Regulated in a very small place.

Lots of policies written at the wrong prices.

Under-reserving.

Bust.

People have pointed out here the under-reserving here etc for years. Industry experienced people are suggesting that this is possibly/probably a zero.

If you continue holding then good luck..but surely listening to the bull and bear cases and weighing them up is a better approach than simply slagging off those of a bearish disposition and wishing they'd go away?

As I said yesterday book value was just 2.4p/share at Dec 31. It's a precarious situation IMO. Maybe something can be salvaged, maybe not.

The losers will always be the PI's that has always been the name of the game in any share. It is sad to see ordinary folk lose their money whilst those at the top prosper and enjoy the good life. Yes, I still hold a few in here so don't want to see them go down the pan but can afford to take the hit thanks to Centamin. Will see if their is an acceptable exit point for me, let's hope their is a turning point here, it would be a nice unexpected bonus.

[escapetohome] 18/7/2016 23:17

Im just pleased im out.

Hope you make a billion though.

[francoismyname] 18/7/2016 22:19

Dear me the spelling police are out in force and tell us you can't invest in shares if you cannot spell.

The worst type of poster with his head up his own arressee ( yes that's mispelt )

I repeat some sad cuunnts on here taking pleasure in others losses.

When your Mrs asked what you did today, tell her you posted on a anonymous bulletin board for a company you have no shares in and your hoping it goes bust so you can prove a point, whilst it's 80 degrees outside.

Hopefully she will see the light and do a runner to try and get a life.

Not sure if Garbet still has any contacts in the business however there is chatter within the business that a S2 deal with the current books/risk sold on is in due diligence stage. If the risk is sold on for less than the £74m reserves then there's a cash balance along with a possible £7.9m receivable. If so then this is a game changer.

I sold out pre suspension (at a huge loss) and may have made a big mistake!..

Goodluck to those who are taking the risk here.

[eezymunny] 18/7/2016 19:55

People who write "your" when they should wrote "you're" should give their money to someone else to invest IMO.

Lots have tried to help here by posting the bear case. As usual they get slagged off by the uneducati .

[luckymouse] 18/7/2016 19:40

francoismyname - the directors shenanigans here cost me plenty so I have some skin in the game so to speak - understand your frustration if your still in - its only natural for investors to either bear a grudge or caveat emptor other investors - thats what BBs are for. And hot tips of course. There's no short game here.

Only about 1 in 100 stocks are real stars (genuine 50% rev gains etc) - maybe 1 in 300 for aim where regs are light & extra due dil is required. The rest are frankly either highly correlated to sector/index sentiment of the moment, going nowhere, or a snake pit.

Out of all that lot - bit odd that you would then choose to defend one where the Directors may have been less than ingenuous resulting in the co imploding?
Most would consider that a straight avoid. No?

[battlebus2] 18/7/2016 18:22

Sorry about that but it's my prerogative to post when I feel like it irrespective of how warm it is, it's always wise to follow up on your previous holdings as a future reference. Maybe this heat's getting to you, after all you should be pleased with today's relisting.

[francoismyname] 18/7/2016 18:13

Ok so your glad your not in and the stock has sank 97% from its highes but why the f&&ok are you still posting here. It's the hottest day of the year and your filling your time posting on a board your not invested in.

Like I said your the real sicko's.

Those of us still in can manage quite well without you in fact we'd be delighted if you went away all together.

[battlebus2] 18/7/2016 18:05

Yes glad I'm not in either but hope shareholders can recoup something tangible.

[escapetohome] 18/7/2016 17:47

Im neither bull nor bear.

Just glad im not in.

If you want to preach Perhaps the truly moral ethical viewpoint is not to go anywhere near companies such as this and suspect leaderships who seem to fleece investors.

Yes investors completely screwed. Perhaps that is more sick than some of your deemed " sickos around"

Perhaps the real sicko is mr -- - - - - -

[francoismyname] 18/7/2016 17:27

Dear me the negative doomsayers are out after the bell.

It's like now they want this stock to fail so they can say they told you so and have no concern for current investors.

Some sicko's around. These are the ones on the motorway trying with all their efforts to see who has been hurt in a car crash on the opposite carriageway.
