I have seen nothing to convince me that 4p is a realistic target in the slightest. I have held for many years when 4p was as good as it got and the company, IMO, had little or no products at that time. Now, like it or not we have.
I cannot see any way that a company with a deal(to be completed by next summer) for 200+ machines earning annually 25k each can be valued in some folks eyes at the same value as 1-5 years back when we sold little or nothing of note. And thats before any other news on the range of products offered by Stanelco that are growing by the month. Rather in than out I think to be honest. If I sell today Walmart will announce tomorrow!

no news in the morning tomorrow - my prediction may come true - 16 is a key support level - and many stop losses are around that mark - it may fall fast soon - All IMO - DYOR

No sales news this week - not more agreements jam tomorrow with no money - but real sales this week - and we may test the 16p level - at which point - IMO - if it goes through 16p - then a pronounced quick fall will happen.
All IMO - DYOR

A nice piece on bioplastics. For full article see link.
http://www.freshplaza.com/2005/28sep/2_au_bioplastics.htm
Australasian Bioplastics Association
Natural resources including cellulose and starch are used to produce products which perform the same functions as conventional plastic products, but at the end of their life cycle can be organically recycled by composting to produce carbon dioxide, water and carbon humus.
In summary, bioplastics have two main characteristics which differentiate them from conventional petrochemical sourced plastics.
Increasing use of renewable resources.
Biodegradable and compostable.
Growing segments of the marketplace require that renewable resources replace finite resources and the environmental impact of products and services is minimised. These demands are strongest in some parts of Europe but also building here. As pressure grows to recycle and reduce the amount of waste going to landfill, a biodegradable and compostable packaging material which can be composted along with the organic waste stream helps our industry and society to meet the targets being set.

only a short piece say when he sold his holdings in SEO in may it wasn't a hard decision, the company had not cleared all the fences in its deal with Asda, but share price rocketed and suddenly trading on 40 times profits for 2006 so he sold. Now four months later the price is back at what he bought for..
The heading of the article by the way is " Admit your mistakes as soon as possible"!!!!!!!!..........SD

Sounds like a shrewd operator then. - I wonder if he has bought back in - or is he waiting for a lower entry point.

Hi All,
I mentioned earlier that the Business Wire press releases were issued to coincide with two packaging shows, where Natureworks were presenting/exhibiting, here is the one I couldn't find earlier, it is as I said earlier, at the Birmingham NEC ....

WELCOME FROM ROGER COLES
Many shows claim they are unique - the PPMA Show is!
It is the only show which attracts processing, production and packaging personnel from a wide variety of industries - all with a focus on machinery, equipment and systems. In fact, we only attract the real machinery buyers - engineers, production managers and senior management.
Whatever your target markets - drinks, food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, chemicals or any combination of these or others - they all visit the PPMA Show. And, because the show is annual, most visitors who come are serious buyers, with live projects and real budgets - visitors without projects know that there will be another opportunity next year.
Date 27 September 2005 - 29 September 2005
Location National Exhibition Centre, Birmingham, UNITED KINGDOM

Well, Biscuit, that made interesting reading! But I could find no product where SEO had put their name against it,although I have to admit to not trying them all. You would think they would feature strongly in the biodegradeable categories. Either the web site is too recent, although some names appear in various categories, or SEO are missing a trick

for those trying to use - the new FT article from Nick Louth - to ramp in a suggestive way I suggest people read it he uses the example of selling SE0 high an example of when selling at the right time gives the best result he sold high and the price is now back to where he got in first he does not say anything else - does not say he would buy back in the article is about admitting mistakes but he uses SE0 as one where it was a success and not a mistake rampers trying to ramp trying to hype an article that says his sell of SE0 was a good decision and not a mistake if you all had sold when he did you would have had big profits - the people still holding all the way down - have made the mistake IMO and his too -

Anyone buying now is committing one of the cardinal sins of successfull trading, NEVER attempt to catch a falling knife.
Promises of news soon are utter piffle, trade what you see not what you wish you could see.
Over 100 million pounds too expensive, much better value elsewhere in companies that will actually make a profit one day.

Cawkwell ousted over share row
Robert Lea, Evening Standard
28 September 2005
INFAMOUS share trader Simon Cawkwell has had his brief career as a listed company director abruptly ended after he was found to have broken Stock Exchange rules.
BANNED: Simon Cawkwell's brief career as a company director has come to an end
Cawkwell - known in the market as Evil Knievil - broke stock market trading regulations by buying shares during a prohibited period in Aim-quoted Kryso Resources, where he had been deputy chairman since last year.
It has emerged that Cawkwell was forced to resign from his only public company role after an almighty row in which the Tajikistan gold prospector's City financial adviser issued a 'me or him' ultimatum to the company.
Stock Exchange filings reveal that Cawkwell bought 100,000 shares in Kryso at 11p on 26 August and another 250,000 at 11.3p on 30 August.
The share purchases were, according to the filings, to be held in trust for [Cawkwell's] brotherinlaw Paul Darlow, a Crown Court judge. But the purchases breached the listing rules of Aim, the lightly regulated junior stock market.
The rules dictate that directors cannot trade shares in their company during a so-called closed period. In Kryso's case, directors are barred from trading between 1 August and 30 September or when Kryso reports its interim results.
Cawkwell was forced to quit after an ultimatum from Kryso's nominated adviser or 'nomad', Brett Miller of Ruegg & Co.
Kryso finance director Craig Brown admitted: 'There was a falling-out as a result of the share transactions in which Simon was shown to be non-compliant [with AIM's listing rules]. Words were exchanged and the nomad said either Simon goes or he does. Simon went.'
Cawkwell today admitted: 'I should have been more careful. I had got it into my head that the interims weren't due until November and that we weren't in a closed period.'
The shares were bought by Cawkwell's broker when Cawkwell says he was incommunicado on holiday in Norfolk. Cawkwell, however, is scathing of Miller's role in his departure: 'He is an ill-mannered, silly little man who out of a minor matter has invented a great trouble,' he said.
Miller declined to comment. Kryso shares today opened at 11p, showing a notional profit of 1825 on the share purchases.
Since resigning, Cawkwell has bought another 200,000 Kryso shares and claims to have taken a 500,000 share 'buy' spread bet with a bookmaker.
THE self-styled Evil Knievel has built up a legendary status among the legions of day trading share punters.
When Cawkwell moves on a stock his actions are minutely dissected on investor website chatrooms.
Having made a huge reputation with big stock market bets, often controversially 'short-selling' companies to make a profit on falling shares, Cawkwell, 59, has been compared with a Bond villain - a baddie of capitalism moving share prices for his own end from his London lair.
Though an inveterate gambler, Cawkwell says his investment decisions are based on the fundamental health of companies' balance sheets using his qualified accountant's eye.
However, his decision last year to become a public company director shocked his followers. 'The term poacherturnedgamekeeper does not begin to describe it,' said one commentator.
Cawkwell is holding out hope of a return to public-company life at some stage. 'Some people may think I am a scallywag but they are misinformed,' he said.
