Wow, the temptation to sell here is very strong. The SP is now 12.75-13.0p, that's just over 10% after costs in a day. Yikes!

Lol, complete agree with what CHAN says. I've picked some real dogs and lost heavily too. Funny thing is they aren't the shares I tend to rave about... A lot of it is perception, I warned people off ULT many months ago when the price was higher and the PASA deal was a long way off. The share price drifted and then some. I bought in light on the way down and then heavier more recently near the lows around 1.3p. Now they are up and just possibly going to go much higher the sun is shining forth from my rear orifice :0) Never worked in the markets, but I do run a company and have been trading on and off for 20+ years. I have the advantage over chan of live streaming data and sitting in front of my screens all day long. Not sure how much that helps though. RAB looks a worthy investment, £50m profit drops the current P/E to 10. Not had the chance to go through the accounts in detail yet but Altium maintained their "buy" rating. 110p-120p would be a fairer valuation on my initial assessment.

Lol, me too :) After my reply to SteadyEddie last Friday I kept and eye on them. Left it until after digesting the results this morning, but bought in at 11.45p. Bid already sitting at 12.25p so I'm looking at 6% up after costs. That would be a fine day trade indeed, but I think I'll wait for tomorrows press to see if there is a further short term gain to be made. If ULT do the business and push up I might even consider selling those and leaving the money here...

Hmm, well you're probably right as the shares continue to attract buying and the bid is now up again to 11.75p. I think tomorrows press might affect it futher, my comment was more concerning in a few days time when the furore has died down and we are back to a few trades a day.

But that's exactly what I just said dasv. It's not a share to suddendly leap 50% in a day, but a simmerer(!). Undervalued so should make a slow and steady progress, as it has done since the collapse at the beginning of October. The TFL share price is all over the place, currently well below it's recent high. LNG is a plodder, likely to slowly rise, double or more in a year is quite possible. Funnily enough, they just ticked up again, now 11.5-12p. 2.1m buys, 147k sells.

Tighter spread today, and a lot of interest first thing. Current cap is a lowly £8.22m even after todays rise in share price, which by any interpretation I can fathom is seriously under valued. The problems though are two fold. It is a very illiquid share, just a few trades on a typical day, the early buying from this morning has settled into a trickle of orders, although buys of 1.6m against sells of 97K speak for themselves. But look at volume on the 20th, 2 trades, 26K shares, much more typical for this stock. The lack of volume with hold back progress I think. Secondly, the figures just out showed good signs towards regaining profitability in 2007, but are now factored in to the share price. After today they'll be little to attract the buyers, and probably no update for a couple of months (unless they aquire new licences). So unless a buyer steps in (which is always possible in this sector) I doubt they'll do much short term. Buy a few thousand, tuck them away in a drawer and pull out in a year to find your investment doubled or better.

We will have to, since our interpretations are completely different. "...which should, as far as possible, be accompanied by the publication of the requisite admission document. If for any reason this is not possible, the nominated adviser should seek the advice of the Exchange at the earliest opportunity." I agree that they have to relist on publication of the admission document, I don't agree that this document will necessarily be forthcoming when the agreement is in place, as the above statement gives them a chance to delay the said document. However, good luck to anyone holding these and I hope you don't have to wait too long for your chance to take profits. My mind is elsewhere at present, specifically on TAN and ULT...

Great news that they are back up to the highs of yesterday, but take care on BFC. Ultimately the need for up to £25m of new cash is going to need funding and it's unlikely the banks will just hand it over. Predictions of a enquity for cash swap are rife and if announced it would likely happen at a much lower price than the prevailing SP. Where they go from here depends as much on whether the huge fall is still consider to be overdone as the chancellors incentives, in a few days the budget will be forgotten. Re Barclays, good position to be in to take advantage if more equity comes on offer. Can't see 50p as being realistic for a long while yet, but once the funding is sorted that might give a clearer picture.

It looks like the raid was at Christopher Moores' house :) Torex Retail PLC 21 March 2007 Torex Retail plc ("Torex" or the "Company") Directorate change The Board of Torex Retail plc announces that Mr. Christopher Moore, former Chairman, has today resigned from the Board with immediate effect.

I really, really, really think everyone should stick a few quid into TAN for a long term investment. Not a ramp, it makes no difference to me as I'm here for 2-3 years and at present I have no account trade in TAN (bugger!). SOLA seems to be a share to watch, decent support in the high 400s, if you can get in at this level and sell in the low 500s there's profit to be had. BFC this morning would have been a fine choice, coming back off a little now though. I still have funds in FEP, waiting for that elusive joint venture news which will send them up 20-50%, and in ULT on the expectation of an NHS deal due to be announced in the next week or two. ULT is the most speculative, could go either way but almost a certainty to move when the news comes out.

10K cycle and 40 lengths of the pool at lunch time today was my way of keeping cool. Actually, chilly would be a better word, despite the fantastic sun shine on the way. One piece of advice I could offer is to cut your losses when you can, but do try to let the profits ride. It's too easy to sell shares when they rise a little and keep the fallers in the hope of recovering. Unfortunately that's the wrong way to do things, but it's human nature. And if it's too stressful, go for safer shares with lots of trade and smaller spreads, rather than these AIM shares we all make and lose money on so rapidly.

So did I miss much then? I see BFC is the top of the risers. To think you could have bought at 9.5p on Monday and sell at 15.5p today, doh! My £5K punt (if I'd made it) would be worth £8157 today, before costs. However, can't complain, IEC riding high and TAN still giving it large too. All still well in the house of Davius and the Red Nose donation starting to grow...

Down from 500p+ in the Autumn to 72.5p now, a disaster indeed. I nearly bought at 82p this morning, thinking there'd be a bounce on onverselling. Glad I didn't hit that buy button though as another 11% down since then. Brokers suggesting this co is all but dead, that seems to be an exageration to me. The problem is of course that in this new, fit, antifat world, cakes are no longer what we are all into. Personally, I luv 'em, but I tend to bake my own rather than buying over sugared off the shelf varieties. So where to now for Interlink? Well the problem is that if you take out intangibles they are all but insolvent, fixed assets, stocks etc pretty much equal debtors, meaning net debts of over £30m (that being tied up in plant and real estate). However, they had a turnover £130m in 2006, pretty good for a company now valued at a lowly £8.5m. If they can cost cut to bring themselves back to profit then their survival should be secured. I can't help but wonder if one of the larger food companies might want to snap them up though...

SOLA has seen some heavy buying for the last couple of days but with little movement on the share price. Back in at 480p yesterday and they have just started a small move this morning. Would be nice to see 530p+ again in the next few days...

My guess, and it is only that, would be a bit of speculation on these in respect of the budget this afternoon. The chancellor is expected to hit the 4X4 gas guzzlers hard, he could compensate by reducing the duty on bio fuels.

Rule 14: Reverse take-overs ... Following the announcement of a reverse takeover that has been agreed or is in contemplation, the relevant AIM Securities will be suspended by the Exchange until the AIM company has published an admission document in respect of the proposed enlarged entity unless the target is a listed company or another AIM company. It should be noted that the Exchange expects the negotiations leading to a reverse takeover to be kept confidential, as allowed by the guidance to rule 11, until the point at which the AIM company can notify that a binding agreement that effects a reverse takeover has been entered into, which should, as far as possible, be accompanied by the publication of the requisite admission document. If for any reason this is not possible, the nominated adviser should seek the advice of the Exchange at the earliest opportunity.

I'm getting my info from 'Aim Rules for Companies 2007', clearly you are not. And if you want to be so frigging pedantic, it should be 'with whom I have spoken' and not 'with whom I have spoken to', ok?

Lol, well given that the share price is 0.21p then any 0.01p movement up or down is a 5% change, don't read too much into that. The spread is 0.02p so that's 10%. There were delayed trades today of 9m shares, the SP ticked up 0.01p after the 5m so that was probably a buy. This remains a highly speculative investment. Too risky for my money though, one loss on this is enough for me.

Technically correct that they need to relist on publication of the admission document. However rule 14 also states that the AIM company can notify of a binding agreement which should 'as far as possible' be accompanied by the publication of the requisite admission document. So sorry, but it does not follow that the agreement, admission document and return from suspension fall at anything like the same time, they would need to contact the exchange if they failed to produce the admission document. Also, as this would be deemed a reverse takeover then the new entity must issue a 10 day announcement and pay a new listing fee, although this can be done in advance if the deal is definitely going ahead (meaning they could relist the same day if they had everything in place). Of course, they've already extended the option once, there's nothing that I can see under the rules to stop them extending again. The only limit is that they must return from suspension within 6 months or they get delisted.
