Took a small punt (admittedly, it was a gamble) on a mining company called Red Leopard Holdings (RLH) last month. Only put £1k in at .45p as I'd heard of possible news on a high yield mine in the U.S. News just came out today that the permission has been granted to open the mine up, so a small rise off the back of that so far today.
If (a big if) they find as much as they think is in there, could be looking at 5p+ per share, so a tidy 10+ bagger for me. May come to nowt, but we shall see.
If you've got a spare few quid looking for a home and aren't averse to a bit of a punt, you could do a lot worse than this!

Their proposed figures in relation to deafness cases were ridiculous and anticipated profit based on those alone rang huge alarm bells for me. Either very naive or deliberately embellished but totally unrepresentative of industry standards.
The question is, what will become of them if they flop. They havebuilt bought a fairly large chunk of market share.
Corrected that for you.The question is, what will become of them if they flop. They have
Everything seems overstated - 50000 vehicle black boxes a month?

How long do we give it before it all comes crashing down?

It's not a bad concept and the companies that Quindell have got into bed with on the back of their formation are not to be sniffed at. The problem seems that it's underpinnings are dubious, their accounting/financial forecasting practices sharp at best, and Terry himself has previous in the form of TIG which makes many nervous.
If it does collapse I wonder how much wheat from the chaff will be extracted in the liquidators fire sale. That would cut to the core of the business and perhaps tell us a little more what is truly beneath each layer (albeit we would know at that stage it didn't have the profitability/foundations it presents to the public).

And another question: Apple: hold or sell? I'm thinking sell but I know it'll go up nicely if i do.
What's your thesis on it? Don't want to sway your opinion but I've had a large longterm position in Apple for the last 2 years. My opinion the year highs for this stock aren't in yet but then again I would be slightly biased with an exit target of $150 at a minimum.Take opinons out of it...
reasons to hold: there's strong evidence of an iwatch coming, new iphones are due soon, seems to be ramping up in China. Christmas quarter for Apple will be huge. Still trading below valuations compared to what some of it's peers seem to trade at, still relatively low institutional holding. Apple still buying back its own stock. Carl Icahn hasn't sold ( thats not a serious reason ) Evidence of apple moving into payment market.
reasons to sell: well if you think the stock has climbed too quick. iPhone and iPad markets are saturated and there's limited further growth to be had, holding a view that Apple won't innovate and come up with new products and it's best days are behind it.

You've pretty much summed up my reasons to sell, far more eloquently than I could have! Also, I've had a good run with it so it'd be nice to take a profit.
Well try and hold on till the close of trading on the 11th might at well claim the dividend Edit: talking rubbish the ex div date is tomorrow

The recent press does look good. It might be worth just shorting on it and make a quick few quid.If (a big if) they find as much as they think is in there, could be looking at 5p+ per share, so a tidy 10+ bagger for me. May come to nowt, but we shall see.

Very pleasant morning this morning, up 40% at the moment! Although it was not much more than a punt in my eyes, I had an exit target in mind that would take me, the wife and baby_t on a camping holiday for a week, might be able to push the boat out if it continues like this!
I may have had a look and put a little on this. Carrys on it will be a bottle of the big stuffGassing Station | Finance | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
