  2. Looking for stoploss on line.
    AOTonline? Challenger.com? Any others? AOT seems reasonable, $33 trade, $49.95/month, free if more than 8 trades/month. If database isn't accessed then $0/month. Seems reasonable, any opinions?

  10. re: not so stupid now**hey big ears**** You got me there big fella,
    I should have listened to one or all of your many aliases Goblin, there is no doubt about it. I'd be buying flat out at 23c today if I had. Ah well, thems the breaks. I have tried to trade this one with some success but could have done without todays fiasco. Still, I've been in and out since 8c so perhaps not such a blow. Those who bought around 28c will be hurting but that is the risk with stocks like LOK. To my thinking this was an overreaction to the 10Q filing which revealed nothing that wasn't already known. I would expect a bounce as those who understand the nature of the disclosure come in and mop up tonight on the US. Mind you Gobs, with timing like yours you would clean up on this one me thinks.
    regards

  16. Very direct, and good post. It's only others that will feel the shame for the directors TSS.

    A leopard does not change its spots, nor a tiger its stripes.

    Their record indicates that they can't feel shame. With these "piggy backs" now approved, they will obtain even more power. Small investors, unless there one of their mates, will be the losers.

  17. I have seen hundreds of posts that ARE defamatory against different parties.

    My conscience is clear; I don't feel any remorse about what I posted. Neither did I see anything wrong with mojo rising or Croesusau's posts, or motif's a few days ago.

    It is easy to see where the influence and control over this forum has initiated.

    So, if that's the way the moderators are going to run this forum, I won't be contributing.



    • *Removed* this post has been removed from public view
  18. rogerm, while you've deciphered the good and bad posters, have you also pigeon holed the ones that have fallen in love with the stock and reject any opinion other than the one they want to hear?
    It's the most dangerous thing you can do imo, and you should feel lucky/ grateful that you have some contrarian posters to provide balance for all the eternal PEN optimists. But what would I know?
    PEN is very tradable, but not out of the woods by a long way imo.
    • *Removed* this post has been removed from public view
  19. So you can see both sides of the story matty.
    I'm in the same boat having traded PEN from time to time.
    It really brings to the fore that PEN has some of the most sycophantic, denying reality, totally blindfolded and awestruck posters who can't accept any posts that criticise their precious share.
    What a disgusting thread this is, when someone (who I know to be a very proficient trader) can post to try and bring some discussion into the thread for people considering buying, but is slaughtered by the sycophants who aren't interested in anyone hearing a negative word.
    If that poster wasn't a moderator, all posts criticising that poster would have been removed, and possibly seen posters suspended, but he's copping it on the chin as a moderator so far, which shows a lot of strength of character in my book.
    Shame on many of you.
    • *Removed* this post has been removed from public view
  20. Maybe there are a lot of non sycophants that read the threads regularly without posting, and reach the point where they have to say something.
    • *Removed* this post has been removed from public view
  21. Agree seuss.
    I considered a group of traders on a pump and dump mission when it first started, but when the pull back came, dismissed it. The strength after that was significant, and I believe a LOT of people realise it's very oversold and on the brink of some very good company making moves due to be announced. Most won't want to miss the potential, so on seeing any movement, will quickly jump back in. That's no pump and dump.
    • *Removed* this post has been removed from public view
  22. I know. Maybe I didn't explain myself very well.
    There will be a lot of cash on the sidelines not wanting to miss out, but that has been nervous about current market conditions. Movement in stock price is enough to bring that money back in. Nothing to do with management, just investor psychology imo.

  23. I believe you'll find that we now have SUPPORT at 10c.
    Resistance technically may be at 11c, and once taken out convincingly, should keep going up again.

  24. Do you have a 2.7 million deposit for a new home?
    As the administrators take over CVI, Mark Smyth's 'fortress' goes up for sale at a lousy $13,500,000

    Now, with a 2.7million deposit, and interest rate of 7.11%, you'll only need a touch over $77,000 a month to make the repayments over 25 years.

    Feeling sick enough yet?
    Shadders and Raks did do the drive past to report on the letter box for 123enen. I remember it well from just after the EGM days.

    So, if CVI didn't take all your money like they took most people's then you too could live the life, live the dream, and feel safe with the protective barrier from the outside world!

    Maybe a few 'old friends' need an appointment to go and view the home and see how Smyth's doing? Is the dementia well advanced yet? Any house guests? Malcolm Johnson, Anton Tarkanyi, excelsior perhaps?

    To make your appointment for Perthites, and just for a sick session for others:

    REL: 1115 HRS Comvita Limited
    
    GENERAL: CVT: Comvita Launches New Structure
    
    Comvita launches new structure; positions for the next phase of growth.
    Global natural health and beauty products company Comvita recently launched a
    new structure and the appointment of key personnel to strengthen the
    company's growth platform and position it for the next phase of development.
    
    The key initiatives include:
    o The creation of the role of Chief Operating Officer to oversee Comvita's
    marketing, sales and its global supply chain;
    o The split of the Asian business unit into one covering Greater China and
    South East Asia and another covering North East Asia;
    o The creation of a new Pacific business unit covering New Zealand,
    Australia, Canada and the US;
    o The creation of a new strategic business unit Comvita Innovation Limited to
    undertake research and development and foster links with universities and
    other research institutions;
    o The appointment of a General Manager Apiary Development to strengthen and
    develop the rapidly growing apiary business.
    
    Comvita CEO Brett Hewlett said: "This new structure will ensure Comvita makes
    the most of the abundant prospects we see around the globe.
    
    "Product sourcing and delivery to market form an integral part of the overall
    Comvita brand offering. It is important therefore that we maintain a close
    link between the supply end and demand end of our business via a single
    senior manager."
    
    "Meanwhile Asia has reached a level of complexity and scale where it is now
    ready for us to split into two regions - North East Asia incorporating Japan
    and Korea and Greater China and South East Asia.
    "We also have further expansion plans for the American markets and have taken
    the opportunity to set up a Pacific Region for sales, covering New Zealand,
    Australia, Canada and the USA."
    
    Finally, in order to give heightened importance to the role that research and
    innovation plays in plotting Comvita's future path, we have created a new
    team that sit slightly outside the day-to-day operations of the core Comvita
    business. This team conducts a range of research programmes, designed to
    deliver tangible, commercial benefits for Comvita."
    
    "The new business units will complement the existing divisions of Finance,
    Human Resources and Brand & Design."
    
    In conjunction with the re-structure Comvita announces the following
    appointments:
    
    Chief Operating Officer (COO): Scott Coulter, B.Tech (Biotech), BBS
    (Accounting)
    Mr Coulter, previously the Chief Marketing Officer, has responsibility for
    implementing Comvita's global strategic marketing, sales and product
    development as well as managing Comvita's global supply chain and
    distribution. He will focus on forging tighter integration between all
    business units, ensuring the supply chain is responsive to global demand,
    while continuing to build Comvita's highly recognised and trusted brand. He
    will lead a global team, including line responsibility for all of Comvita's
    offshore entities. Mr Coulter will continue to be based at Comvita's global
    headquarters in Paengaroa, Bay of Plenty.
    
    Mr Coulter held extensive sales and marketing management roles at Dominion
    Salt and Tetra Pak prior to his joining Comvita as Sales and Marketing
    Manager in 2002. He was personally named as winner of the Export Bay of
    Plenty Achiever Award in 2010.
    
    General Manager North East Asia:  Nevin Amos, B. Hort Sci (Hons), PhD
    (Bioprocess)
    Mr Amos is moving from his current role as Chief Supply Chain Officer to this
    new position, based in Japan. Mr Amos will focus on developing a long term
    sustainable growth platform in North East Asia that supports Comvita's growth
    vision.  Mr Amos was awarded a 2011 Prime Minister's Business Scholarship
    which he is completing in Singapore before this new role commences in April.
    
    Mr. Amos has led Comvita's procurement, manufacturing, quality and
    distribution teams since November 2006.  He has a strong background in
    international food supply and logistics including valuable experience in
    market access, quality, supply, logistics technology and lean manufacturing.
    Prior to joining Comvita he held positions with ZESPRI, the Commonwealth
    Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) (Australia), the Meat
    Industry Research Institute of New Zealand (MIRINZ) and Massey University.
    
    General Manager Greater China & South East Asia: Ron Butt, BEng
    Mr Butt, currently General Manager Asia, will take responsibility for the
    Hong Kong, China and Taiwan markets and also Comvita's expansion into the
    South East Asian market.  Mr Butt will continue to be based in Comvita's
    regional hub Hong Kong, which provides marketing and distribution
    capabilities in-market and enabling this growth into neighbouring regions.
    
    After attending university in New Zealand, Mr Butt had a 10-year career with
    ExxonMobil in the Asia Pacific region, and since 2005, has championed
    Comvita's premium brand positioning in the Hong Kong market. In 2007 Comvita

    Manager for the Asia region.

    Hutton, B.Ec, MBA

    market, based in Brisbane, Mr Hutton will be responsible for sales and
    profitability in New Zealand, Canada and the United States. As well as

    Management roles with Amcor Australasia, Smorgon Steel and Pivot Limited. He
    has extensive experience in manufacturing process improvement, developing new
    markets, sales force effectiveness and change management. His experience
    includes involvement in US market development across a number of industries.
    
    General Manager Apiary Development:  John Burke, BAgSc
    Mr Burke has been appointed to this newly created position in New Zealand,
    with a focus on establishing a strategic and operating framework to
    strengthen and develop the growth of Comvita's expanding apiary business and
    land development opportunities. Partial ownership of their own supply gives
    Comvita greater control of the quality and cost and security of future
    supply. Land development and planting of Comvita's special varieties of
    Manuka, will enable Comvita to grow overall supply for the benefit of the
    entire New Zealand Manuka honey industry.

  27. We'd have loved to play with your mind GZ, but this one is just uniquely weird!

    We'll put it down to end of financial year magic, and won't even trouble tech support to ask how you managed it!

    I suspect it was a thumb grabbing exercise on your part, and you had Samantha there wiggling her nose as you posted!
    Hmmm. That's my best conspiracy theory for now!

  28. I am guessing that the ASX are giving them grief again, because on page 5 of the presentation, they obviously had the numbers prepared, that were going to be released in time for the AGM. (Obviously again is my guess)

    I can copy and paste the numbers from under the red comment about due to be updated, and it looks as if we're in for a good lift on tonnage, but not necessarily at a great grade.
    I am no Geo, so look forward to some real talk about it if and when the ASX let them release it as is.

    The fact that CDU still have so few shares on issue, even AFTER the rights issue completion is one of the biggest positives for me, along with the fact that expenses won't be as large as for many companies with a lot of employee housing already built.

    Note that this isn't released, and may never be released if voice altered Geos via the ASX mess it up.
    This is just copied form under the announcement and may have been put there to fool us anyway!

  29. I find that post rather repugnant and cynical cusox.
    Right now, imo it's a buy.

    What does that have to do with anything else?
    Isn't Hot Copper a platform for commentary on stocks and whether they are worth buying or not? If we didn't comment, there would be no Hot Copper

    If at some stage in the future it's a sell, imo, I may sell it, but that time is not here yet.
    Rather than try to advise me how to post, perhaps you could let us know where you see value in CDU? Do you wait for it to be proven and moving up again?

    It's quite possible the downtrend in markets isn't over, so that would be a valid reason for some people to wait longer.
    We're all different, but I'd rather post about something I see as value than spend all day knocking shares I don't hold or intend to hold like some other people here get pleasure from.

  30. Shadow, that is bull dust, and you know it.
    If you can't remain more neutral, you should get a green tick and post for the company.
    You simply can't give a value on it without ALL the information.
    Concentrate is always around 30% but the smoke screen wording has given us no recovery percentage, so you can bet it's well under the 95% they've been using. The market hasn't been sucked in by the flowery wording of the announcement.

  31. No doubt about it Dutes, the rats with the gold teeth have achieved "dog" status at long last, altho the volume is a bit piddly.

    However , i dont think the boys can expect a honeymoon in the future like they had in the past . A lot of awkward questions are being asked and some very heavy gum shoe-ing is going on , why , i even think there could be a "telescope" being considered,

    Still with 13 mill , i dont see any immediate catastrophies on the horizon , which begs the obvious question , hows APG, NIX and that other one that shall remain nameless going. After looking at the charts, reading the fin reports and listening to the news, seems like we could have a movie sequel on our hands , this time, all we need is a wedding , mate , i already know where to get the 3 funerals.

    Cheers

    Yep, I agree. I know the people as well. They have a whole heap of old TEC ground. Its a great hit. and I think they are continuing the drilling.

    These were the first 3 posts ever on CSE.

    Although Dezneva only posted "...I know the people as well...", I can see how you may have remebered that as "...the boss being a good bloke..."

    Problem is, it was Bendigo he was replying to and not you!

    How do you explain that?

  35. I get your drift joewolf.
    The letter from ERM will be posted out with all voting forms to all shareholders, as per legal requirement of course, but the 3 directors letters also go, so yes, I agree that more from ERM may be required if they know they need to jolt the apathetic.

    Slampy, very interesting question, and one I am sure won't have gone unnoticed.

    Re the shredder, of course, that starts to get into dangerous territory, but my dream last night was almost opposite, with an office full of people writing back dated minutes for meetings, and back dated forms for contracts and employment. It was a hectic dream, and I hope there's no reality in it at all.

  37. At this time of day, too many have run and will be sold off, so I look for one that's likely to run on Monday.

    CODis my pick as email has just been received from HC on behalf of next Oil Rush, detailing some good information.

    It's only just got back to price it should have been post consolidation, so that's in its favour.
    Very little to sell, I like that, as it will move quickly.

    Many won't have received the email yet as they're at work, etc.
