Will only cover stocks bought in the present month the last thread was getting too big and weighted down by one argument on one company. seperate threads are set up for each company from the old thread.

Buys this Month.

Telecolm Plus Results due Friday and has made an excelent start as a new buy. Now through the important 350p resistance barrier.

Sci Entertainment Another company which has an update coming and is up on the buy price. Latest trading update mentioned sales well above budget.

Bema Gold A little gem of a gold miner and has surged on the back of the increasing POG, star of the Month.

Thistle Mining A speculative punt and one which leapt 41% in one day on back of new drilling results. I lopped the top of this one when increase from buy was circa 34%. Rest left in as a gamble on POG.

Caldwell Investments Nothing Spectacular here but still up on buy price. If its good enough for Jim Slater and Evil Knievil, its good enough for me.

CardPoint Latest buy and just ahead of buy price. Been tipped by the Red Hot Penny Shares and also Citywire.

Stocks On The Watch List

Wolfeson Micro, Radstone Technology, Proteome Sciences, Fulcrum Pharma, Severfield Rowen, Deltex medical, M L Labs, NAP - Porvair.

Any comments on the portfolio welcome.

cheers GF.

Don't seem so awful yourself GF! Added Caldwell to my watchlist, good prospects i think, so will someone please sell and knock the price back a bit to let me in! Cheers!

Opened two speculative new positions today and both are momentum plays, so I wont be doing any research in depth.

Firstly I bought into Bioprogress BPRG as I think the price today on news of the placing has gone south too far and I hope to see them moving north again soon.

Secondly I opened a new position in Gaming Corporation GMC online casino operation as I have been told that Evil K has gone long today and thinks the management are top class and sees the price moving much higher. Evil K has been getting some excelent returns from his longs this year.

please dyor.

cheers GF.

nb, sold a large part of my holding in SEG for a nice profit, they dont seem to be able to get over the 120p resistance line.

I think Thistle Mining is a disaster area - anyone holding these should exit quick.jmop

what about IDD goldfinger?

Zscrooge,

Well I guess that would depend on when you bought or sold, but the chart doesn't look too good at the moement.

Think its a game of patience with I D Data. I am hoping as ever to hear that the big Banks are now ordering the new cards. Up date, shouldnt be far off.

Thistle mining I have already made a profit on these and the others are there for free. There is supposed to be a production update anytime. Problem with this one is the relationship between the rand and the dollar. Edited, the update slipped past me it was on the 2nd. Profits turned into a loss and rand affecting the companys results. There are some positives in the report for the future but I will now sell the remaining holding.

Gaming Corporation is getting news up and down the boards tonight. Talk of several big buyers going in. Well I certainly know Evil K has just purchased 100,000.

cheers Gf.

This is an interesting snippet from Robbie Burns the frequenttrader.......

"I've been speaking to my friend today, the famous stock market historian David Schwartz. He's been telling me that generally markets go down between December the 3rd and 13th and then start to rise just before Xmas and again between Xmas and the new year".ENDS.

Well the last two days have been poor ones for me and the previous month as been fatastic. Perhaps the trend started a little earlier this year?.

cheers GF.

Following on from GFs GMC tip, it has also featured in today's Shares
mag!...

Evil Knievil buys into Gaming Corporation

Legendary short-seller Simon 'Evil Knievil' Cawkwell is understood to have
taken a stake in online gaming firm Gaming Corporation (AIM:GMC) as part of
its latest placing.

Cawkwell, perhaps best known for spread betting against stocks rather than
investing in them, has taken a sub-3% stake in Gaming as part of the
company's recent 520,000 placing, which increased the equity by 19.5%.

Other new investors include the Marlborough Special Situations fund, managed
by Giles Hargreave, and all the company's executive directors increased
their holdings.

Hargreave's Special Situation fund is the second fund with a link to the
Marlborough name to invest in Gaming, as M D Barnard, which manages
Marlborough's UK Equity Growth Fund, had a 9.37% stake before the placing.

The money was raised in order to build a small war chest to look at UK-based
companies in the sector to acquire, as well as to meet a certain level of
institutional demand.

Taking the net proceeds of the placing, and the company's cash balance as at
the end of September, it gives the company an acquisition fund of around
700,000.

The company - which owns the casino.co.uk domain name among others -
recently reported reduced pre-tax losses of 733,534 against 2.51 million
last year.

House broker Evolution Beeson Gregory has no numbers in the market place at
the moment, although it is understood that the company's operating division
is now profitable on a month-by- month basis.

One to watch.

Gaming Corporation already 15% up. Well worth a bite at the cherry.

cheers GF.

Long Wolfson, one of your watchlist. (WLF). Decided today's markdown too good an opportunity to miss. Twenty successive years of rising profits as a private company. Quality business worth this rating and more.

Yup, seems a wise move Hawick. I was set for going into these into these in the high 140s and then just missed it. The last RNS on growth looks very promising indeed. Humm lets see if they fall any further.

cheers gf.

Bad day for the Gold stocks but overall prices moving north. Glad to see I D Data a tad up.

cheers GF.

Bad day for gold stocks?

Have you seen Oxus Gold?

Have you seen Marakand?

You must be joking!

No Im not aimtrader. Take a look at World Gold Stocks today.

cheers GF.

Nice to see SVR finish the week strong on what has been a poor week for me and I would guess a lot of investors. Lets hope for better next week. Have a good weekend.

cheers GF.

Regs,

Goldfinger,

I see gold stocks had a beter day!

$406 US close.

Goldfinger,

I think gold stocks may do better on Monday!

Oxus / Marakand situation starting to look quite interesting!

Andy, yup no problem on the short term front and yes If you can make the money take it. I have no problems with that and I hope you have done well out of your investments and I am sure you have already.

Just one thing though andy and as a pal Im just going to give you a bit of an experienced warning. ( ive been in mining shares for over 20 years)

Every " tom dick and Harry are on OXUS" a lot dont have a clue about the ins and outs of mining. Yup there just there because its the next big thing. Sounds a bit like the dot com boom, yup you must know.

Now if the price of POG does tank beleiveve me there are so many shorters lined up for it and thats a fact and guess who is the target, yup you guessed right Oxus and shortely followed by Avocet which I own and I have to say feel uneasy about.

OK and I hope like a lot of Gold Bugs we go on to $600 but I dont see it that way. Already the european idiots are talking about devaluing the the EURO to suit the French and the Germans.

Lets stay good pals and see what happens.

Many thanks and cheers GF.
