Ann: Trading Halt, page-70

A good start would be Ross gone.

Hang on - if only someone had opined to that effect before and tried to get some KPIs together. Or to try to get some questions put to the AGM.

But then I seem to recall a self proclaimed soph running (T14 look at me everyone) running interference and calling people wingers and attacking posters all over the place (and frequently getting ticks as he did it always against the forum rules) even as he'd also acknowledged he'd gotten in for cheap shares last time as, I must presume, a soph. One of the rarified VIP like HNW (high net worth) chaps.

I reckon he'll be back - (there's inheritances and there is people with money that have absolutely no talent except for finding cronies that will help them get more than their share - sophs are not necessarily sophs- the British bloody Raj - have some india old boy - I've kept it nicely separate from the other bits of india - don't mind if I do old chap - wonder what the working people are doing today?) maybe with a new nick or maybe not. Espousing the great value on offer and encouraging any whingers (those with a view that doesn't accord with the direction he'd like to see the share price go in) to move on.

In my experience there is nothing stupider that a so called CYP sophisticated investor. I feel like I've been watching and waiting to see if buzzard S or buzzard PH will make the first move to eat the other one before the other one cuts some deal to eat him - for a while they could kind of eat roadkill together. Even do a bit of mutual preening.

I think I'm going to want to check out the share holder registry before and after this goes through.

Perhaps those who are actually not greatly enamoured with being diluted or encouraged to put in again like they did at 70 and at 60 and now for the new bargain chance at 21.5 (but that's this year - theres a whole new chance to do another raise next year) might want to get together for a shareholders discussion rather than just do option A of paying again or option B of selling at a loss they might want to do option C of acting like adults and shareholders with rights. Maybe?

I am not comfortable with new DFU results becoming available to the market only after sophs and some directors and managers got a chance to buy at a price that is below what it was before a halt was called. Something about the timing of that (oh look we have some new data - and by strange coincidence its now we are also doing a cash raise) doesn't sit right with me.
