The "totaliser" volume for shares traded is 950K but the buys and sells add up to 220K - so who has bought or sold the other 730K - hopefully a back ground buyer is hoovering up the shares at these low prices and we will see an upward move in the SP soon. I think the shares hit £5 - 6 years ago so - "Way to Go HOC"

Strange world we live in - Idiot Trump loose cannon causing world wide havoc and BREXIT turning EU inside out - you would have thought that gold and gold companies would be "safe havens" and booming - but the opposite is happening. I was last in HOC at 200p when I thought it would not go lower but sold with a small loss and am now thinking of buying back in but looking at the fundamentals of HOC and its low level of debt I am amazed that the SP is at 173p and very few people are buying the shares. I do not think it will go back down to 150p because since that time Inmaculada Mine has come on stream and is outperforming all forecasts for profitability. I have noticed that the HOC BOD has a knack of producing good RNS which the market sees as bad RNS !!!

I think that the best plan is to use 50% of my gambling pot to buy HOC and keep 50% back for further buys if the SP continues to drop.

This is a flat week on the market due to lots of reports due - including a Thursday rate hike expected from the BoE

GL all with your own plans

Would be nice to finish back at 1.40p at close of play

UKOG is worth whatever the market wants to pay - like an auction - the more buyers the more the SP rises - little to do with fundamentals or graphs - just pure luck if you are making profits. Last year I gambled £20K buying UKOG at about 2p average - sold at about 8p - one of the best trades I have ever had. This year I looked at UKOG at 1p and chickened out of buying - I thought the risk of UKOG going bust was too high ! LOL - if I had gambled again like I did last year I would still be up about £20k !!!! However - I am in now for £18K at an average 2p so I am hoping for a SP rise soon. If it goes back down to 1p - manipulated by the market mafia - I will buy another £18k to bring down my average and hope that the BOD can come up with some good news.

Regards all - roller coaster rides are more interesting than flat lining "safe " shares IMO

gingerT - since becoming PM by the back door May has pushed all the WRONG buttons - she is the worst PM this country has EVER had in its history. If she had triggered Article 50 - as cowardly Cameron promised before scuttling out of no 10 -she would have avoided all the eruptions and angst that were allowed to build up across the country. She should also not have called another GE - foolishly thinking to increase her majority - but was wiped out and is now under the DUP thumb. She should NOT have promised to refund all costs of BREXIT to the remaining 27 countries - what a Xmas present for them all. She should NOT have agreed to pay £39 billion divorce bill for NO concessions from the EU.

If Maggie Thatcher was still PM we would be out of the EU by now with no penalties and a very fair trade agreement. She would also have demanded a return of our rebates which were given away by Toady Blair on the promise of CAP reform - which has never happened - being blocked totally by French farmers.

We cannot trust the EU un-elected political dictators in Brussels to give us a fair deal - they are all dedicated to destroying the UK any way they can. I wonder if they will still be smirking at us when we turn our backs on the EU and trade directly with the rest of the world. The EU - like all empires - is doomed to fall apart in the next few years.

The Spanish French and Germans have all had Trade Wars with us in the last few hundred years and they all lost ! I look forward to them losing this one as well

Trump is keen to take on Iran in a "hot" war - being egged on by Saudi Arabia and Israel - deadly enemies of Iran. I do not think the Ayatollahs are aware of the danger they are in - with the USA`s modern technology Trump can stand back and launch huge missile attacks that would destroy all the significant Iranian infrastructure in just a couple of days.

Trump is now spoiled for choice - who does he attack first - South Korea (Mr President - I hope you mean NORTH Korea !) - China - the EU - Canada - Mexico - Iraq (surely you mean IRAN !) - Germany (Round 3) - or all of them at once ?

As the Emperor Hirohito said in 1941 - " If all around the World all men are brothers - why do the winds and waves speak constantly of war ?"

Forget the stock market - invest in air raid shelters !

In 2008 I predicted a major stock market crash coming and went into 100% cash - my low point SM prediction was Q1 2009 which was when I bought back in and made some very good profits in 2009 and Q1 2010.

I now see a similar situation developing through Dimwit Trump`s World Trade War and the BREXIT milestones of October 2018 and March 2019. I will be all in cash by September 2018 expecting a major fall in EU stock markets in October if no deal is agreed with the UK. Even if a deal is agreed in October it will need discussion and agreement by 27 other EU members to avoid a "hard" BREXIT in April 2019.

I am sure we are heading for a hard BREXIT reinforced by the dire effects of Trump`s trade wars on China and the EU.

2019 will see a repeat of the world wide SM crashes and Recession will return IMO

I will be 100% in cash in September and 100% in cash in January 2019 - but day trading if and when a good SP with a decent company arises

Regards all - gold may well come back into its own as SMs collapse - but lurking in the background is the criminal activities in the crypto currencies area which may drag off a lot of investors looking for quick gains

Queen Victoria sent her ambassador - Lord Longstaff to the court of the Chinese Emperor where he was given a Chinese translation of his name - it was only later that he discovered the Chinese words translated as "Big Penis"

I worked with a Civil Servant called Hunt who was very unpopular but my boss liked the first name that I gave him - Isaac

It would not be the first nor the last POTUS to be assassinated or seriously shot up while in office. If Trump stays on as POTUS next year we will see panic setting in in EU countries as the UK goes through a hard BREXIT. Stock markets - including UK - will crash - similar to the 2008/9 drop so I will be all in cash - as I was at the end of 2008 - buying back in in early 2009 - LLOY at 40p - selling at end 2009 for 125p - BARC at 50p - selling early 2010 for 230p.

Looking across the markets now it seems that SPs are generally going sideways - but will crash down at end 2018 IMO. October EU deadline will be the trigger - if no coherent BREXIT deal is agreed with traitor May and her cowardly Cabinet.

All IMOO but I was right in 2008 about a world wide market crash being imminent !

From Q4 would be a good time to be all in cash

Pokerchips - perhaps Trumpton`s remark yesterday that the US was late for WW1 and WW2 but he will start WW3 early - No 1 target China followed by the EU no doubt !

Life imitating art - I remember Peter Sellars playing a RAF officer who planned to start WW3 and a mad US security adviser (ex NAZI) who was controlling an unbalanced US President !!! Very similar to where we are now !!!

Good news is POG would race upwards just before the start of WW3

It was a long hard slog for PMO to get its ducks in line on the debts it owes but the long term plan is now paying off and the SP is at a much higher level - although subject to POO oscillations - and various projects are moving along for the "golden years of 2019 to 2022" - one of these projects is Sea Lion and a FID is due in Q4 2018. In the mean time RKH is at a good SP at the mo and will really rocket upwards if PMO makes a positive FID this year. Discussions are ongoing for a "Big Boy" backing for Sea Lion - but these things take time. I first invested in RKH just before oil was discovered but sold out with a good profit and have not been back since. However I am keeping an eye on Sea Lion progress and will buy back in if a positive FID arrives

I have no complaints about the previous performance of the HOC SP - I first bought in early 2016 and then bought and sold as the SP went all the way to the 300s - i kept saying "How long can this go up ?" Since then I have had some good sells and buy backs and overall am well in profit - so I am a bit puzzled now with the SP at 180p and sticking there - when it does finally go up it will move really fast so I am keeping an eye out for more buying when the uplift starts.

Patience is the word

Pokerchips - like the Curate`s Egg HOC is good in parts ! There is something badly wrong with a company whose SP is almost 50% down on a year ago - I always have in the back of my mind the stab in the back from old man HOC last year when he sold 49% of his shares (nearly 16 million) at 270p netting himself a profit of about £30 million. He sent the wrong message to the markets !!! I have been trading in and out of HOC ever since - when the SP moves up it is very fast and for no apparent reason - also moves down on the back of an excellent RNS - when the SP hit 200p recently I thought it was a good buy in point - now it is around 180p - so who knows what is next ? I would have thought that with the loose cannon Trump causing chaos in the world of finance that POG would be much higher than it is now - last year all the "experts" were predicting massive rises in POG and POS when I was saying that there was no real basis for a massive rise - but I am puzzled by the lacklustre performance of POG and POS this year.

My guesstimate is that the HOC SP will slowly climb over the next year - but Trump and BREXIT could shatter the EU and cause another world wide recession

Anyone`s trading plan could be right - hold long term - sell out and invest in other companies - or day trade the ups and downs

Regards and GL

No great reaction to the RNS - SP sitting at about 180p

Looking good today - at last ! Q2 Report tomorrow - I hope it is good news which will send the SP back up again - my average is 185p so "way to go yet" - but when you look back at recent 200p or 300p heights - we can but hope that the worm has turned now

Pokerchips - well said - Von Clausewtz the German CinC said in the 19th century "If you fight battles on all fronts to defend everything you will end up defeated and defending nothing !" Traitor May should take that advice and also reflect on the latest news that the police have lost control of the nation`s streets - could that be because May sacked 20,000 police officers to save money when she was Home Secretary ? politicians never answer for their tragic mistakes - they just go on to make more mistakes !

ROS1 - I am fully back in PMO with all my cash at the mo but only a fool sits and watches shares rise and fall without topping profits and getting out of a hopeless crash like carrilion et al - I have always said that I day trade when I see a good profit so do not accuse me of being a liar - I have all my life been noted for my honesty !

ROS1 - or as BOJO said "Fake the businessmen" Tomorrow is another day ! Doom to all market plunderers brokers et al

takeapunt - a good SP to buy in at - if PMO runs true to form we will see a 6% increase in SP tomorrow - broker games ! They know there is a ready market for PMO shares so can get away with plundering the SP - buying low and selling high tomorrow. I have been selling at early doors and buying back in the afternoon and I am ahead of the game at the mo - if the SP sticks for a while I will just stay in cash.
