RE: How many times have I said28 Jul 2018 13:21
Although the Press Release was the trigger for yesterdays excitement there were several other straws in the wind recently.What sparked my interest were the change in tone and content in Cathy's emails.She seemed to be going out of her normal stock phrases about sharing our frustration----events out of our control etc etc and was now flaging up 'Arthur's Excitement,that we were in a queue,that there were no other issues,holding up approval,and for me most importantly,that Kola was engaging directly with NNPC.
Then we could see for ourselves that a relatively small group were seemingly accumulating a large number of dshares which were brought to light late in the day. Then there was the 6000000 trade just a few days ago.Finally,yesterday we heard that 25 companies had had their Licences renewed.. OK nothing definitive but on AIM you have to look for clues and take an informed gamble to getin early.
Of course I and many others may be wrong but I'm prepared to take that chance. As you say Jay,Monday will be interesting. MMs may try to dampen enthusiasm for their own reasons or we could see another very Blue day.
Finally,the Canadian Exchange in Toronto seems to have caught fire too with good volume and a 50% rise. I know it goes up in increments of 5 but still impressive.GLA
