Did they have a lack of knowledge gbh2? Are you sure? How much stock at 10p did they subscribe too? What deal did they walk away with? Those are questions just for starters.

FBDU went down the tube but some former directors ended up with a lot of SGI did they not?

"I suspect they are in the know as to what is going on."

That would be ironic CT, given the state they got the company into due imo to their lack of knowledge re what was going on!

gbh2 - Redundant directors would not need to notify but I doubt if they will be selling as I suspect they are in the know as to what is going on.

It looks like a very professional pick up of stock ahead of the release of the accounts and statement going forward but there were, as someone has already pointed out hints in the last RNS about the value of some of the stock, even allowing for write down.

Any chance of a bid looks cheap

[gbh2] 21/7/2016 09:53

Still a few profit takers around, anyone seen any selling from redundant directors yet?

[clocktower] 21/7/2016 08:52

Expect another late run as we might be in for news early next week bearing in mind the volumes that have traded this week, and on top of the update we had.

(edit 21/7/16... : Thanks MB, appreciated :)

[gbh2] 20/7/2016 14:43

Still some volume here, surely they're not daft enough to have let something slip, news wise??

[clocktower] 20/7/2016 14:43

Returning from lunch I thought my screen had frozen on SGI seeing no trades for the past 30mins or so.

[waldof] 20/7/2016 14:21

Moneybags, have taken you up on your kind offer.

[gbill11] 20/7/2016 13:49

Oh dear so they've been cooking the books. Pity the poor sods who took part in the placing at £3

Lots of verbage in the RNS. Still no idea when the results will be announced. Drop and then uptick. Will it go higher or lower? Probably the latter until release of results

[waldof] 20/7/2016 12:04

Blue by end of day.

[moneybags] 20/7/2016 12:02

But, one thing, It teaches you to be a really good trader.
These are the times when common sense really comes into play.Then,it pay's dividends in the good 'EASY' times.

:-) I would be happy with 9p to 20p as a starter....

[clocktower] 20/7/2016 11:47

Chance would be a fine thing - even if they found a pile of rare stamps the value would drop.

[moneybags] 20/7/2016 11:44

Up Brian, 9p to 30 pounds+
I do remember it helped pay the 3 kids school fees at the time.
Footnote to Stanley Gibbons............Can you go from 9p to 30 pounds+ too, pretty please......?

[briannewby] 20/7/2016 11:32

I was just cutting my teeth in stocks at the time; bought in Autumn 1999 at around the 100p mark. It then powered on up to best part of 30 pounds (I think the top price was reached early March 2000)...

[clocktower] 20/7/2016 11:31

All got your seats for the ride again?

Moneybags... To far to come - Thanks though.

[moneybags] 20/7/2016 11:24

Briannewby, I was in Geo Inter as well if you remember the threads on ESI, run from Cambridge. Christ, was Geo a great share for us as you wil no doubt have been on the same thread as us.
We bought in a 9p for 100,000 shares.
Brian, Remind me, What did it go to....?
