Silent stake building going on in the background.
Stamp Fund already avertised in SG Magazine.

Gregory - In @ 85p, out @ 87p & a limit to buy back in @ 86p??

I agree, a profit is a profit; and I too will scalp a small turn; but surely a bit chancy to sell @ 87p in the hope of buying back @ 86p? Any good news on the Stamp Fund front and we could leave these mid/late 80s well behind.

[gregory0106] 23/11/2005 07:59

I have sold back out for a small, but welcome, pofit as price looks like its started down again, but have order to buy back at 86p as I feel mid 80's is a strong level.

[mryesyes] 22/11/2005 17:08

No I think get in at this price. The directors only trimmed their massive holding over £1. This is a good place for your money this Winter.

[yf23_1] 22/11/2005 16:21

no postings for ages and the buys today not shifting the price.
Methinks somethings is amiss.
I dumped at 90p.
Only Watching at present.

tree shake happening, hold tight,are they are short of stock?

[gregory0106] 21/11/2005 08:04

Yes, always seems to drift down due to general lack of trades and then suddenly start to rise again once a few buyers return.

Lets hope we see it back above £1 before year end and hope for no more large sales from directors which seem to have brought it back down from £1 levels recently.

Ah Gregory.
So you are the unlucky blighter I see in the mirror when shaving, I thought it was me..are we using the same tealeaves...lol

If all the previous charts are to be looked on as norm, we are in for a good rise....lets hope so, its been driven down by so little sellers, but thats always been the trouble in the past, slightly illiquid stock..imho

[gregory0106] 19/11/2005 12:06

xdavid - thanks for the explanation.

Skyship - It makes a change if I get timming right. I normally seem to buy just as it then goes lower and sell just before it spikes up. So I am keeping everything crossed. Certainly ended the week with nice rise.

[skyship] 18/11/2005 17:26

Gregory - congratulations - certainly looks as though you've timed it well. I hope it continues to prove so!

Ain't hinsight wonderfull?

[elmfield] 18/11/2005 12:46

So the time to add was yesterday!!

[alwaysphoto] 18/11/2005 11:48

Here she goes again - always the same pattern

[alwaysphoto] 18/11/2005 11:16

Good timing - volume is increasing - always a Christmas gift!

[abergele] 18/11/2005 10:15

brokers sculduggery, you know you bought them, but they don't want to make it easy on others watching for a positive movement....maybe a broker being generous, passing them over at a sellers price...imho.

If there's such a thing as a generous broker...lol

[gregory0106] 18/11/2005 09:49

Couldn't resist it. Another 2500 at 85p. Can anyone explain why my purchase is showing on trades screen in the "?" column.

[gregory0106] 18/11/2005 09:39

Added yesterday 5K @ 85.2. Was a surprise as had given order to buy at 86.5 so a good discount on that.

Still available now at 85p with squaregain (was comdirect) even though market indicates 87p offer. Must admit am tempted to take more.

[elmfield] 17/11/2005 18:07

There will be a time to add, just not sure when.

[robsy2] 17/11/2005 18:03

I am aholder of the stock and have just been on the Frasers site and bought a Merle Haggard signature. The site works well and it was a very pleasant shopping experience.
When you combine the SGI shopping experience with the mission statement detailed above the whole thing is totally convincing.
I am convinced that holding SGI is a lovely way to get exposure to the growing alternative investment market.
Keep the faith

Skyship - Its now down below 86p so looks like the years uptrend is over.

This could yet fall further so I have cancelled my buy order and will await some sign of life before pilling back in.

Anyone have views on where the bottom will be?

[getscenic] 15/11/2005 21:00

bedlam increases stake. what do they know?

[high park] 14/11/2005 18:40

Spot on ygor, heavy volume last two days, bad sign if they were sells, but today there was one massive MM assisted T buy. Having filled that one, they can probably relax the share price

[ygor705] 14/11/2005 17:54

Buys 20 times bigger than sales today and the price still goes down. Due a bounce soon.

[skyship] 12/11/2005 12:59

Gregory - may not get that far down as 87.5p is the floor of the one year uptrend.

Strange trade this week. Volumes very much on the up, especially over the past three days - but the share price sliding an uncomfortable 6% on the week. This in spite of no obvious large seller; and two large 100/- buys @ 90p.

We are surely due an update on the Stamp Fund; and any positive news on that front would likely see us challenging that 100p ceiling yet again.

In the meantime we may get an RNS telling us who was the buyer of those 200/-.
