but that was a valid one!

I'm not sure that Lebed did have to give it all back. As I understood it, he is said to have made $800k, of which he reached an out-of-court settlement to pay back $300k and he kept the other $500k.

Also, what crime did he commit exactly? He was investigated but never charged and nobody, including the SEC themselves, seems to be very sure of what offence he is supposed to have actually committed. What is the difference in what he did and what analysts and brokers do every day?

unless he faked an rns then he was just spinning yarns. there must be more to it to justift the fine

It just goes to prove, IMHO, that BB's DO influence people's buy and sell decisions, and are a more powerful medium than some would have you believe!

I have noticed in the past, that those that post that "you shouldn't make investment decions based on BB posts", do in fact seem to spend most of their waking moments posting away trying to influence people's investment decisions!

And I am NOT referring to Hilary here, I am referring more to posters from a 'moneyam comptetitor'

why can't sey do a white nile- they would be welcome.

helllooooooo....

whos after ramco??????????

lizard,

Not us, I hope!

wow, i think this is the least active this thread has ever been!

zzzzzzzzz-did you say something? The herd has moved on for the time being-all we want is a bit of good news!

Latest RNS:

PSC-B, Block 4,Tiof-6 and Chinguetti Development wells

Tiof-6 Appraisal well The 'West Navigator' drillship successfully completed production testing of the Tiof-6 appraisal well. As previously reported, the well produced oil during the main flow period of the test at a stable rate of approximately 9,150 barrels per day, constrained by a 72/64 inch choke.

At midnight on 21 February 2005, the 'West Navigator' was suspending the well as a potential future oil production well prior to resuming operations on Chinguetti Development wells.

Chinguetti Development wells#

The 'Stena Tay' drill rig continued operations on Chinguetti Development wells. Woodside does not plan to issue announcements regarding operations on Chinguetti development wells, but will do so if necessary to comply with its continuous disclosure obligations under the ASX Listing Rules.

I dunno - you'd think there would be a law from Stock Exchange preventing drilling reports from being so exciting and informative wouldn't you.

I'm with Moneyplus - wake me up when they strike oil!

Hi all.

Short stop here as the kids are off school, and this is the only time I seem to get lately.

I hope you have all noticed that Sterling are now issuing an RNS concerning the progress in Mauritania.

Those who are more keen will have noted that they also appear on the Sterling Web site in the news section.

One week ago we were talking about the lack of the infomation linking Sterling to Mauritania.

Well, now you have it and I think we will continue to have that relationship promoted in your interests.

I would point out that since Sterling updated their web site, there have been bigger buy volumes every trading day as far as I can see, and today, Tuesday, you debated a total of 7 million buys.

The Management do listen to the small investor and have acted according to points raised.

Fact.

Take it or leave it!

About time. If they want our money the very least they can do it to keep us up todate with whats going on. Got to say I've reduced by 2/3rds.
