To be honest, no. I continue to think there is an argument to say a H&S pattern is evident and that we are now on the right shoulder. You could also argue that a Double Top is evident due to the price action over the last few days. If both my assumptions are correct a dive on Monday will complete both.
Problem with that thoery is my scenario regarding the convertible bond issue just hasn't panned out, I fully expected near 6 to be achieved by today and in fact I did open a long position this morning at 555, which I subsequently closed flat at 555 this afternoon. I'm certainly not brave enough to have a psoition over the weekend, short or long; I'm assuming of course that the figs will be out on Monday.
So verall, I haven't got much right so far with this stock, except to say I thought it would rise if 500p was breached. But you didn't need to be a rocket scientist to make that assumption!
Will monitor very closely on Monday

Possibly it is 50/50 really, in order to break the head and shoulder i think the sp will need to break the 590p. Having said that though the sp has broken the downward trend about a week ago when it bottom out. IMHO I think it will go up. (I hope !)
;-)
With regard to convertible issues, I am not sure what you expected?

Quite simple really, I expected the SP to be 'encouraged' north to allow the bonds to be cashed in for shares at 5.88.

Very interesting news out today from one of those PUSHING this one in the past.
They've got rid of stock before the results..........
Growth Company Investor
SovGEM - BUY
Companies: SOV
24/04/2007
Profiled by Growth Company Investor at 14.25p, SovGEM has appreciated in share price terms yet remains substantially undervalued given its net asset value (NAV) growth record under loquacious chief executive Hugh de Lusignan.
The emerging market finance house invests in early-stage businesses, mainly in China or PRC-related markets, and issued strong finals for the year to December. The highlight was 51.6% NAV growth to 27.9p, substantially north of the current share price, which looks illogically discounted.
Profits increased from 270,000 to 1m, driven by an increase in realised gains on investment disposals from 450,000 to 1.59m. Realised gains reflected a number of transactions, among them the timely sale of the entire stake in fertilizer maker and first investee Bodisen Biotech, part disposal of its stake in AIM-star Renesola, and the sale of part of its holding in Harbin Electric, a Chinese linear motor maker now quoted on NASDAQ. Encouragingly, the numbers also revealed unrealised gains of 1.59m within the portfolio, up from 1.05m in 2005.
SovGEMs investment focus remains on profitable, early-stage listed or pre-IPO companies that are usually Chinese domestic demand-led, with the investment timing typically tied to a fundraising event, an IPO or graduation to a more senior market.
During 2006, the number of investments burgeoned from four to 15, while three new investments have been added since year-end, and two follow-on investments have been completed. NAV growth continues apace, with directors best estimate of today's NAV akin to 30.67p, representing 143% NAV growth since the group's flotation.
The share price discount to assets might reflect investor concerns about the risks of investing in China as well as early stage businesses generally. However, given managements track record of NAV accretion and de Lusignans palpable enthusiasm for an array of investments within the portfolio, we expect that discount to narrow with news flow.

so SOLA's results are out, but as i have trouble reading and understanding the Sunday Sport, don't expect me to analyise them ..... howvere, i do note that the result would seem no better than forecast back in February, so my guess there will be a lot of disappointed punters, especially on the back of the convertoible bond issue which was NOT (I think) forecast in February

Me too Cynic, although I note on top of the Convertible Loan issue they are looking for addional funding via a bank loan........hmm. We'll soon find out what the experts think when the market opens.

Also not encouraged by the "Funding" statement - clearly discussions not finalised and funding of capacity expansion/associated working capital looks like a big issue.

snap .... but shall watch with interest rather than go short (i think!) ... chart below shows 25+dma converging at about 520 which will or at least should give quite solid support .... of course, if that is broken with any impetus, then a short may be the order of the day
red = 25 dma
green = 50 dma

Err, seem to have a few cash flow problems, burnt through the $120m and now off to the bank for another loan. Any slowdown in revenues due to manufacturing problems (expirenced already) or reduction in sales and they could be in trouble. But to be honest I don't really give a stuff either way.
