Looking at the big holders you'd think that if they were holding a dog, they would sell eagerly into strength.
It may of course be that they would end up swamping the market with sells.
However, it may also be that they are 'holding their horses' because there is an expectation of greater value in the future.
I haven't yet seen an analysis based on for example the worth of the company based on 2 areas:
- accumulated losses to set against future profits
- value as an already-listed company

Folk expect a visible story to be already in place!

This is logoically not possible, as the price would already have risen...
(Pretty obvious, yet so many potential investors can't understand the principle of taking on exceptional risk by paying next to nothing for a share).

We are left with a highly speculative propostion.

It's a visit to the poker table - win or lose a bit of your shirt!

"Blue Star Capital is a newly established company created with the aim of providing initial seed capital for the development of early stage companies. -

Nigel Robertson – Executive Chairman, Blue Star Capital plc

Nigel Robertson is currently non-executive chairman of Gaming Insight plc, Reflexion Cosmetics plc and a non-executive director of Spiritel plc. He is the former chief executive of scoot.com plc, formerly Freepages Group plc, of which he was the founder."

Would this not give him the additional funds he needs for an aquisition?

"Outlook

We are continuing to look at suitable opportunities for acquisitions and the
future of the Company is dependent on its ability to successfully complete an
acquisition and raise additional funds that may be required as part of an
acquisition.


Nigel Robertson
Chairman
30 September 2004"

Maybe the recent activity suggests that this has happened?

HELLO OXFORD BLUE... I think that Nigel Robertson is organising some big deal in the back ground. The volumes of shares traded is picking up - somebody in the City knows something we do not know as usual. Nigel Robertson as been pumping cash into GIN to keep it afloat he certainly would not do that if he thought he could not pull of something very worthwhile, or he is working on something very worthwhile in my opinion. We will just have to waite and see but just keep looking at the volumes.

[oxford blue] 18/12/2004 11:27

Hello Sagem: could you substantiate your anticipation and hope, please?

Thanks.

[sagem] 16/12/2004 16:33

Somebody has just bought 2.5million shares something is going to happen SOON

[sagem] 16/12/2004 10:36

i HAVE JUST BOUGHT 50000 AND THEY HAVE BEEN SHOWN AS A sell
BOUGHT AT 0.0024P THESE ARE ALL BUYS NOT SELLS AS SHOWN.

[sagem] 16/12/2004 10:12

Nigel Robertson is cooking up some big deal for GIN THATS WHY HE IS NOT LETTING GO OF THIS COMPANY. We will soon hear a RNS ANNOUNCEMENT.

[westernedge] 15/12/2004 23:58

Sorry oxford... busy doing some research.. result? cant find a sniff of anything happening here
To answer the question...The price and quantity and this being a dog n all...
One day somat will happen... and they dont have forever
But nothing to go on to have gamble... but ill keep watchin thru interest
Good luck...

[oxford blue] 14/12/2004 10:37

Hello, western, what makes you think it's a buy?

[westernedge] 13/12/2004 23:53

Ive had this on a forgotten watch list which i just stumbled upon whilst deleting some files... is that fate? lady luck? coincidence?..
having caught up on the past few years newsflow i doubt it somehow..lol

however... i think that 7.5m is likely a buy fwiw so will keep a closer watch on this.. something or nothing? who knows
dead money until somat happens.. if there ever is a deal is likely to move quickly.. big if of course..good luck

[oxford blue] 13/12/2004 23:39

And yet no fall in price. The MMs could easily have sold that large a block at below .23 or even movedthe bid down. Movements in this stock are highly unconventional and hard to predict.

Is there anyone out there? ...

[johnives] 13/12/2004 10:10

Huge sell this morning ie 7.5m. Can anyone read anything into this ??

[oxford blue] 09/12/2004 23:29

Large buy today - by GIN's standards. Any ideas anyone?

[sagem] 09/12/2004 20:24

OXFORD BLUE..... They did say that the Chairman Nigel Robertson the man behind the AIM'S BEST FOUR PERFORMERS this year in anticipation of am acquisistion or reverse takeover of another company - and knowing the parties involved one would expect the shares to move higher.

[oxford blue] 07/12/2004 23:41

Did Money Week substantiate on their tip?

Thanks.

[sagem] 07/12/2004 20:39

NOT ENOUGH VOLUME FOR ANY RUMOUR AS YET.

[oxford blue] 05/12/2004 11:37

Well, the narrowing of the spread has seen an effective drop of the bid from .26 to .20 (c 30%!). Given that Nige and Haresh have been quite active of late, wouldn't GIN have figured in their plans by now? I wrote to Charless Russell's Simon Gilbert who replied saying that they have nothing on in respect of GIN at the moment.

Any other rumours or noises ... ?

[sagem] 05/12/2004 07:19

This was tipped in Money Week 12th November as GAMBLE OF THE WEEK it is expected that Nigel Robertson the man behind the four best performers this year
in anticipation of an acquisition or reverese takeover of another company.

SO WE MAY SOON HEAR SOMETHING.......KEEP LOOKING FOR AN RNS.

[oxford blue] 24/11/2004 09:21

What prompts that comment, Sagem?

[Later Addendum} Do you know something we don't? The price fell rather heavily after your comment. Anyone know what's going on. Sellers seems to push the price higher, whereas a buyer or two - and it sinks!

[sagem] 24/11/2004 09:16

could we hear news soon I wonder

[battery boy] 18/11/2004 15:49

...and the 100,000,000 warrants 08/01/2003

[venomousviper] 18/11/2004 09:38

There are over 800 million shares in issue .There were 2 placings of 200 million a time just before it went belly up.

[sweet cherry pie] 17/11/2004 17:55

johnives - apologies, but see above !

JUAN1 - so you are absolutely positive that GIN only have 253M shares in issue currently ?

[johnives] 16/11/2004 20:33

Dear Sweet Cherry Pie

You appear to be firing blanks if you know what I mean !!
