Re: Newsflow.. `In line... bt - what a nightmare! Markets have actually recovered since September, but resources continue to struggle, and today poor old PDL gets absolutely clobbered for increasing production by 1%.The good old chart had flagged up troubled times well ahead of the current rush for the exit. Interesting that the chart gave a very short lived sell signal in Feb, and the confirmed sell signal came in May. Since June it has been horrendous.Holders will just have to hunker down and hope there isn't too long to wait for a recovery, but it will recover at some point, its just a matter of when.

Re: Newsflow.. `In line... I`m expecting the numbers to be roughly in line with expectations... we`ll see.How that moves the price I guess will depend on the details, and `outlook`...The growing middle classes of the East will continue to seek the gemstones, and China looks set to continue to head to higher levels in the economic league tables, but the adjustments will take time...

Re: Newsflow.. The question has to be, with BRBY, getting smacked from lower demand, will that spill over to the diamnd market?

first trance at c.80 good entry point i think. diamonds outlook - positive long term. some short term hassles expected H2 15 but positive outlook. this fall is hugely overdone. China fears, overall risk-off and negative mining sentiment. eventually it will turn too, so happy to build a position here btw 50-80p and hold for a while.

Re: IC: Says Buy: @ 98p I think one of the US big chiefs (maybe head of central bank) was warning that markets had significantly over heated, several ,months ago.So, the recent drops probably disguise the fact, and the china situation is being used as a cover.So, its a general shakeout of over priced stocks, I believe.I suspect that the smart operators are lining up the real value stocks at these levels, and quietly doing some shopping..But with global issues looming in the news, and Europe being invaded by masses of bogus so called `migrants`, its no wonder folk are uneasy.Not to mention the global debt situation, and other matters...Our markets were smashed by those greedy banking jokers in 2008, playing with all sorts of fancy city instruments..Our regulators were fast asleep, and really haven't got a clue how the operate the system they have unleashed. So the market cowboys and spivzs have a field day short selling stocks they don't own.. It all needs to stop and return to proper investing, where long term investment is encouraged.Its time to reform the current market casinos, where the mavericks are running amok.... and causing huge damage to the whole business system...Osborne`s `Northern hub` vision`/pipe dream has once again been given a big boot by the Steelworks shut down on Teesside. Global chaos prevails... it would appear.But I thoink from a value perpective, Petra must rate as a decent recovery play, assuming no really nasty market events occur.The media don't help, with there constant headline hype and sensationalist commentary... who`se agendas are being promoted by all this...?I have to laugh when I see phrases like `the market doesn't like uncertainty`...The world is a constantly changing place... and the big maverick gamblers want certainty before they place there bets...?We don't want to be driven by these spivzs, who only want to play out there short term games.That's one reason that I`m hoping Yellen holds her nerve, and keeps rates on hold for the time being, to alow some global dust to settle. She and the FED must not allow themselves to be bullied by the market cowboys.Stability is the watchword until some semblance of order is restored....and some of the debt imbalances are dealt with. Yes, a slow rise in rates at some stage...So many global issues.. even the POPE on his visit to the US has flagged up some very serious matters, that must be addressed as a matter of urgency.Good luck with your investing..

Re: IC: Says Buy: @ 98p No I understrand where you are coming from. The volatility has been quite gut wretching, up nicely one minute, then down a little in the next hour today. Up currently nicely, but didn't take two when they were offered.Still in this game you only win by protecting what you've got.Took me a long time to understand that!

Re: IC: Says Buy: @ 98p bt - the level of fear in the market does seem to have got a real hold, and folks now seem reluctant to buy any dips, which probably suggest that markets wont go much lower than the August dip ie so many folks gripped by fear, those with an inclination to apply a bit of greed should appear soon.Whether any bounce back can sustain itself is another matter, but currently sentiment has go so low, a bounce back looks a reasonable bet. Once PDL starts to attract more buying interest there could well be a 15 to 20% bounce.Its a tough one though, especially as US markets are wobbling again today. Not sure I have the b*lls for it -

IC: Says Buy: @ 98p This week's IC says buy @ 98p. Can't post the article as I only have the paper mag, apologies.No position yet, but considering it, if it gets 'cheaper' and there is a shakedown.
