Currently recovering from a 'late one' last night I have little energy for typing but... Charts etc aside, the 'brass tacks' of SLV are very sound. My personal thoughts are that now the dust has settled post RUUKI we will see some value returning fairly soon. I will top up my holding and the CFD I opened on Thursday morning will stay open. It's a buy from me also. regards Dave

As I mentioned to a few tonight (you know some of them) this is a 'dust settling' period post termination of merger. Given time SLV will provide some excellent value from the current price, they will dust down and get back to work. Value will be delivered for those who have time and patience. regards Dave

I opened a CFD long this morning at the open but truth be known I didn't expect such a rise. I was actually speculating that the bottom had been achieved. There is of course a possibility of a levelling out or even a dip tomorrow but if the buying continues the momentum may do the same. I am yet to add to my holdings share wise but will certainly study the trades tomorrow. I imagine that most short positions are now closed but the real possibility of profit taking/recycling on the 'tick up' remains. Each new level will add to the consolidation of the share and over the coming weeks and months SLV will start relecting their true value. regards Dave

I will listen to any man or woman who presents such a structured viewpoint but ignore empty ramps for they are by definition empty. My olive branch is therefore extended to any wishing to take it to allow healthy debate and exchange of views for it is my belief that this is how LSE should operate, as a benefit to those who take the time and effort to offer an opinion that is valid and of benefit to others. regards Dave

My personal stance regarding 'shorting' is this; We are all well aware of the potential of owning a share that is on the up, its obvious! Shorting whether it be or CFDs or Spread Betting (a slightly different tool) are just products that enable investors to play both sides of the coin and capitalise on the decline of shares or indices. Some may take the moral high ground but I see these products as an opportunity to make money from the adverse direction in addition to the standard 'uptick'. Regarding the recent bout of 'spats' between various personalities, it has become tiresome. Investing is a continual learning curve for all involved. To learn from each other is a fantastic opportunity. I appreciate that opinions may differ but posting of reasonable structured arguments for AND against shares should support the notion of personal expression and opinion. The main problem (in my opinion) is that too many empty posts give way to conflict. If any given poster states their viewpoint and supports it with facts and/or projections then this is a firm platform for healthy debate, as we already know AIM stocks in particular can yield many twists and turns on route that will affect the sp in both directions. I would rather draw a line under this messy affair and return to structured debate backed by facts and reasonable projections........

Re your post 15:32 Happy to play along with the Youtube clip, however my Mum's dead.

Check back in 4 weeks by all means but I would prefer a return visit in the new year as SLV is a slightly longer term investment from my perspective. In addition to the mounds of reading I have completed on SLV the link below is an addition. (Thanks to Pete!) http://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/9362/sylvania-resources-implementing-a-sensible-business-model-to-become-a-low-cost-platinum-and-ferrochrome-player-9362.html regards Dave

Clearly Childsplay has only seen the Annual report whilst breezing through the boards read the content and posted solely on that basis. This is my theory and the reason behind is thus; had he been fully aware of the history and potential future of SLV his comment would have not been made. I do not wish to enter into squabbles but simply appreciate depth (or lack of it) when comments are made. regards Dave

I will take your last comment as an 'anti tip'. I will of course throw it in the bin, top up my holding and polish my CFD long! Keep SLV bookmarked to return to later (maybe even in a different guise post RUUKKI) regards Dave Reasonably well versed on SLV :-)

Ruukki's takeover is only dependant on the closing of the SXM/GAU offers and not the actual acquisition. regards Dave

For those not quite up to speed SLV's website is very detailed http://www.sylvaniaresources.com. Happy reading! :-) regards Dave

Bargain conditions apply, hurry while stocks last!! I suspect this advice will fall on stoney groung though for the masses. Best we come back in a year and gloat!! :-) regards Dave

SLV is currently one of the biggest no brainer investment opportunities available at the moment, compounded by the recent dip in price. It's quite simple, buy some and you will make money! Not very often one can make a statement like the above and feel absolute conviction to this degree. regards Dave

Tom, go back to bed it's not quite time yet! :-) regards Dave

Giro was indeed cashed mate although I did teeter on an AST top up but decided on SLV. regards Dave

Morning all, very quick turnaround on the recent SLV deals, someone wants it all tidied up pretty damn quick! Tom48, all aboard, bus pass or not! :-) regards Dave

LMAO, Nice one! But I have found that his predictions are generally correct! regards Hilda Colon

MikeyT21 has got SLV on his 'something may or may not happen' list, on that basis I may just throw my Giro in as a top up! regards Old Red Eyes

Scary stuff mate, I would go for the hospital bed and then you can sit and watch your SLV holdings appreciate in value!! :-) regards Dave

No ramping required mate, the facts speak for themselves! I have to carefully consider my top up but it's a timing issue not a 'should I add to my investment' issue. I don't think your 68p will be breached for long though :-) Tom - I thought the Bus Pass comment was bang on, you are missing a trick there mate. Money to be made LMAO!! regards Dave
