Breaking news and expert analysis on fast-moving AIM and LSE listed shares
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from ShareProphets). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.
I met up for dinner on Wednesday night with Paul Atherley of Leyshon Resources (LRL). Paul needed no reminding of the share price but was not complaining. He is enough of a market veteran to know that there is no point bleating you just have to deliver. He is not allowed to give me inside information on the Chinese drilling but we sort of talked around it.

tom,
your ‘dinner with paul atherley’ piece led to my taking a look at leyshon and i liked what i saw from a risk/reward perspective
however i’m unimpressed by the company’s failure to update the market apropos the demerger of the energy assets following the quarterly report rns on 29th october in which the latest timeframe for the shareholders meeting to ratify the deal was given as late november/early december, which of course cannot now be met due to the notice requirement
i’d be interested to hear your views
