Bioprogress (BPRG)     

scorpion - 13 Aug 2003 13:54

Bioprogress is a stock I have been in and out of quite a few times since it floated in May but not much mention here on the Investors' Room. Does anyone else follow this stock. I see it is up 1.5p today and a few good buyers seem to have appeared.

Wonder if this was walked up by the MMs on the back of SEO success to shift stock? Following a good start to the day, on the way back down now. There certainly hasn't been anything to support the recent rise.

PTH

I wouldn't be surprised at all if it goes to 44p today, I am talking
to short termers only.

SAM24 - 20 May 2005 14:11 - 1975 of 2372

Buyers are back, I think its good time to buy/top up NOW.

Fred1new - 23 May 2005 11:23 - 1976 of 2372

For those still holding BPRG and/or bought during in following the recent drop, a spot of hope.

Where have the rampers gone like "good news" hyleo ?

Crock of sh*te ... 22p next stop.

Fred1new - 31 May 2005 11:11 - 1978 of 2372

Dil I don't think I would short this now. I think this drop back is due to change of CEO and appraisal which seems ?fair. As before it will be a slow return to the crazy heights of before. But the "products" are useful and required in the medical field.

May be wrong but I will hold what I got for a tad longer.

Sequestor - 31 May 2005 11:26 - 1979 of 2372

dragged down by fall in drugs market

Dil - 31 May 2005 11:26 - 1980 of 2372

The change in CEO was positive news Fred. My sentiments are the opposite , I wouldn't like to be long with the amount of uncertainty knocking about.

Big Al - 31 May 2005 12:14 - 1981 of 2372

38p had to hole methinks. Might be looking to return to 30-32p soon?

Dil - 31 May 2005 12:30 - 1982 of 2372

This afternoon would be nice Al ... I would overtake Kayak in the Champions investor game then :-)

ateeq180 - 01 Jun 2005 13:44 - 1983 of 2372

LOVELY NEWS I THINK,AND LOOK AT THE PRICE AS ITS RECOVERED SOME WHAT FROM TODAYS LOWS.

Fred1new - 01 Jun 2005 17:41 - 1984 of 2372

DIl were you shot sorry short?

Big Al - 01 Jun 2005 21:19 - 1985 of 2372

LOL Fred.

Seriously question - how many more deals such as today's might they have? Would be worth a quick calculation. Can't see that buying all this stuff back and issuing more shares is that clever short to medium term, but there are others far better than me at working this stuff out.

Cheers,
Al
;-)

Dil - 02 Jun 2005 19:31 - 1986 of 2372

Many times Fred , in out in out ... shake it all about :-)

Wondered why they went up a bit yesterday Al but couldn't be ar*ed to look , they signed another deal thats going to revolutionise the world then ?

Dil - 02 Jun 2005 19:48 - 1987 of 2372

Al , if you bought 5million of convertable bonds the sold them back 8 months later for the equivalent of 3.3million (half cash / half shares) then I would suggest that either you were desperate and broke or that you were trying to salvage what you could of your original investment before the whole lot went down the pan along with the company you bought them in.

Could be that the 1.65million of shares are about to be dumped on the market ... anyone got another angle on this ?

Dil - 02 Jun 2005 20:17 - 1988 of 2372

And to describe someone that has turned 5 million into 1.65 million cash and 1.65 million in shares of a company that is nose diving as "a leading institutional investor" is a bloody joke.

What they leading in ... wealth destruction ?

22p here we come.

Big Al - 03 Jun 2005 10:24 - 1989 of 2372

Glad my dosh isn't with that "institutional investor". ;-))

Must be why I do my own stuff now! LOL

ateeq180 - 04 Jun 2005 23:44 - 1990 of 2372

When is the agm,if any one can let us know.Thanks

Dil - 04 Jun 2005 23:59 - 1991 of 2372

Dunno , when's the 13th next fall on a Friday ?
