The final paragraph of wednesdays RNS -
"This notifiable interest also comprises the notifiable interest of Mr Edward C.
Johnson III, a principal shareholder of Fidelity International Limited, and
interests held on behalf of authorised unit trust schemes in the United Kingdom."
I am told this is included on all Fidelity's such notifications. It is less than clear if he has a notifiable interest, or indeed any interest in his own right.
As the total is only 0.11% over the notification threshold of 3%, ECJ and Fidelity cannot both have a notifiable interest.
I suspect the paragraph is a "catch all" to avoid any possible omission. Or, if he has some, this refers to his total voting rights, own name investment and clients funds invested through companies under his control.

Tony / JJS. Fidelity have some 14% of ASOS and 14% of Alizyme whilst the same statement is included for Johnson. Given the size of his personal wealth it is probably not unreasonable to assume that he has a personal stake included in the notifiable total of each company: the assumption is that he has personal involvement in investment decisions. ASC and AZM are longer established so it might also be reasonable to expect Fidelity to build up stake to around the 13% level over a period of time; they must have something of an insider view.

Testing the support level yet again. Given news on on-going negotiations would appear risky ploy for shorting effort to drive through this level. Thus an argument for topping up (or averaging down).

All this up a quarter then down a quarter just looks so much like the MMs still working larger orders, ie Fidelity still buying at the cost of PI stop losses.
There must have been plenty of CFDs and spread bets gone recently, and if the company providing them had hedged the stock, that has also been freed up for Fidelity or others to buy.
Roll on some news, I hope it comes this week, tuesday is newsday again ?

Or as she sang it toosday and noosday. The man I love, G&I Gershwin

Not seen so many sell orders on the Sets system ever re this share.
There are 12 orders of 50,000, 1 of 100,00 and 1 of 23,000 all at 13p with a few over that price. On the buy side there are only 3 on Sets.
No view, just stating a fact.

Greekman,
We need the news on Walmart or Perseco.
That should catch the eye of many a big investor !

What are people's views on when we should start to become a little concerned by the fact that we havn't heard news on Walmart/Perseco, I had the impression from the AGM statement that we should hear in days not weeks re Walmart and Perseco news would follow very shortly after.

BKK2,
A matter of perception I'm sure. If not stated precisely, words/phrases like "soon", "shortly", "near future", "cusp", "verging", etc are all subject to the speaker's point of reference.
Nothing has changed to the negative from when I entered this over a year ago, in fact, there have been many positives, albeit the timescales have been way out.
I would only start to get worried if any of the major "potential" deals have fallen through.
I would certainly expect a deal or two of note to be struck before Autumn 2006. I would also expect a trial or two to have commenced within the same timeframe.
All really depends on how long you wish to tie your funds into this and the magnitude of the gains you expect.

If a delegation from WM & Tyson took the time to visit and SEO were confident enough to show them a working GS unit, plus Grampian happy enough with the unit etc, must surely speak volumes.
All boils down to whether it met the expectations of the WM/Tyson bods, which I'm sure it must have done if GS still achieves the savings etc originally claimed.

Garyble,
That's just about my take on the situation.
