glad i dumped about 60% this morning at what i thought was a shitty price.
clearly should have sold more or even all!

apart from a brief (great) flurry of excitement with the cannacord upgrade yesterday, it has been totally bleak to arctic, even with goldman also putting out an upgrade today

I've done the opposite.....picked up a few more....agree about the market...another sell in may ridiculous drop.....french elections and greek trouble plus oil pullback have not helped....

Not unexpected, the shorting hedgies and HFT's are simply going around and creating panic selling.

Makes them lots of money............... fear begets fear - GKP was always one that was going to get hit, like FOGL yesterday.

I can't believe Cynic that you've dumped 60%....not like you at all......some patience needed perhaps...?...

I'm in bigtime in FOGL...but also some quite decent positions in GKP,CHAR,FPM,MXP and RRL......none looking good at the moment but will sit through this....

RF - i use CFDs and very easy to lose one's shirt that way; am much happier to have cut losses, much as it pained me here ..... i think it has very good prospects, region notwithstanding, so as and when the markets turn up again, i shall have sufficient warchest to reinvest

Mainly in shares myself......I have a bad position in spreads though and any further drops will force me into bad losses.....can sit through the dip with the shares.....and I am no good with cfd's.....ftse now into the 6400 hundreds now.....dear oh dear....

6400 - you wish!!

lol......me too

it seems that the management is looking into taking legal action too ...... i wonder if this will result in a significant bear squeeze here this morning

.

interestingly, the order book is still weak with offer/bid 2:1

The RNS kind of suggests imo they are desperate to sell that 20%, someone please buy this 20% and if not then........well, might look into a placing then, but not just yet.

As time goes by if they do not sell that 20% then the rumours of a placing might get very strong then ?

ah yes .... this reads like "if some of you don't like my promoting of bor etc, then i'll rubbish your stock" ..... totally unfair i'm sure

cynic, any RNS is out of date the moment its released. Thats the nature of the system, it provides only a snapshot in time at the very moment its released, and straight afterwards its out of date.

Which is why all US news releases have to carry the forward looking statements warning, basically saying the above, any statement could be out of the date as soon as this release is released.

.

so you are now saying that much of the stuff you post is a load of rubbish .... don't be such an arsehole even if the prior statement is correct
