    Does WAS need money?

    Where will the money come from?

    Sale of a 22.6pc stake in Clean Teq Holdings (CLQ)?

    Shareholders may well ask these (and other) questions at the Melbourne AGM on November 19.

    Reviewing Wasabi Energy's full 2012-2013 accounts released on October 21, I note the following:

    . Loss: $11.93m

    . Current assets: $8.63m

    . Current liabilities: $18.03m

    . A qualified report from auditor, Deloitte.

    And now, looking at Wasabi's September quarter statement filed on October 31, I note:

    . Operating cash flow loss: $1.8m

    . Cash: $55,000

    As for share dealings, while one insto buys, another sells.

    On July 15, Luxembourg-based Salida Accelerator Fund subscribed
    to a shortfall placement of 255m shares and 255m options at $0.008.

    This capital injection of $2.04m would have comforted WAS bankers…and some shareholders .

    However later, in the first two weeks of October, Blackrock Investment Management (UK) - once a staunch supporter of WAS and its Kalina Cycle technology - decided to sell big time.

    It flooded the market with WAS scrip, mainly at $0.004.

    But there's more.

    According to documents filed with the ASX, on October 16 Blackrock quietly sold about 5m shares at $0.003c.

    If Blackrock says it sold millions of shares at $0.003 on-market, why do the ASX trading stats for October 16 record a low of $0.005, a high of $0.006 and a close of $0.005.

    Blackrock's $0.003 transactions were booked offshore, perhaps.

    As if undaunted, some traders pumped WAS shares locally to a high of $0.012 on October 22.

    Now, the shares have collapsed to $0.005.

    At this price, WAS sometime savior, Salida Accelerator, is showing a book loss of 37.5%.

    Many HC traders would be hurting more.

    Still, there are now at least 26 buyers bidding for a total of 53.7m shares at $0.004.

    And the current Barchart.com recommendation on WAS? - a sell, albeit at 67%.
