It'll come Razor, it'll come. Need to start knocking on 6p's door I reckon.
Till then......

30p by Christmas!!!!!

I again have to agree with DS, we don't know how this will play out and who would want what and how willing each institution is to sell their interests, re, us, Peel, Pension Fund, etc. it was obviously a complicated deal that got us to this point and will probably take a creative deal to ensure that all parties going forward are happy. Because we are all so much in the dark as to how this plays out, I don't think there's a lot we can rule out, all of this may be speculation on our part, but as DS mentions, Peel as major CRES shareholders are involved in land/property, the pension funds would I assume like to extract the value quickly of their holding in Harworth and we would like a reasonable as possible return on our investment; and no one except the miners or possibly Hargreave Services wants the mining operations

In laymans terms. if you owned 60% of a business,which for this instance lets call it a pie.then you would own the most so you will have more rights and more say on what happens to the pie. but if more bits are added and sold to other people,then you would no longer own 60% of the pie,and there for have less say in what happens to the pie.TCG are offering you the chance to buy some of the new pieces of pie at half price at 76p each before they go up for sale for £1.37 to new buyers.----the reason you should want to buy more of the pie could be, to have as much say as you had before, by holding as near to the equivilent of percentage as you did before.and because the half price offer is a way of compensating you for the loss in value which will occur initially for your existing pieces of pie,because there are more pieces on offer.i believe that the deferred shares are a way for tcg to keep their percentage of rights over the whole pie in order to carry on being in control,because with more slices added to the pie,their percentage changes too.this is one way of looking at it,i hope this helps and i hope its right.LOL

Looks like MOG got a bit of a blood nose on Friday looking at at BBs.

Hello Aegian,

The world is littered with the remnants of fantastic science which didnt quite work out. I was and never have doubts as to the credentials of the true ground breaking scientists involved in OXB. Although I never met Mrs Kingsman, I am lead to believe by a number people who did that she was an inspiration, may she rest in peace.

My point was somewhat tongue in cheek. With anything groundbreaking, there is an element of a 'Gamble' and by that I mean that although the science works, does it work to the level at which it becomes commercially viable. So whereas I started out with the hope that when Jonny kicked the ball in the general direction of the posts it would go in, the various small influences on the ball ( wind friction temperature ) as it travels through the air have guided it gently towards a more certain 3 points. I'm here for the 3pts and they are becoming more and more likely as time goes by. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Yes I received a rather large package in the post(results and placing info). I have shares in certificate form. It states about the capital refinancing plan, what I stated in my last message. Now I do not know whether this applies to the ordinary shares or what as it states about the warrants as well. If it is about the ordinary shares then I presume people will get one new ordinary share and 9 deferred shares which is not good.That is why I asked the question. If anybody can make head or tail of this then I would be most grateful of info

From a barrister apparently, but I wouldn't bet the house on it. )

I am turning bULL, I feel the dow will hot 16k next month and at the current rate of increase will hit 18k by Christmas.

My reasons? Fed cannot pull QE and that is it...Wink

Disclaimer:
This is only my opinion and usually when the shoeshine person starts to talk about buying shares while buffing your olive tanned snake skin boots, it might be a sign to sell, as a drop is/may/possibly/could be/might/historically (be) on the horizon.

I will give it a miss. Happily married

In the item I posted on 12.05.13 under this thread I said I would e-mail Jacob Brown, the author of the article (see link below) and see what reply, if any, I get from him.

In fact I did two things:

Firstly, I corrected his article as follows in the comments column ((see link below for the article and you will have to register to post or read comments and this is a simple process):
~~~

The article says: "The KERS will be hooked up to the rear axle, spinning up to 60,000 rpm to recapture electricity through braking and channel it back into the batteries. From there, the stored-up electricity can be brought back into an electric motor in the car’s flywheel, which is sandwiched between the engine and its transmission, giving it a boost of power without having to use much gas." - Unquote

The above is not quite correct as this particular KERS is a mechanical hybrid system and not an electric hybrid system and does not therefore use a battery to store the kinetic energy.You may wish to correct the article.

Here is the official press release from Volvo:

http://tinyurl.com/c2hy4ya

Thank you.
~~~

Second, I e-mailed a question to Jacob Brown and got this reply today:

QUESTION

Hi Jacob

I enjoyed reading your article entitled “Volvo Says New Kinetic Energy Recovery System to Save 25 Percent More Fuel Than an Engine of Similar Power” (dated 25 April 2013) but can you please clarify a point for me.

In the article you say:

“…expect it (KERS) to show up in the 2015 Volvo XC90 three-row crossover, followed by the S60 and every model in between, ..”

You say expect the KERS to show up first in the XC90 followed by the S60. Are you able to expand on why you think the technology is likely to appear first in the XC90, although Volvo has been using the S60 for evaluating the KERS?

REPLY

Hi XXXX,

Here's what we know:
-The Volvo S60 has been on the market for years now with the same basic technology under the sheetmetal.
-Volvo is creating a new architecture designed specifically for these lightweight, high-tech systems.
-The first new vehicle to receive the architecture will be the 2015 Volvo XC90. That has been confirmed.

Volvo surely wouldn't market all of its new technologies under the wrapper of last year's car, especially when a new vehicle is coming out that will allow the automaker to leverage its new technologies with a bigger "wow" factor. It wants to make a splash.

While the S60 is a fantastic vehicle, it's aging. Even a new nose can't hide that fact. With a swarm of new vehicles coming into its lineup in the next two years, a very good guess would be that the XC90, S80, and perhaps some of its other big cars that are nearing the end of their lives will get the KERS technology and turbocharged four-cylinder engine first. The S60 is just a test mule. Remember, the first Chevrolet Volts/Vauxhall Amperas tested were all under the bodywork of the Chevrolet Cruze.

I hope that helps clarify things.

In the November 2011 Interim Results Torotrak reported as follows:

"Also in September, the Volvo Car Corporation announced that it would be the first car company to test Torotrak’s equipped flywheel energy recovery system on the roads (“KERS”). Volvo is adopting a new vehicle “platform” which will be used as the basis for their entire product range. The so-called Scalable Platform Architecture (SPA) has been configured to accommodate the fitment of a flywheel hybrid system featuring a Flybrid Systems LLP flywheel and Torotrak’s variable drive technology" - Unquote

Given the above statement, Jacob Brown's guess that the Flybrid/Torotrak KERS has the potential to appear in Volvo's XC90, S80 models, and perhaps even some of its other big cars makes sense.

There are of course two pre-requisites here: One, the supply chain for the Flybrid/Torotrak KERS wil

Thanks 2bozmo,very kind of you.
Will find some questions nearer the time.

'The Dow Jones 30 had a strong showing on Friday as the market bullishness continued. The fact that we managed to break above the 15,300 level decisively of course is a very strong sign, and also the fact that we close of the very highs of the session doesn’t hurt much either. Looking at this, we think of this market will continue to go higher, and that a break of the highs from the Friday session should be considered a signal to start buying again. We also believe that pullbacks will find plenty of support as traders trying to take advantage of this nice uptrend.'

To add, i've been reading this bloke's predictions for the past week and he's been bullish all the way.

Over to you Jackozy.

Resounding vote of confidence there then... :-/

Your doing a fine job Aih; if anyone else wants to set up another little investment game, there welcome. But if it ain't broke don't fix it. :-0)

Watch out the Bantams are coming! What a season for ya'll , grats mate

This is much less a legal case and more legal extortion.
My fear is a total victory and then an appeal by the extortionists.
Very confident about us winning and unsure how British legal system deals with appeals.

Saratov - why don't you look for the links yourself.

None needed SirF all the best mate

Sorry Jackozy,

I don't how i missed your reply all those days ago, but yes, pretty useful and your wise words of caution very much appreciated.

Anyway, the Dow's done well in the past week and I didn't do much other than watch from the sidelines.

Is it on a bull run atm, and could it continue as we are still officially a month away from the summer?

Below are some snippets and links i've been reading: (Any thoughts)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zZAAfySE2g&feature=youtube_gdata

'The Dow Jones 30 had a strong showing during the session on Thursday as we completely recaptured the losses from the Wednesday session. We are currently pressing up against the 15,000 level, and we believe it is only a matter of time for we breakout to the upside. However, we believe this is mainly predicated upon the fact that the Federal Reserve will continue to keep very accommodative monetary policies, and the fact that this index is stuffed full of so many dividend paying stocks. Dividend paying stocks are without a doubt the replacement for the bond markets that money managers have been using over the last couple of years. With this in mind, we feel that this market will continue to go higher.'

Do you still feel that going long is more risky or is the trend going to continue short term -i am thinking of going long for a few days - depending on the daily pattern...

I have just been going over the details of this company. The share price hit 38p at the beginning of March. However that seems to have been simply the result of a big investor (Calodonia Investments) selling its holding, and a partial re-rating occuring. Since then there has been a steady decline to the present price. Although takings are down slightly, debt has been decreased, and banking facilities routinely renewed. The interim dividend was maintained. This seems to be the only publicly-listed insolvency practice. Once the longed-for recovery arrives its business will pick up (as others have noted below). Now may be the time to get in and reep future benefits. Ignoring the unrepresentative climb to 38, fair price at the moment should be c35p? A climb well above that in due course is a distinct possibility. The dividend due later in the year will make the wait more worthwhile than simply leaving your cash in the bank. This probably won't make you a fortune, but it should keep you in profit.

Excuse delay in responding up a ladder with a paintbrush most of today, all part of the joys of moving house I suppose. Well I reckon that we will see some major news prior to the merger e.g. Texas sale confirmation so I would say that we will be well above 3.5 by then, possibly even 4p

As we know the price at finish is usually half the spread. .17/.25 hence .21p todays trades............ Price Volume Value Bid Ask B/S
15:56:55 0.17p 1,000,000 £1,700 0.21p 0.21p Sell
14:13:46 0.17p 32,000 £54 0.21p 0.21p Sell
13:44:53 0.17p 22 £0 0.21p 0.21p Sell
12:31:11 0.17p 60,000 £102 0.21p 0.21p Sell
12:25:57 0.17p 193,036 £328 0.21p 0.21p Sell
10:37:53 0.17p 50,000 £85 0.21p 0.21p Sell

Well would you look at that all .17p Lol.
These might look like funny trades, but 2-3 years ago £54 32000 was 3.2million 10-15k

Old article but I have not seen this before

Where the rumour originated?

Which rumour?

The Chevron take over @ 800p?

The Chinese takeover at an even higher figure?

There are several more I am sure.

If the court case finishes expect a big move before the RNS.

As investors we will be last to know!

The rise last week was fake. This court case could go on for years.
Maybe enough time to build a power station!

Tomek said we didn’t have any coffee. And then the man just went.ha ha.! Sorry, have to go now, more workings, lectures .....LMFAO..!!

Alan: What, Todd? Seriously?

my target is over 100p over the next 18 months..the prof is chasing a block in Oman which could have an unrisked value of over 20 times the current market cap...

I can see the price moving up now. Seems to be recovering from recent falls. Should be back to 1250P fairly quickly. Also Tullow as been touted before as a takeover target. It as all been quiet on that from lately but with the price lower than for some time and the FTSE near all time highs, would not be suprised to see some interest in Tullow soon.

Political coalition calls Iraqi government to cut its relations with Turkey
Added by Ahmed Hussein on May 18, 2013.

Tags: Baghdad, Iran, Qatar, Syria, Turkey

Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) Secretary General of the Patriotic Sons of Iraq Coalition, Abbas al-Mohamedawi called the Iraqi government to cut its relations with Turkey, accusing the parliament Speaker, Osama al-Nijaifi of implementing Turkish and Qatari agendas.

Mohamedawi said in a statement received by IraqiNews.com on Saturday “Turkey is responsible for the entry of the PKK militants to Iraq,” noting “The PKK organization comprises Iranian, Turkish, and Syrian elements who are enrolled in the world terrorist organizations list.”

“This irresponsible behavior by Turkey comes within its provocative behaviors towards Iraq,” he added calling on the government of Iraq to cut all its political and economic ties with Turkey.”

On other hand, Mohamedawi renewed his call to “dismiss Nijaifi, accusing him of performing Turkish and Qatari agendas.”

The Speaker Nijaifi has conducted unannounced visit to Turkey which coincided with the transfer of the PKK elements to north of Iraq where politicians and observers considered this visit as clear violation to Iraq’s sovereignty.

Interesting report in the Irish times
Irishtimes.com
An board gais, who are responsible for the interconnector gas pipeline, have announced they are conducting a study to see if it's worth adjusting the interconnector pipeline so that it could export gas from Ireland. The cost to change the pipeline into both an export and import pipeline is estimated to cost €200 million.

If dunnquinn becomes a gas discovery then the size of such a discovery is such that the gas would need to be exported to the uk, so such an upgrade would vital.

Such an upgrade would have been vital if the kin sale head gas facilities were going to be used for gas storage for the uk. I suspect that the €200 million upgrade cost would have severly damaged the economics of gas storage, which may explain why petronas who purchased the kin sale field for gas storage has not proceeded to convert the field to gas storage. Just as well providence did not buy into the kin sale field as they once were looking to do.

Another good read

A single rns for an AIM can decimate the sp or cause it to rocket. The charts, of course, can't anticipate that so that's where they're of no use to an AIM investor. But nevertheless they still show the attitudes of investors between pieces of news. So they show investor trends in anticipation of news, or following news, or over long periods where there's a complete absence of news. Looking at the SLE chart, there are long periods of clear trends interspersed with occasional break-outs or dives. So a mix of tactics is best. In February 2012, for example, the MA20 crossed above the MA50 and 30 million shares were traded on that day. But there was no imminent news expected so the break-out wasn't sustained for long. Hopefully yesterday's break-out will this time be followed by news of game-changing results. The sp has finally recovered another penny, going from the 7s into the 8s. Only another 92 to go until it reaches my target...

I was more negative on this stock and as mentioned started selling out slowly. My main concerns being the 'mortgaging' of our property interests which DS mentioned earlier in the thread and lack of mgmt communication and some sort of indication that they were fighting our corner.

The reply I received from Andrew Mackintosh (posted over on LSE - I can post it here, quite long and rambling as is my way and a bit of a tricky read he generously answered each question by inserting the answer underneath the questions, so you have to figure out which bits were my questions and which bits were his replies?) has changed my opinion. Obviously we need funding and he couldn't even if he knew, disclose what was happening to just one PI. What I did get was a feeling that there were people within CRES who were working hard purely to add value to our investment. There was also a response with regards to a question about mining and if there was any chance of some value to us if certain scenarios played out, it would appear there is, could be very interesting.

Again if you want me to post it here let me know, otherwise it's posted on LSE. His response has promoted me to stop selling, feel a bit happier with mgmt following that response.

Let's hope it's not Porridge you are watching shortly!

Not eating the pie yet

Such a long time till we drill again, end of 2014 at the earliest.
The sp won't be doing much for a while.
Just have to be patient peeps.

"Selling some is not a bad plan; two broker sell recs today; one of them Investec."

It's not a great idea to sell when you are in a recovery stock situation They may not always be that obvious at the time, but this situation is a definite recovery play as I posted 13/03 when plenty here were strongly suggesting sp 250 or lower (they've all gradually disappeared since, funny that).

blacksash thanks for your reply,have you any idea where the rumour originated i.e next week!previously no one had a clue.

Not wanting to be a smart arsse but hasn't that video been on GKP's site for some time?

What struck me was, yes Todd had a tie on, and that he was in Kurdistan, which might explain why JG was doing some of the salient tasks back here in London, about the same time this went out.
