Must be getting a big order from the Olympic site soon, this little penny share could make a fortune, with or without Olympic ite.

[montyhedge] 27/8/2008 12:49

This company will be making a fortune, also work for the Olympic site to earn them loads of money.

Directors buying always a good sign in a small company, this could take off if all goes well.

[egoi] 07/8/2008 16:05

Followed this since inception and always rather liked it.

I happen to know JP has been liquidating a lot of holdings recently, so this is doubly encouraging. have bought a few.

[montyhedge] 07/8/2008 15:51

SVS - certainly the worst broker on AIM - and thats saying something!

They have never been involved with anything that hasnt at least halved in value

[nickcduk] 05/8/2008 13:47

Never ceases to amaze me how much scum there is on AIM. Pushing through a huge dilution at 2p hardly seems worth it. Those of us who picked up stock at 4p look like prize muppets who will have to wait a good few years just to break even. Its disgraceful.

[the_equaliser] 25/7/2008 15:05

I see we have few buying

[nickcduk] 24/7/2008 08:22

The statement does read well but am in no hurry to reach out for the chequebook. Company has duped us before with a trading statement. Id like to see them deliver first before adding to my position. Difficult to really understand what eps would be like on an underlying basis.

[spangle93] 24/7/2008 08:15

Even the outlook statement doesn't make reference to "challenging markets"! What a pleasant start to the day

We have created a strong platform to date which will allow us to drive forward with the growth achieved over the past 18 months. Our position within the relatively robust social housing, alternative energy and defence sectors
should be beneficial. I believe the future is bright for our Group.

Financial Highlights

John Pither, Chairman of Southern Bear, talks about his company in , filmed at the recent show.

[liarspoker] 29/4/2008 08:52

Yep, all is well Spangle93. Thanks for asking. Renovating the house atm so not online much.

STBR is a strange one alright. You'd think that they'd be raking in business left right and centre especially on maintanance conrtacts. I only have a few left and am happy to hold them to see if the story changes. Funnily enough I don't even watch them on my monitor anymore ( shocked smiley here ). ;o)

[spangle93] 29/4/2008 08:44

LOL Liars, wish I did - though I did smile at the irony of telling ME to look at Nighthawk. Hope you and the family and the business are all doing well

The difference is probably engagement with shareholders. There's more activity in a morgue than comes out of this company, while HAWK management is highly visible and frequent updates are issued.

I think WIAL is probably correct about people going where there's more action and possibly for the divvies too. I didn't expect the price to rocket here when I bought in, but it certainly looked like steady share price growth was possible from the numbers.

[liarspoker] 28/4/2008 21:52

I think Spangle93 owns 29.9% of HAWK these days Login. ;o)

Watch him in the resource sector.
