aimtrader the info on advfn was that one of the placing holders was selling their holding, that was the week before last, price went to 14.25p.


Mind you looking at what is ging on today mystifies me.

The sells, and that is what they are make the share go up?

Are the mm out to lunch still, or did they have a liquid one?

That and the buys after are near the top end, con the sells be buys, but sold at a discount to clear?

I think they can.

If they are the price will be up again tomorrow I would have thought.

very confusing- serious volume- I think this must be in relation to shares moving around from placing?-

aimtrader...the overhang is just related to the placed stock. thos out for a quick turn may just dump this money in favour of other investments. out of the whole placing there would be a percentage that will be long term holders and a few flippers who are now bored and want out. likewise there may be resistance at above 17 p for a while and then there will be a clear breakout through 20p.
one mans humble opinion.

Nous showing through, Prop. Share ownership (lest we forget), unless you are particularly astute, lucky, bent or a combination of the former, is a medium or long term play. In these small cap oils one day can make you a few quid (cf Cairn) but sound companies can allow you to retire early if you hold your nerve, take a calculated risk and play the game in years not weeks.
(PS trust sprog and significant other are ok)

great thx! i agree with medium/long play...lets just wait and see. of course rumours and stories are great for a few quick bucks but research stories like this take time and hopefully pay HUGE dividends!

I hope you have been awake every night at 2am like I was for all 3 of mine.

Guess what, the eldest is 21 and she still has me up till the small hours worrying about her..................

Hey we ticked up!

Stock overhang under done and over cast I reckon with sunny intervals between showers.......

;>)

well little Max slept through most of last night but my 3 year old was up. typical.

stop clouding the issues SWW, there is clearly blue skies ahead with a heatwave on the horizon and storms now far out to sea!

no storms at sea! (esp. off West Africa!)

So now we have weather foecasts to add to recipes and some talk of SEY! It's freezing up here and has been snowing the last few days. Bring on the blue skies!

where are u?

In Dundee, hence the freezing temperatures!

Enjoy the seasons gav. Better that than bland perennial Spring/Autumn type-thing weather.

Is anything worn under the kilt? I know it's all in fine working order.

Try Cornwall instead, no snow though the winds are up a bit and there are even some daffodils out!

A nice day here in Kent. Blue skies and sunny.

Pity the manufacturing base in the UK is shot otherwise you could have replaced anything u/s which was worn under the kilt.

london is cold and dry. any snow expected down here soon?

last year london came to a standstill in .34mm of snow. 2 weeks later i was in New York and 7 inches fell overnight and everything worked perfectly. Oh Red Ken, sort it out. instead of windbagging about 4x4's, buy a few more gritters and snowplows.

I do enjoy the seasons here, but the colder times seem to stretch from October through to after easter. Still, Im used to it. Nothing like having to scrape the ice from your car in the morning when the temp is -7 or so! Today we have the usual grey skies. Earlier in the week we had sun, rain, sleet and snow in the same day.

Mickey, as to the kilt, nothing is worn under it. I've only worn one a few times and it weighs a ton, the socks are horrible though!

No daffodils out here yet, maybe in a few months!

With the pace ( or lack ) of traffic in London it is probably better for Ken to hire Big Issue sellers on a part-time basis and issue them with a besom and red flag.
