The Fool on the Hill on Twitter claimed to have met a Daily Mail journalist visiting the area.

If that's true, and knowing the "conservative" style of the Daily Mail, it's likely to give a massive boost to this share on Monday.

"Price action" can mean almost anything.

Such a vague tweet points towards a baseless ramp (FYI some ramps can be well-founded sometimes).

It's moot whether or not an increase in volume and SP in this share will suggest a leak (I'm inclined to take Seadog's view that it's not, but it's ultimately guesswork).

Plus anyone can say anything on Twitter, LSE.co.uk is a superbly well managed and monitored site in comparison.

Generally for me Tweets that make a very specific claim of fact might be worth looking at, or those providing charts (although again many charts on Twitter are BS: charting is low-level art, let alone a science).

I recommend people watch this documentary:

Ed Balls' documentary "Travels in Trumpland" - very well made and fascinating. It was an eye-opener for me.

Trump knows how to keep both his grassroots and superwealthy voters on his side - until they find themselves out of a job and much poorer and clearly connect that to him, they will probably carry on supporting him while he destroys the foundations and (figurative) infrastructure of the USA.

Let's see if the herd rushes in before close...

Share options and bonus clawbacks were tools created to address that.

But even 3 to 5 years is quite "long term" by comparison to the requirement to delivery growth every quarter or half-year!

Let's not forget as well that everyone was under pressure to deliver more returns on a quarterly basis - otherwise, stakeholders would put their money somewhere else, or push to replace / fire CEOs and other executives for other people who would implicitly (never openly) agree to take those risks.

That attitude filtered all the way down to basic individuals, pensioners etc. wanting more return for their savings to some extent.

A lot of what Bob Diamond said made sense to me.

The risk-taking and "returns now" culture had been in the making since the 1970s at least - "The Gods That Failed" by Larry Elliott and Dan Atkinson (the 2008 edition, not the 1998 one), albeit not perfect, gives a good description of how regulations set up in the aftermath of the 1929 crash had been gradually eroded from the 1970s (or before?) onward.

...and there's the ice cream freezer for you this evening!

Just ignore Oil2playfor.

T/O dealings in oil and gas are one of the most secretively managed things, there's no way a figure would be leaked.

Longlad, gerry - 100% agreed re: AIM and small caps - don't hang about, rises are much much more often than not quashed.

Where I am more open to make an exception is when there is a suspected takeover, at an actual price to be announced (vs general takeover rumours without an official figure). But even in such circumstances, one needs to have a finger hovering over the sell button at all times...

Fingers crossed for your immunotherapy.

We hit the bottom of the pennant drawn by Zak Mir. If you agree with his interpretation, it should be rising again.

The expected declaration of commerciality from Xodus might even make the SP break out...but WTFDIK?!

If people agree with Zak Mir's chart and interpretation thereof, we should resume our ascent about now as the SP has been hovering the bottom of the pennant.

I would view the upcoming formal declaration of commerciality from Xodus as the trigger to make us break out of that pennant.

But WTFDIK!?...

...and yet I keep going back to it.

Until I can finally get to have my head examined, I'll clock off.

Have a good afternoon folks!

ruffling feathers again hey dude? :-)

It's not just the number of trades, it's also (if not most importantly) their value.

GBP 12,000 worth were sold in two minutes in three trades.

If you are going to accuse others please check your data.

Unfortunately, 1.5m shares (in three trades) sold off on the back of it, let's see if stabilizes...

And the sell off is now taking place...

Bradis - please forget about the code 1. It's complete and utter BS to suck desperate people in.

Anyone can buy or sell a single share.

As if the MMs were trying to provoke more buys...?

The price is shooting up on very few trades, are the MMs trying to provoke buys?
