PS someone's just Bought 1million....grief that's .......nerves of steel......= about 16 grand.....not a fortune...but enough to make you cry if you lost it.....
Yet, still the price goes down...despite Buys being 3x the Sells....
Incidently I typo my Buy price; it was 1.69 - still not in profit....but...

At the risk of making myself very unpopular, can somebody please tell me what is so green about GS?
So the company has found a new method of package sealing using RF. So what! There are plenty of starch based glues about which are biodegradeable and already used in sealing machines. Why would a packaging company want to spend a fortune on investing in another method of sealing the wrapper to the tray? Retro-fitting would involve a great deal of down time, loss of production and a comensurate loss in revenue.
And of course, if GS is used to seal products, some of these products may not necessarily be biodegradeable - so there's that edge gone as well!
I would have thought that the true value in this company lays in the other products, e.g Starpol etc - but they don't seem to be flying the flag for these as much. Why is that?
I only post these comments as Devil's advocate just so that any newbies out there who might be thinking that this company looks like a good punt at these low levels don't get suckered in by all this green nonsense. And one last thought - be really honest with yourselves, would you be prepared to pay extra at the supermarket checkout just because your pork chop is wrapped in a biodegradeable film? Would you really? I suspect not, and I think the supermarkets concur.

The price is still going down, thus not being controlled by supply and demand.
Buys now 2.76 x sells. Only 4 sell in last 20 transactions but still price is being dropped by the MMs

Don't fall over in shock. I fully support your opinions about this erstwhile interloper who claims to know everything about th future direction of SEO.
He is a charlatan of the highest order.

because, maestro, your unmitigated codswallop makes you damn well deserve it ..... your mother should have followed the Spartans' principle of leaving you out on an exposed hillside as a young baby.
robinhood .... all compliments, whether obscure or backhanded are gleefully accepted.
as for you, young oily, please now send for the oxygen mask, though a shot of top quality armagnac will do in lieu

robin* .... as i have written on several occasions, this is one time when i would truly love to be wrong, but certainly there is nothing so far that indicates other than death and destruction of this company, either by decapitation or by 1000 cuts (i.e. drastic dilution of shareholders' funds through a large and deeply discounted rights issue, or debt for equity swap)

cynic- time will tell and time is also a great healer for whoever gets it wrong -being it long or short on this one. (In the meantime I am enjoying the "leg pulling")

ask the person who just bought? 5,000,000 shares. They must know something that we don't

Evening all.
I'm back, bow legged and boz-eyed from a wonderful weekend on the Wiltshire / berkshire border with the Mrs.
Can't be bothered reading through this lot, but I can guess.
Has anyone seen the news from WM that by 01/02/2007 all their suppliers will have the "tools and processes" for more environmentally packaging available to them?
Probably, and you've probably discussed it to death.
