http://www.hl.co.uk/news/2017/4/4/the-oil-market-is-finally-starting-to-make-sense With some merger activity around Aberdeen, John Wood Grp etc someone might be tempted to put in an offer for Plexus imo. Failing that the increase in rig activity and drilling a comforting development.

https://markets.ft.com/data/equities/tearsheet/financials?s=SIA:LSE Income and revenue weak, pays a dividend (might get chopped) but no debt and share price below tangible book value. What have I missed? Tempted to buy yet posts below suggest it might go as low as 90p. Would have hoped SOCO a long term buy and hold. Is it that its assets are all deepwater and pricey to recover with oil at $50 a barrel?

I hold quite a few shares and they are currently down on what I paid for them but remain a fan of the company because the technology is sound, orders coming in and their finances/debt OK imo. As regards developments, now a good time to buy if you can be patient and live with sp volatility.

Just over 52,000 shares purchased by CEO and two directors. Vote of confidence? Talks about talks with 888?

Directors purchasing shares this week, just over 52,000 by Bowcock, Terrell and Gardner. Talks in the offing or a vote of confidence in the new CEO?

Surprised to read that OXB considered a sell in the FT weekend. Seems rather odd given the big tranche of shares purchased by its own staff at 6p and the reasonable chance of a Novartis success story.

First, I doubt of those "in the know" post here. Second, the shares are very illiquid, a few thousand traded per day hence the wide spread and volatility. News coming from Aberdeen re orders seems very positive so keep calm. DYOR and if you have set a stop loss don't hesitate to sell.

Glad that others take an interest in 888. For those who think you have missed the boat you have not. Solid earnings, the chance of more US activity is they legalise online gaming and lastly the family shareholders believe 888 is worth 300p a share. A future marriage with William Hill likely.

Modest uptick since I started buying and hoping that the promised cost savings come through this year.

Yes!

I have followed POS for a long time. Buying and selling along the way but yesterday morning bought back in with 5000 shares because I like the company and noticed that Amec had risen on a merger bid. I am concerned that the oil price might not recover which makes some deepwater wells less viable but if the industry is consolidating then a support company may well take a look at Plexus.

https://www.ft.com/content/772ab41c-055e-11e7-ace0-1ce02ef0def9 Good news? Will he be more open minded about a tie up with 888?

Nope not yet, but William Hill still a target. Seriously, am I the only one who reads this page?

Brief mention of WH suggesting a major shareholder wants them to merge so maybe another approach from another betting based company? The price has recovered a tad in the past week and the dividend not far off.

If I was fishing I might wonder if the small move in sp was a nibble and an indication of something sucking on the bait. Nice and quiet here reminds me of the free bit of the Motley Fool before they..... oh dear I do hope not.

Disappointing, thanks for the post.
