A year ago today Rea traded at 93 the cpo $629. We know there is no correlation between the two, as since then the sp has fallen 38% and Cpo is up 94%. Perhaps other London palm stocks tell a similar story?

Yea, 14 bargains got skewed by one seller of 100,000 on 128,028 traded on the session. Pretty sure sellers will keep the pressure on the sp as there are few buyers around atm and the jobbies won't want to push the boat out happy to suck up some cheap stock. Not great for investors having to rely on news to move the sp but for the time being its wait and watch. I'm happy to do so.
