Thanks nobber. Thats pretty much my take on the situation as well. So you think DSS holders will get a share transfer from the old DSS (DAN) shares to the new ACG ones. The things is, how much is 10% ? Many on the ATC board seem to think that there will be 12 billion shares around in the new ACG group. So 10% should be 1200 million. At the last count I found that there were 944 million Dan shares around. So a conversion of the 944m Dan shares into the 1200m ACG shrares makes a conversion of about 1.2712 new ACG shares for every Dan share. Gawd knows if I've got this right but it could mean a share increase for DSS holders. If it goes down this route then I for one will be very happy. If any have an alternate view then please post as I am only speculating at the moment. ATB.

Each time we've had these Brexit cliffhangers I've sold before the vote, and each time I needn't have bothered. Glenda's
SP wasn't affected at all, and I don't think it will be this time. Its an international company with more exposure to what happens in China than little old Bilghty.

Capital Drilling to report this Thursday 14th March. Any implications for us?

Gold just broke the 1300 mark. Looking good for a rise in SP moving forwards.

I think we're all confused. I spoke to HL and got the same response, ie DSS delisted and theres no company information available. They of course told me that they would inform me should DSS list again in the future. Totally useless in this situation. I find it utterly unbelievable that we haven't been informed about the reverse takeover and the supposed 10% of market value coming to DSS. As shareholders we have a right to know whats going on and how it effects us. My worst fear is that no info may mean no return !

Craig. Looks like Gold and CEY is coming back.

FS16. I'm not sure we can do anything. DSS holders have no decisions to make in this process as its all in the ATC holders hands. They have to accept the reverse takeover offer, and if 90% say yes then ATC and DSS will become Atlantic Carbon Group. What I'm in the dark about is the 10% value of the new group coming to us. Will it be a cash distribution too all remaining DSS holders or a share conversion to ACG shares ? Or will just go into Peter Shea's and other board members pockets ? Nothing as yet been disclosed to us shareholders and as such I think we're out of the decision making process. I would like to get an update and see just what we get out of it.

So what's happening with this big fall ? Profit take or another short opening ?

That was an incredible fall ! RNS out regarding T. Rowe Price who look like they've increased their holding overall. At first I thought it was a short opening but todays volume looks pretty average at just over 3m. The cynical may say that MMs were dropping the price to let the big boys in ! Does anyone have a different take on the RNS?

Fallen over 4% by 4pm. Any ideas why this is happening?

Agreed Billy. I reckon it'll kick off later this week. Non-Farm payrolls tent to affect the markets big time. Freaky Friday?

Theres a slew of data coming out this week internationally. Balance of Trade and crude oil inventories out of the US tomorrow. Thursday there's jobless claims in the US, and Friday theres Non-Farm payrolls. Markets tend to react to the numbers quite sharply if the numbers don't come in as expected, so I'm guessing the flat performance of GLEN this week is indicative the market holding off till this data comes in. I'm looking at volumes in my list of shares and they're all pretty low today. Lull before the storm ?

Also done. 426 signed now. Long way to go. We need 100000 to get it debated in Parliament and theres a 6 month time frame to achieve this. Lets hope.

Once gold goes over 1300 this should start to move up. But I fear its a long wait as there's no news out of CEY for a while now.

Billy. Holy craparamma indeed, its the worst move I've made in a long while. POG please come back !

Craig if CEY does the dirty down to 80 then it might be time to top up. Its way over soled at the moment. Crazy thing is that gold was mooted to break 1350 as well !

Billy I bought CEY at at 134 the day before the report. Then put in at 122 on the day itself but caught a falling knife as its ended up in this sorry mess. I'd watched it for 3 weeks and figured with POG at near 1350 it was ok for a punt. Now Ive got to trade my way out of it when gold recovers. Never thought it would go this low, but that's shares for ya !

Its very quiet on this board. The ATC offer closed last Thursday and the results should be coming out soon I hope. Remember 10% of their market value will come to DSS. Whether its a distribution of shares in the new group or cash, I don't know. May even go into the pockets of the directors! Maybe they'll use that to resist DAN ? Just don't know. If anyone has any info then please post. ATB.

Looks like the only thing to help us is POG returning. It was as low as 1282 today after being in the 1330s last. week. It seems that with positive noises from the US-China talks that markets are risk on again. Gold takes a slump and equities rise. Except for us I fear.

Sadly I got into CEY the day before the report and boy am I feeling the pain ! A disaster and it's completely messed up any strategy I had going forward. The only help will be from the POG returning. You live and learn )

Oh and I don't think shorters will monkey with this while the rise is on. They will most probably wait for report day and make any move then if the numbers don't impress.
