lol, perhaps so.

sean, it's just a spoof account, someone's odd idea of a joke, tho' there's never really a punch line. atb.

lloy's an odd one, isn't it? -- so much politics! i have a small amount, & trade it a little, keep thinking maybe i should buy inbigger at some point, but kinda worry there is more fall to 50s yet to come from plevin etc., so holding off still. gl.

i'm not that active with the small stocks at the moment, as not that optimistic about various global issues, ya-da-ya-da, blah-blah. (always a gloomy, cowardly bugger me, eh.) i have been accumulating some gsk, voda, jlg, rebuying into wpct, picking up some bae, aviva, eckoh, some dhwa, & using utw for both investing and & trading. that last one, utw, feels both risky and fun, several houses seem to let bots loose on it quite regularly so sp slaps around something rotten sometimes. but a decent cash wodge still good idea imo. you?

blimey, i'm getting ahead of myself. meant 2016, not 2017. (mind you, SFO wheels can turn pretty slowly.)

... one of the points of interest for me in watching DAN during 2017 will be to see what conclusions the SFO may come to regarding DAN's role in QPP's rise... all good fun eh?

(.... you could of course try using the DAN bb to post something interesting & relevant that's actually about the company itself, & its prospects? 'tho i appreciate, hard to do, with so little info given.)

lol, clock,no i don't still hold such view on qpp! -- my views on qpp changed over time. & as the qpp story unfolded, so too did my views on RT. (tbh, i didn't know much about him when i first bought into qpp, but i learnt, & as i learnt, so i came to understand him as very untrustworthy & a serious liability to pi value.) so sure, i am indeed interested in RT because of what happened over at qpp. that led me to watch him & think about his activities (& dan's part in them). but nope, not resentful ... if you have spent enough time looking over my posting history, you would also see that i was not one of the qpp holders who chose to go down with the ship... i bought in and sold out on about three occasions as it was going up, and stopped out at the beginning of the crash. unlike many other holders, i did not buy back again, double-up, or anything similar. i stayed out, because i didn't know what was happening, and was unsure how to value the company while the short attack continued. turned out to be a pretty good decision! (i did buy back very recently for a short term trade or two around the time it converted to WTG etc, but no position now). hence, my own overall p&l on qpp was pretty good overall. so not resentful of RT, but yes, very very wary -- he is bad news. .... you are very entertaining. keep it up.

i see that i have finally won a share puppets 'bulletin board moron of the week' award for one of my posts on DAN bb. but strangely, TW & co don't seem to recognise that i might have been taking the pee with my post, and appear to believe that i was posting as a DAN holder! (um, nope.) "There are two winners from last week both from folks who have followed fraudster Rob Terry into Daniel Stewart (DAN) whose shares were booted off the AIM Casino on Friday. THE DOKTOR spots this pearl of wisdom from SpikeyJ from the LSE Asylum: there’s always an upside.the second major world pandemic may have exterminated about 40-50% of the English population in the 13th century, but on the plus side, it did substantially undermine the previous patterns of feudal control over the means of production, e.g. introducing significant new labour market mobility. on a 100-200 year view, the black death actually went quite well economically. so maybe it’s actually good news for DAN in the long run that it’s failed to publish its audited accounts, failed to finalise the placing that it kept saying was coming ‘shortly’, and is about to be delisted from AIM with no mechanism yet in place to allow shareholders to trade at decent prices? all this may yet attract multiple new clients to its glowing reputation Whatever." - See more at: http://www.*************.com/views/18239/bulletin-board-moron-of-the-week-results-and-contest-2-2016#sthash.wxdwvZFL.dpuf

sssh! best not to tempt fate.

woodford claims he wants witty to demerge glaxo into 4 separate entities, but he might be bought off with a few more special divis from segments being divested rather than the whole kit and caboodle taken apart. very unlikely witty will agree to break it up, so he can either wait it out or try to bargain.

no way, jose! just one of the ones i watch out of idle interest re what rob terry is up to.

careful now, some of the natives here can get pretty restless.

ben, agree with your 14:03.

meanwhile, it ticks along nicely, eh.

question is really, suppose your broker phones you up tomorrow, and says, "oops, i'm really really sorry, we've accidentally sold all your COP holding by mistake, computer glitch -- so we have a wodge of cash on your account at the moment; since it's our mistake, we will happily re-invest it for you in COP if you like, or we can just leave it as cash in your account for the time being, or we will invest it in any other share for you, and cover your dealing costs".... what would you choose at this point? - would you say to them, yes, out of all the shares / assets in the world that i know about, i most of all want that cash reinvested in COP, or might you want them to put the money somewhere else? i.e. forget the history, over and done with, is staying in COP the most efficient use of your limited resource at this point or not, given all the other possibilities available to you?

you are welcome to read my posting history, if you have spare time, which might give you some indications. (recently for example i bought some gsk, jlg & dwha.) but number of posts does not correlate very well with size or nature of investment. all rather off-topic for imtk, so i'll say no more on that. not trying to offer any recommendations for you or others.

yes.
