I subscribe to OilmanJim and he's mostly right. But it's amazing how many shares he won't touch with a bargepole are suddenly # 1 Top Risers! No names - DYOR! Which, funnily enough, bodes extremely well for PXOG! Boom! Boom!

Thank you for your kind words. Obviously, having sold all our shares in PXOG we shouldn't be here! At least, according to the paid rampers who have a mountain to climb. A decent company wouldn't need them. PXOG is such a frustrating company: read the recent RNS without knowing the SP history and most punters would be keen to invest. But jam tomorrow eventually goes off... Dogs can still generate huge profits if you get your timing right! I won't name names! Good luck!

You make a very good point! I've already suggested ORM invest in other companies rather than going it alone with all the future expense that would entail! They could afford to buy ORR with more than enough left over for a fish supper! Bring it on!

...there's been no comment since I last managed to crawl out of bed! I've noticed PVR has attracted some interest this week but that's neither here nor there. Where do elephants buy their groceries? Answer next week if nobody can be bothered to post!
Was sickened to read this week how much better off I'd be as a pensioner in Ireland. Shame it's a bit late now to emigrate!
And shame on the UK Government for paying the lowest pension in Europe.

I took a position this week and now I own more shares than 3 of the Directors! Not difficult. But there are very few shares in issue and 2 Directors own 25%. Mr. Market seems to be indicating business as usual a lot sooner than the UK Government envisages. Hopefully QUIZ will survive and suddenly re-rate.

I see HUGE upside from here when production costs are less than $18 per barrel. Even without the inevitable rising oil price EDR is looking very cheap! And it's local oil for local people - it might even fetch a premium! Apparently Welsh Gold does.

Your mention of Tesco reminds me of them building a new supermarket in Chatteris and never opening it! Admittedly, you must be desperate if you thought opening a branch in Chatteris would ever show a profit. Not sure what's happened to it since as it's several years since I drove past. As for ZIOC, still the lion's share of my PF and the only share I'm seriously expecting to deliver. Of course, once the jackpot arrives I'll be waving goodbye to the Stock Market! Been looking into buying a 17 acre Nature Reserve for £100k which seems cheap.

Please give it a rest! I finally sold out after the last RNS because I'm sick of lifestyle companies but they will continue to flourish and make money for punters who get their timing right. Also sick of posters warning against investing in obvious culprits! AIM is a casino - accept the fact! I noticed our exchanges last weekend were removed - must be due to me mentioning other possible investments! Sorry. Without that rule these boards would grind to halt - no bad thing judging by some of the comments I read. Good luck!

...every shareholder will receive a free pair of sunglasses. Mr. Market's not impressed with the RNS so no change there!

...on Friday more than 5-1. I'm fed up with remaining confident, I just wish LOGP would hit the jackpot! Six cents per 2C barrel does seem ridiculously cheap! But WTFDIK? LOGP has to be the ultimate share for Roulette players. Very tempted to increase my holding except I'm worried about how bad a deal has to be done to get Barryroe into production.

How could I possibly tell a geologist what he's missing? ORR "a bit too unfocused"? You must have read all their RNSs and understood them far more than I could. I remain confident.

Yes, very illiquid! Were you attempting to sell? Foolishly I bought my shares on a T + 20 which has been converted into a Long Term Hold. Rest assured the tiny number of shares available will work in our favour when the herd arrive. Assuming there's not a huge placing...

Unfortunately, the Market can remain bonkers for far longer than investors can stay solvent. In which case, bet against the Market just as the tables are turned. Having said that, why isn't Gold much higher and Markets far lower? We are facing the worst economic conditions since 1709 but it hasn't sunk in. Maybe things are different these days? Can I take this opportunity to forecast Gold will be $2500 by Xmas 2021? $4000 by Xmas 2022?

beardozer is unwell but it's more down to drinking too much than COVID-19. ZIOC is not the only undervalued miner - I highly recommend ORR but DYOR.

One day this week PVR was up 20% while LOGP managed a feeble 3%. Who cares? As for a wide spread, it only really matters if it persists - I'm sure it would narrow dramatically as soon as the herd arrive. In fact, a wide spread can be very encouraging in that it shows very low interest in buying the share. Possibly the perfect time to pounce? Possibly the time to capitulate and leave a sinking ship accompanied by several rats? I remain confident and hope to be pleasantly surprised by how much profit I will trouser. But if it all goes wrong I can take the hit - onwards & upwards! People like me flew Spitfires in WW2 - these days we drive a white van.

Much good the two 2.7m buys did us! ORR still fell the following day. Surely the 12% plunge which I took advantage of was to enable the smart money to enter at a reasonable price? Why ORR isn't valued 10x higher is a mystery. Very high inflation is already upon us! The anti-moth widgets I hang in my wardrobe cost me 29% more this year. And I have heard of a Fish'n'Chip shop in Norfolk suddenly charging £12.85 for what cost £10 only a month ago (and that was considered extortionate!). Buy Gold and avoid swapping your wallet for a wheelbarrow.

nims: a breath of fresh air - how are your other investments performing?
Tiptree: as you say: right place, right time so what could possibly go wrong?

Despite my prediction of a 100% rise ZIOC has had a disappointing week - as have I! After 7 weeks of putting my feet up I have been ordered to return to work on Monday! According to some Tories I was in danger of becoming addicted to a 20% drop in my income. I just wish ZIOC would get a move on!

I've had no trouble buying this morning. Interestingly, after I paid 0.3639p only 7 minutes later someone paid 0.39p - almost 11% more!

According to Saturday's FT "Three-quarters of restaurant and bar operators in the UK have warned
that they do not expect their businesses to survive with social
distancing measures in place".
It belatedly hit me that pubs may actually become extinct due to
commercial unviability. That would be terrible.
But the answer is obvious: costs must be slashed to enable businesses to
thrive post-coronavirus.
Either that or we all don facemasks (or something more like an
air-conditioned helmet) and mingle like we used to.
As for drinking while wearing a mask I think it's time we emulated the
elephant and incorporated a trunk into our protective headgear.
Slashing costs is simple: reduce rents by 90%.
It's time wealth was transferred from property landlords to pub
landlords.
Another interesting problem is the future viability of tall buildings.
How long will it take the workforce to reach their desks if only one
person at a time can use the lift?
Office blocks may be mothballed on health & safety grounds.
