DWN now have net assets instead of net liabilities after ditching the albatross that was their News Division.

I should follow my own advice more often but I'm baffled as to why it's risen on almost no volume.

Managed to buy another 10000 @ 7.5p although the trade's not showing. Was unable to buy 12000 online when the NMS is supposedly 20000 - does that indicate the shares are in short supply? If so, onwards and upwards.

Your prediction was spot-on - it did go up but then fell again! What made you think it would go up?

Back in March CAMEC owned 35% of AGTA but an RNS dated 7 May stated that they were no longer a "significant shareholder" which indicates that they still hold some shares. AGTA's website states that 62.44% of the company's share capital is not in public hands which might explain why the SP rockets when more than the usual number of investors try to buy.

Can't help noticing that since RAB started dumping shares in other companies (noticeably AFE) it hasn't done their own SP much good! Any chartists like to comment on where the SPs heading? I'm tempted to invest for the very juicy yield.

Disappointed no one's answered my question. I've topped up and the SP's risen since and I fully expect DWN to suddenly appear in the list of Top Risers when everyone else realises what a bargain it is.

AGTA is making unusually good progres lately. I read on iii that it's been recommended as a Red Hot Penny Share which is slightly alarming... It has management links with CFM which is supposedly in T/O talks - could AGTA be under similar scrutiny? An article in the FT recently said it had "huge" potential.

Now that Dawson News is no more can anyone suggest a fair valuation for the company. Its current Market Cap is £4.08m yet in 2008 its 3 profitable divisions (Media Direct, Books & Marketing Services) made profits of £5m. That strikes me as a bit of an anomaly although I understand DWN has a pension deficit but is there something else I'm missing?

Up another 6.67% on tiny volume. I remember OHM rocketing a few months ago and I was too greedy to press the sell button. It won't happen again!

I agree with your analysis. I was thinking of putting more funds into EML but now I won't! However, I read an article over the weekend about the low prices that obscure metals are currently fetching. Which would indicate that now is a good time to buy into EML in anticipation of future price rises. Tricky...

Not much has happened here recently I must admit but the sky's the limit if a few more contracts materialise. I'm happy to hold in the hope of a smart correction sooner or later. Upwards, that is!

"White Star Energy Plc, the AIM listed investment company, announces that since the Company has been unable to complete a reverse takeover prior to 31 July 2009, being 12 months after the Company became an investing company pursuant to the AIM Rules, trading in the Company's shares on AIM has been suspended with immediate effect. A further announcement will be made in due course." Does this mean the £3m is returned to the shareholders? Is it too soon to order the Ferrari?

Maybe not. My bigger mistake was not to buy back in after it dropped a bit. This has happened to several shares I've identified as Good Investments. But it's never wrong to take a profit etc. When it plunges 10% on profit-taking I'll be back in.

I hope not! But it's interesting that a lot of activity occurred before a favourable mention in the FT. The SP dutifully rose 30.77% on Monday and it's fallen since. How do all the Monday investors feel? I wish I'd sold on Monday!

I'm banking on Greene King making a move sooner or later. Does anyone have any thoughts?

I think so! Having fallen since I bought them SAA have risen recently. My personal experience of the Recession is that things are improving. I have much more work compared with the previous 3 weeks (gross earnings £23!) I felt like having fallen off a cliff I was falling off another cliff but things are definitely looking up again. I'm just one voice among many millions but hopefully things are improving. And SAA will prosper!

Have faith - if they get more contracts it will have a significant impact on the SP. Just one favourable RNS will make you feel pleased you didn't invest in a Building Society

Please explain "averaging down". Is it any different to "throwing good money after bad"? I must admit to having done it with Brixton (came up trumps) but also Raymarine (the jury's still out!) I have a problem with people "topping up" - it just smacks of emotion although, apparently, Warren Buffett advocates doing it with the right companies but I bet he never invested any money in AIM!

... his opportunity and sold @ 27p but it didn't send the SP down. I think that's a positive sign. Whatever, I'm invested until the thing is liquidated and, in the meantime, I'm hopefully earning a helluva lot more than from the Building Society.
