Okay is this priced for failure or breakup or is it actually some good assets at fire sale prices- the margin of safety is about noting given the price is about nothing - Okay I lie - it depends on how many you buy if it subsequently folds?

On Threshold's advice on the old forum,(which I still miss instead of this #^&$) I climbed a few ladders on this one,only CFDs, but did slide down quite a big snake. Keeping a beady eye on it.

If you're asking me......no longer waiting of anything on this one. I would be more accurate predicting when Mt Etna is going to erupt next, than calling the bottom on this one, just taking up space on my watchlist at present.

I suppose the underlying question really is : what is the likely catalyst for change ( either positive or negative- of couse) ?

Until sector starts improving I think companies will continue to slide. Those who have cash might survive others may almagamate but until government changes don't expect improvement. Some were looking to mining to get some business but Zwane has put a spanner in that works, hasn't he?
