The forward makes amazing reading - particularly like the prospects for JMS & RSL. Re JMS: How big is "very large" I wonder?? Shareholders will note that to be a force in this sector it is necessary to be or to become very large, and we expect both to see the value of the Company's shareholding in Jupiter increase greatly in value.

937huff26  Verona Pharma (VRP) 17:55:10 24/11/2009

Too damn right, there is much reward for patience here in my opinion and even if short term PIs go somewhere else this will not come off their watch list and a little RNS in 7 weeks or so and off we go, keep with it all

Lunartik  Upstream (UPS) 17:50:49 24/11/2009

UPS ACHL 45p Reason - due to list and start trading on HK Stock Exchange on 26th November. Been edging up for quite a while and the HK listing may lead to a price spike if there are insufficient shares in HK to meet demand from investors.

Mattjos  Prosperity Minerals (PMHL) 17:49:27 24/11/2009

Yes, Cel, your comment on the patterns previously here ... it will be very interesting to see if tha last downward leg of this phase gets repeated now .. doesn't seem to be enough volume to move it back so it could very well get moved down again i imagine ... another buying opportunity may present itself soon

boadicea  Invista Euro. (IERE) 17:45:19 24/11/2009

The risk rating given to the company will be indicated to a large extent by the value given to the preference shares. The return to redemption will discount the risk of default. They will also attract a different class of holder than normally frequents bb's, so it will be very interesting to see how they behave.

donk4  Btg (BGC) 17:45:15 24/11/2009

betman - my opinion in short is that the market was disappointed with there being no partner for Varisolve and the fact that BTG will have to pay out $70 million to get this to the point of approval and as with any such medical product there is no guarantee of FDA approval. Others who regularly post here may give a different opinion.

Celeritas  West China (WCC) 17:26:54 24/11/2009

Look the two of you are good posters on this thread, just agree to disagree and move on. 31,000 traded at full price, I do think the funds a lapping up retail sales. Why sell now, just have some patience at least until the IPO.

jamesgkenny  Galliford Try (GFRD) 17:24:01 24/11/2009

The advisors who put this ridiculous shorting opportunity together need to be called to account. This is what the FSA should be looking at. Peel Hunt Hoare Govett Rothschild fees etc should be performance related...in which case they deserve nothing. Jail is too kind. Thieving scum. ... GF, its time to stand up and be counted.

mjcferguson  Ashtead (AHT) 17:18:55 24/11/2009

+Surely the extended finance availability at least means that a rights issue is not on the cards,and it does demonstrate that the banks are willing to back the Company.Fingers crossed for the dividend next week. Speedys figures are due out in the morning,dont expect them to be very pretty.

MRPHIL  Northern Foods (NFDS) 17:08:54 24/11/2009

Modest gains from LLOY, JNY & KDD helped reduce my fall to only -0.1% today. Glad I topped up on JNY yesterday. Aleman, must be interesting living on that bedrock, the earth certainly seems to move for you! MrP

Gary1966  Tribal (TRB) 17:08:20 24/11/2009

Topped up again with another 4K shares at 65p. Hope I am not catching a falling knife. Need to have a look at the RNS to try and decide if it is a good deal. If market knew in advance then I would suggest it doesn't think so.

unglove  Highland Gold Mining (HGM) 17:07:49 24/11/2009

A bit quiet on this thread today. Was looking good until the DoW decided to do an impression of a yo-yo but there should be a lot more mileage in HGM before Xmas. Remember that they are looking to buy with all their cash before the end of the year.

Fatboy9  Iqe (IQE) 17:07:33 24/11/2009

H - it's just a hunch and nothing more. I read somewhere a couple of weeks ago that a fund manager from GLG, who I believe ran their european fund had left the company almost a year ago and had started to work for another fund, and had subsequently underperformed his old fund since joining. Add to that, GLG disposed of some IQE not to long ago.

freedosh  Gold Oil (GOO) 17:03:00 24/11/2009

It's all becoming clear now. BD is living in my house and giving unlicensed investment advice Off to the Vet - it's either that 10 days with JJ - the choice is yours. freedosh - will be sailing out of Canuoan tomorrow evening heading to the active underwater volcano just north of Grenada
