Had planned to average down if the price hit the low 80s but held off and now think the time is right. A price in the 70s will certainly reduce my average nicely. It may drop further but hey ho, you take your chances. Be greedy when others are fearful and all that. Looking back at the banking crisis when Lehman's went bust etc., it seemed like the world was collapsing. Then came the continued bull run.

So, I'll hopefully pocket a few more tomorrow, stash them away and, provided I don't get hit by a bus (Brexit or otherwise) anytime soon, might realise some profit in a couple of years. Good luck all!!

Been in and out of PMO a few times in the past. Recently bought a reasonable chunk at what now seems a relatively high price. However, if this drops to mid-80's I'll average down as I still think it has very good prospects over the next few years. Key is getting the debt down.

Have been buying batches of these over the last few months and bought my last tranche today. Now have a reasonable holding which I plan to hang onto for a couple of years. Oil may well fluctuate but it's on an upward trend (generally speaking) and, more importantly in my view, PMO are at last getting their debt down. Hopefully, with their finances looking increasingly healthy, it'll head north. I'm prepared to give this some time to see how it goes. I appreciate there are a lot of day traders on here but I suppose I'm looking longer term. Am very positive about the outlook for PMO (with new developments in the pipeline too) but time will tell. Am happy to ride out any short-term volatility. GLA!

Apologies if this has been posted before. https://seekingalpha.com/article/4172203-bt-group-plc-bt-q4-2018-results-earnings-call-transcript

Very good read - just hope he call pull it off. Still think a clean broom might be a better option though. Guess if he doesn't pull it off then a clean broom will appear anyway! Always hard to call the bottom of a share price but at some stage you have to take the risk - hence my purchase today. Will see what happens.

Have had BT on my watchlist for some time and decided to jump in today (albeit a small amount). Am hoping they either re-focus the business and get things turned around or else some 'other' telecom entity makes a bid (perhaps early in 2019). Who knows? Anyway, I'll give it a couple of years and see. A lot of negativity about BT at the minute (perhaps rightly so?) but I'll take a punt as I don't believe they're as bad as some are making out. Good luck to all!

dvharrison - still watching FAB. Bit nervous about buying just yet as think it could possibly fall some more. Was a bit fortunate selling when I did but am trying to work out what I would consider a good entry point again. Still like FAB but nervous about AIM as a whole and the prospect of a correction. Doesn't take many trades to move this share!

Have also moved a percentage into cash recently myself. That said, thought I'd take a medium-term punt on CNA today - not sure how that'll work out but thought it was a bit on the low side. If oil prices increase, should see an increase there too. In terms of AIM, don't currently own any but have a few on the radar - such as Breedon. Am still hoping to get into FAB at some stage.

dvharrison, you could be right and I may not get in lower - I'll just keep watching to see what materialises. One thing that I did notice yesterday when selling was the lack of liquidity. Took a few attempts to make the 'normal' online sale and not opt for a "negotiated sale". Only to be expected I suppose. One thing I am quite concerned about is the current "frothiness" of the UK equity markets as a whole. If there is a correction then AIM shares could be hit hard. Have had my fingers burned in a similar scenario before. Anyway, good luck!

Still like this company but did something I don't normally do and sold out at a profit - with a view to buying back lower. Very risky strategy but will just have to see what happens over the next few days. Worst case, I have the profit. Best case, I buy again if it drops to a lower, less-volatile level. Interesting times!

Thought I'd tuck a few of these away as I think they're a promising company. Early days but potentially a growth area. Once FAB's capacity is doubled via the larger lab and, provided they maintain and develop further contracts with established pharmaceutical players, the company should do well. GLA.

Bought a few PNN yesterday, mainly because I wanted something fairly stable with a reasonable yield. I'm sure there'll be a few ups and downs along the way but the decent dividend should ease any pain!

Smart grids and pumped storage are also good with one other possibility being storage arrays/batteries - these are already being used in some locations and can provide c.10MW per battery when utilised. Anyway, should be an interesting time with ARL. Their future looks promising.

Have been watching this for some time and should have jumped in sooner. Instead, I ended up buying some today. I think that this company has excellent prospects as tidal, in my opinion, is the way forward for renewables. Predictability is the key factor (compared to wind) as it allows more accurate scheduling of conventional plant to work around the input from renewables. Provided that there are no grid constraints in terms of getting connected, I see this as a very promising company. Of course there may be teething problems along the way (nearly always are with these kinds of projects) but in the end just under 400MW is a sizeable input.

Managed to pick a few of these up previously when they were near the 200p mark and have bought a few more today. Still think it's a good company but it had got a bit ahead of itself in terms of its share price. It's still early days as the company hasn't even been listed that long. Good luck to all holders.

Having just recently purchased my first UTW shares, one of the interesting aspects of the business that helped in my decision was their purchase of t-mac back in April 2015. IMO, smart metering is set to be a growth area as utility companies increasingly try to get customers to be smarter in their usage of energy, water and gas which, in turn, reduces demand, particularly during peak times when margins can be tight. UTW are a very promising share and, should I get the chance, I plan to buy a few more during any share price dips. GLA.

In case anyone is interested, this is the link to some background info I found on the Dalradian gold deposit in Northern Ireland: http://www.northernireland.gov.uk/news-deti-190814-foster-announces-19

Ok, bit the bullet and bought a few of these. The gold prospect in NI looks exceedingly promising. Fingers-crossed. May be tempted to acquire a few more further down the line.

Also hoping to buy a few in this company in the near future. Has decent prospects but it will no doubt still be a few years until they're turning a profit.

I think this fall is overdone. I was in BG previously and made a nice profit, and have just bought in again. Yes, there are some issues with OPEC and the current glut of oil etc but it won't last forever. £9, in my opinion, is too low. This is a good opportunity to put a few away.
