this year. 

Thor Mining Plc has three major copper projects: Alford East. Alford West and Kapunda projects. The Alford West project is of great interest and the mining technique, In Situ Recovery mining, is more cost effective than traditional mining methods leading to an increased profit potential from this location. 

Thor has been on our radar for several months and Mick Billing (Chairman/CEO of Thor Mining) seems to be thorough, ensuring that his claims are rigorously drilled and inspected to pinpoint the resources prior to initiating a full scale mining operation which could potentially result in a substantial loss is no copper or other valuable material was found. 

Thor have drilling and exploration exercises scheduled throughout the early part of 2021 with hope that mining will commence soon after. 
Check out our video where we explore Thor's prospects and explain more about the in situ recovery mining method. 

Eddie Stobart Logistics Plc

Eddie Stobart Logistics Plc are yet to confirm a date to when they will change their name to Logistics Development Group Plc. 

 Today we learned that Stobart Group shareholders 'overwhelmingly back its name change to Esken Ltd. This has been confirmed to come into effect as of Tuesday 9th February. 
We understand that the operating sectors of Stobart Group will permitted to use the brand up until May 2023 and London Southend Airport will not change its name at all. 

As a combined delineation effort, both companies are expected to change their names at a similar time. Eddie Stobart Logistics confirmed that the name change would take effect shortly after admission.

Eurasia Share Price Increase

 Eurasia Mining Plc is making a speedy recovery back to the £0.30 share price region we saw prior to Alexei Churokov selling 27,400,00 shares which caused the SP to plummet nearly 50% last week. Eurasia released an RNS to confirm that the sale of Mr Churokov's shares were to cover an immediate cash call and was not related to the sale of Eurasia but the Company and its professional advisers continue to work on the Formal Sale Process as recently reported via RNS of 14th January 2021.  The market has experienced a flurry of phenomenal buy orders, some exceeding a share price of £0.2575, and very few sells in comparison.

Eurasia has seen a share price increase of 10.39% since the start of the trading this morning and midday. The reasons for this is still unclear without any official statement provided by Eurasia, however it is rumoured on social media that the sale has been completed and we are to expect an RNS imminently. 
Eurasia's shares were temporarily suspended from trading on 11th February 2020. Nearly a year on, could we be looking at a repeat suspension, this time announcing the sale of Eurasia. 

Norilsk Nickel is considered the favourites to buy Eurasia, it is a coincidence that today they also announce that they will be hosting a conference call on the 16th February 2020 for investors and analysts at 14:00hrs GMT. 
They have supplied options to dial in from Russia, USA and the United Kingdom. They have Norilsk Nickel have confirmed that the conference will be held in English and in Russian. Although the conference call has been said to report on the results for the year 2020, following the publication of the Q4 Results on 29th January, it is possible that this conference provides the opportunity to announce the purchase of Eurasia.
Norilsk Nickel did also host a conference on 26th February 2020 following the publication of the Q4 Results and announced on the same day, prior to the conference being held, that they had signed a contract for the Nadezhda Metallurgical Plant, known as the Sulphur Project. 

Eurasia is now in possession of the approved Definitive Feasibility Study in relation to the West Kytlim mine, which adds additional value and scope to the sale price. This was confirmed via RNS on 21st January 2021. 

At this moment in time, the sale proceedings remain protected under a non disclosure order, therefore no official statement can be released should this theory be accurate, however we can assume that Norilsk Nickel will use the same practice to announce any updates leading up to this event.

Regardless of the cause of the share price increase, let's enjoy it and wait patiently for the all important RNS to be announced, whenever that may be.

r/WallStreetBets and the Stock Market

 Introduction

Last week, we saw 'Wallstreetbets', a community of investors shake the stock market by purchasing shares from failing US companies, forcing the share price to rocket. The community collaborated on the online message board site Reddit before simultaneously purchasing stocks from companies such as Gamestop, Nokia and Blackberry on the brink of liquidation, causing the share price to increase. 

Meanwhile, experienced stock market traders were losing significant amounts of money as they had effectively been betting that these companies would collapse. These investors were using a trading method called 'shorting'. 

The Reddit community have taken the stance that short selling is immoral and should not be permitted and found that boosting the share price of particular companies by purchasing shares in an organised time frame, the short sellers would not be able to profit, and in fact have to pay for the share price increase, potentially bankrupting some investors. This market strategy is known as a "short squeeze".

What is Shorting?

Shorting or short-selling is a method that investors use to bet on a companies share price will fall. Investors will borrow shares from a broker to sell in the market and if the price drops, they buy the shares back and keep the difference in price. On the contrary, if the share price increases, the investor must pay the difference in price. 

What does this mean?
As the share price sky rocketed, due to the demand of the likeminded investors purchasing the shares of the companies that experienced traders were convinced that the share price would drop, these investors are now required to pay the difference as required under the conditions of short selling.
This has publicised the short selling methodology and has raised ethical concerns as to how people should be permitted to profit from a company failing. The effects that this has had on the US Stock Market is likely to trigger an investigation or change of practices as a response.

Should we be worried?
Unless you are short selling, the simple answer is no. Not yet. These is some evidence to say that the events from the United States of America are being mimicked in the United Kingdom with some companies such as Cineworld but the 24% gain is little in comparison to Gamestop. Investors may want to consider creating limit orders to protect their investments as the market is likely to change rapidly should this offensive attack on short sellers become practiced on the UK stock market. Sell out at a price your happy with rather than being greedy and getting caught on the downward trend.

Automatic purchases and sells appear to continue to be processed even if the trading platform ceases activity due to the rapid changes. 

What happens next?
The primary targets for Monday 1st February 2021 appear to be AMC Entertainment Holdings Limited (NYSE:AMC), Gamestop Corp (NYSE:GME), Nokia Oyj (NYSE:NOK) and Blackberry (NYSE:BB) but the list is extensive. The Wallstreetbets group are also targeting the price of silver as it is believed that price of gold and silver is being manipulated to cover the real rate of inflation.

With the rush on purchasing shares in AMC Entertainment Holdings, there is a chance that Amur Minerals will see a spare price increase due to the similar abbreviations (NYSE:AMC) vs (LON:AMC) causing some confusion.
The potential UK companies that have been mentioned are Cineworld (LON:CINE), other likely candidates are those that have suffered harshly due to the COVID-19 pandemic and enforced closures of businesses to reduce the spread of the virus.

What to expect in the Stock Market over the next few weeks

The stock market was the centre of mass media coverage last week with GameStop shares frenzy. We at Bull & Bear strongly believe that this coverage has encouraged a mass of new, keen investors into the stock market. For the honest and willing new investors, we welcome you. But the actions and the media coverage have also disrupted the normal trends and trust that a stock market required in order to gain momentum. We were all reminded as to how volatile and unpredictable stock trading can be.

Almost all of our watchlist suffered losses and we hope that, as the dust begins to settle, trust can be restored and our shares can once again increase to their rightful value. What we can expect is a thorough investigation into the morality of short-selling and potentially changes made to the trading market as we know it. 

New Investors may benefit from Bull and Bear Invest Channel's 'Understanding the Stock Market' tuition videos that are in production and being uploaded to our YouTube Channel. Be sure to subscribe so that you don't miss a thing!

Here are a few highlights from our watchlist that would like to share with you:

 Eurasia Mining PLC (LON:EUA)

Eurasia took a nose dive to £0.15p on Wednesday 27th January 2021 as Alexei Churakov sold 27,400,000 ordinary shares to 'cover an urgent and critical cash call'. Eurasia managed to creep back up and settle at £0.24 to end the week. 

Eurasia confirm that the Company and the team of professional advisors continue to work on the Formal Sale Process and the operations are ongoing with the DFS for West Kytlim which was recently approved on 21st January 2021. 

The development of the sale of Eurasia Mining has been kept secret due to a non-disclosure order which has made it incredibly difficult to obtain facts, resulting in a multitude of rumours that cannot be fully substantiated, but we all hope that sale is concluded sometime soon and for the respective appropriate price.

Thor Mining (LON:THR)

Thor Mining have published the Quarterly Report October - December 2020 and it makes a very interesting read. They have also highlighted the next steps they expect to conclude in Q1 of 2021. Thor is expected to be releasing a large quantity of updates during Q1 regarding the drilling programmes, ISR test work and securing project investments. 

Bull & Bear's presentation on Thor Mining explains the concept of In Situ Recovery and the benefits it has in comparison to the standard mining methods. 

Rambler Mining & Metals (LON:RMM)

Rambler closed the week at a low £0.335 despite the Copper Production Results issued on 26th January 2021. Rambler boasts about being able to remain operational during the COVID-19 pandemic due to robust measures in place to identify and manage any occurrences of infection.

Rambler have been very quiet recently on the news front but we are yet to see confirmation that the proposed transaction involving the sale of the Nugget Pond Gold Plant is concluded. We are expecting this to be concluded during Q1 of 2021. The sale of the Nugget Pond Gold Plant will provide Rambler with US$2.0m cash and C£0.5m in common shares of Maritime Resources Corp.

Argo Blockchain LTD (LON:ARB)

Argo Blockchain announced that 1295 new mining machines were in production on Friday 29th January 2021. The RNS expressed the Company's intentions and a further 10,000 new machines are on order and are expected to be delivered during Q1 and Q2 of 2021. 
Collectively, these additional machines will raise Argo Blockchain's mining power to 1,685 petahash!
Bitcoin saw a brief 16.14% increase on Friday and this can only mean good news for the company who are mining it!

We are keen to see the developments with Argo Blockchain as the year continues.

Eddie Stobart Logistics Plc (LON:ESL)

We are awaiting the time that Eddie Stobart Logistics Plc is renamed to "Logistics Development Group Plc" We know that this is expected to happen before February 28th 2021. This move is to represent a change in business strategy and delineate from the Eddie Stobart business. We are expecting this change to be represented in the media with mass coverage. 

I would expect Logistics Development Group to use this opportunity to announce further business opportunities and strategies in order to create firm foundations for the renamed Company to progress forward.

Not to be confused with Stobart Group (LON:STOB) who are also changing their name to "Eskew Limited", as we understand, for a similar reason.

Eurasia's share price recovery & sale update

 As we were expecting, an RNS landed at 07:00 this morning from Eurasia Mining Plc regarding the "adverse movement in the Company's share price." 

They confirm that the RNS that disturbed a countless number of investors was reported by Alexei Churokov himself. Eurasia had received no notification of the the trade prior to this RNS being released. 

Eurasia confirm that they remain focused and continue to work on the Formal Sale Process and that the operations of the company are still ongoing with the Definitive Feasibility Study for West Kytlim which was formally approved on 21st January 2021.

It is the understanding that the sale of these shares were to cover an urgent and critical cash call and that all the shares sold were acquired by Veles International. 

Alexei has no intentions to sell him remaining shares and/or options at this time.

Who are Veles International?
Veles Capital is one of the oldest Russian privately held investment companies providing financial services and access to Russian financial markets, private equity and real estate investing to corporate and high net worth individual investors.

What we now know

We now understand that the sale of the 27,400,00 ordinary shares was not attributed to the sale process of Eurasia Mining Plc. 
The investors who rightly or wrongly assumed that the sale negotiations had collapsed can now rest assured that this is not the case. 

On the plus side, the news that shock the investor community has generated plenty of online activity which could encourage additional buyers, potentially raising the share price above the £0.30 area of which we have been holding steady since the 5th January 2021.

At the time of publishing this post, the SP increased 50% to £0.27 from the start of the trading day. 

Eurasia Mining PLC's SP Crash

Alexei Churakov submitted the sale of 27,400,000 ordinary shares worth £0.29 each, valued at a grand total of £7,946,00.00, on 26th January 2021. At 16:02 on 27th January 2021, an RNS confirmed the sale had been processed.

Alexei is still in possession of 12,282,774 ordinary shares. 

Why did Alexei Churakov sell 27,400,00 ordinary shares?
Alexei Churakov owns a company called Venus Garden Holdings. 20th November 2017, Venus Garden Holdings subscribed £76,336 for 27,262,814 ordinary shares in Eurasia Mining PLC.
Coincidently, this number is almost identical to the volume of shares sold. 
The reason for this may be that the potential buyer of Eurasia does not want another company or subsidiary having any ownership in Eurasia. 
Alexei has been able to retain 12,282,774 as these are directly ties with Eurasia and not purchased as a subsidiary.

What caused the share price to drop so quickly?

By Mr Churakov selling a proportion of his holding caused the sale price to drop accordingly. Due to the large volume of shares sold, this triggered a quantity of  investors' stop losses. The share price fell from £0.293 at an alarming rate nearly 50%.

Stop losses are automatic triggers to sell a set volume of shares if the sale price was to match or drop less than a stated price. It is an effective way to ensure that you do not lose any more money than you are willing to stake, but it has limitations and as we have seen today, a detrimental effect to the stock market.

With a snow ball effect of stop losses being triggered, the sale price dropped at a lighting speed until finally resting at £0.15.

At 16:25, the share price finally started to crawl upwards from the traumatic dive, but the trading day ceased after two price monitoring extensions at £0.18. Many investors saw the opportunity to purchase in-demand shares at a cheaper than expected price and this has aided the share price from falling any lower. 

What do we expect to happen now?

Quite simply, nobody knows. 

One opportunity is for the shares to be bought up by those still believing in Eurasia. This is how the share price increased on the final stretch of the trading day. 

However, as the news travels of the near 50% loss, many additional sells are expected upon open on 28th January 2021 which has the potential to drive the share price lower.

We do expect Eurasia to be releasing an RNS in response to the sudden drop to ease investors. We all hope that this RNS is released in response to news regarding the sale of Eurasia. The process has been discussed behind closed doors due to a non-disclosure agreement so we know very little about the sale or the parties involved at this time.

We have to remember, that when selling shares, there needs to be a buyer. For any transaction to occur, both parties must exist. What we may be seeing is the first of many transactions to aid the sale process. If this is the situation, then the share price will raise upon the completion of the transaction.
