all done. i did a compare and contrast look at seo chart and asc chart last night.the similarities are quite striking. as for any takeover bid, i dont see it. at least not yet. seo is very difficult to value as it is basically all about future potential and earnings. i wish i could buy nml, eric, but any spare cash i had i put into seo last friday. wish i had waited until monday, but.....i am very overwieght now. ( need to go to the gym , more:) )

Eric, didn't really join the shorters, just used part of my holding to gamble on being able to lock-up some profits and buy back my shares later in the day.
In reality I let them accumulate more stock for me at a lower price!! so hopefully Driver won't be too cross!!! Havn't got the nerve to risk too much trading though, especially as I still believe we are at the start of something very big with SEO.

I will go and stand in the corner and look at the wall !! then take a look at my SEO shares and locked in profit and think nice one. As I said the other day, long-term the SEO faithful will be laughing and nothing shorters can do will change the direction SEO are heading but with such an attack as yesterday I joined in the fun. Sorry folks!!! Back to being an investor today with similar holding in SEO as I started the week with but more cash.

shorters borrow shares from nominee accounts to sell. thats why all investors should insist on a share certificate to keep these leeches where they belong.

Superrod,
Most of the main brokers won't deal without a certificate held in a nominee account, if i see a chance to make a profit by going short then i will do and so would most investers it's all part of the game.

Good morning
There have just been 4 lots of sales of about 45000 shares each. the second two were mine, the 45271 was selling from my trading account and the 44,300 (ish) was buying into my ISA, looking at the figures for the first two i would assume this was a similar transaction. Because it is basically transferring shares from one account to another the spread is greatly reduced and the purchase appears as a sell.
Basically, all I am saying is that if a lot of people do this today it may make the screen look distorted with a predominance of red.
Best wishes
Nick

Since today is the first day of the new financial tax year, it's bound to be a quiet time across the board. Probably the same tomorrow?
Also with the General Election imminent, I personally think that volumes will be very low (and that usually means red!) until the "morning afterwards" especially if the result looks like being too close to call. The outcome affects us all!

Farn - at the end of last year the 50dma crossed the 200dma in what my learned friends tell me is called a golden cross - a strong buy signal which has remained so ever since. Although now the daily price is hovering precious near the 50dma, bringing it nearer a hold until we see some decisive move (one way or t'other) out of the current box - although it might be considered a brave buy whilst new tax year and election announcement dull the prices all round. IMHO DYOR etc.
