Sad times.
just popping back to express my empathy to all who are really feeling it here. Yes, there is an element of injustice, an element of deceitfulness from the bod and some puppet string pulling from JPM, all resulting in what we regarded ourselves as loyal lth being shafted. Let's hope some karma works it's magic on those who didn't do what was right to protect our interests.
But, when all said and done don't let this defeat you, life goes on and there are much more important things in life than money, you know what those things are so look to them for comfort in this time of sorrow.
Head up and look to the things we take for granted in life.
Always genuine, mr.dt aka

Just popping back to wish a few old friends well with the outcome of this sad sad fiasco. I haven't checked in here for almost a month but caught an article suggesting you guys are going to vote no to an AAL take over... That's a brave move but I wish you all the best. Was suprised to see Bucky still here....that's pretty weird I suppose but he must just have no friends or something?
Anyway, I left here with what was left in my account and was going to take it out and not invest anymore as this had unexpectedly gone so badly wrong but I had a thought. I Thought maybe if I had traded the swings in Sirius I could have made more money and that the typical slogan of advice on trading platforms of ( you should invest for a period of 3-5 years ) was actually the worst f#@king thing to do....it cost me 7 grand.
Anyway, I made another grand back in about 3 days trading GGP, NVCT and EUA. I then hit the buy button and went all in on EUA at 4:29pm the night before the evening before the shares got suspended.
I'm currently praying that this turns out to be the best decision I've ever made.
I'm no longer long, not ever and I couldn't give a huge S@#t about the company, or any company for that matter.....I just hope we all who got shafted here get our money back.
Good luck guys. Good luck you genuine kind people.
I have been meaning to pop back here to say something as I am still following to see how this pans out.
My thoughts are exactly aligned with lovelyboys 20.40pm. I'm leaving my cash in my h&l account in case miraculously sxx stays a public company. I sold out for the same reason as lovely boy. It just occurred to me that Chris said in that press report about taking the company private, then backtracked and put out that statement on the Sirius Facebook page. And again, that word "it is not our "intention" to take the company private."
"Stage 2 is "intended" to be all debt."
It seems whenever that word is used we should expect the opposite........maybe in the most recent rns if it had stated Sirius intends to recommend the offer then maybe I would have stuck around. I genuinely wish the best of luck to all of you still in and hoping to benefit fully from any major turnaround but I just can see it.
I have decided not to wait any longer as I have concluded in my head that even if this does get a higher offer,...say 6.5p it may add what? Another £900 to what I can get now? What's the point and what's the point too in waiting and watching this possibly go to the wall? This whole thing is a mess.....far, far, far from what I ever thought it could be. My money is going under my bed, away from any of those money men who will keep on stealing the dreams away from the small man. It was my dream to make just enough to pay my house off earlier, so I didn't have to keep battering my body into old age working so physically for a living. I don't think that's being too greedy. I've lost £7000, less in value than when I lost my mother and alot less than some of you here. Anyway, I wish everyone well, a good life and health and good luck if you continue to invest. It's been emotional ; )
Rusirius, finally a post I can agree with you on.
Can someone confirm that this is Morgan Stanley buying up shares for Anglo American?
I assume to add weight by way of rights to their offer?
Legally they should declare it?
They have and the did in the last rns.
A number of interested parties.
If no one else has made an offer yet then there is nothing to declare.
Then whys he still hanging around? He's like a bad smell
Ibab, did you sell out today?
I hope you don't mind ibab, but with so many thread titles I thought I'd get creative with mine.
Anyway, I just wanted to let people know my intentions having had a think about all of this, this morning.
I will be waiting 3 weeks, so around the 29th of January before I sell up and move on to not ever waste my time and money investing in companies again. Aal's final offer, if still offered at all will be announced on the 5th of February. I am 90% sure of at least a better offer from I.C.l before then. Good day to you all.
If you have sold out thinking this is worth just 386m......more fool you.
First "possible" offer, still 3 months to go.
Of course there will be a counter bid.....I would at least expect a bidding war to commence with i.c.l, who either don't want the competition or would love to own the competition.
I'm holding
I can't see that this will be the only offer.
Hi fuzznut, it never closed as I'm still on it. Both administrators of the page sold up and two new chaps took over.
Jr, the group on Facebook is much the same as here except their information mainly comes from here thanks to our informative posters. The last piece of information on there was that there was definitely going to be government backing then 3 days later the s.p crashed, and that source was from one of the administrators!.....pretty s#!tty group really.
I'd say you're currently in the right place ; )
Nice one bellers, that's some averaging down!
Ohmni, I have done exactly the same as you with very similar figures, I am holding off averaging down further until I know for sure that some of this company is going to be staying in our hands. I am pretty certain of a deal as I have said Before but we need to know what that deal involves.
Great positive day today, long may it continue!
Treblejohn67, is that Bucky?
Knew he couldn't resist, what with the share price running away from his bashing efforts!
200 customers in 42 countries, not a bad start for this niche product...
ICL..
it's not going to be – we don't believe that this will ever be a huge product, but this is going to be a solid niche product that will go into the specific crops organic fertiliser. So, it's important for the organic space, that is growing nicely. But again, it's not going to be huge. I know that others might think that the potential of these products can be 10 million, 15 million tons. We don't believe that.
Remind me where our offtakes currently sit again?
Strange that he comments straight after me, is he seeing my posts?
I wonder if Bucky has panicked and bought in yet?
