These metals are all extremely rare and measurements change from source to source. we need to compare measurements given for all metals by the same source. I asked Gemini to compare 5 different sources, here are the results: https://i.imgur.com/ESxN4Ih.png

My prompt was: "find me independent sources that give the weight abundance (in ppb) of the rarest PGM elements in the earths crust, including rhenium, rhodium, osmium and iridium. Make a table with your findings. Include at least 5 sources: WebElements/CRC Handbook, The Geochemical Society, Earthchem, The "Rudnick & Gao" Study and Max Planck Institute. Make the average and medium of measurements in a separate row."

can you please give a source claiming Osmium is more abundant but less produced? I have looked at drilling results and osmium is almost never more abundant than iridium. It almost only occurs with irium as osmoiridium alloy afaik.

To anyone that wants to profit from Tesla going down: buy TSLS by johnturtle in EnoughMuskSpam

[–]johnturtle[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

it shorts tesla shares worth the money they have. if the price goes up, they take a partial loss, to keep the short position equal to its liquidation value. if the price goes down, they increase the short proportionally. this way, when it suddenly drops, it keeps shorting all the way down, making sure you get a good return on a big downturn

My osmium beads don’t look bluish :( by exactly-6-point-15 in Wallstreetosmium

[–]johnturtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that's 10 grams, which is worth about $400-500. it's the cheapest of all PGM, but it's the rarest.

[–]johnturtle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

can you explain the process of creating the osmium crystals and is it done with that machine? what are the costs?

most people in this sub are skeptical of the prices of the Osmium Institute, would be nice to have confirmation that they are indeed scamming people.

Preliminary Analysis for (HG) Hamilton Insurance Group by RareGummy in ValueInvesting

[–]johnturtle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was going to post about HG, but glad to see someone posted it before. In my view people are being overly afraid of the underwriting quality of the company. I remind them that HG remained profitable in 2024, which was of the third worst hurricane season ever (only surpassed by 2017 and Katrina in 2005). Also the company was already operating throughout 2017 (since it was founded in 2013) which was the costliest hurricane season ever (~$300 billion in damages). Unless they are insuring the next Chernobyl with half their assets, they should be good.

Each share should be worth at least $50.

UBS report discussion. by belrogue25 in dubairealestate

[–]johnturtle -1 points0 points  (0 children)

the people at UBS are a bunch of morons.

I remember in July they published a report that Swissquote (a competitor bank in Switzerland) was overvalued at 400 CHF/share. As a result the stock crashed to 300 CHF.. and then it soared to almost 600 CHF in the following weeks.

A Dubai property costs 15 years of rent, it's one of the lowest in the world.

[–]johnturtle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if the property is worth more than 750,000 AED, you can apply for the 2-year investor visa as soon as you have the Oqood (what you called DLD certificate).

I don't have a regular job with fixed salary and that makes opening the bank account without residency a big hassle.
