Completion of acquisition of Shaw Sheet Metal Ltd. Purchase price £ 0.8m, so a bit of a minnow but note CRA still has £8.8m in the bank and Phil Cartmell is preparing for a 'very exciting year ahead in 2015'.

Henderson increase holding - now above 19%

4 companies are presenting at function organised by Hardmann.

No idea Mikey. Trawled the web looking for clues and absolutely nothing. ATB

Alto Invest (French) have increased their holding by just under 2 million shares today this gives them a holding of just under 5%.

Agree Skyfall. CRA made some good strategic decisions in focussing on profitable areas of the business. Nice to see a small revenue generating acquisition on the horizon without the need for a placing. Plenty of cash in the bank and results expected to be ahead of expectations. ATB

Short-term-in.....Thanks for the Motley Fool article. Sums things up nicely. ATB

Well Kertonator, they're all transacted at a nice round 30p and look like limit orders. My guess is that the buyers are chartists, all using the same system, but it is only a guess. Any other thoughts anyone??

Blogger David Harbage picks Bovis as one of his top 5 stocks for 2015. Good stuff

Investec reiterate 'buy' rating today.

More good stuff from ACI. ATB

Nice to see SP back in the 40's. Steady rises since early December. General Meeting on Weds. GLA

Hello KashBack, not quite sure whether you're just having a laugh, but in case not, share prices are driven by sentiment. If you want to apply a NAV basis, then you should maybe consider an investment trust and buy at a discount. Happy New Year to you.

No idea! Still we have a small advancement today. I suspect that £2K transaction was actually a buy unless there are any trades not yet showing. ATB

Henderson increase their stake - now > 18%

Well Shareaction, the SP has been as low as 31p quite recently. You might get an opportunity to buy in cheaper later on and if so, good luck. I had thought about taking advantage of the rise today and doing a bit of dipping in and out because I expect that the sp will drop back to around the placing price but the medium to long term prospects for this company are so promising that I decided to take a longer term view and forget about daily movements.

I don't really care as long as Idea can keep growing with the ultimate objective of delivering shareholder value. The discount of 1.5% as described is hardly the deal of the century. Oversubscribed and 11 new institutional investors. Great stuff.

Black means they don't know whether it's a buy or sell. You can't completely trust the buy/sell categorisation anyway because it's based on whether the trade price is closest to the buy/sell prices at the time of execution. Bonkers in this day and age!

Won't be 'bust' gunton. Did you see that £ 10m order recently? The commercialisation is already there with air purification solutions (big earners) and some Hunt Thermal products. We're waiting for developments with CET and Spirax. ATB

Interesting Red. Thanks
