It's all gone creepily quiet on board GPRT.

Great day today - I bet Moosey is regretting selling up now. I don't trust H.Brennan at all - they conned me into buying ATG at 32p about 5 years ago. That was before I got a nominee account and was so green that I trusted broker ratings!! Luckily I've bought in at low prices and probably only need 22p to break even. I'm still in long though and won't sell until we get to £1!!

Hi, Nice to know I'm not alone!!! I did sell 1/3 at 28p a few months ago and have watched the SP sink a bit since. I plan to put more in if we go down to 15p. One thing I like about this share is its relative stability compared to the rest of the market. I decided to take a loss on my last financials this week (LLOY and RBS) and put that money into UU today. I think after the last year the more stability the better. My holdings in PYC are giving me as much of a roller coaster ride as I can handle!!

Shame on you - you need patience with this stock. I've held for 5 years (bought and sold in that time). This is a solid company that is well managed and will show a sustained rise next year (as the UK emerges from recession).

Delivery of the Second New-Build Bulk Carrier Goldenport Holdings Inc. ("Goldenport" or "the Company"), (LSE: GPRT) the international shipping company that owns and operates a fleet of container and dry bulk vessels announces that on 12 October 2009 it took delivery of the new-build vessel "Alpine Trader" from the Jiangsu Eastern Heavy Industry Co. Ltd. yard of the Jiangsu Province in China. The vessel commenced on 15 October 2009 its agreed two year time charter at US$ 15,300 per day. The "Alpine Trader" is a Supramax geared bulk carrier with a capacity of 53,800 DWT. This one has been clicking up attractively over the last few days...nice sustained rise to £2 would be nice!!

WOW - I think we've risen about 50% in a week. I see that a few funds have increased their stake. Anyone have any ideas about where we can go from here? £2 would be nice!!

Sold a third of these 2 months ago and keep hoping to top up again. But there is no positive momentum. Any thoughts?

This gradual trickle downwards has seen 20% shed from the SP in 2 months. I can't see any reason - could anyone hypothesise? Below 20p will surely represent a good buying opportunity.

Oh yes, I forgot to mention those 2 huge trades (512,600) - Neither this site nor Barclays has said if they are buy or sell.

Can't fathom the recent SP weakness so decided to top-up at 108. Yield is now 12% so I think we could be looking at a divi cut ahen the results come put - divi cover is very weak with current profit slump. However, I still have long term belief in this share and trust the management to make the right decisions.

I'm afraid my knee jerk reaction kicked in and I sold the lot at a loss. Who knows what damage this affair could do the company. The profits warning too made my decision for me. I put the proceeds into safe old Cable and Wireless because I have a disproportionate number of 'risky' stocks. I will keep JHL in my watchlist and if all seems OK I'll probably jump back in in a few months.

"Jetion Holdings Limited (AIM: JHL), a leading designer, manufacturer and supplier of high quality solar cells and modules, announces that Roger Lijin Gai, Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), together with three senior managers of the Chinese trading subsidiary, have today been dismissed with immediate effect for breaches of their service contracts and fiduciary duties. The Board believes that Mr Gai, together with the three managers, are the operators of a business in direct competition to Jetion. The business is a producer and exporter of solar modules. Mr. Gai failed to disclose to the Company that his wife was a shareholder in the competing business . Current public records show that close relatives of the three managers are shareholders. The Board believes that, by their involvement in this business, these individuals have committed serious breaches of their fiduciary duties to the Company and have material conflicts of interest. As a result, the Board has taken decisive action to dismiss them immediately in order to best protect the interests of the Company and its shareholders.Investigations into the circumstances giving rise to their dismissals continue and the Company is taking further legal action. However, as far as can be ascertained at this time, the Board believes that the actions giving rise to their dismissals have not had a material impact on the finances and business operations of the Company." This is followed by a profits warni

All looks rosie here - lovely rise today. Any other holders out there? What price are you aiming for?

Hi, I just averaged down my holding in JHL today by buying another 2000 at 52p because of the drop over the last 48 hours. I can't say why the SP is so volatile. There aren't that many shares in circulation (like FOUR) so a few relatively modest buys/sells has a big effect. This has to be a great prospect in the mid/long term and I would suggest that 52p is a very decent entry point. I'm not suggesting it won't drop further - you never can tell in the current climate. All the news seems to be good and the brokers universally recommend it as a buy. With the ever decreasing fossil fuel scenario solar has to be the future for those nations that get some sun!!

My stop loss triggered this a.m. at 70p so I'm all sold up with LGEN. 80% profit in 2 months will have to do. Good luck to the rest of you - I'm still holding RBS, LLOY and OML in the financials. Of those I think LLOY has the greatest up-side, though it may be 1-2 years before it's realised.

I bought some of these when they floated and have watched them drop from 36p. I bought more in March to average down. The spread is 200%!! I paid 10p and made an instant paper loss. At least this rise is giving me some confidence. Does anyone know why the sp has rise dramatically today - no deals are shown. Anyone else buying these - and why? Cheers!!

I've held these from the start and had to endure a huge fall. I took the plunge to average down when the SP was 36p. I was confident of a rally but you never can tell. I still need 80p to achieve parity - these should go above £1 easily, though that could be a while away. Lovely end to a good week.

Anyone know of what may be behind the big rise today?

Yes, it warms the cockles to see this even, controlled and hopefully sustained rise. 25p by August would be a reasonable target.

I thought my portfolio was suffering a slow painful death until this un-expected rise.
