They're spending money and committing to more expense with the agreement. More potential but nothing concrete and so investors hold back to do some additional research to find out if it was a good deal or not.

A fall of 4% is a worry.

Timing the bottom is impossible, but you can buy value for a longterm hold : this is a good one...I'm expecting at least 150p before the end of the year...we need a little bit of good news to turn ftse and sorts around.

I wasn't criticising the buying of the share but rather more the attitude that supports it. Around 93p does indeed look as though it may be a place to buy but AFR will simply follow the market and if we are going to double-bottom then christ knows where this is going. What did it reach before, around 18p or so?
However, anyone who thinks that buying a stock is 'easy money' will surely get burnt to a cinder in this market. I seem to remember Marni having a similar view and unless he was banned from the site, no doubt he is now trying to find shelter in a field somewhere!

Warren Buffet buys when he feels the SP is at bargain levels.
Morgan Stanley has increased their holdings crossing the 3%(3.45%) threshold.

This company is totally different company to when they went to 20p. The last price rise and fall was based around the oil price mostly and yes the markets.
Not many oil and gas companies with prospects over the next two years and beyond as good as afren. 100,000 bopd by end of 2012! 3.50 - 5.00 imho.
P.S My portfolio was up 93% last year. Burn`t bigtime.
