I think it was inevitable that IB and HW had to step aside given the lack of progress and destruction of the mkt. cap. over the last 6 months. The emergency Placing so soon after the market was tapped for money before is reason enough for the City's lack of confidence. It might want the FD's head as well. I am interested in seeing who will be appointed to the Board since that will give a good pointer as to whether the institution tyhink SEO is a long term investment or they are in it for a quick turn round and then sell.

Just heard the bit re the Queens speech re climate change/environment and it appears the government are trying as expected to out do the Tories on the issue.
The issue was one of the main subjects mentioned.
OK, personally I don't think any politician cares about anything apart from his/her next pay cheque and expenses, but if the environmental issue means votes the government will want to be seen as the greener party. At least attempt to cut said emissions will be made.
In my opinion the best way to be seen to do something is cutting waste. Penalties for more wasteful companies, and higher costs to dispose of said waste, cant do SEO's case any harm.
Its a shame we cant bottle all the hot air put out by politicians. If we did we could heat the whole planet.
There so full of wind I know where I would stick a wind farm.

I had same problem and forwarded it to a pal with more up to date equipment who printed it out for me. Email your postal address and I'll send copies.

Hi folk! Been on the sidelines for a while but its getting interesting. Most encouraging thing is MoneyPlus coming on board: an angel not a fool!

Agree SD that HW and IB still on board. My take is that Schroders are likely to be in the driving street as they have taken a holding themselves and brought in two Pension Fund clients; there will have been a price to pay and that will have been effective control. I thing I am right in saying that they like to separate the Board with strategic and governance responsibility from operation management. IB and HW will have a lot of valuable knowledge re technical cpability and the markets.

I think it would be surprising if there was an early announcement re a sale: a major client would want evidence of stability; also if a sale was so near why not buy the business to help the share issue price? Re the discussion on private investors holding a balance, I suspect that is unlikely because most of the take up will have been institutional. My take of Schroders is that they will want to get the company in a stable state which means a small number of significant clients plus sound plans for, for instance, Greenseal. That must take some time. They will then want to package it for sale, perhaps even a management buyout given that management is signifcantly strengthened by then. They will not be looking for a quick profit so that they will not be keen to see the volatility from speculation.

If my take is right, SEO should be a sound investment with a one year view. Short-term, there must be a lot of hot money wanting to take profits as in the last 24 hours. Personally, having been twice bitten I am 4 times shy: generally too quick on the buy button, so I'll bide my time.

Eric--thank you kind Sir!! nice to see you back and hear your words of wisdom.

driver - 15 Nov 2006 15:16 - 22450 of 27111

Blimmy its getting like the old days eric, mp whos next andysmith or even pm1 this must be a share worth holding.

Oilywag - 15 Nov 2006 15:24 - 22451 of 27111

driver, you forgot to mention Aldwickk, tfc and others of the same ilk as well.

Aaah, those were the days!

Mind if the sp keeps sliding, I'm sure that they will emerge from their hibernation.

The oily one

driver - 15 Nov 2006 15:46 - 22452 of 27111

I never trusted tfc I could never understand him and he always talked in telephone numbers.

greekman - 15 Nov 2006 16:11 - 22453 of 27111

Eric,
Welcome back. Thought you had taken any profits and bought yourself a private island somewhere and gone native.
Good post, by the way.
Greek.

stockdog - 15 Nov 2006 16:27 - 22454 of 27111

Eric - sounds about right. Institutions are not going to take a quick buck from here when they can get a slow few bucks. Although Fidelity does have a bit of an opportunistic trader mentality on occasions.

As ever, we are waiting on critical news about board, staff, orders, jv's and future earnings, all things that must be well analysed and discussed internally by now. So it's a pig in a poke for the PI just now. Have to say 1.50p is very tempting (could get my average down from 9.45p to 5p for a very modest sum at that price) , but better to take a smaller position at a higher price when there is a good deal more certainty in the air.

Still - at least it's creating genuine interest and thought on the BB for once.

jimward9 - 15 Nov 2006 16:41 - 22455 of 27111

23mill in buys after the bell.

potatohead - 15 Nov 2006 17:00 - 22456 of 27111

they were sells from during the day.. tomorrow will open lower, stop losses will get triggered and the sp will drop further.. 1.2p is my predicition, but loads of room to go lower

Fred1new - 15 Nov 2006 18:04 - 22457 of 27111

With the balance of Buys to sells so heavily on the size of buys for quite a while, where are all the shares to buy coming from?


Perhaps SEO is printing them on biodegradable paper.

Just a thought.

stockdog - 15 Nov 2006 18:37 - 22458 of 27111

Why are peeps selling? Do they imagine after putting all that money up the institutions have just made a bad couple of decisions?

Ask yourselves, after IB and HW leave the main board, is SEO a better or worse investment.

According to 98% of the posts above, it should be better.

Uncertainty may be a downer, but if you've been in as long as most holders at much higher prices, what is it in the latest news that finally decides you to sell?

So it must be short-termers who got in at 1p+ recently. There can't be that many of them and they will soon be washed through. Then which way will the SP go?

PI's getting what they deserve again because human psychology leads them to buy high and sell low!

What am I missing here?

Fred1new - 15 Nov 2006 19:11 - 22459 of 27111

Some of those who took up the placements have made over 100%, Very tempting to move on.
The growth rate will be slightly slower for the rest of us mortals.

andysmith - 15 Nov 2006 19:59 - 22460 of 27111

Driver, you missed my post saying back in on Friday? However I set a 15% trailing stop on Monday when it almost reached 2p just in case like previous borsons, i.e. last week speculation was McD deal but when it didn't happen people have locked in profits driving sp lower. I can't blame them really, how many times can you double your dosh in a week. So my trailing stop means I'm out again with profit but have set a limit buy order as I think this will go lower again but is still worth a gamble as a recovery play with potential. I think that the company is being re-organised and being put in order to be in a position to manage any significant deal that can this time deliver revenue and profit and that may mean a few months before deals are announced. I still say forget Greenseal and focus on Starpol.
