To save you asking. I was hoping for news of the Optiscope. If something positive comes on this front then there should be a major rise in the sp. I really do suggest that everyone should look at HCEG and read the substp footprints - skip mine. There you will begin to see why it is that I am so 'high' on this company, as it seems is substp.

The premium is much to do with the longevity of the warrants. In this case we are looking to June 2008. Clearly this is a fast reviving situation, thus people who think that there is plenty of upside will get more bang for their buck by buying the warrants. If the underlying ordinary stock goes to £1.00, say, then the premium of one and a half pence to tuppence is marginal when you have bought the option to subscribe to buckets of shares as to far less outlay than if you had bought the underlying ordinaries. My broker who also bought some stock, after me, bought the fully paid, on being asked about it he told me that he wanted the grown up version. The amusing thing is that % wise they have not performed as well as the warrants, so much for brokers! k7pws in my view is right not to sell, there is it seems much, much more to come. Today's news was for me a surprise, I was expecting something else altogether, this to do with another product. If you like this shsre I still think that the way in is through the warrants, the downside is that they are hard to get hold of.I have been going on about this way in forever, both here and on the HCEG site, at last a few people are beginning to listen, I just wish for everyone's sake they had listened when they were 0.21 of one penny in December.

BINGO!

BINGO!

Someone gave 69.75p for stock yesterday. Tomorrow will be interesting.

Rumour has it that the presention - see underneath - was excellent. Perhaps this explains the jump in the share price.

Thanx for the linx and information.

The warrants are up nearly 15% at the time of writing this yet the ordinaries are down a little. There is just no way that Aviva - with all their research facilities, less your goodself of course(!) - is going to take a near 10% stake unless they were pretty sure of serious action. Looking back through all the footprints it is patent that this company has bottomed and now is reviving at a pace that is probably more rapid than the average market analyst is aware of or perhaps even able to understand.

After close to 100 years of existence ATST is taking on a heavy hitting investment manager. Is this new move a signal of a totally changed policy?

Possibly the reason that there is as yet no reported institutional buying of SAR is that they don't like shares that are priced less than tuppence with a large spread, perhaps this is why there is now talk of a share consolidation. Another reason is possibly because it seems to be hard to pick up a line of stock. A certain Mr Licht recently had to go to the company and get them to issue new shares for his £400,000,investment, hardly a great amount of money in institutional terms. If they do consolidate I reckon that in order to make the shares more marketable they will have to issue even more. But the question remains, will they deliver?

You are right about SAR in as much as they now need to deliver, you seem to think that they cannot do this I think that they can, the jury is out and we will see in a few months which of us is right. As to BLLM, it does seem like a somewhat dull situation.

Bllim-ey! Are things THAT bad?

You find out all this woderful news and post it for us, then what happens is that the share price drops another 10%, it is quite mad!

Is there a tap? Someone just dumped 100/-

There is a big mining conference this week in S.A. and it seems that Ridge is doing a presentation, this may explain the today's buying and the fact that someone has just given 60.5p.

True, very true oh King!

Please could you tell me how much a week you get for 5 children.

Thank you for your reply. The best bit of news at the moment is the website. No one updates a site when a company is going down the tubes. I agree that Optiscope must be worth a lot of money, what I do not understand is why they would want to sll it as has been suggested. Looking at the board there are some heavy hitters there, if these guys have now really got the bit between their teeth then I think we have upside. As to DYOR, I always do, however with as many holdings as I have and in many countries with political situations to contend with as well, inevitably there are things that get missed, also it is impossible to know everything. Accordingly, your very specialised scrutiny and any overall 'take' contributes to the mix when arriving at one's own view and determining the outlook for this reviving situation. Many thanks.

Please will you be kind and give the source of your very interesting figures. Thanks.
