ah well, my little dosgsbottom, no matter what you number you choose to select at a given date, there is no question but that Nightwish USED to hold 30m shares and have now got rid of 12m of them - as i said ..... why would they do that if they thought the pot of gold was just on the horizon? ..... therefore, the next question is whether or not there is any good reason why PMG should currently be worth 20p let alone the 30p that it reached about a week ago? ..... in my opinion, a categoric no!

Great start to the day.

it is indeed, but shall merely watch with interest as i truly do not think this is any better than a share for fast trading .... at the moment, all that looks to be supporting it is hype and PI greed

I would expect this bounce to run out of steam, as the fundamentals haven't changed at all. Good trading stock atm, but not really a hold imo.

cynic and HARRICAT

the pair of SODS are from the same family TREE, not idea of NOTHING ( both negatives yes) ( no and nothing )

with which bits of post 82 and 83 do you actually disagree and why? .... or is it that you cannot bear others having a different view from you - just like MRSI

Who is a clever boy?
not the old boy --- cynic -

Had the retracement (a very large one), now is time to go to the broker for some 20.75p to 21p to pay

It's just a tradeable bounce, imo (unless another RNS is released). Take it or leave it. Try being less abusive and I will respond to your posts, otherwise I will just ignore you.

re - at the moment, all that looks to be supporting it is hype and PI greed at the moment, all that looks to be supporting it is hype and PI greed


Talking about greed ( you are full of it - cynic - ) now just jealousy, cos you are not holding
maybe you should look at the family tree

Mr. Tom Cross went further than the published RNS to give a detailed figure of Nightwish's holding.

It must mean something,....... like we are working on ABC and if you sell more ( Nightwish ) you will be missing on the potential upside

harry - leave "blue sky" to be abusive to whomever he wishes ..... as i said; he's like MRSI and cannot abide others with a different view .... patently i agree with you, though i probably shan't even try to trade this one ..... meanwhile, it's good to see XEL making us all bundles of dosh!

Early talk somewhere else >>>>>>>>>>> looking for a miracle

What was the miracle?

09:50 Re: Finally in. czubaboy
50% upside within 4 weeks! Amen! I had spare 10k so quite happy to leave it all year if it has to be and after seeing what he has put in i feel quite safe.
we shall see,

Receipt of Deferred Consideration
The Company reports that it has today been paid the full deferred cash consideration of 1,969,449.55 owed to it by Mr D Mills pursuant to the Company's disposal of Quayside Corporate Services Limited to Mr Mills in 2007.

Receipt of this payment satisfies in full the consideration due to Parkmead by Mr Mills.

I'm no oiler far from it but this is looking a fabulous investment .

Thomas Cross - Executive Chairman
"The Board has established a Remuneration Committee whose Chairman is Tom Cross"
"The Board has established an Audit Committee, whose Chairman is Tom Cross."

Total control at the top!!!

Continuing with the rise, though from time to time MMs are trying to shake the market, but so far the bounce is consolidating

Good rise this afternoon and back were it belong at this stage 25p+

A few days ago there was plenty of speculation about the deals ahead ......


Parkmead/Faroe talks? WSJ

EDIT: found rest of article - 'Observers speculated that KNOC might wish to sell its stake in Faroe, possibly to Dana founder Tom Cross's Parkmead Group PLC (PMG.LN), but Stewart said its new shareholder is supportive.'
