Dam it i neglected that today, too much going on .

Frampton - 02 Dec 2005 16:07 - 712 of 1184

I just sold 3/4s of my holding for 97p. I'll have a think over the weekend what to do with the rest. I'm sure there will be more shorting next week as this still looks very risky so I'm not sure whether I'll hang on to any. Anyhow this has still made me very relieved to get anything back and I have a bottle of champagne chilling for later to celebrate (losing thousands, but not anywhere near as much as I thought last week).

jimmy b - 02 Dec 2005 16:18 - 713 of 1184

Funny Frampton ,but that's just what i'm going to do , celebrate my loss,,usually i'd be pissed off ,but in the light of what could have happened ,i'll just get pissed..

Frampton - 02 Dec 2005 16:43 - 714 of 1184

Yeah, the champagne was meant for when production started, c'est la vie.

hlyeo98 - 02 Dec 2005 18:39 - 715 of 1184

I agree...there will be more shorting next week...partly due to poor communications with its shareholders...initially management said production is in line with schedule...next it got suspended with no warning...now 90p...but i don't think BFC will have much confidence and support from its shareholders. 70p likely next week.

stockdog - 02 Dec 2005 19:39 - 716 of 1184

Not a holder - luckily sold out a month or so back when it hit a sort of stop loss at around 140p. (Also sold out of DOO - wish I'd been brave enough to get back into that at its recent low and taken a quick opportunistic profit!))

Reading between the lines and seeing the repayment date of the Bank borrowing - next year(!), BFC must be contemplating waiting till the plant is fully operational and then replacing their Bank borrowing with some serious equity fund-raising - so anticipate a big dilution at that point.

On that basis, I would be looking to get out at the top of the first bounce (whenever you think that is!) and getting into something with much less inherent risk.

All IMHO and good luck to all survivors.

Could heve gone in at 80p last Friday.

ahoj - 05 Dec 2005 10:37 - 723 of 1184

you could..
I made a big mistake when I sold my over 3600 QXL shares at 315 and accepted a very big loss over a year ago... If I remember correctly, It was my biggest holding at the time.... I could be rich now.

jimmy b - 05 Dec 2005 10:39 - 724 of 1184

ahoj ,let me know how many you buy ? good luck.

driver - 05 Dec 2005 10:51 - 725 of 1184

ahoj
Just to rub salt into the wound you would have had 327600 worth of QXL shares if you had held.

jimmy b - 05 Dec 2005 11:00 - 726 of 1184

Driver ,just to rub salt in to the wound ,if you'd been born with the name Bill Gates you would have 40 billion ,, you would'nt half be a geek though !!

Bones - 05 Dec 2005 11:31 - 727 of 1184

and who says any bid will be over a 1 ? They'd be mad with all that debt overhanging the balance sheet, but there's nowt as queer as folk :)

Frampton - 05 Dec 2005 11:37 - 728 of 1184

I wouldn't be buying right now, but I don't mind if people keep pushing up the price, so I can cut and run!

driver - 05 Dec 2005 11:41 - 729 of 1184

jimmy
How do you know Im not Bill Gates.
