Still looks messy, this is among the flurry of RNS today.

HSM prepared to protect contractual rights.

Wish I'd been watching when it spiked to c110p today, I'd have taken that.

That's it doomed then...

I'm not sure why they'd want a name similar to that oft stolen, self-combusting car.

At least it's some sort of news today.

In the news article it states 'Pineapple Power shares were flat at 2.74 pence each in London on Thursday afternoon'.

What else would they be when they've been suspended for ages?

All seems a bit dodgy with the revaluation and a bid straight after.

Add that new short to the mix and it looks even murkier.

Nothing seem to move it. I've baled out at a loss after nearly 5 years, lost patience.

Money could be put to better use elsewhere.

I'll be glad to get out too. Will probably hold a few days to see if any likelihood of anything else happening but little point in holding till the bid eventually completes as there's no dividend now.

For anyone who doesn't know how it works, this is the best explanation I've seen.

Is that a new short opened by GLG yesterday or a notification of an existing one?

I also have a small holding in Tern, which is also way down on my entry price.

Tern seems to be sparking up with some good news. Up 100% in a couple of weeks (from ATL).

I'd love to see GROW do the same.

Back to the crazy displayed spread again. Strong buying again this morning, £20 looms.

I wonder how much of this is down to the after-effects of the Woodford scandal, leading to a general distrust of funds dealing in unquoted companies.

King Canute didn't wish the tide would go out, he deliberately let the tide wash over him to show his followers he had no control over it. It's a common misrepresentation.

Similar here, first tranche 2014, 2nd 2020

Think about 26p see me breaking even.

I have the original purchase price in 1991 as 240p in my records.

Can't help with the merger, I don't even understand my own notes on it!

Careful what you wish for. Media attention could result in calls for a windfall tax.

Dragons' Den?

£2m & £1m sells this morning, wonder who's exiting.
