The 1000 sell at 1335p was at virtually the day low price. It definitely looks like somebody set-up a stop loss and the MMS took them out.

Compare this to one of the better timed sells:

22-Sep-25 16:16:17 1,450.00 857 Sell* 1,420.00 1,490.00 12.43k O

Nicely timed and the person walks away with an extra 8.6% for their shares. I don't know which broker they used, but most brokers were only offering 1440p to sell at that time. That's why I wouldn't personally do a stop loss on HEMO!

You also need to think carefully if it is worth putting on a stop loss on shares where there is higher than average volatility. A couple of minutes ago a 1000 share sell went through at 1335p. I personally wouldn't think selling HEMO at 1335p was getting a good deal, but this was probably MMs briefly taking the bid price down to collect any stop losses!

Today was a busy trading day, with £3.1M buys and £6.1M sells. Price drifted down virtually all day and the day low of around 377p was hit just before 15:00. The price started to recover a bit into the close.

Several sizeable after-hours trades:

19-Sep-25 16:47:09 383.738 10,816 Sell* 385.80 387.60 41.51k O

19-Sep-25 16:47:00 384.80 26,503 Buy* 385.80 387.60 101.98k O

19-Sep-25 16:43:05 384.80 72,377 Buy* 385.80 387.60 278.51k O

19-Sep-25 16:36:26 385.00238 211,273 Buy* 385.80 387.60 813.41k O

3 big buys totalling around £1.2M and only £42K sells. All transactions were below the final bid price, which is a bit weird. This could be dozens of PIs who sold their shares during the day gave a couple of big investors a chance to buy a decent amount in the closing auction. Anybody seen this pattern before?

Maybe things will be clearer on Monday.

The £700K has been received and 3,500,000 should be added on Monday. It will be interesting to see whether this will pull the price of the other circa 395m issued shares up a bit or if the purchaser is playing a long game. They must be confident that Fiinu shares are really going to take off to pay such a big premium over the price at the time.

There were around £260K sells and £558K buys today, yet the price dropped by around 15%. Then these sizable delayed trades appear after close that are apparently unknown whether they were buys or sells. They add up to over £300K and looking at the prices quoted they appear to be buys. I was looking at the transactions near closing on Google Finance as they quote the price of the trade and also the number of shares traded.

The share price chart showed a constant drip drip down in SP for hours (despite buys exceeding sells consistently through the day). Coming towards the final 30 minutes:

A few buys of 450 @ 760p, 359 @ 757p come through around 15:55. A sell comes through at 712p at 16:01 (of only 16 shares). This is virtually at the day low and happens within the final 30 minute trading window. A cynic might think this was done in the hope of getting some sells. The PIs would see the last trade at 712p but their "generous" broker was still offering a few pence more than the 712p sell. After the last frantic 30 minutes of activity over £300K of delayed buys come through after the market has closed.

Well I think the 2 previous posters have used up the electrical puns, so I won't bother trying...

Today was slightly disappointing, as I was expecting LUCE to charge towards the top of the leader board today. An almost 10% rise wasn't too bad, but LUCE battery just didn't have enough juice to do it. I'll just need to ACcept that tomorrow is another day...

Looks like everybody holding OMI shares has a GOLDEN opportunity to make some money...

The recent share price decline was unexpected and must turn around soon. I thought I was getting in at the bottom at 130p.

One good thing is LUCE price has historically had occasional rapid rises and to me looks like great value at the current price. The negative is the percentage of shorters has increased to the highest level in the last few years. Let's hope they have got things wrong and lose some money!

You'd think LUCE wasn't doing well at the current price - down over 10% in 1 month and 20% in 1 year. Their sales are up year on year and have diversified into the vehicle charging market which should further increase future sales.

Somebody else must also think it a strong buy - £50k buy at 0.92p

We have had 12 trades - all sells at 0.1p or slightly higher. Normally do will drop if sells far exceed buys. Price is holding above 0.1p so maybe MMs are fishing for shares to fill a buy.

Nobody knows for sure - everybody is guessing.

My guess is:

1) Sidara still need a little more time to sort out their final offer or are still negotiating with Wood behind closed doors.

2) Wood are unlikely to be able to provide updated accounts by the end if the month, so the shares will be suspended until they supply these accounts.

3) There are rules regarding what quantity of shares that institutions can hold in shares that are suspended - I'm not in finance and don't know the rules, but it does look likely that shares will be suspended by month end.

4) Shares cannot be traded during suspension and there are several significant unknowns. Will Sidara actually make a firm offer? I think that they will. How significantly different are the previously stated results to the amended results?

5) Sidara's offer of 35p is low. They have seen the books and have an idea of the current state of Wood's finances.

The low offer suggests either Sidara are attempting to buy on the cheap or they may have valued Wood for what it is worth. The fact that Wood seem to be receptive to what appears to be a low offer suggests that the finances aren't looking good. The Wood management have rejected previous takeovers at over 200p so it rather unexpected that they are saying they would be open to accept 35p if Sidara make a firm offer. This either suggests the finances are so bad that 35p is better than continuing to trade themselves or Wood management think the shareholders won't vote for the takeover.

The above us my guess about what is happening and I am continuing to hold through suspension and expecting Sidara to buy Wood.

Buys now caught up with sells. £1.25m of trades each. Still quite quiet and not the frantic activity I was expecting...

Currently £737k sells and £332k buys. Let's see if the buys start to ramp up. We look slightly closer to getting a definite offer and hopefully the shorts will start to close.

Another almost 2 weeks of fun and games ..

Luca, was it a stop loss that was executed at that price?

I bought some more at 23.08p to bring my average from around 40p to 35p. Hopefully Sidara has just made a low opening offer of 35p and it gets increased during final negotiations.

I am aware of happyhaddock who posted on the OMI board a while back. This post does make some sense when looking at a company from a pessimistic perspective rather than wearing rose tinted glasses like some holders.

OMI has taught me about patience and realising that timescales with junior miners tend to drag out a lot longer than the optimists thought and lead others to believe. It took me a LONG term me to see a decent profit with OMI but if you believe in a company you need to continue to hold and expect a few hiccups along the way.

IMO HE1 has the potential for plenty of upside but things aren't going to happen overnight. They need to either find a big partner or funding to get Tanzania producing Helium and this isn't going to happen overnight.

Sorry about the truncated message - finger trouble on the phone.

There was one manager who was with the company for years and he had built up a 6 figure share holding in the company. I always wondered if he took some of the money out before the company went bust or if he ended up losing the lot. Apart from the kitchen I lost the rest of my shares. I even continued to pay into the share savings scheme thinking that the company fortunes would improve eventually and by the time I realised this was unlikely to happen the shares were worth a pittance anyway...

Shedding staff very quarter for a couple of years before they finally pulled out if the UK and later went bust. At least I did get a new kitchen out if my share savings scheme...

I think you can treat your wife to a new kitchen. Hopefully the only question is when. If a decent offer is made by Sidara it will be quick but even if talks fail then it will take Wood a bit longer to get the finances back on track and get the market cap back up to a more sensible level.

I remember back in the early 2000s I sold some of the shares in the company I worked for to get a new kitchen. It was around £4k I sold to cover buying the units from IKEA and oak worktops. Other guys were laughing at me selling, as the share price kept rising for another few months after I sold. Then the Dotcom bubble burst and the share price fell substantially. The companystarted

And share price almost back up to 1p again ..
