Tax on the sale of shares
http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/MoneyTaxAndBenefits/Taxes/TaxOnSavingsAndInvestments/DG_10013733

was out yesterday afternoon on a technical course (aka golf!) so did not pick up prices until the evening ...... there seemed to be some very strong finishes almost across the board, but have no idea whether they were a true market reflection or merely some heavy squaring away of books for w/e at the auction ..... Monday morning will tell

I actually posted this on HAIK site, but it applies equally to all shares, and in particluar to the likes of SOLA, WCC etc ...... (HAIK may be) on a different exchange but not on a different planet! ...... an article well worth reading in today's Sunday Times biz section - "Briton curbs China bosses".

It's a long article, but a small extract is below ......

".... this year's bubble in the Chinese stock markets could set off a chain of consequences for global investors. Undoubtedly there is going to be a huge correction at some point. It builds up like snow on a mountain."

That does not of course mean all will come tumbling tomorrow or even during the remainder of 2007, but the odds and timing must surely be ever shorter.

another very good article in the Money section of today's Sunday Times ..... Riffing has downloaded the whole in the Griffin Mining thread, but it's fag to read!.

Basically, the article recommended checking out China Shoto, Renesola, Property Minerals (better than WCC, I ask?), Haike and Standard Chartered

GGG almost double money in two months. Currently GGG Bid: 16.5p Offer: 17p Change: 0.75. Brokers predict 26p (or more in some cases). today's trading strong at 2.5 mil.

Information only. PDYOR.

I have bought a small amount of property minerals due to that article cynic--results out at the end of the month--then hopefully this will start going up. certainly massive potential IMO. also bought into WSM a new main market share-which seems to be popular. large company-results should be soon and in the oil services area so I hope I've picked well. this thread has been very quiet lately!

news on BBC (the company not the tv channel)
Town centre securities have increased their holding by a little bit in BBC.
Not that significant and perhaps I read too much between the lines, but BBC reported a strategic review with the possibility of selling the business. Town centre securities are in the business of land and property investment.
Interesting.

Lost a few bob today on SER (and on my birthday) but not worried it will come good in the end.

Clue I was born on the festival of Britain.

PMLH or whatever its code is has been very quiet indeed, but i would certainly prefer it to WCC .... the latter looks far too easy for the Chinese to manipulate; look at today (see thread) with only 918 shares traded!!

Happy Birthday Driver. I have a commemorative coin from the Festival of Britain, it is probably worth as much as my SER shares at the moment! At least there is a good chance that SER will recover and grow in value unlike the coin!

Cheers, four more years for the big one.

Me old mate BBC again. Is something brewing????

LONDON (Thomson Financial) - Real estate company Town Centre Securities PLC said it bought 10,000 shares for 659 pence each and 100,000 shares for 655 pence apiece of UK-based real estate developer Ben Bailey PLC, raising its stake to 400,000 share or about 3.34 pct from 2.42 pct in the company.

Was going to put an order in for CHL at best today while I was work but change my mind I would have paid 65p now 50p they now look good value IMO.

VML Looking good up 11%

Driver,
was going to do likewise[buy CHL] went for top up in HAWK instead, glad i did.
miserable day all around today. plenty of red, some green and one lonely blue in my portfolio. ah well another day another dollar[or 50 cents if my shares keep this pattern up]

who's up for the challenge !

out of apn for now. i've learned the hard way not to ignore stop-losses. bought into hmv as a recovery play. looking to hold for a year or two, (stop permitting). it could be a good time to look at these as they still pay a decent divi and if they can get their on-line downloads act together they could cream the market as they are a much known/trusted brand.

Hi bos, I was looking at those today could be a good play, good luck.

ANTISOMA (ASM) a good time to buy in now 43p

"LONDON, July 3 (newratings.com) - Analyst Mark Clark of ING Financial Markets upgrades Antisoma Plc (ticker: ASM-GBX) from "hold" to "buy." The 12-month target price is set to 65p.

In a research note published this morning, the analyst mentions that the companys share price has declined sharply following the news of Novartis licensing deal worth $890 million for the lead oncology drug ASA404. Within the forthcoming four months, key data would be available for ASA404 in prostate and ovarian cancer, the analyst says."

April 20th they had the same target price of 65p when they downgraded to hold. So comparing the price then and the price now with no other change in status an upgrade to buy seems sensible.

is SMC a good buy at 29 ? Big sella of one an a half million today ? yet no comment from anyone today in the room

johnstonp
Why did BlackRock sell the chart looks a bit of a disaster

GVC
Much less of a gamble than many other 2 bit shares that seem to excite punters ;-)
