A very good RNS imo. A new investor and funds secured. Maybe the start of the recovery?

time to start topping up again as i expect these to start rising. interesting that my buys are showing above as sells though. Hopefully good news on trading soon

and going up again today

Theatre audiences remain strong, with Dewynters continuing to support many major West End productions. Andrey Arshavin's transfer to Arsenal and Harry Redknapp's move to Tottenham Hotspur negotiated by First Artist Sport. Jon Smith, Chief Executive of First Artist, commented: This has been a challenging start to the financial year, and with the country now firmly in recession we remain in uncertain times. We have focused closely on the integration of SpotCo, whose performance has exceeded expectations, and have continued our drive for greater efficiencies and cost controls, taking decisive action where necessary.

haven't seen any news on these, but suspect the rise may be due to an extrapolation of performance from the earn out rights they have paid for this year to dewynter

your not the only one Buller. I am in at .50 so still a way to go before I break even, ut I am confident in these for the long term which is why they are in my bottom drawer. nice to see them recovering at last. just wish i had bought more at.15

glad I decided to hold for the long term. Good results and next years should be ven better. Hopefully the SP will now start to recover to a reasonable level

so does anyone have any iformation as to what is happening here. Since suspending there shares after the takeover bid, it has been very quiet. When will the shares resume?

but why were the shares suspended in the first place, and when will trading resume. This silence is disappointing

shares susoended and Dewynters not to be sold. Can only be good when trading resumes http://www.londonstockexchange.com/LSECWS/IFSPages/MarketNewsPopup.aspx?id=741233&source=NEWS

FAN making a takeover. what are the implications of this? http://www.londonstockexchange.com/LSECWS/IFSPages/MarketNewsPopup.aspx?id=1925497&source=RNS

wish I knew. I was just surprised and pleased to be able to buy at 1.88 yesterday, so am already ahead

and now back to where it started. I love the early trading SP fluctuations lol, no rhyme or reason to them. Still I EXPECT IT WILL RISE eventually

and amn't I glad I did as the price is now showing 2.5. Must say thgough, that spread of 2 to 3 is a killer. what is going on there?

some of the 1.88 transactions were buys. I know because one of them is mine

these may be a godd buy, but the share price has been stagnant for ages. needs a rocket up its ar*e to get the sp moving towards its proper value lol. i think people are frustrated and are bailing out, hence the large number of sells over the last few weeks

the share price is a joke on a number of shares at the moment, BRR, BNLN, BLNX, NNG, ULT all spring to mind. i know we are deep in a financial crisis, but what possible reason could MM's have for holding prices back? surely it would help not just the company but the economy as a whole if they allowed shares to fiind their own levels that at least bear some resemblance to the news they are releasing.

good news, goos SP rise, buys, and this still finishes back where it started. i am seeing this in a number of shares. Are Mm's taken the p**s by not allowing shares to find their own level?

http://www.londonstockexchange.com/LSECWS/IFSPages/MarketNewsPopup.aspx?id=1868798&source=RNS should be good for the SP

Ok I will give this one a punt. In at .79 so lets see where they go
