Well that bit of news didn't have a lot of effect on the SP so far did It?

Price around last night's closing last time I looked.

ET So much for rumours.

I think you are short. Hope so.

S Price going up again this morning.

Fred1new.

I'm also under that impression.

I'd take that as a buy then.

Going up as I type.

Strange the market didn't think the same and SP seems to be up into current trend!!!!!

This outfit's share movements are beginning to Intrigue me.

1. Yesterday when some of the other miners were up early part of the day, VED was the last to respond.

2. Today just the opposite.

I now want out of these to free up money for other opportunities when they arise but something keeps saying "not quite yet old chap".

I know the feeling Stan.

But now the price has got over the 14 mark, I'm going to stay put.

KD.

Me to...I think, trouble Is I seem to change my mind with this lot every time I give It more thought -:)

Suppose I should just stop thinking-:)

Out at last, sold the lot...needless to say It ticked up a few just after!

Profit's a profit.

Yep true enough K, by the way lots of Interesting rather large buys In the after 4.30 finish I see.

Could be a very rewarding session for all you holders tomorrow.

Good luck all.
