Oilywag,

Like you checked trades, they show the same, a gap between 0848 and 0930.
Does seam unusual for SEO these days. Most of the trades prior to this look to have been triggered by the Sets system so if no shares marrying up so to speak buys/sells it could account for it. It may also be that punters are sitting on their hands awaiting news, as there is also a similar gap between 0942 and 1027.

I don't trust the artist, Oilywag - for a start he has the pianist playing the side of the piano. Grand piano lids are typically hinged at the left-hand end of the keyboard.

Ooh, aren't you the little music connoiseur?

I recall reading somewhere ASDA are having a Sustainable Resources/Packaging (or something similar) conference this week in Harrogate.

Tesco announced their plastic bag initiative this morning.

Are Tesco anticipating something from ASDA at the end of their conference and getting in first with todays publicity?

There is posting on ADVFN that SEO has issued 47m shares @ 8.1p today.
Can anone confirm/deny this?

Tony,
i posted that my imaginary friend at Asda told me he is in conference at harrogate this week (till at least Saturday) and the delegates are from the buying and sourcing depts. of the company.
just to clear it up, I never said what the conference was about or whether it had any relationship to packaging, for the simple reason, I do not know!!
Not trying to derail you, Tony, i just want it absolutely clear what i did say.
You mayof course, have readit elsewhere, in which case I apologise.
Alan

The Master
That is what was announced at the start of June. That poster has spent weeks (and at times over a year ago) attempting to spread alarm by any means, to suit his own agenda.

Was the placing of ~45m shares @ 8.1p not the last placing to raise ~3.5m?

Garyble ,or deliberatly misleading, depends how you look at it.

The master
That is just a news itemfrom 2 June - old news

2nd June 2006

The Board of Stanelco plc, the radio frequency (RF) applications group, is
pleased to announce the conditional placing by Teather & Greenwood of 46,939,939
ordinary shares ('New Ordinary Shares') at a price of 8.1p per share to raise
approximately GBP 3.8 million (approximately GBP 3.7 million after expenses).

I think that if they issued shares at 8.1p today the share price would have at least got close to the price in trading and that would then be the support level price for .. well at least a few days.

And, if it were true, I thnik that would also herald an imminent contract announcement.

Needless to say, I think it is a load of BS.

Well if it was the June issue, then they have the money to last until any orders come in, so not going bust. Should the ADSA exclusive period ended by now, they could be open for the other UK supermarkets to use their products.

Extract from Tesco's website:

"All Tesco carrier bags will be degradable by the end of September 2006"

There is a world of difference between degradable and biodegradable.
We have discussed this one before and degradable has nothing to do with SEO.
Alan

Knowing Tesco's they would use the cheaper bags (degradable), but M&S/Waitrose may take the biodegradable option.

Alan,

For our sake, they very well may be using the term loosely!

Its a very loose term.
The word degradable can be made to whore itself on the streets in the mouth of a supermarkets PR dept.
Degradable means something which will degrade. it says nothing about how it degrades (Acid, nuclear bombs to destruct it) or what it degrades into (poisonous waste, useless slime, traffic wardens).
Bio-degradable apparantly means it will break down on its own into biological components.
Its probably a lot more complicated than that, but its still a word that you can put your own interpretation on.
Alan

Degradable basically means it will break down into smaller pieces - the smaller pieces are then left to blow around the planet for hundreds of years.

Bio-degradable items completely disappear. Tesco's are very short sighted to follow that degradable rather than bio-degradable route, leaving themselves open to attack by supermarkets who have taken the bio-degradable route (hopefully ASDA).

For what it is worth I have heard that there is a widescale LSE inquiry currently being conducted into the activities of one or more MM's for manipulating sp's to cause volatility - encouraging shorting and denigrating. They would do well to look at SEO in particular on that one.

Oblo,

As per posts on the subject many moons ago, it could be that they are using the term loosely, not knowing that it would be that important to certain SEO investors! when the supplier is revealed, we'll know for sure!
