Lol THS!
kim

Think Alan's planning to complete his move a little sooner than that, Kim!

this is not a deramp but i keep thinking ( and thats a very hard thing to do for me)as we (SEO) have such wounderfull products that are going to help save the planet, why??? hasn't a company that works along the same lines as SEO bought SEO for very little, ??are SEOs goods not as good or as cheap as we are to beleive, i don't know just shareing my thoughts

Automatic.
Until 7 Nov the Directors and close associates held or controlled (probably) 30%. They knew the real prospects and if they were bright (the prospects, not the Directors!) they would have resisted all but the most compelling offer, which would have had to be very very high if it was to reflect their expectations of the future. A hostile bid in these circumstances would, IMO, have failed.

Afterall, no Directors/associates sold when the SP was in the high 20ps showing a 7fold increase in a few months - they were holding on for more!

But 7 Nov was Stenalco's 9/11. A new order now exists. So why not?

cheers , just bought another 107,000 i keep thinking of all the bad things but still HOPE & think they may come good even if under another name?

Automatic,

IMO SEO has only been been in the bio sector for a relatively wee while {2 years} and have only in recent times moved from R&D to Commercialisation. We saw the sp high of ~30p on expectation of the potential people believed at that time; most would say the potential is still there and very much closer to realisation.

Also mentioned several times by a few was the lack of real institutional interest. well the lack could have been due to the price being too high and still mostly potential.

Now there is significant institutional interest, to which some have said the company will be sold in the short to medium term, once house put in order.

Also, the packaging issue is only just taking hold, so all basically down to timing and price: 250m for a company only showing potential = gamble, or 150m for a company with contracts and a serious forecast = massive profit!

For several days SCAP appeared to be leading the mm's on the chase for your shares. If you look at the inactivity on L2 there is as much interest at the moment in buying/selling as there is on this thread. No one wants to take the lead in making any sort of a market. Scaps own bid is 1.25p so they don't have much in the way of orders to fill. None of the other mm's are interested.
It doesn't look like moving much at all now.
Don't usually try to guess were it's going but stagnation looks the order of the day till further news.
Looks like the market is as much in the dark as to which way this is heading as the rest of us.
Like watching paint dry but not as interesting.
Maybe next week or the one after or the one,.........
Have a good weekend all

Stanelco plc ('the Company')

Notifiable Interest

The Company was notified by a letter dated 16 November 2006 that UBS AG, acting
through its business group and legal entities detailed below, no longer has a
notifiable interest in the issued share capital of the Company.

at least we have confirmation of what I'm sure everyone must have been thinking yesterday.
kim

Well I guess that the RNS below scotches all the rumours that HW had sold his shares yesterday.

Now I wonder who has bought or intends to buy those 250m odd shares sold yesterday?

The oily one

So it was UBS selling - some anyway, as they could still be holding up to 89million shares.

ah, there you all are!

Hi - A section in Shares Mag today - "Stanelco Rockets as institutes buy"
Chief Exec Martin Wagner expects substancial progress in both Greenseal and Starpol fronts in the next few months.

Here's hoping !!!!

UBS reported on 8 Nov two holdings. My guess is their London Office took up 118,777,063 shares (950k) in the Firm Placing (including Clawback) and, assuming it was this entire holding disposed of yesterday, have made about a two thirds of a million quid on their money in the 6 weeks since 6 Oct.

That should get someone a nice top-up to their Xmas bonus.

Or the sack if SEO go to 5p by Xmas Tony!

Clients of UBS AG, will probably be quite satisfied with a profit of approx 60% within 9 days.
Companies such as UBS AG, don't take the blue sky or bust risks that we small time private investors sometimes take.
I presume most of you have several such type shares, (I have 5 in total of a portfolio of 9). If 1 makes say 400% profit in 2 years and the other 4 go bust I am even, providing that I have same amount invested in each share. So I invest a proportion of my share capital in such shares knowing the risk expecting some of them to give nil returns. That is my investing philosophy.
Companies that invest your money don't face much flak if they make a steady profit for their clients. But if they risk too high, said clients always remember the dud among the steady profit makers. Think what their clients are looking for, a steady increase in profits makes them happy. Thats what they they pay their management fees for.
If you want this type of investment, look for a FTSE 100 tracker, hibernate for a couple of years, wake up and count your probable 10/20 percent profit.
Me I want that excitement and buzz from the higher risk, once my main blue chip investments were secure (well as secure as possible) I made my choice and will make that big score or take the hit. Thats not to say the odd big knock doesn't leave me feeling totally !!!!!
UBS and similar are not big risk takers. Look at TB of The Penny Share Guide, I am sure he still thought SEO would make it but he could not take the risk of them going belly up, so his recommendation turned from a buy to a hold to a sell.
If they had gone bust and he was still promoting them, it would have damaged his reputation for years. Punters always remember the disasters more than the successes.
So I am not that concerned re UBS.
Obviously the above is my personal opinion only and in the case of T.B especially I may be completely wrong.

spoke to some city types tonight...they expect stanelco to be the biggest riser in 2007...one said it would be a 20 bagger by xmas 2007

City types?
Sound more like Channel Island type.
But we live in hope....

Maestro

On thursday you forecast sub 1p.

Now you promote the opposite view.

Which is it?

Tony / greekman - Even though UBS may have made 60% or so out of these recent transactions, do you really believe that all of that will wend its way to their clients ?

How on earth do the bonuses get paid ? Not by being philanthropic or equitable that's for sure !
