I bought all at 0.5p so not caught on spike. Research who are the main shareholders and the fact that Mr Khan headed up TGL and is their largest shareholder.He is also main man at CQ and heads up Stanhill who specialise buying up underperforming companies and introducing wannabee unlisted companies/start ups via RTOs. What CQ are doing is cutting edge(check their site and see who is working for them).Maybe I should have said the next Microsoft but I think you get my point regarding potential. Also sneak a peek at an earlier posting here when I spoke to the guy who is company sec of both companies. If I were you I would stay clear of TGL as I can't guarantee it will be the next multibagger
Comments like that sound so silly, how many times do you think peeps have said that about AIM companies next BP etc. this is a shell like any other lots on AIM and all are looking for RTO's, Tell me where you found the fact that CQ want to be listed? or we are in discussions with them? maybe Microsoft may RTO into TGL? Bampster if you got caught on the last spike come up with some better one liners, the herd will follow... boom... next google...
could be next google if it is CQ judging by what they are doing.Cutting edge with leading Cambridge experts on board
I know as I got my 1m at .50p and could have sold and bought back more than double
No idea but I think Jumbone knows a few uni students, at this price the chart alone is saying buy it was 1.50 a couple of weeks ago
Thank you So all good news. I did some research and bought in today so fingers crossed
With cat nearly out of the bag the herd will follow soon and buy what could be a huge multibagger
1.8 million share trade at 0.5p prob a sell. is that likely to be Inversiones Y Asesorias El Cardonal SA?
Reverse Takeover where a company looking to get a market listing quickly/cheaply reverse themselves into an existing listed'shell' such as TGL.Maybe a wild coincidence but boss of TGL is also main man at unlisted Cambridge Quantum computing(google it and weep!!!)He is also boss Of Stanhill who specialise in finding and using shell companies!!

Hi Sorry for my ignorance here but what is a RTO. And I know this is the key question but when should we receive news and what are people expecting.
with Stanhill and Cambrige Quantum,all buys today and RTO could be very close
Hope springs eternal & I am a holder altho did sell some @ 0.95 recently. Looking to buy back in as we are at an all time low Hedgehog is clearly got a substantial holding & is being hounded by the stig so all in all the buying signals haven't been stronger Personally I am locked into WRN so am stuck at pres otherwise I would be adding As ever DYOR but this is a great shell with some mining assets to boot.
2.5m yesterday for .45.Patience will pay.Ask the Hedgehog about main man at Stanhill and connection with CQ.
sorry up 15% according to iii.Yes 1p soon!1
10% rise in a matter of minutes.I can see 1p very soon
This spiked to over 1.2p a short while ago as RTO news gets nearer.Read Hedgehog's posts!!! Everything is pointing to a multibagger very soon
The current market correction is paradoxically good for TGL. Because the deflating tech sector, and pulled IPOs, is a double-edged sword: bad for sellers, but good for buyers: which is clearly good for Touchstone. The weaker tech sector should give TGL a stronger hand in any RTO negotiations. In these, TGL would effectively be the buyer, probably paying at least in part by the issue of new shares to the tech company concerned. Sector weakness should mean that it has to give out less equity than otherwise. Indeed, with some tech IPOs having been pulled, TGL may be able to take the pick of the bunch. It's significant that technology companies have been approaching TGL, rather than vice-versa, and that there was significant such interest within just a week of TGL's 22nd. April announcement. That shows the profile, contacts, and finances of the team behind this. Personally, I'm reasonably happy with the share price at about half a penny, but I do feel sorry for those who bought in on the recent spike. I hope that they won't compound their bad luck by selling out and missing out on future gains. How long would you wait for a ten-bagger? Market corrections often throw up stellar buy opportunities in quality situations, and I believe that there is currently one here. I note that volume is picking up again now.
I've just noticed this on Stanhill's website (Stanhill.com): "Sweet Virtues Wins Virgin StartUp Foodpreneur Fest 2014" Which takes you to the following: "Virgin StartUp Foodpreneur Fest 2014 – meet the winners The Virgin StartUp Foodpreneur Fest 2014 set out to find the hottest food startups operating in the UK right now and we were completely blown away. We know entrepreneurship is booming in the UK but this competition proves that food startups are providing the fuel for this explosion of creativity. We were inundated with top quality entries from street food stalls, restuarants and innovative products that are all looking to disrupt and improve the way we eat. After hundreds of applications, thousands of tweets and days of judging we managed to settle on eight finalists who were invited to pitch their businesses to Sir Richard Branson and his panel of judges including, Melissa and Jasmine Hemsley, founders of Hemsley+Hemsley, Paul Lindley, founder of Ella’s Kitchen and Mina Holland, editor of the Guardian Cook magazine ... The Winners revealed ... Best healthy food business – Sweet Virtues Healthy chocolate. It sounds too good to be true, right? Carey Davis-Munro is changing the game with her Truffles that come loaded with five super fruits in each one, including chia seeds, maca, lacuma and ginseng – plus high-quality dark chocolate packed with antioxidants. ... " Congratulations to Ilyas Khan for backing another winner. For some time now, Stanhill's website has said this: "Current early stage ventures backed by Stanhill include Sweet Virtues and Cambridge Quantum Computing" Sweet Virtues has proven to be a winner in an exciting area (healthy chocolate!), despite a troll's previous superior attitude towards it, and I'm sure that CQCL will be too. And I'm equally as confident as to where CQCL is heading.
Hi Trev. As a trader you may have sold too early, but you can still now buy back in for less than the price you sold for. Market corrections often throw up stellar buy opportunities in quality situations, and I believe that there is currently one here. Stanhill are the ideal people to have running a shell, because as a merchant bank specialising in corporate deal-making involving smaller companies, they have the necessary contacts and muscle, and people will come to them with potential deals. And I and others believe that there is a particular agenda here to make back the significant money Ilyas Khan and Bob Buchan in particular have invested here. (Ilyas Khan may have stepped down as a director in April, shortly before coming a director of CQCL, but he is still head of Stanhill.) The general rule is that the bigger the deal, the longer it takes, and I'm certainly expecting something with an enterprise value of at least £50M. here. Add the fact that it should be a "high growth technology" RTO, and on any reasonable assumptions then TGL should multibag from its current 0.525p. Whereas the downside from here looks minimal, with the company well-funded to complete the RTO, and excellent support at about the half penny level. TGL recently said that they were excited to have the support and leverage of their shareholders. Also that they were reviewing a number of significant targets. 30/09/2014 17:45 UKREG Touchstone Gold Limited Interim results "...The new board is delighted to be involved in what we believe to be a very exciting time for the Company as we look to capture some of the significant opportunities that exist in our initial area of focus. Our initial focus has been on the technology sector and we are currently reviewing a number of significant possible investment opportunities. We are extremely excited to have the support and leverage of our shareholders, and we look forward to updating the market on our progress in due course...." They've been doing this since at least April, so news should now be very close. Their initial preference may have been dropped, but I believe that was some while ago.
How you doing,hedge,good result recently,though I did sell to early.
Rumours have been circulating since the spring that TGL is working on a huge deal. Easy to say, but the 400%+ gain in the share price (intra-day), on massive volume (over a hundred million shares traded in one recent fortnight), do tend to back it up. I would not like to be out of TGL when it is suspended pending completion of its RTO: a large high-growth technology company injected here would likely see a resumption of trading at a very nice premium to the current share price (0.525p). Depending upon the size, quality, and terms of the deal, a few pence a share could be possible relatively soon after trading recommences. Today was a bad day for shells - quite a few seem to have fallen badly. A reflection of the state of the markets - nothing to do with TGL. But sentiment can turn rapidly.
Because quantum computers and conventional computers can complement each other, packaging together one organisation of each for a RTO could make perfect sense. Please see this article extract from Seeking Alpha: "Will D-Wave Render Intel Obsolete? Mar. 27, 2013 3:44 PM ET ... My sense is quantum computers have a great deal to add to the world of technology. However, as you've read quantum computers are in their infancy. What they have the capacity to do is to optimize businesses. ... Dr. Williams: " ...So quantum computers and conventional computers are not necessarily in competition, as is often portrayed in the media. Rather they complement one another to enable new capabilities neither would achieve alone." " And the deal could perhaps involve a company that the Cambridge quantum computing researchers have already been working with. Which could help explain why TGL was so rapidly (i.e. within eight days) approached by a number of high growth technology companies after its April fundraising. Suffice to say I believe that we are looking at something massive here.
