Been catching up on the latest posts, some excellent stuff.
Eric not sure about the 4 month delay with ASDA,page 43
from the Biotec aquisition document concerning Greenseal.
States 14 days from the 23rd March, also goes on to say,
that they can terminate this agreement if targets are not
met.
regards

Oily Hi,
If as I suggested, the MM's have lowered the price to fill big orders, that fits in my book, as there were big orders, at very good prices, you know institutions never pay the ask price, more lik mid price :)
I agree with you that news is likely but as a 'trading update' on the day of the EGM, typical use of a meeting is to sneak in updates, rather than beforehand, unless there is a deal to announce that is, in which case it will happen when it happens, they cannot delay such announcements, if they know, the market has to know at the same time.
Cheers,
PM

We are getting a very healthy re-test of the 38% fib retracement
candle volume down from 22 is very narrow ie the retracement is not on much volume. It all looks very good and in line for a nice support on the uptrend line from feb

This really is bobbing around today - could it be that MM's are doing a tree shake? - if that is the right term ?

no really the right term, but the right sentiment. please remember than since htis is order driven it means the stock is now ORDER DRIVEN! the MM's can mess around and try and control the stock but it is the punters who are leading the way.
today is a no news day. A few stale sellers around and not too much convincing buying. a perfect day to job a few hundred thousand shares for a quarter of a penny....
news will move this next, lack it it will see a slow drift.

unusual. a few weeks ago the drop below 20p created a little bit of panic. today everyone seems calm. or are we now back to investors and the traders have f**ked off to pastures new?

Bad luck, bos and baza - know how you feel. I have learnt to close positions on a down run whilst still positive but still heavily diluted. The guys who are gaining are the brokers on their commission. But we will be the big winners! Once again, I will use the margin to add on the rise and hopefully this will lead to either a break through or a continuous rise on the long-term trend.
sharesure - I'm a cfd holder rather than shareholder; perhaps I should buy a regulatory single share which would then be taken as a strong buying code in the market and the price would rocket! lol! Will look forward to your feedback.
Typical ii - produces a selective chart showing the share retracement only without the previous rise. snip has a much better view seeing a fibonnaci retracement of 38% but also the return to a trend line from february. Not surprising that there has been a gradual easing of the sp during August with most institutional investors away on hols and short-term traders closing positions. Significant that SEO have chosen Wednesday after the bank holiday for their meeting when they should get all the sun-tanned analysts back, drooling at the lips. I note that Evo did in fact up-date their forecast on 8th August (as did Fyshe Horton Finney) raising the projection for 2006 to a pbt of 6m or 0.5p per share. sp should move ahead from 30th August so this week might be good time to buy.

If you're going to the meeting, make sure you go on Tuesday which is the 30th and not on Wednesday!
Don't you know that SEO seem to have a habit of releasing their share price affecting news on Tuesday?
If anyone is going, can they ask why the US web site is taking so long to get organised? Given that most of their future depends on the US, they should really get it organised asap.

what institutional interest is there apart from family?

Thanks, oilywag, although I don't plan to go but happy to rely on feedback from Sharesure. Interesting that day after bank holiday: analysts will be even higher with their sun surfeit!
zscrooge: interesting that only holdings announcement this year has been Age of Reason Foundation which is family. Two placings were probably concentrated on institutions but not particularly large so wouldn't result in any holding over the 3% level. KBC Peel Hunt will have handlred the placings and they would be likely to palce with institutions and significant private investors, I would think.

Biotec and Starpol is my interest from EGM, what are the intended focussed product lines and who is interested in these products, I suspect large US retailers?
Greenseal is happening and will deliver good profits in the coming years however Starpol could IMO have even bigger potential due to the bio-degradability compared with ever increasing plastic costs and packaging waste regulations.
Recylability via Greenseal is a good step, bio-degradability could be even better.
If it is commercially viable (and I would hope that SEO have done their homework and it is) then Starpol and Greenseal combined could save the large retailers not only money up front in terms of lower costs, but lower fuel bills, lower product waste and a key one, lower packaging waste taxes.
The new Environmental legislation will be a key driver for changes in the way our food is packed, companies already have people with responsibility to record the amount of packaging waste, plastic/paper/wood/metal and it is an area of particular focus to reduce or replace with recyclable/returnable/biodegradable products.
Investors in SEO from sp <10p should not worry about fluctuations in sp, it should not have gone to 30p as early as May based upon "early" speculation of a Walmart deal and then we would not have had the bashers/shorters taking advantage but I can understand twitchiness of folk who got in late as the market has corrected the sp based upon current information and that is the key point here, it now has credible figures and future profit streams, in 2004 it was hope, 2005 its reality and in 2006 decent profits should start to happen for SEO and its investors.
Patience folks, SEO have created huge potential (even IC said as much) it now needs SEO management to deliver this to the market, lets hope they are just as capable of doing this.

In Moneyweek there is an interesting article about the 5 great investors of the 20th century - Peter Lynch of Fidelity renown, Eddie Lampert next generation to legendary Warren Buffett, daddy of them all Benjamin Graham (RIP) and Sir John Templeton (who ascribed his vast fortune to "consistently selling too early"!) still going strong at 92! I intend to leave these 3 pages to each of my children (with, maybe, 10,000 each in cash) as the most valuable legacy they could receive. Then I will feel comfortable about spending everything else I have on myself whilst I am still alive to enjoy it!
Peter Lynch's holy grail was the "ten-bagger" a share that makes 10 X its value within about 5 years - annual return ~160%.
SEO is undoubtedly made of the stuff of ten-baggers. Can you imagine an SP of 1.45p ( I bought in first at 8.125p, topping up several times since for an average price of 14.47p) by 2010 - I certainly can (if not well before then) and I certainly intend to be there to prove it.
