kept it for posterity...
"Hi Wlaw1
Charlie is not a highly regarded guy in the city. Unfortunately known for pumping and dumping amongst other things. He has all the background and training on paper but the chap will blatantly ignore issues with resource projects and hide from facts that are potentially critical to a projects success or failure. A serious faux pas in the eyes of the city regulators and how one should conduct themselves in the eyes of the market.
He works for SI Capital so is going to pump a stock if they are their broker, even if he knows that there are issues being hidden away or ignored from the general market/retail.
Just a word of warning or caution. These brokers and representatives have a habit of pumping stocks despite potential issues that could scupper it...at the end of the day they get their fees and all that."
I was wondering myself how it been deleted. Rather an abrupt start to a posting career on LSE if I may say so. Anyway, welcome CityMining, FWIW I think Charlie Stephenson is a thoroughly decent chap and he knows his metals, he generally makes a point of staying out of the ramping / deramping circus and lets the investor decide.
Thank you BwanaMakubwa for taking the trouble to ask the questions and for recording the responses, it was an interesting read.
