Rockhopper was established in 2004 with a strategy to invest in and undertake an offshore oil exploration programme in the North Falkland Basin. It was floated on AIM in August 2005. Rockhopper was the first company to make a commercial oil discovery in the Falklands. Today Rockhopper is the largest acreage holder in the North Falkland Basin, with interests in the Greater Mediterranean region.

Note the venue change to accommodate the larger than expected number attending.
Hangon,
Agree that insider dealing is difficult to fully define.
If you go out to 'Do' insider dealing you should get what you deserve, but if you are told some info in a sort of general chat way, that should not have happened it must be very tempting to act on it. For example....If you had a relative who works for a company in a position of authority, that you held shares in and they let it slip that the company was in difficulties and was about to go under, would you calmly just sit on your holding till it became an official announcement, or sell asap.
I know what I would do.

Mnamreh,
Totally agree. What I am mainly saying is that I would not go out intentionally to gain info, but I put it to you, if you were in a position where you were inadvertently given inside info to a situation in a company that you had say an investment of 10,000 and that info indicated strongly that if you sat tight you would likely loose the lot, would you act or not.
I am just trying to be honest, by saying I would probably (OK almost certainly) act on the info I had.
I see a huge difference in coming by insider info be default to by intention.

well i'm honest enough to say "of course i'ld act" ..... and when is inside info inside info? - e.g. what if you overhear something in a restaurant or a train or similar? ..... that is far removed from actively seeking confidential info

Glad I held my nerve & didn't sell at the bottom of the dip. Presumably this level (480-490) shows fair value atm?

Well the meeting is underway .....Waiting for news..... nothing on Twitter like Unite union meetings!!!
sp dropping away and some mediocre mutterings on Sharecast
"There will no doubt be a lot of back slapping at Rockhopper Exploration's annual meeting later today as shareholders hear how the group's stock has put on a remarkable 786.9 per cent in the last 6 months. But Rockhopper is still a small cap and will attract a disproportionate number of naysayers as a result. Hold, says the Independent."
The last bit will please Pros!

They always are....waste of time going to them (not that I've ever been to any, just guessing).....the news is never then, they only talk about what has been....it's the rns's to come that should be interesting....
