Fingers crossed people have heard the recent update and decided this may be the start of better times. I guess if they're not going to update us on 100+ carat finds anymore then we may not hear anything else until the end of the year/early next year. I'll be hoping for something good then. Can't wait much longer !!! GLA

It's possible, I think it may take 18 months or so a slow run down ceteris parabis. At the moment things look quite frothy for SYM but lack of substantial traction will make a difference eventually. Of course if the d2p sales do start to increase materially then it may not continue it's downward trend as far as that. It's always a long time to see anything happen for these AIM companies that don't report their figures more than once or twice a year.

Just remember other companies are also making oxo biodegradle and amti-microbial plastics etc and also As I understand it master batches with the same ingredients as would create those plastics. Sym have a trademark that's all not an exclusive on the technology. That's always been my understanding.

Fair - but this company has been around for a few decades - I have been an investor, in the past, for 5 years and was lucky enough to use profit from here to offset loss elsewhere. There's always jam tomorrow but they have significant overheads for such a small company and at the moment I just can't see where the profit can come from to justify a share price like this or higher. I wish you well as I do Michael Laurier but I think the BOD are taking too much out in share options and cash remuneration. I keep it on my radar, maybe I'll be tempted back in in the future.

I suspect they could find the most valuable diamond in history and the share price would still not change. Still a long way from my £1.55 original in price.

Overall we're doing well - certainly some are doing very well!!! Just not me....

I just listened to the audio. They will look at divi/special divi/share buyback after H2. Different shareholders have differing opinions. They want yo maintain a cash position. They have some debt to pay off when they sell Ghagoo which they will want to sort out when it's sold. They now have binding offers which they are considering, with a hope that it's sorted by the end of this year. Sustainable Capital seemed to be very interested as to when gemd would do something for the ordinary shareholder, I guess they've taken a large position so they want to know if that will translate into some sort of return in the short term. I also guess that means some sort of return for the rest of us in the more medium term! That was my understanding of the audio call.

Guess he sold to Helium Rising Stars.

10% of the company in the last 2 days.wonder who?

Always seems like such a long haul with this one. A familiar TU never particularly illuminating, just another hold on for a few months and we'll give you a little bit more. All the while I'm just hoping one day I'll wake up look at the share price and go 'Whooppee Doo'. Back to bed for now Zzzzzzzzzzz.

Well at the risk of the usual negative comments from unowho, I have to say ... imo it moved up from 15 to over 30 on little more than hot air and publicity and now it's corrected back to 15 on cold air and bad publicity. There's unlikely to be much more to it than that. It's not a bad price for where the company is. The figures give the story. If the figures change then the price will re-rate. And no I'm not bitter I didi very nicely but decided I was overweight and it was time to reallocate

Thanks jayfax. I was starting to think it was just me. Let's face it, it is hard to get a balanced view on most boards because the majority of posts are only by people who have rose tinted glasses when it comes to their shares. All they are really good for is whiling away the hours and making you feel good about yourself - even as, in many cases, the share price is tumbling in front of you.

Well Sam you've obviously sussed it. Someone clearly has an issue with someone else. A very strange BBC clip, but that's not surprising, for this public service broadcaster, they are completely biased with their reporting. I wonder how they get a licence to operate. So Symphony Environmental is at the cutting edge with a great product - leading the world, but hang on it doesn't work underwater where there's not much oxygen and it leaves fragments of plastic in water which if not exposed to oxygen will not decompose and will leave micro plastic for our prawn starters to gourge on. If that doesn't smack of a person's nose being put out of joint by someone on the Symphony team, or the oxo biodegradable lobby, or just the competition trying to queer the pitch then I don't know what does. But lets look at it. SYM gets all it's profit and turnover from d2w. It's mkt cap based on turnover is far far too high and despite years of the promise of jam tomorrow the turnover does not seem to increase very much, yet there are so many good things coming in the near future ..... sure sure. d2w is just a trademark for the batch additive. Other people make other additives that do the same. It's not the only company with the rights to sell oxo biodegrable plastic additives. All the recent talk of reducing plastic in our environment is making people want to stop using once obly plastic and substitute it with nothing or something like a paper product. People don't want plastic that disappears if there is an alternative. Also the share issue keeps getting diluted with shares for the board. There isn't much sign of a dividend and nothing much for the outside investor. All my opinions of course. But remember Don't believe anything the BBC tells you.

Try advfn

Looks good doesn't it. I wonder what the share price will do!

Anyone see the article suggesting a dividend or share buy back later on this year? Maybe things are picking up. H1 update now that's what I'm waiting for.

Looks a bit high risk for me, I�ve had enough of these in the past. But I�ll see what the year end figures look like. If they run to -800,000 as per the estimates and if there�s been the cash call, or there�s no need for it I may join you. Gemd is one of mine atm. Hoping for more traction when the trading update comes through.

Rising even not oving ..

I wonder if supply is drying up here, price oving nicely

Hi there, was wondering if you were still with us. 20p sounds like a good target. I�m so glad that I doubled up at 8.25p. Normally wrong, but it feels like we are on an upward leg atm. Soon, I may be able to put stop loss on, deep joy. My PFC sold out again on me just shy of �6 and I see the shortersare moving back so I�m hoping to be able to get back in there in a couple of weeks. That company has given me an 80% rise since November, if only all investments were so simple.
