Many thanks, Casino, I'll take a look.

I'm wondering if regular posters and Hardide enthusiasts have any suggestions for other small companies with similar prospects that I could look at, and why. Thanks Lionel

Woden: your view as an engineer/metallurgist is very nice to hear. By the way, do you only post on Wednesdays? cordially LG

Casino, Thank you. Yes, I see now that Amati have been buying, as mentioned in the yesterday RNS. I must pay more attention! LG

A chap takes a couple days out, and comes back to find the sp motoring, and everyone talking about Amati, who is Amati? And why does the sp stay steady even when 4m are off loaded? Any one?

Today RNS: http://www.investegate.co.uk/hardide-plc/rns/conversion-of-loan-note/201403110700099615B/

... this site shows 3.8million buys and 4.3million sells today. Is there an easy way of confirming these totals, seeing that some posters think that sometimes buys are shown as sells and v.v.? Anyway the sp is holding up nicely, as we would expect with the excellent news recently posted, and comfortably above 2p again. Once the demand picks up, I'm sure the sp will move north also. Off for a small celebration, I think...

Good spot RRJ. Link is: http://www.*****************/newspapers-headlines-mortgage-approvals-rose-to-their-highest-level-in-more-than-six-years-in-january/ Lots of blue today indeed, happy days.

... whoever just bought a million!

Details are in today's RNS: http://www.investegate.co.uk/hardide-plc/rns/major-supply-agreement-with-general-electric/201403030700242920B/ DYOR

...on the tails of the AGM...

If good news is about to come from one of the test programs, and if someone knowing this decided to buy [not that this would ever happen, of course], and then the price goes up... then presumably the company would have to rush to say that they know of no reason, etc, etc. Could this explain the facts, Team83, Rogerramjetlse? ok, back to the AGM...

Here is today's RNS on the AGM statement: http://www.investegate.co.uk/hardide-plc/rns/agm-statement/201402100900026706Z/

Here's the RNS: http://www.londonstockexchange.com/exchange/news/market-news/market-news-detail.html?announcementId=11857210

Seeing Casino's mention of Airbus: back in July 2008, the company "entered into a three year coatings approval test programme with Airbus" http://www.hardide.com/wp-content/uploads/Hardide-Farnborough08.pdf Have we heard anything at all on the progress of this test programme? Assuming the three years slipped a bit, perhaps we really are expecting some news here soon?

A bit of red on the trades page today, with a (morning?) purchase of 3,000,000 just appeared, and a total of just under 11 million traded (pretty much at the historical top end). Although today's RNS states that the company "notes the recent rise in its share price and confirms that it knows of no reason for such an increase", my suspicion is that someone is buying.

I liked the colour of the share trades page yesterday, and today's continues the happy trend. I was getting a little tired of that sub-1p territory. Do we imagine that some particularly good news will soon be revealed? My furrow is being ploughed alongside nikylauda's, it just may not be as visible!

after the steady buying on Friday, looks like we might see a bit of upside in the next day or two...

... but an unusually large number of buys - 4.6 million - and so far without moving the share price...

... as of 5 August, see, e.g. http://www.theguardian.com/money/2013/aug/06/isa-investors-aim-alternative-investment-market. I suspect that some of the recent sells are disposals before buying back into an ISA.
