2nd crane beimg added to Keen Chance container terminal which will double turnover and improve competitive position. (arkoholdings.com)

Don't know what the problem is, but all are down at present. General perception that uranium stocks are not "ethical etc". Discoveries of large deposits doesn't help the overall picture. Despite the adverse, still a good long-term investment.

Hi GedW. What do you think is going on with this stock? Is there any future in it? There hasn't been any progress in the last 3 months that I know of, and no info released by the co.

ED Vazquez resigned. Strong buys this morning on Evolution Securities announcement.

Hi Chan. Things are fine here, just diverted by the NRK crisis. I would love to visit the QEII Hall for the exhibition but unfortunately am based in Nottingham which makes it a bit too time consuming. Hope you are able to make it and perhaps get some info. Will look out for any comments. All the best.

Hi Chan, how's things? Any inside on the will story? It's dragging on too long.

Latest statement :LONDON (Thomson Financial) - Arko Holdings PLC said it is approaching the second half with caution, despite higher pretax profit in the first half, due to competition in the terminal operation market and a disappointing performance from its power plant. The shipping and power generation company's pretax profit jumped to 786,000 usd from 289,000 usd in the year-ago first half, as revenues increased 28.3 pct to 6.08 mln usd, primarily driven by the Keen Chance Terminal. No electricity has been generated at the power plant since April as the operator has run out of funds and the income generated from the plant has ceased for the moment, Arko added.

Dream on.

Good rise in sp today. Zinc price also good. Any news anyone?

Hi Chan, Thanks for your thoughts. Yes, I'm also in for the long term and can see the effects of looking for quick profits which is mostly the main topic of postings over recent weeks. Looking to steady growth over the future months. Good investing.

I'm thinking the same thing. The court case is going to drag on a long time before resolution but I also think there is something else. Is Chan there for any ideas?

Buyers coming in at 89p

Falling fast . 89p.

Yes it's disappointing at the moment. Suppose it could be the summer season. The shine has certainly worn off.

What's happened to RCG lately? Can't seem to get beyond 102/3p before being hit by sells. Any ideas anyone? Is it just the inevitable consequence of growing popularity?

Arko Holdings reduced FY loss as sales rose 14.8%. Good prospects for future growth especially at Guangzhou Keen Chance Terminal Ltd. following heavy increases in shipping movements in S.China region.

Hi Chan, Know the area quite well. I was telecoms/shipping previously and berthed Huangpu on several occasions. Good memories, good food, bad lightning flashes on the way back home - one thick flash missed me by inches! Attended the old Canton Trade Fair before the city was renamed in Mao's time. Great city. Did the train journey to Hong Kong and had to carry bags across the border, through the PLA guards, to catch the NT train to Kowloon. Great days. Still have my Red Book. Love to go back again. Was referring to the hclplc link you quoted?

Yes I'm still with RCG for the long term. Sounds like you had a good trip. Thought you were missing as no posts for a while. Were you in the south of China? The link you've given doesn't seem right, can you check it? I'm not too convinced about all the footprint arguments etc and suspect we are being conned to a certain degree although the severe pollution issues have obviously to be tackled. Hope to hear from you again.

Hi Chan, Where did you get to, how was the feel?

Anyone having problems getting valuations of this stock since merger ie were originally Urasia holders? My broker currently cannot give a valuation although quoted about C$16.50 on XTR. Also my last quotation was in Euros?
