Morning all.

Good morning all

Markets on a good mood now, and most likely could turn into a bounce back, after the last two weeks of volatile movements ( mainly down )

Maybe a 1/4% rise on the interest rates on the US would do some good to the weak $ and then add support to the stock market in general

GGG 16.25p +0.375p

continuing the bounce on expected drilling news soon

FAO 3.4 / 3.6p +0.10p

Further move up at both sides, bouncing on what it seems a double bottom on the last month chart

           JOKE OF THE DAY

I'm Innocent!
"How is it that you can't get a lwyer to defend you?"
the judge asked the prisoner.

"Well, yer honor, it's like this.
As soon as those lawyers found out I didn't steal the money,
they wouldn't have anything to do with me."

       

GGG 17.25p / 17.50p+1.5p

Looking into the trades, there are 2 x 150K buys from earlier @ 16.50p. and then a 750K @ 17.75p, a 0.25p premium to the offer price, no wonder that the MM EVO was so strong on bidding all the time with higher bid.
