... that the MMs are trying to draw the sells out? Or is no-one watching this share at all now? :-(

Still nice though - hope I still qualify after only buying in today

ah so basically its old news and already largely reflected in the SP - should have done my research - hey ho - thanks again

will have a squint - many thanks

No trading, no RNS, ask sshoots from 1p to 5p - what on earth is going on? MMs doing a spot of insider trading? lol

As a relative newbie, and new today to CNE, could anyone more experienced tell me what the line about returning money to shareholders in February 2012 is likely to actually mean "Proposed return of $3.5 billion to shareholders February 2012" i.e. it sounds like something of the order of $2.5US per share (or approx 156p) which sounds too good to be true, and what's more I'd expect the SP to surge much higher than it has (although admittedly its been impressive) on such a figure. Am I being ludicrously naive here? I've bought in this morning but missed the rush so am currently on a small loss and am wondering if I've made a mistake.

Anyone with any insight on this share, its recent behaviour, and future prospects? Quite an exodus so far today - wondering if I've missed some news, as it was starting to recover a bit tail end of last week.

anyone know an email address for them? The RNS said another announcement would follow shortly - that was about 5 weeks ago now. Seems to me a gentle prod would be in order Thank goodness it didn't say "longly"!

what the hell happened here last thing today?

OsakiSushi, Many thanks for the reply and huge apologies for the protracted delay in acknowledging it. Problem is I keep forgetting to check the Premium Chat as its usually so quiet on here. I think there are typically 2 pours a month so the early Dec RNS was referring to Novembers pours in total being a record month, but also referred to a pour on 6th December without clearly differentiating. Clearly the Jan pour is then a single pour presumably with another to follow later this month. That's my take on it anyway but happy to be corrected if anyone knows better. I think I need to get into the charting as it sounds a very useful tool and you seem to be pretty much on the mark. I was expecting a more prolonged climb after the last RNS (3 days as per the preceeding 2 pour RNSs) before a gradual decline, and am concerned that the market's behaviour to this shares RNSs has now changed. Am hoping the next RNS will be good and the market's response will be strong and favourable and longer lasting but will have to wait to see. I think the share's sp has held up pretty well so far since the peak, its just that the peak came far too quickly and far too low. Not sure what to really expect now but am over-exposed so am crossing everything!

The 7th pour was in November and was announced as the largest pour to date at that time at 693 ounces. That RNS was a confusing one as it also discussed a more recent pour on 6th December without making a clear distinction between the two. The 9th pour (January) is smaller but is announced as the largest "SINGLE" pour. Can anyone clarify the distinctions? I've asked this on the regular share chat as well but I'm not sure who reads which.

It would be nice if the Bid went up in line with the Ask and the SP!

Has this one slipped passed everyone's radar this morning?

It would appear that the MMs have simply hiked the price up 80 points before opening effectively stifling all trading in this share. A lot of frustrated limit orders this morning I would imagine.

Amazed I'm on my own in here on this one. Fantastic small spread%, 2 great RNS's yesterday, nicely upward SP (touch wood). Where are you all?

Does anyone know what makes this share surge up and fall back the way it has done lately? I can't find any news on it to explain it. Is it just dark forces manipulating the SP to drag in naive and unsuspecting punters and relieve them of some cash or is there actually something less sinister behind it? Anyone? I'm still very new at this and have already been stung a few times, although never too badly so far thankfully - its a painful learning curve!

what's driven the price up? Think I may have missed the boat again?

150% spread is too rich for my blood (and then some!) It could double and still be a big loss maker. Am I missing something? I am very new at this so please correct me if I've got the wrong end of the stick
