Get a life Bacchusll, you were doing the same berating people on the THG forum. People only have to look at your posting history to get the measure for themselves.
Of course I was passionate, but people should be old enough to formulate their own views. I got in at 15p and did well, made an easy 50k profit quite quickly, but stupidly persuaded myself after a week or two to put the money back in, obviously much higher, and so even I made a bit of a loss in the end, but at least I was honest, I posted my trades, said if I was selling, and started to sound out when I can see red flags appearing, just wasn't quite as quick as Gaz, who was right from the start, respect to Gaz for that, but none of us knew which way it would go, and I've often said its a 50/50 bet.
On the shares front, if the company delists, then it doesn't matter what JD, IK or Salazar hold, as their shares will be incorporated in to the private company, so they've lost nothing, but they simply wait and see if the likes of JD or JH or both combined, want to buy out their shares at some point no doubt, and if JD turns it around as a private company, then they will no doubt do quite well out of it with divis etc.
Be wary of anyone offering to purchase your shares, Aberdeenman did it on cloudtag, said he'd take them for just 1p, and then no doubt sold them at a nice profit to the backstabbing CEO!
I honestly thought that JD would not do this for a second time to shareholders, but after two weeks passed following the extension, it began to look likely that he just wasn't going to get the finance, or did he even really seek any financial backing, you do have to ask yourself how much of this may have been contrived now, imo?
It will be interesting to see if HL do their usual trick first thing, and block sellers for 20-30 mins, the shorters will be given first dibs, as always, to march the sp down no doubt. Swing trading would be courageous imo. GL everyone.
