There you go. Now down on the day. There sure are funny things going on !!

could be the vampire squid at it again.

I wouldn't take these as cast in stone, but some short stats.

POG

Have just received my free shares, though not sure if that is good or bad. I paid nothing for them, but there are now another 9,778,332 shares in issue so I assume the market will correct for the dilution. I also assume HMRC's eyes will light up at the thought of the tax gain when we sell our stock!

Hmmm - I don't appear to have mine as yet!

On edit - yes I do - they have been lumped in with the original , rather than as a separate entry!!

Not quite sure of the purpose of this issue. Presumably to ease the pain for us shareholders by adding more badly performing shares to our existing pile of poo!

don't know whether thats good or not, my kaz is still well down :(

Mind you, with c197m shares in issue, another 9.7m or so isn't going to make a huge difference to the sp.

purpose of share issue was to conserve cash but maintain pay out.

I shouldn't think that there are many mining stocks that haven't suffered badly over the last couple of years. Mind you , I shouldn't think there are many worse than this one !

What makes it worse are the continual buy recommendations as they continue to fall.

Blackrock < 5%

Does that mean they sold all their holding, 16 mln shares?
