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 !

Why not just stick it in a high interest return account? No anxiety and 5% better than even.

Where did I suggest a gain of 0.6 million would reach clients or anyone specific?

But I did say that Xmas bonuses might be increased.

Read back - then tell us all if I said otherwise, or that someone is fantacising.

It would be interesting to know which.

Interesting article on the BBC news this morning, have a listen when you all rise !
"The Gov'n is under pressure to bring in a tax on all products produced that need a landfill site to be disposed of, this will bring us in line with Germany, Sweden and many other countries. Items such as, raxor blades, cameras and cartons"
Think we pay enough tax, but right behind this one !!!!!!

Dave

NEVER VOTE FOR A TAX RISE OF ANY SORT THE TAXRISERS ALWAY MISSUSE THE MON EY FOR THEIR OWN PET PROJECTS///// AFOOL AND HIS MONEY SPRING TO MIND/

Bristles I quite agree. Should have any modern hospitals. Should have kept the good old workhouses for the lazy old buggers.

Tony,

No-one stated that and I certainly wasn't inferring that anyone had.

I was asking a rhetorical question and my phrasiology should have made that clear by using "I doubt anyone ..." rather than "Do you ....".

Apologies if I tweaked a ganglion.

Alfa.

No problem - still got the Family Bible !

Anything to do with SEO, do you think?

zscrooge,

Re your comment Why not just stick it in a high interest return account? No anxiety and 5% better than even.
I was just stating a point.
My portfolio as I said is spread between SEO type shares and blue chip (my other 4), so a portion is that big gamble. I also have cash in a high interest account.
The thing is I don't find money sitting in such accounts as interesting (if you see what I mean).

nyleve,

Following on from your post, saw that Tetrapak was one company whose products were highlighted.
One of the targeted products would be the Tetra Pak carton. More than 2 billion are produced in the UK each year and the report states they can be difficult to recycle because they are often made of layers of cardboard, plastic and foil.

any one else having problems buying shares this morning - I can't even get 50,000
