"Myo, do you reckon it’s all PI’s?"

IMO, yes.

"The fall in the SP has nothing to do with the state of play but all to do with the Global mini crash."

Partly agree with that, but unfortunately the timing of the tunnel and delay in stage 2 finance announcements has coincided with the mini-crash and thus magnified the fall, causing many PI's to lose perspective.

A lot of people who bought in the high 30s and low 40s recently will have sold and lost a lot. Unfortunately, they will miss out on the bounce and on the inevitable future increase, which will one day pass the point of no retrace.

"Sub 23p a good price?"

My portfolio is already overweight with SXX. Please stop tempting me. But, wow, this is a gift at this price!

Yep, definitely here for the divs Chesh.

"£26k invested and £10k down is nothing to worry about yes ?"

My very first investment in Sirius was some years back when I bought £25k and shortly after was over £10k down, too. Almost sold, but research said it wasn't staying down forever. Some months later I did sell the lot, for £30k, making just over £5k.

Well, here I am again down big time. However, the long term prospects are even clearer than they were before. So this time I will not even be selling when the SP gets to 45p, though I may let a few go at 55p - but only a few! Really only interested in £1+

' "Just" beating the bank is not good enough. '

Too right KOH!

Especially when one takes into account all the research and work to minimise tax liabilities in the good years. That's why I've decided to put my feet up for a while.

Still beating the bank, but only just. After all the falls in the recent weeks, here and elsewhere, my capital has averaged about 2% per annum over the last six years.

Oh well, putting my feet up now and waiting for the bounce.

"my portfolio looks like a disaster movie car crash"

So does mine! But despite the sea of red (or maybe because of it) I am desperately trying to keep my hand off the buy button. We all know where this is going long term.

"If, in this day and age, we can't get proper information."

Totally agree, would love to see the end of this disingenuous system of recording trades as "Buy" or "Sell".

"looking at a £44k loss"

JP58, join the club. I lost £45k when I bailed at about 2.5p.

"It really doesn't seem to want to break through 25p."

We were saying that about 35p not so long ago. And at some point we will be saying it about 45p, 55p, 65p ... in the future.

"all investments funds will be in here already"

Build and they will come.

Too right! It's killing this share.

"Nearly down to my so called impossible .8 buy in price."

Having sold out at 2.5p at an enormous loss I stated some months ago that my buy-back price was 0.85p, with the additional hope that Eric was gone. Well, both conditions have now been fulfilled. So I'm hoping this share does something soon: go to 0p or take off like a rocket - take your pick.

In either case I'll be too late to the funeral or the party.

SXX is the highest riser of my stocks this morning.

ChrisFrance, you are getting desperate posting such old news ...

Just got back from a bike ride to see that we are well above the market today. Nice!

Will see the same on Monday.

"Back to the 30's"

Now the panic's over, all those people wanting in at an unrealistic price seem to have given up.

Told you yesterday we were set up for blue today. Thursday was your best chance. Missed it? Never mind, you will still do very well over the next few weeks buying at the current level.

Well, my portfolio's daily change percentage is currently a sea of blue. Hope it's that way at the end of the day.

"If anyone would like to check you will find unbelievably that the closing share price is a better performance than both the FTSE100 and the FTSE250."

Already ready noted that. Worth pointing it out, though.
