Previously Crown Corp, CCO. Institutional interest now and the Co has changed it's name for a fresh beginning. Still very speculative, but what isn't? but just a case of investing the huge amount of Cash sitting in a Brazilian bank a/c. There's no real difference here to an emerging markets investment fund apart from the obvious and very attractive discount to NAV of approx 75% !!!!!

ALL,
insider-outside is a total W@NKER ! he gets a kick out of de-ramping and spreading lies to scare-monger investors. See for yourself by visiting the SEO BB's on AD_FN..his got his own de-ramping thread.
Total T@sser ! hope he really gets fried when the shares start trading again

I don't think it's going to be long now and the shares when trading begins will almost certainly go thro the roof if everything's as previously reported, it's stirrring a lot of interest.

no-one knows how long this extension is going to be because Padley/Pearson don't know themselves.
hopefully it'll be nearer 4weeks than 1 which would mean there is more chance of full property valuation from DTZ and other bolt-on acquisitions being announced at same time...

Redmayne Bentley Stockbrokers recent consultation with Pearson, sums it all up and i believe it is Pearsons way of keeping small investors at ease and a warning to ignore the vast majority of bulletin board comments.
Enjoy!!!!

very strong rumours from 3 seperate sources that we will get an RNS late this week/early next week.
i trust these sources but cannot guarantee 100% obviously...

i have just completed a speed read of this thread, being the first time i have taken the trouble to open it.
such a disappointment to find the last page (the outcome...if there is a final outcome) of the thriller is not there.
i am full of excitement/tension .....and i do not own a single share.
would i buy at 50p outside the market , as could be done. my answer is "no". i feel there is a liability about somewhere which reduces the value of the shares to no more than 50p
could the company have given a financial quarantee of some form ....could there be a form of lien on the assets in one or more of the bank accounts.
the cash may well be there .......but is it free , clean cash
one other point is whether there are any generous options floating around ?

They have stated the monies are free of all charges and liens ,all the shares are now common shares ,give Pearson time to do the job in hand !

R33skyline thankyou for your remarkable response guidance via posting 283 - i did not absorb everything during my speed read !
appears we are both early birds........or late ones. i just cannot get my clock into line .....but here i was at my city desk at 9 a.m. to-day.

The only thread worth reading on LGB is at ADVFN :

It's just factual info which will put shareholders minds at rest. Forget all the other crap, I have had personal confirmation from Pearson myself on several of the points.

Hi akel44
A recent write-up it might be, but it doesn`t say anymore than anybody already knows from the start of the suspension. I hope this isn`t the first time the Independent have caught up with this or someone in the business section should be linched ! Lets just wait and see. Obe

As a small time private investor who was hoping to make this a profitable hobby / living, this will set me back a long way. I`ve got 10k tied up in these, that money is borrowed money, thankfully on a really low interest rate.
I know the saying is "don`t gamble what you can`t afford", but I have and I really would like a ******* update on this. After all, Christmas is coming !
Hope you`re in a better situation than me on these. Obe
