Considerable number of buys and yet the price doesn't move - why?
Just some good news and those shorters would be stuffed - that would make my day!!

I shall send it again. Seems to have got lost in the ether.
However, having spoken at length to somebody yesterday afternoon, I have decided to wait a day or two before sending the proposed message; it seems we are very close to an announcement and my rather to the point questioning on their management skills would only be an unnecessary distraction for them right now.
Anyway, having slept on it, there are other questions which will be added if the fundraising does not go as well as intimated in their RNS yesterday.
Hope that's clear.
And to the person to whom I spoke yesterday, thanks very much for your measuread and rational input.
The oily one

I am but an innocent and naive child, so please somebody tell me why in my screen of 25 trades there are buys totalling 23m shares against a total of 30.5m shares traded (many of the rest of which are also buys) and the bloody price drops .04p!
Manipulation to fill somebody's order?

Times Stock Market report page 75 today states:-
"Stanelco . . . fell . . . to 0.96p on confirming it is in the final stages of a fund-raising at 0.8p, against the 1p previously mooted. Stanelco is expected to accompany details of the rights issue - said to have secured at least 13 million - with a contract win."
Nothing absolute, but the Times does not ususally print unsubstantiated rumour. "Rights issue" - what, for all of us - that'll be the day.
Like the reference to "contract win".

Almost there, I did say wait for financing did I not as this would only happen now IF there was credible good news, without it they are gone.
Recent shares articles about shorting absolutely correct if trading is your game.
The company had reducing cash, no orders and is running out of backers.
I said sell from 18p, again at 12p then 8p and recently at 3p with a wait for re-financing note but apparently I was wrong??? Personally I have no agenda to short a company although I could be minted if I had done this on SEO.
Recent shares articles about potential recovery stock was also right so they have covered both strategies and that is what their magazine is for so tough shit if one side doesn't take your fancy, it is a magazine with articles and opinions and you make your own choices.
SEO, a money-maker for the lucky ones last year, a disaster for the blind this, I wonder what the future holds???

Are you tempted then Andy or is still too hot... If there is a substancial contract win I think its more by luck than by excellent management negotiations... I could be tempted but not sure we have found the bottom yet..

Nice post Andy, but I prefer stockdogs. First mention of a truly likely contract a source of The Times standing.

Do you two like the sound of your own voices?
Any connection with New York? (Oh, work it out for yourselves!)

Really depends on the contract if it is a contract, Doubt you would get institutions willing to invest 13 million if there wasn't a significant contract in the wings... Could be a great chance to make some money, time will tell and this is only for the brave (not sure i'm that brave)...

Strange that FT.com does not say anything about, supposedly, the contract win

OB,
Re your last post (Geoff Hoe) and comment....... "IMO Mr Ho's posts fall far short of what I would consider professional".
I fully agree,and that one sentence sums his post up completely.
