Anyone hold any AYM Anglesey Mining? Zinc/Copper miner. Forums suggest a scoping report is overdue which would promote the start of production but it could just be talking it up.

Think i'm done with AIM in general. It's totally illogical and manipulated stuff.

Maybe in the long run it will pay off but I wouldn't put much weight to a 28% daily move. I've watched certain AIM shares of mine fly up and then drop 40% over the course of a few days based on nothing fundamental. I can see the appeal of hitting the jackpot, but AIM seems more like playing the lottery to me.

Isn't this as much to do with the relative illiquidity of the shares rather than manipulation? Not that I'm suggesting there isn't huge amounts of ramping too though!

It's FTSE fledgling but I agree about any penny share being hugely speculative.

I'd be inclined to disagree. Although it does take a lot less money to be able to make an impact on the price compared to equities traded on the major indices.

PMO over the last week has made me feel sick! But I think the corner is now turned.

MTFB is going to rise steadily now towards the next news on Iclaprim's progress.

Oil is down around 10%. Most oil stuff is going down generally as a result.

Crude was loaded with huge long positions not surprised at the velocity of the flush down. Watch for a back test of 50.50-52 wti if it fails there then a possible move down to 42 could be on the cards.

GBPUSD is working on an inverse head and shoulders pattern, if over 1.275 should target a 6.3% move higher to around 1.35ish, invalid below 1.19. The boat on that one is loaded to the short side.

No, it got stuck and now looks like the OPEC freeze is just giving more market share to the US, so probably won't last. It seems it was "too high for too long" that it enabled shale oil/gas to get past the critical point of improving the technology so they could continue to lower costs once the price dropped (if you have the right acreage). I am quite oil exposed in my "own investing money" at the moment as I know the industry and am ok waiting for it to recover longer term. However I am strongly considering taking money out now to buy in later at a cheaper price considering how it looks.

You can buy them now. I don't know if there is much point though.

They have little chance of making you rich and quite possibly in the short term loosing a fair bit, that's if you don't die of boredom watching them do nothing. High street banking is a dodo, prolonged low interest rates will ensure it stays that way.

Just my opinion.
