John Disney ( the rangy situation ..) ID#24387:

for Rangy haters and number lovers ..

There nothing funny about Rangy .. Rangy ADR closed in NY at $3.81
yesterday after closing Joburg previously at 8.5 rand .. the adr
are 3 for one .. so that means one rangy equivalent went for
3.81/3 = $1.27 times 6.14 = 7.8 rands ..about 8 per cent under
the joburg close .. amazing .. I guess even in this age of internet
and technology and all .. guys still have to be able to divide by
three ..
add to this the following insult .. upon the reorganization of
JCI .. Rangold shareholders will receive 0.625 shares of Western
areas stock ( AFTER it has paid out a div of 4.75 rands ) .. now
WAR close 22.5 rands .. so assume it drops by 4.75 ex div makes
17.75 rands .. and 0.625 times that makes a rangold breakeven
of 11.09 rands .. now the ADR is THREE of those so we're looking
at 33.28 rands divided by 6.14 = $5.42 ..
.. so there you are .. no internet stock .. no hot gold find ..
.. just a market full of guys that are numerically crippled ..
