From the other side of the fence, this share is def worth a punt in my view. Reasons to buy in? MOU signed with Technoplus with a view to raising capital by issuing shares at 3X current SP value. Uzbek court case making progress with MTT seeking sunbstanial damages after shutdown of Moly plant. Not to mention the strong W demand and possibility of Chinese JV. Market cap of 1.8 million :D Even a proposed delist is built in at this price. With any sort of interest this share could hit 15p by Monday morning!

FRO making waves in the US overnight; up 7% in NOR this morning. Its a hell of a long way back but at least we're on a positive track! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TiyTh9cYqL4&feature=related

Fredriksens twin daughters!! Now they've got some FRONT! Can think of worse ways to get your hands on Frontline 2012 shares :) http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mmBw3uzPnJI/TBD6PTRd8YI/AAAAAAABVV4/ybgktq_DByk/s1600/Hottest_Billionaire_Heiresses_27.jpg

Well the refinancing's been completed. No shares in 'the consolidator' FRO 2012 but we appear to have escaped with at least some shareholder value intact. Questionable though, what state Big Johns left us in and whether we'll ever recover to profitability. 86% slump is pretty dilutive after all but Cheers anyway! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EoF6d-b0AtI&feature=results_video&playnext=1&list=PLBF15552F457EE8BF

from RS Platou Markets; haven't seen one of those in a while. Strong gains in Oslo and the US, leaving the mm's behind the game here. Eddie Grant issues positive note! ;) www.youtube.com/watch?v=ci1ywEPE6Uk&feature=related

Thats what it feels like, Ahh well, www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxaHa136a1I

Could this be the answer to loss making charters? Alternatively, after the spate of rioting perhaps HM prison service could consider Frontline in providing temporary accommodation for the convicted. Could give them fishing rods as well :D www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-06-28/statoil-hires-frontline-vlcc-to-store-crude-at-sea-optima-says.html

Looks like Frontline are operating a fleet of Titanics but they're all uncharted :D and instead of the band playing we've got Eddie Grant crooning away on deck as FRO slides into the deep! www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOo9eDNvpQU&feature=related

I've been in for over a year and glad as its been a pretty solid performer. Wish I'd grabbed some more on the dips below 200p but with market conditions we could well see that price again so holding on for now. Whats great here is whilst the shipping sector remains depressed we're still turning a decent profit with a strong dividend as testament. Weak shipping rates are going to stifle growth somewhat. Still, the expansion into dry cargo could prove a savvy move as I believe an earlier recovery is forecast there. Choppy waters for other shipping stocks however, you in anything else?

Historic low was around 12p in Nov08, 8 months later the SP had quadrupled! ;)

Big week coming up here, are we set for another pounding or is the SP going to stabilise round the mid-teens? All very reminicent of late 08 with general market sentiment, furnace closures and a huge drop in price. I guess one question to ask is are we in a better position now than two years ago. Its a hard one to call, I seem to remember we had both furnaces shut last time round and prices were rock bottom. Things have improved but two years on with our stockpiles eroded and cash frittered away we seem to be in a precarious position to say the least. We haven't dropped a third in a fortnight for nothing!! as always with IFL the news is factored in before we can react, Price of FECR, more furnace issues, placing to raise cash? it should all become apparent in the next few days or so. One things for sure I felt like selling up in 08 as I feel like selling up now. I felt quesy at the though of topping up in 08 like I feel queasy at the thought of topping up now. Deja vous but the big difference is Im hoping Iv got the patience and the guts I was lacking 2 years ago to see me through it. (pity I don't have the cash I had 2 years ago :) Big test of faith for all long termers over the coming months, still Its easier the second time around don't they say?! :)

Nerchance! As Mark Lawrenson would say!

Final word goes to the unlikely poster boy for the Wet tanker market..... Mr Eddie Grant everyone! ;) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4JHG2rECZo&feature=related

Just hit a 7 year low here, and according to Mr Troeim we're in for 5 years of PAIN! “We have just started on a down-cycle that will be brutal.” Nice one Tor! best to keep positive eh?! Looks like Im in for the long haul, and it ****ing will be seeing as they're cutting tanker speeds to reduce costs. Oh well, Im off for a lie down below deck, see you in 2017! http://www.businessweek.com/news/2011-05-24/shipping-in-brutal-five-year-slump-frontline-s-troeim-says.html

Eddies feeling seasick! http://www.iii.co.uk/investment/detail/?display=news&code=cotn:FRO.L&action=article&articleid=8248410 Results out next Weds

Well, looks like I got that one wrong, not so exciting owning a £13.50 share, Id top up if I wasn't so skint! Hit it Mr Grant! www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcM3r1vUDxg&feature=related

www.iii.co.uk/investment/detail?code=cotn:HCL.L&display=news&it=le Looking good, divi of over 7%. Get yourself on the register! :)

What a day!!! Thought SLV was the rock in my portfolio until I realised we've not relisted yet, and a ****ing good job too. Looks like the BOD have played a blinder well done lads! Hopefully things will have blown over (radioactive materiels excluded) by the time we're back trading. If not we'll be staring at an instant drop to 30p no doubt :(
