I'm still Holding for the ride, after more than 30yrs....could get a little bumpy?

Beware the MM-pigs; more than 4000 Auto-Trades today - one trade of 34,799,000 shares swop @ 11.43am before noon today @ below Bid-price? But NOT reported here until after 5pm, odd? - Along with other millions traded after 4.30pm?

Perhaps I've been a little hard on O'Shakey..... seems that lad has little control of SP ATM?

Pathetic - less than 1% on SP= £1.72...O'Shakey just another I.A.M.Connt

Tep1 muses " @thanglan - I am not sure of your reasons for investing here ..."....?...could not have put it better. Well, I got my 1st tranche of Brit-Gas shares off Mrs M. T...seems half a life time ago...by God, it almost is...and I've played(buy/sell) them ever since. My selfish reasons for being here are to make money....loads-a, loads-a, loads-a money...as Harry Enfield might say. Is their any other reason? I keep asking - POSTERS - why not use the Opinion Box?

Quoted

“German humour is no laughing matter.”

Mark Twain

Supersport says - "To be fair I'm just a newbie viewing this particular share. "...Mmmm? Oh, yehhh?

Who on this board will be 1st to guess his old ID?

Bankboy, says- "Stop blaming hedge funds - they are trying to create Market Maker's Price. "

But we need someone to Blame & I find the MM-pigs are the BULL on the Dart-Board-of-Blame. As you point out the MM-rats are "creating" the SP daily/hourly. And obviously, to THEIR Long-Term gain. We, the small punters, LTH(long-time-holders) are merely flotsam drifting on a Rough-Ruff-sea-of-shares....Who can I blame?. Less than 6months ago, they have allowed(forced?) the SP down from a magnificent £1.72, with delusions (mine) of £2 in the offing, to a sad £1.29 yesterday.

Certainly I'm happy to blame the MM-pigs, as we see it in their waves of Auto-Trades...many thousands each day.

After 40yrs I have failed, on many occasions, to JUMP-OFF @ a high, or JUMP-IN @ the Lowest SP.

I have started to confide with the Grand-Kids, well, it is their inheretance I'm gambling with. 2 have advised - get out of CNA @ 160p; 2 have advised stick it out to £2; another says stick with BP, GSK, HE1, HNL....WTF???

Common-sense?... Often obvious through hindsight

Ripley94, ref. Barnes-IBMer-Billionaires? Hold on to CNA, GSK & HLN?

More than 9000 Auto-Trades today with the MM-rats trying to pin the SP down - for their coming big buys spree - then their big profits take later. Check their(MM-pigs) magic argorithim-nos , they're about, 348, 377, 487, 887 or 906 regularly as clock-work.

Might be a good idea to follow them?

If (expecting?) SP around £2 by July 1st would be nice

Bought here in 2000 when originally start-up Rensburg VCT, 100,00 shares cost £100,000 with an SP of £1

Shenanigans have left me with 15,895 shares in UAV (?) with NAV around £16K (loss £84K)

Unless there's a miracle suggest you avoid this pig - dividends have NOT catered for No of Shares lost or the drop in reality of SP.

God save us from the VCT-cesspit of high management fees and low dividends, too many Cowboys. Maven lot not much better.

NetZero - I like that, "a rabble of Politicians";

it goes well with the collective of "a murder of crows(chancellors)"

Why would O'Shakey still be buying back more than 1/2 million shares today @ 148p,

if he thought the SP was going to drop? He's dumb but not that dumb surely?

Expect SP to be above £1.60 by end of Jan.

Please will somebody buy this dog & sack this useless Board

No, but hope

Today BRB says with such clarity, such precision, such optimism on less than 300 trades so far; but still has no opinion on whether to I should sell, hold or buy....wish I could be so certain.

Looks like Pinky & Perky attempting to tie up 10% of all shares in treasury - Then what?

Dubs - "keep or sell"?..always a choice. I'm keeping & hoping for SP >= £1.80 before Christmas.

Lot depends on Dumb & Dumber's, O'shakey & Scott, decision on Shares in treasury.

Friday-last - more than 5000 Auto-Ex-Trades as MM-pigs took early profits, suppressing the SP.

Today more than 3000 Auto-Exs by MM-pigs buying back cheaper shares, as is possible over next few days.

Hopefully, then the SP will rise & more after next Board declaration on 11th Nov...they can't, or are unlikely to stay dumb much longer...they'll need to tells about their greatly un-desrved salaries and fantastic undeserved bonuses.

Hence I'm holding....for awhile....Posters, please fill the Option box.

Gambling on the 2 board-clowns to be forced into action to help the SP rise.

And greed - Is that Clown, Dunce Morrison still running this SP into the ground?

£2 - ? not before New Year...Depends what Dumb & Dumber do with those shares in chancellery?

The Board has no common-sense, no useful strategy, no plans worth a cent, no ideas of any value. The SP has dropped more than 50% in less than 5-years,.Dividends an insult; salaries & bonuses of this Board undeserved. Only hanging on here in hope somebody takes BT.Asses over. Expect SP to be below £1 before Christmas. Sad, but time to order the RIP headstone.

"Doing something right?"...recent Dividends zero or crawling to less than 1%...check this against the Board's salary & bonuses
