Question: How do you know the big institutions are loading up as you say?

Answer: Because that's what happens when all the impressionable private investors have given up all hope!

I agree with you, Tdobber.

People are reading too much into the delays and share price movements.

I admire your courage, Barry.

If excellent drill results are announced, you could get badly hurt.

Remember, a successful sidetrack at JOG resulted in a swift rise from 60 p to 400 p.

Know how you feel, Crude.

Having decided I had put more into SOU than I should have, I decided to buy a modest amount at 16.5

I hesitated, good news was announced, and before I knew it I was paying 26.6 and investing twice as much.

I then added at 22.5 ...

... and now I'm wishing I'd had a wife to tell me to wait for the price to go all the way back down, as it always does on AIM.

Wrong on both points.

I didn't say that.

You omitted the words I placed in parenthesis.

And I have never said that I expect TE-10 to fail.

Do you really think though, Trader, that if SOU is taken over, it will be for 19 p per share?

Another irrational reply from SG47.

I didn't say that I thought TE-10 would fail and you have no right to insinuate that I did.

Anyone reading my posts at the time would have noticed that I questioned why so many posters were convinced it would fail.

Remember, it was 11 p when everyone - so it seemed - was convinced TE-10 would fail.

It rose to around 30 p when good news was announced.

It would be perverse if it fell through the floor while we're still waiting for news.

I chose the name nearly five years ago, just before I started investing ia all these AIM stocks.

Must have been prescience on my part.

Great post, Partridge.

At first, I thought you had spent hours trawling through JTF's posts, copying and pasting the choicest parts.

There was just one omission: more and more of us long-suffering shareholders are actually popping off while waiting for the TE-10 results.

I am thinking of adding a codicil to my will, bequeathing the results to my heirs.

You're missing a peculiarity of German spelling, YinYang:

Schröder = Schroeder

I do agree with you, however, that Schröders are probably partly responsible for the fall in price and therefore the news of their selling will not necessarily cause a further fall (unless small investors, who haven't yet sold, panic).

The ones that are feeling hopeful it will succeed are a brave bunch ... There won't be a LE Party at this rate ... If the share price tumbles again I have no hesitation to scoop-up some more shares from those who are selling them. I said it then and I'll carry on saying it.

(JTF)

You are remarkably self-contradictory.

You have no confidence in the management or of the company's success, yet you intend to buy the shares sold by people who throw in the towel.

I just bought some more, although less than my usual amount.

UKOG DID go up, to 11 p before collapsing to 1 p.

And HUR did rise from 9 p to 67 p, before slumping to 24 p.

Share prices do move considerably sometimes, but maybe those movements are a different kind of manipulation.

What we have nowadays with HUR looks like a trading range.

Jesse Livermore said that is normal, but that doesn't mean it's not manipulation of a kind.

I have been a member of the share manipulation conspiracy circle for quite some time.

As to how it is accomplished, various explanations have been offered by posters more knowledgeable than I, but I go by the circumstantial evidence.

'* EPS, not ESP!'

We could certainly make good use of ESP on AIM!

I think if everything goes according to plan and yet the share price hasn't breached 70 p by Christmas, then the shares will be even more absurdly undervalued and, in that case, I wouldn't dream of divesting.

They do say that value will out in the end, or some such grammatically-nonsensical English.

The longer this undervaluation continues, the closer we (if we're still around and still invested) will be to a price explosion.

I agree wholeheartedly with everything LONGWAIT says!

I hope you're wrong, JTF, for your sake as well as all the rest of us.

It's always impossible to say where the bottom is, SB5.

It is always possible to say where the bottom was.

By that time, it could be considerably higher.

What we can say is that the share price is showing signs of forming a bottom.
