the tweet guy has now changed his settings so he is private not public I see, I also would have thought if the tweet was false then it would have been quite easy to validate with him, he could explain it was not him, proved it quite easily and then we could have been told already, no real harm done.
But that hasn't happened so there must be more to it, we are assuming it was the tweet which drove the suspension, the first RNS said we were suspended, the second one stated that 'following social media speculation........relationship with CITIC is being clarified..........." - so if this is indeed the case and it was all just a hacked account as stated this could have been sorted now.
The other thing that crossed my mind is that it would be a strange account to hack and use for such a purpose really, and the wording of the tweet is probably not what you would state had you hacked the account and had an opportunity to spread some false gossip, would you not rather have suggested a buyer had been identified and perhaps put in a figure of money which would then have really ramped the price.....?
So I tend to believe the guy is for real, the account is for real and he just got caught with his pants down and had not ensured his twitter account was private as he has now done, probably with the help of his kids (that is who I use!).
All this has created a bit of a frenzy, some unhappy people, upset some relationships, and has required the BOD to do some nifty footwork to get the deal done in a timeframe they were not wishing to do.
I remain positive and very intrigued, like many I am 'glued' to the RNS, waiting for the red dot to show up, I would expect that some form of updated RNS will likely come before the weekend as the BOD will realise they need to try and get something out even if it isn't the final one, whether we ever trade again is yet to be seen, and at what price or what form of deal is still very much open to question.
But I could do with this all being over so I can get on with things..................very best of luck to all invested, AIM is not for the faint hearted and as a number of people have already suggested, if this comes good for us, I will slowly off load my AIM shares and get out of AIM for good, stick to the FTSE 100 and 250 which I have been trying to do for a while, this simply speeds up the process.
