Eish - TY for the continued info - all good stuff - as a keen historian I like to see the big picture - viewing HOC performance over recent weeks gives a very small change in SP compared to - AAL - GLEN _ BHP Billiton - FXPO - KAZ - SOU - SOLG which have all dropped from 5% to 13% in SP. Bottom is CTAG with a 50% loss and PMO with a 23% loss. I leave out the other major crashes for brevity. IMO HOC is the SAFEST place to park funds pending good news in March.
On the other hand, if you day traded KAZ yesterday and bought at the lowest point of minus 11% and sold just before COB at minus 4% you would have cleared a 7% profit !!!! Hindsight is a great thing ! I did make some good profits on Ncc after the drop but nothing on COB (but no loss either). Wild times in the SM - the major drop in big metal companies SPs yesterday was yet again China sabre-rattling and we can do nothing about that. Although HOC SP dropped back from a high - by COB we were barely in the red - unlike other major miners !
ref closing prices - different companies list different prices depending on their own computer systems - the majority verdict on the HOC close was 271.1p - hopefully next week we will get some good news from the Monday PMO conference (fingers crossed)
On a lighter note - "Lord Kanardly - Thinkstrate was preparing for bed and he said to his manservant "Waddle prepare my bath" Waddle prepared the bath and Milord said "Waddle remove my Bath robe" Waddle removed the bath robe - Milord settled deep into his bath and broke wind - Waddle left and returned with a hot water bottle "What is that said Milord " Waddle replied " It is what you asked for Milord - as you settled into the bath I distinctly heard you say "Whataboutawaterbottlewaddle" LOL
