Whats the logic behind a share going down 5+% on a day with no adverse news and where there have been more buys than sells?
Is someone having a joke ?

Just read the Shares Magazine most weeks, that question is usually sent and answered repeatedly in the Letters Section.

Someone commented that buys have been greater than sells for a few days and yet each day the sp has reacted negatively.
In any event, if the sp had reacted positively, it would simply tread water untill meaningful news released.
At this point, there's no use pumping the price up as witth no news any rise would be short-lived.
4 more weeks in which SEO must confirm their first commercial GS installation , or else another misjudgement of timescale.

I'm quite happy to buy more shares at 5p or less.
I'm quite happy to hold at 5p or over for a good few years.
It's only money..

7-12p trading zone is what I indicated when it last spiked. Those who thought I was mad selling near 10p, like our regular Russian, might want to reconsider.
Still no GS orders and non coming soon.
Only the results to come with a 4+ million loss.
90 mil cap way way too high. The market punishes non delivery, it's GS orders they want to see, the 200 asda conversions promised 12 months ago and not even 1 done yet. Deals were signed for the radio frequency sealing technology in July 2005, but Stanelco admits it has still not made its first delivery.
Lucky for you they have biotec. Good luck, you'll all need it in the next week.
I'll buy back but not with this risk profile in volatile markets.

Page 10 of Shares Magazine 1/6/06 makes good reading. Article confirms a trial with a hamburger company for its new wrapping. Company has refused to name which hamburger company but Persico is also mentioned in the article. Let's hope this is the end of the news famine and perhaps a better sp from now on?

sharesure sshould give a lift to s/price but the market wants contracts that earn money not trails.

Hope this is another possitive sign re the way Wal Mart are heading
LONDON (AFX) - Wal-Mart Stores Inc may offer ethanol made from corn at its
383 U.S. gas stations, a company spokesman said Wednesday.
Wal-Mart stressed it is not ready yet to make any announcements, but corn
growers said Wal-Mart's entry into a market now mainly made up of scattered
independent gas stations would be a significant boost to a budding new fuel
industry.
Ethanol made from U.S.-grown corn has become a hot topic this year as
Congress, the Bush administration and American drivers look for alternative
fuels to reduce dependence on foreign oil, keep fuel prices down and curb
emissions blamed for global warming.
The world's largest retailer brought together a group of industry,
government and academic experts on alternative fuels in Washington last week to
discuss how Wal-Mart could develop a network for supplying gas stations at its
stores and Sam's Clubs with E-85 fuel.
E-85 is a blend of 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent gasoline.
"We are considering E-85, absolutely," Wal-Mart spokesman Kevin Gardner
said.
"We are looking to continue to work with and identify strategic partners in
the business community to further our efforts in the alternative fuels arena.
That said, there are a lot of things we are looking at and considering and we
just don't have anything to announce right now," Gardner said.
Representatives from the fuel industry, Wal-Mart suppliers and government
and nongovernment experts attended the meeting.
The National Corn Growers Association was one of those attending, and its
chief executive, Rock Tolman, said a decision by Wal-Mart to offer E-85 would
help solve one of the emerging industry's problems: not enough availability for
consumers.
More than 5 million vehicles on the road can run on the blend and car
manufacturers say they are making more models that can use it. Yet the fuel is
sold by just over 600 retailers across the nation, mainly independents rather
than chains.
Tolman said the move would also increase competitive pressure on national
chains to carry E-85.
"It would be one more significant, very big step in this whole transition
toward biofuels," Tolman said.
Wal-Mart owns and operates gas stations at 375 of its nearly 570 Sam's Club
locations and another eight on the grounds of Wal-Mart stores. Outside companies
operate gas stations at more than 1,000 Wal-Marts nationally, but Wal-Mart
cannot dictate whether they offer E-85, Gardner said.

Greekman, No objections at all. I have aso put it on AdVFN which seems to have attracted the usual low life to comment on 'yet more trials'. What do they expect - no cpmpany ever buys a new product without satisfying itself that it does what they want!

Oblomov - nice one. Judging by the zero sp reaction maybe you are near the truth! Hope not.

BK, I made a similar post last month which I'll repeat again because it gives a great insight to where WM are heading - link below to An interview with Wal-Mart CEO H. Lee Scott in April:-

In an idle moment and trying to cheer myself up Re SEO I thought I'd look at what a deal with McDonalds with Wrap 100 could mean to the SP.
All fag packet calcs so would appreciate any input if anyone has actual cost figures etc to make it more accurate.
According to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McDonalds
McDonalds serve nearly 50 million customers each day
Say, 10 million buy a product which uses Wrap 100. Assuming SEO get 1 for
every 1000 products( 0.0010p each) , this equates to 10,000 per day or 3.65 million per annum.
Around enough to justify the current SP on its own?
Of course, 10 million per day could be 20 million, or 1 million - just guessing. The 0.0010p is based on nothing factual but seems possible without being overly optimistic. And, of course, we were all working out a year ago what 200, 300 or even 3000 GS conversions would do to the SP and we all know where we are with that one!
And also of course, SEO may only get 1 per
10,000 products.
And also also of course, the burger firm could be the one in my post above, in which case substitute the 50 million customers with 5 or 6!
Any other thoughts on this?
