"Major steps are also being made in both Europe and North America towards the commercialisation of a number of projects, particularly those involving Biotec's materials and Stanelco intends to update the market with these developments shortly."

That was very cryptic Biscuit - Are you anticipating an announcement - or just reminding us what was said previously - or both ????

Eric/Andy - not what I wanted to hear - but respect your views. I sold out my previous cfd's at 16 - but wanted to be back in before Mondays announcement. Just felt that we had temporarily bottomed. I now get the feeling I may have called this one wrong - but will wait and watch.

Please dont say I told you so on Monday if it drops further - i will just quietly sell my cfd and reap my losses. Not touching my real shares - they are there to stay.

Bhunt, What margin are you getting on SEO's CFDs?


Interested have thought of using them on this share.

Fred - I use Barclays and generally tend to pay the price on the screen plus 17.50 per trade plus an overnight finance fee of Libor plus(cant remember what - but it is competitive).

Did I answer the question ?

A little bit more interest being shown - now 2:1 @ 14.75 : 15.25 and 100k v 10k

Anyone can see the shares are in a massive downtrend.Every time there`s a bounce in the price it is followed by a gradual decline, we can see that from the charts.The next fall will more than likely hit 10p with a bounce back up to 14p and as many have mentioned without firm orders i think this trend will continue down to 8p which is a more realistic market cap.I am still in for the long term though.

Bhunt,

Just stating facts as per the RNS of 3rd October, I take it that when a company says there are major steps being made and they're due to update the market on them shortly that they will update the market shortly about the major steps being made. No confusion or abiguity there.

Cheers,

Biscuit

bhunt, not quite,

I was being lazy. I wanted to know the margin on Seo.

% outlay, sometimes 5,10,20%

I was surprise with csn

fred, it's 20% with barclays for seo.

biscuit
statment 3oct now 21oct how short is shortly
if no new by monday even just a report in a paper
i think the company is letting us down andmissing agreat pr chance
after all two shows and stillnot a word from them
still holding tight 123

BH Thank you. Might be tempted .

pisces: I have also made thepoint that the downtrend has not yet been broken although the recent recovery was quite significant in volume terms. An effort seems to be in process to change the trend line at least returning to the horizontal. Personally, I see 8p as very unlikely. 10p would be a cap of some 90M. ASDA on its own counts for 5p. Min addition of 2.5p for other sales of Greenseal and min of 2.5p for Starpol. T&G forecast is quite conservative and implies sp of 21p although, as andysmith has pointed out there are a number of assumptions. My point would be that a number of investment buys would be brought in at 12p and certainly at 10p based on very reasonable forecasts. Baza, I believe, called it right at 12p. I can't see any Starpol announcements having a significant effect on value unless linked to Greenseal and I believe we just need to be patient for those.

Biscuit,
I know you love that part of the RNS but...............
Enough said.
Alan

Sorry Alan,

But it does get tiresome listening to Traders speculating about there uptrends, downtrends and refering to no factual releases from the company what so ever. If you are a Trader" then you should be on the Traders Thread not the investors thread.

Biscuit

Twas only a joke, Biscuit!!
I agree, as it happens, and I am in for the long haul. I'm not a big fan of charting either, but you've got to hand it to the charters, they've called it right recently.
I just wish all the RNS material was as clear as the one you quote.
Alan

No probs Alan.

That's why I quote it, it's very clear and makes it very clear that there is no need for any idle speculation.

Fred - sorry - I misunderstood - all this jargon - as Bos said its 20% on SEO and on most AIM and small caps. I think that is pretty common.

Cheers

A bit more on the Nature works linkup - looks like they have been working with WM for over 12 months before introducing it - I hope it does not take that lomg for SEO to get on board.

"Warehouse Club's Fresh Produce Packaging to be Made From NatureWorks PLA
Starting November 2005

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- At the 2005 Sustainable
Packaging Forum, NatureWorks LLC and SAM'S CLUB, a division of Wal-Mart
Stores, Inc. (NYSE: WMT), co-presented the results of a year-long program to
introduce the use of NatureWorks PLA (R) in fresh cut produce packaging at
SAM'S CLUB and Wal-Mart Super Centers. The clear, thermoformed packaging will
begin to appear in stores nationwide beginning in November 2005, starting with
fresh cut fruit, herbs, strawberries and Brussels sprouts.
After a year of research and test marketing, replacing conventional
packaging with NatureWorks PLA for just four items, it would translate to more
than 100 million containers per year for Wal-Mart Stores Inc. "With this
change to packaging made from corn we will save the equivalent of 800,000
gallons of gasoline and reduce more than 11 million lbs. of green house gas
emissions from polluting our environment," said Matt Kistler, vice president
product development and private brands SAM'S CLUB. NatureWorks PLA and its
ability to provide a price stable product as the price of oil needed to
produce conventional packaging keeps climbing higher and higher is attractive
to all clients.
Made from Midwestern field corn, NatureWorks PLA is a bio-based plastic
that can be used in a wide range of packaging applications from clear food
containers to beverage bottles. The material provides the convenience, look,
feel and performance of petroleum-based plastic packaging -- while being made
from a 100 percent annually renewable natural resource.
"We have worked hand-in-hand with SAM'S CLUB and Wal-Mart to demonstrate
NatureWorks PLA packaging is not only a more sustainable alternative that
consumers desire, but also a sound financial move in this era of unpredictable
oil prices," said Dennis McGrew, vice president and chief marketing officer of
NatureWorks LLC. "The cost of our raw material, essentially corn, has
remained stable for decades, while oil and natural gas -- which is what the
majority of existing plastics are made from -- has been on a roller coaster
ride that has made it difficult for companies to forecast their packaging
costs."

A Natural Evolution
The relationship between Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. and NatureWorks began in
the fall of 2004. Wal-Mart will be replacing existing packaging with
NatureWorks PLA products in a series of phases through the supply chain.
Phase One will roll out the first week in November 2005 with four products in
the fresh produce aisle. Phase Two includes approximately eight million more
packaging items with cut vegetable containers. Phase Three, just in time for
the Holidays, will be new NatureWorks PLA gift cards. The final phase
scheduled for 2005 will include bread bags, donut boxes and select tomato
packaging.

How to Make Plastic from Corn
The technology to produce NatureWorks PLA essentially harvests the starch
stored in corn into natural plant sugars. The sugar is then fermented into
lactic acid, which is used to create a clear plastic called polylactide (PLA)
that can be shaped into a variety of bottles, containers, trays, film and
other packaging.
In addition to the appeal of its more sustainable source, NatureWorks PLA
packaging has the flexibility to be disposed of in several manners, including
recycling and industrial composting, and fits most local waste disposal
schemes. The material has been successfully commercially composted in
applications where that disposal method is desired and commercial composting
infrastructure is in place, and it has been reviewed by the Biodegradable
Products Institute (BPI) and is listed as positive for compostable materials.
The multiple disposal alternatives of NatureWorks PLA means it can play a key
role in landfill diversion.
NatureWorks PLA offers many other environmentally preferred benefits.
From cradle to resin, its production uses 68 percent less fossil fuel
resources than traditional plastics and it is the world's first greenhouse-
gas-neutral polymer. "

Although not a great charts fan, for the best reason ( i have little understanding of them, but I am attempting to increase my knowledge base ) i do agree they can be a useful tool in investing. As for SEO I think that charting is good for reading the potential ups/downs as long as there is no or very little news. Blue sky type shares such as SEO or PET are far more reliant on news that if/when the all important RNS is released the Sp will rocket sky wards no matter what the charts say.
Patience is a virtue, and I have just opened another packet, its amazing what they sell in supermarkets now days. If only it came RF sealed and Starpol wrapped.
