Further news on NVTA. They are definitely listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) hopefully by June. This will create extra demand from Canadian investors, which should give the SP a boost. They will of course still be listed on AIM.

They are similar in a way to MONI, in that they provide advanced mobile phone solutions to developing countries. Have a look at the website, they have an excellent presentation on video and as a Powerpoint type presentation. They provide e-mail and Internet services via their 'Mobile Gateway' software and in partnership with a Korean manufacturer have just introduced the '$99 dollar Smartphone' and hope it will sell in millions. Tom Bulford did a piece in 'Penny Sleuth' about them today so they will be on the radar tomorrow. He may well tip them in PSG at some point. Strategy could be to stay with it long term and watch it grow or wait until it doubles then sell up and move on. My feeling is that they could well become very big in future years as they develop their products.

Stick with me kid, you'll wear diamonds ! They've only just started so hang on. I just sold some FRES and bought a boatload of SYNC. One of the big holders decided to sell 12m at 1.62p and the SP dropped 27%. I had a good look at it and concluded that it has been overdone so got in at 2.4p Fingers crossed it should get back over 3p pretty quickly as the sharks pile in. Might still be worth it if sub 3p you've got cash sitting around. You're having a good day today. NVTA, HAWK, MWA all up ,, let's hope it stays that way.

Oh.. lots of skeletons! mainly involving women. Found some relatives that came over from the US in 1680, so their families must have gone out there early on. Also found a link back to Roger De Sandbach, who came over in 1066 with William l. He was given most of Cheshire as a reward (hence Sandbach) but sadly his descendants gambled it all away or married it off with their daughters and it ended up with the Breretons, Egertons, De Traffords and Legh's. Sadly none left for me. I'm sure CSLT wont go bump, they're just very lazy shares, bit like HAWK & MWANA, they should do well, but for some reason don't. I think it's a fashion thing Oh well, tomorrow's another day.

Glad the medical research is looking good. I had a quiet weekend catching up on my family tree, I tend to do it in spurts when the mood takes me. Just found some more back in the 1720's but I've not verified all of them so haven't added them just yet. Very quiet here this week. CSLT seems to have gone back to sleep and the miners are creeping back up, so not trading at all at the moment. To be honest, I'm looking at ditching CSLT and putting the funds to better use. I can't see any major movement in the SP until the interims are out in July and there are better opportunities to be had. They should be better than the Final's that we've just had and may take the SP up a bit, but it seems stuck in 'Trundle' mode at the moment. With drilling about to start in the Falklands, the oilers down there are going to rocket, and if they strike lucky on the first spud... Ooohh Eeee Baby !!! Whilst CSLT sleeps on. Then again, if they get a duster and CSLT get a bid - If If If....

It happens to us all sometimes. I didn't do the research and bought in on advice of a friend, who had heard about the TO. It did rise briefly, then fell back. Since then I've looked a bit closer and can't really see much happening here. At 6p, you should be OK.

Whatever else you sell, hang on to Noventa and Kryso. Noventa especially will do very well in future years. They will have one of the major sources of Tantalum and can produce it at a lower cost than most other producers. The Chinese and Americans are buying up all the Rare Earth metals they can, so when this starts producing, it will have buyers lining up. I will be in very shortly. I did read the FT article regarding AKT online. It didn't really say anything new, other than the writer had a stake and he was trying to improve the value of it. I'm always sceptical of the professional 'Rampers' , they should be banned. ICX were written up by one such writer, Tom Bulford I think, in one of the penney share rags, the price increased as more mugs were sucked in a few weeks later they went t1ts up. I wonder whether he had sold at a profit by then! Good luck with the medical studies !

...investigation, there seems to be a lot of selling going on, probably long termers profit taking, so I will hang on and wait for a drop. Still a very good prospect though and top of my watchlist for a while.

Do you remember I mentioned a company a while ago called Seeing (LSE:SEE)? Well, they've just sold their first driver alertness system (DSS) to a mining company and the SP is up 25% today. Sadly I didn't get in, (not following my own advice again!) but as this is the first order and they have other systems on trial with other potential customers, it may be worth a shot if you have any spare cash.

This is what's known as a cr4p share. There was talk of a TO, but that's not going to happen with the Board at loggerheads and at best this is a long term hold, at worst it will run out of funds and be sold off cheaply, or be sold by administrators. Personally, I'm out as soon as it hits 7p (or earlier if I get really pi55ed off!). One of those companies you wished you'd stayed away from. All IMO of course. Not that I'm bitter you understand. Hate you to think that.

Just read through the GLI RNS in more detail and it seems that the company was struggling to make the interest payments and remain profitable. It was a good company but I feel the Board looked after their own interests at the cost of PI's. I was lucky, I got out with a small profit, (which would have been a large profit this morning), but others bought in far above 140p and they will be facing large losses. I really do think that trading the miners is the best option, for now anyway. I say that, but then I look again at ANGM, AKT, PYM, etc, etc... and think they will make me rich. Which they may well do...one day.

Crystal Ball...Time Machine...Yes , very useful. I sold 10k's worth of GLI last month in my 'clear out' at 72p a pop. Today they have announced a 140p per share offer. I sold them as my wife works for the company and they had been laying people off and cut all overtime etc. Usual actions for a company in trouble, so I got out. So how good am I ! Yes, apart from the SIPP, which I am looking at 'adjusting' , it's only CSLT and FRES, KAZ and ENRC at the moment. The miners sre on the way up again, I did manage to get in really cheaply last week, so should be OK there. I wonder wether it's worth doing any others to be honest. All that time and trouble when the miners just go up and down like the mouse in Hickory Dickory Dock !

Isn't that always the way. I sold out due to a lack of confidence and a month later, they sell for double the price ! What a world, What a world !

Yes indeed, but you also know I never take my own advice !

Don't know much about SAM, other than they are assett managers and the SP has started to move upwards over the last couple of days. Could be something due. At around 2.3p a rise of 1p would be fantastic, best of luck mate. Just clearing out some files and found a 'buying slip' for ANGM from September last year, 150,000 @ 2p. Wish I'd have kept them ! 7p now and due for another good rise any day now.

I don't read newspapers as you know, so I missed the AKT article. However, yes I agree fully. One of my favourites and I will be back in very soon. If the appeal is won and Cerepro is approved, I can see 50p quite easily. The danger is, of course, if the appeal fails. I don't think they would close, but the SP will be greatly reduced and would not recover for a long time. As you say, not for widows or orphans. What's happening at MWA? Noticed the SP is down at 11p, has there been some news or is it just the fall in metal prices?

is a top ramper, it's how he makes his money. AVCT are a promising company, but I would advise those thinking of getting in to do some research of their own. Look at the charts and the financials and you may avoid paying over the odds for what is still a slightly risky share. As others have said, the SP will fall back, it always does, until good news comes through. This is a good prospect, but it is a long term prospect.

..of 'Tin Hat Days'... I looked at my holdings / watchlist / prospects just now and for the first time in my memory, everything was RED ! - EVERYTHING ! Come on someone, give us some good news. The only glimmer was SKR which is only a 'research project' at the moment so doesn't count, which was up 12% on the sale of 7,500,000 Lehman shares at 22p. Interesting one which I will add to my watchlist. CSLT - doing well in terms of sales today, but not reflected in the SP. We may see a pickup next week I think, lots of interest sub 10p. Agree with your plan for the evening. Nice bowl of Spaghetti, loads of crusty bread and a plateful of smelly cheese and olives, helped along by a bottle (or two) of good Chianti, sod the FTSE ! Have a nice weekend, good luck with Gladys Emmanuelle !

...Now let's get over 7p !

The bad debt, sadly is just that I fear. I managed to track down one of the former employees, who was 'quite scathing' in his comments regarding the closure and the reasons for it. Seems one of the owners was spending all the profits and the other one had sold him his interest back in September and was only working there as an estimator. Needless to say when the cash ran out, so did the owner. We do moan about Britain, but it is still one of the safest places to live in the world. Shame the weather's so bad. I hate this cold, damp, miserable time of year. Roll on April.
