owl,

You cannot make a silk purse from a sows ear.

This co is no good and never will be, integrity and quality of management is a fundamental requirment and is sadly lacking in this crew.

Having said that, the no of comebacks from the dead leave Lazarus looking like an amateur.

Any investor looking at this one needs to research back at least 7 years to realise just what a pile of poo the share is. Prior to the last name change and consolidation they had more paper in issue than the Bank of England and, if they survive yet again, that's where they will be heading again if any stupid institutions are prepared to back them, or even worse, P I mugs dragged in by 'Penny Share' salesmen can say goodbye to their dough.

tt.

Cash offer of 13p from EMER International Group Ltd seems likely.
Talks continue. Present price of Global Marine 9-3/8 pence.

13 pence per share reverse takeover offer for Global Marine Energy PLC (GME),
44.4 % over closing price of a GME share of 9.0 pence on Sept 27.

Deals coming though at just under 16p as expected.

i.e On Nov 6, EMER upped its original 13 pence per share reverse takeover offer, dated Oct 19, to 16 pence per share, valuing GME at 11.6 mln.

booght in today...seems a 30% profit no brainer

Should be no brainer as you say maestro,
3 deals at over 20,000,000 today.
But ! Needs close monitoring.
We may need to ' do the Hokey Cokey' !

ticking up nicely

yes so so, should reach about 15p based on take over price i.e16p per share

Be very quick to sell!!

If and when it does get to around 15/16p

Absolutely capetown !
The three large deals that went through on the 18th 3 X 20,000,000 were @15.50p so as with all dealing monitor.
% increase since the 12th fine with me it pays for we wii !

heard a whisper that another bidder is prowling... 20p?
