I don't know SD, all too often WE all get into something to late to make good profit. The point that we have been trying to make is that there is a chance here to be in at the start of something that could be very big. Some of us lucky ones were in at 4-6p but 20p is still cheap for the future.

Because a terrible terrorist attack could knock out a major stock exchange or paralyse a major european/american city?
Because a tidal wave could engulf London or New York?
Because there are corporate scandals and bear shorters around every corner?
Because of the threat posed to world financial institutions by the chinese currency?
etc.etc.
The investor has become jittery and wants quick profits because no one knows what tomorrow may bring.Moving your money around quickly from one rave stock to the next is more exciting than sitting for years watching the same shares slowly move upwards.
It is hard to put small cap shares into a portfolio and leave it to mature for five years,for example without taking profits.
The stockmarket ,like the internet,is full of gamblers out to make a quick buck,and if you can avoid paying taxes the better it is!!!

So Andysmith we agreee - 20p is a great price to buy/be in for the next mid to long term period (however you personally estimate that), but not for the short term I think anymore. In fact, I am rather relying on many many investors and institutions buying in here and higher, so that my holding goes up in value.
Whilst, in an understated and considered way, saying that SEO is a fabulous business and therefore investment prospect, I was also making the point that personal circumstance is equally imperative to the investment making decision process. I am truly happy having so much money invested in such a good opportunity. But I can neither invest more myself, nor criticise today's sellers for we each have our personal circumstance to respond to.
Ethel - lighten up for God's sake. Of course it's hard. Of course we're all gonna die. We're just trying to make the short span allotted to each of us materially more comfortable - it's not a religion!

Just trying to answer your question SD.
I am soooo happy that I bought some of these lovely SEO's for my old age...does that sound lighter?

if I went to church as many times as I visited this site I would probably be up for filling the latest vacancy in rome. so it's more than a religion

There you go - what did I tell ya. Di is out and may well be right, because she has an alternative home for her dosh with which she is comfortable. I've no idea about GFM, except Di's holding in itself would make me go and research it immediately. However, like watcher, I am getting religion in my old age and have foresworn the pleasures of gazing upon the naked form of a stock I have no funds to purchase.
These days, of course, my attention is less upon the eternal city than watcher though. In Rome they may be electing a new Pop. But in Venice they're blessed by a Dog! ( joke to lighten up Ethel - LOL :D)
woof, woof,

I have got plenty in return from Firestone diamonds and Griffin mining so far.

I have the feeling that sd is becoming something of a spiritual director as he advises some of the wayward souls visiting this bb. There are some hard-nosed chaps around like andysmith and driver; constant in their love affair with SEO.. But ethel appears to think that everyone is in it for a quick buck. Well, she's right of course as one of the options. The question is whether you take the quick buck or the fairly quick 2-buck or the medium speed 5-buck or the rather slower 10-buck. But I am also of the opinion that SEO will be 1 before the end of the year which is a pretty rapid 5-buck from here or 15-buck from where I came in. SEO is compared to ASOS. SEO's growth will be exponential because of a combination of market penetration, utilising bought in resources, and the royalties from each sale in subsequent years. In a way, I am diluting my holding because I am not building a pyramid on my CFD holding in SEO but rather re-investing the margin generated, most recently in ASC, NLR and BGT. But the point that needs to be stressed is that, within the last few weeks, SEO has revealed its strategy and this will lead to accelerating growth with corresponding increase in infrastructure. If anyone doesn't appreciate this point, say so and it can be spelt out. There is no way that the sp is going to hang around this level because the professional investors are beginning to twig the real message about SEO.
This leads me to a specific message for Dynamite. I think you have been distracted by the kids and need a wee homily from Uncle Eric! There may be an occasional swing down in SEO, as today, but the current sp of 21p to 22p will be left behind very quickly. I would not want you to be out of the share. OK, there are shares which hit the market, have a good run and then you move on. But, please redo your homework, study Tim Freeborn of Evolution if you have access; if not, look again at the projections from andysmith and myself on this bb and the upward revisions in the light of recent announcements and get back to an overweight position. Never mind that there is a gap between your selling price and the buy back figure, that will be small against the ultimate gain. Religion and faith don't come into it, although it is an expression of confidence in a management team who are unfolding a brilliant strategy to exploit their technological lead.
A final point for those not really into SEO but appraising the action. There have been a huge number of posts on this board and you can miss the overall picture. If in doubt, come back with specific queries - as pisces for instance querying whether SEO could cope with the volume build-up. They are utilising some of the top industry skills from other companies, sitting at the centre pulling the strings. Brilliant! The potential numbers are mind-boggling! I am absolutely certain that there is not a parallel opportunity in the market.
