....to combat this usual spewed-up, banal, urban myth. I said sell when the price was in single digits, and anyone other than an out-and-out gambler would have done so, until the admin problem was sorted out [total moral hazard to my ethics]. Then as it climbed into double-digits, at least that risk had temporarily been shelved, so those, who were true investors, could make an informed decision. PS I still think that I’ll be proven correct that this share is shafted! ATB

Now if one had opened one this morning...that would have been a diferenent matter! Unfortunately, I didn't. ATB

I have just given the classic demonstration of the reason, that there are some posters on here, which are best never to engage in conversation. I rest my case. Catch you later.

Stop telling porkies. When I mentioned it to you when you first started posting on here, your excuse was that there was already, an oilbaron, and you couldn’t use it.

…holding a short position this week [however I was in and out last week]. Looking ahead there will be opportunities, as this is an industry with lots of problems, going forward. ATB

:) Just wait until there is some good news.

Live price 48.5p/49.5p, mate

Yes, it's been a tricky time – however I’m sure you will make a comeback. I’ve had a fairly torrid time with some of my investments, also recently. Thanks goodness for bullion, and associated shares. It’s all about times and seasons, and we are certainly going through “interesting times” right now. However, eventually, once the government stops propping up our basket-case economy [that may take until the next election] then I believe that I may well be proven correct as an uber-bear. ATB

Long time no speak. Hands full elsewhere, but these situations are interesting, but dodgy. Just look at some of the shenanigans going on with some recent takeovers. Nothing is simple, or even makes sense, at the moment. ATB

Hilarious, most think that they have license to mock shorters when the price rises, but very few sensible shorters bother to reciprocate when the price drops like a stone. ATB

..come in when the price spikes upwards. Beware!

"Compared with vaguely positive comments from one or two of its rivals, yesterday’s third-quarter trading update from InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) looked rather downbeat. Third-quarter numbers beat consensus forecasts but the tone of the comments sent the shares down 17½p to 825p. The economic picture remains hard to call but IHG’s strong brands and US exposure should enable it to prosper when a recovery ensues. Despite a full-looking multiple of 18 times 2010 earnings, hold on, says the Times."

…..we don’t have too much regression with this one! It served me well, in days gone by, but I’m still nursing a little deficit. Now where is that little nurse!?

Yes I’ve been in above the current price, for a while, as well. It was from back in the days when I frequently traded GFM and ORE, as they use to move a fair bit. So they are just sitting there for now, but I do think this one should climb eventually. ATB

...this one should be double the price - then I'd be happy!

Steer well clear of that BB, it appears to be a breeding-bed for putty-heads, yet again!! ATB

I think they a ramping JJB for now! Super clowns!! ATB

"Cadbury shares initially tumbled from just below 770p to just below 745p on the announcement of the bid terms but later moved back into the blue. The Kraft terms value each Cadbury share at 717p based on Friday’s closing share price for Kraft."

..to Fridays good news?
