Perhaps you could be right a forced seller - but a massive decline this week - bounced abit

Fall this week - it's like the MM are reducing this down for some sort of placing or RI? That's how it seems to me. It is the strangest share sometimes massive volume and the price hardly moves trades matching but where are the buyers taking advantage of this weak SP all in perhaps?

of falls to the lowest level, has to be some news due making this massive reduction in share price this week for those in the know? Not holding but was tempted around 6.5 - but this has fallen too fast and quick and put me off tbh. Suggest holders contact the company to ease their mind?

It is obvious there is a large seller in the background and has been for some time. Large trades - Institutional IMO. The advertised spread was large but the actual spread was tight and copious amounts can be traded - certainly no shortage of shares on the MM books. Also decent profit for those who bought at the recent lows. Forestry is the news the market wants - may be a while before they can put that news together and in the interim whomever is selling is content to do so at this and lower levels. A poster on Advfn stated news definitely this week earlier in the week he was spot on - would be an advantage for any PI mushroom to know when news was coming, does help with trading lol

For all holders here - true disgrace. Audited accounts should be good enough, don't hold but did years ago - wonder how long this goes back? Auditors must be accountable if there is any justice and will have insurance. Possibly only forlorn hope of salvaging anything for shareholders.

Hold but posted recently - no PI IMHO could have seen that RNS coming, I was truly shocked, especially as Costis sold circa 42 million of his shares and that RNS of course hit the same day. This is a disgrace, worst I have known and all holders have every right to be seriously annoyed. Hope all holders get some justice here. There has to be a serious case of fraud to answer here for those who are responsible in the fullness of time. After the report there may have been some doubt certainly - but for those who held and for any other PI posters - how many can genuinely state they would receive an RNS stating what it did this morning? Point I am stating is don't beat yourself up over it. As for the future here is really does look bleak, however all you can do is wait - can see this suspended for a good length of time.

In the process of buying a house in cash with mine. Traded since 2008. Well up - cashed in and out. Although that wasn't always the case, sure we have all being there a few times along the journey! Had TW at 3 pence - trebled my money at 9 pence and look at the heights that has reached. Hindsight eh. How we would all be multimillionaires if we only had that inside track! Yes I was in Sync and bought Myriad along the way. As for GBO - value will win out in the fullness of time. TW et al will move on. That 40 page report stating 10-15 pence must be massively damning - I just cannot envisage that a reality - not with the impressive figures in the public domain. Don't hold but if I did I would continue to - ditching the idea of the bond I see as a positive. Concentrate on Shareholder value and core business organic growth.

Invested but held in the past, but still follow certain stocks. The bond idea cast uncertainty - markets has we know hate that. However there is still uncertainty in what GBO will propose to do next. If I was a shareholder I would want them to progress with what they have and concentrate on building their shareholder value towards some of the target prices the stock has. Perhaps they may turn to Shareholders to fund this opportunity, placing with Institutional shareholders and maybe a rights issue to all? I would think this may have been explored previous to the bond issue sounding out the Institutional Investors but as ever just my opinion. If I held on balance I would welcome a takeover offer at a significant premium - that would burn the shorters in an instant and they could move on to the next victim. The stock is certainly targeted. A stock I held but fortunately sold out of nearly double where it is now was Myriad Group AG - Gotham targeted that stock.

Like that has changed then - can buy and sell copious amount of stocks without going to NT. RNS thresholds crossed of course will be the indicator, there are large trades and cumulatively they represent quite large amounts changing ownership. Reckon a buy but certainly If I were holding....I would continue and perhaps top up on any dips. Have to state though it is about time time FS really delivered shareholder value, perhaps the two recruits to the board can realise that in time. Don't hold so will refrain from posting - just giving my opinion as a ex-shareholder. GL all

Watch list there seems to be heavy selling keeping the SP down. Thought with the recent news would bring some life into the SP. Presume there will have to be crossing RNS's soon. It does always (held before) seem to be hold and jam tomorrow scenario with OBT. Perhaps FS (remember from Kopane days) is reducing?? Cannot envisage why at this level or other Institutional reducing of shareholding. I would rate this genuinely as a buy but cannot understand all these cancelled trades on a daily basis. You could buy massive amounts recently but only sell relatively small amounts I understand without going to an NT, not the best sign however if this divestment comes to fruition as some are anticipating and obviously hoping on that news it will significantly re-rate. Patience again. It certainly is not behaving like it is ready for lift off but all in takes is that one RNS. GL all

Would not be surprised if this did move up. Panmure Gordon target 30 pence - Numis 9 pence and Citigroup 3.3 pence. The latter two perhaps in anticipation of a D4E and or RI of the suggested '75 Million' in the Telegraph 03/03. If only the PI's knew of when and at what level.......one positive is the large Institutional Investor support.

Standard are still selling coupled with the shorts have increased recently on this. Does look good value however. On watchlist.

and Trinity have took a hammering since the results. With Mecom the fall is quite respectable. I understand the Institutions believe the value of this is around £4 per share from Luc. on iii. When the break up value is higher than the prevailing share price it does make you wonder why they in fact continue - certainly not in the shareholders interests. For the record the results seemed positive to me. But this is Mecom opens higher - moves upwards and then gets hammered down. Fair percentage from peak to trough.

Agree - and likely will not stop falling - maybe until early 40's or JPR has stopped falling. Totally out of favour and with results for both out and a while to go before any positive news to influence the share price. Volume and interest on both stocks are low. Unfortunately for my JPR shares that I will get soon - deep joy.

you called it correctly and although holders with an obvious vested interest do not agree they cannot argue with the fact that you have been proved correct - so respect. Hope JPR does go well but doubt it tbh - hope to be proved wrong. ATB best all

Tend to agree unfortunately, holding a fair few of JPR via SIPS. Tomorrow will be definitve for them and I am not looking forward to it. TNI results I thought were alright tbh. Market wanted a dividend but far more prudent not to and pay off some debt IMO. If JPR gets hammered like TNI - Trinity will likely follow downward - if it suprises - likely move upwards. I fear the former hence holding off buying either with a private holding. Can change quickly but 100% sell on Barchart with TNI on any term is a concern. If I was to pick TNI or JPR it would be the former to buy. Institutional further buying would provide confidence and a more than likely overdue bounce. Watching and hoping JPR suprises to the upside do not want to put any further funds into the stock in all honesty.

this was circa 11 pence at the all time low (Intraday). Many holders must at least be relieved that it is over 24 pence. Many will be down of course and some of the speculators could be sitting on 100% plus paper profit. RPT are not in a strong bargaining position - other offers may indeed come out of the woodwork but make no mistake any bidder will want to pay the absolute minimum. 24 pence may be derisory in historical terms with regards to the previous share price valuations. But it is hugely better than how it was looking for shareholders. As ever the wider market will dictate the direction - one maybe to hold - but to buy at thes levels is a far tougher call.

if that is true it is a disgrace to the shareholders and to the company name. Got out at not far off double current SP although with a fair loss. McKeever it too busy hanging on to his inflated salary - inflated due to the dire SP performance. Know it is a tough market - hope this does turn around for holders of this stock.

buy though. Somebody is confident

Fair comment and sentiment. The cash burn and the ability to raise further shares and consequently further dilution is the concern and what is stopping me from investing at this level - which does seem a good entry point but I think it is likely to fall further and with dilution much further. A real shame for PI's - I took a large loss of around £6k at 26 pence. Obviously glad I took the plunge and bailed. One of the two stocks I have sold at a loss in my trading over 3 years. Even though I am out I still hope it comes good for holders - certainly due a break holding this.
