Oh B*gg*r 21%gone still virtually no reaction in shares traded (thank goodnes)so far!

Is there any real interest in this share
looks like I picked another looser the rate I am loosing money I won't have cash left to back a winner.

douggie

join the club.im going bust

Join the club?I thought I started it! ;o\

Am I deluding myself thinking that there must be a promising future for this share, I am reluctant to sell at a loss, but don't want to hold a failing share

You must give the company a chance, read what is said in their report, next set of results will be very different..........I am buying now while they are cheap. A new contract will make all the difference.

Seems to me a 26% reduction in share price somewhat over reaction, trades as thin as ever little reaction here.........

of course I am biased now findig myself with a 55% paper loss

sagem
agreed

douggie
unless the money is really needed I wouldn't sell, this time last year the share price was 3p
It will rise again on the further good news, just as it has fallen on this ,as the market sees it bad news.

rampage thanks I won't sell at this price ... just wish I'd bought at 3p and experienced last years rocket ride rather than 6mth ago down to here, so often it seemed new rise was imminent..... wish I had cash to buy now!
