The fact is that Parsons has supporters, lots of them actually, he is high profile if not controversial.
Commentary suggests that to make money with Parsons companies one needs to be in early, he has delivered outstanding gains early doors - I have not followed the fellow but have read many postings about him, I would suggest those losing money lost it because they entered the investment at the wrong time or failed to sell with a decent profit, maybe being too greedy.
I do expect news-flow to come ahead of the meeting in early March, they need to inform investors of their precise plans. As for the placing price I think the shares were probably heading for lower levels anyway because of Riverfort selling.
Can the share price move back to 20p-30p or more, all depends on news-flow, the potential for upside is still there, the appeal, litigation, takeover, sale of the asset, corporate moves etc etc.
All is not lost, one thing in the city is that they look after No1, those in at 5p will want a decent profit, Parsons may want to prove his detractors wrong by delivering here, we will see.
One thing is we can be assured of media and news-flow from now on.
