Firstly, bigger players always know more than we do - this is a given, and it hasnt been a secret for oohh... 20 years now.
Secondly - "I really am at a loss to work out why"
Really?
perhaps you should start with some research on LYC, current global economics, business in Asia, investing in shares, the human condition, and get back to us when youve cottoned-on. Honestly.
I can only assume you did enough research in the above things before throwing money at LYC, so, I assume you made a game plan and realised that the SP would sink while TOL took its time to be issued. Stick to your gameplan. If its not working out, its probably because you really didnt do enough research on the above things, so time to either be patient, or re-adjust your investments.
"i cant get my head around.." "what the hell is going on.."
Are you sure youre in the right game?
