as usual, we, the small holders, are the poor used pawns in a bigger, very cynical, game.

Our monies good for the run-up prop up establishments which benefit the big boys - who, in my cynical opinion, don't give two hoots for any of our predicaments, should they be adverse.

The old catch cry of share trading self-help authors - "we're only small minnows in a very large pool of sharks??"

Could we ever imagine that ANY company owner,CEO, including majority holders of any listed company, as, for example Mr. Stokes, lays awake at night worrying about the good or adverse fortunes of any of us??

Call me cynical - but, generalising, these people don't give a damn. For us. Our money's handy, though.

Again generalising, those who make themselves rich on other people's backs, whether by fair means or foul, go on to bigger and better things, their bank accounts fat. I've lost heaps, with many others no doubt on HC, in just one instance of this in recent times. The culprit now sitting pretty overseas with all his cohorts, dredging up the next scam no doubt.

We, the pleb suckers, can only sit out here and second guess just what IS going on here from concerned perusal of seemingly more knowledgable HC posters' opinions. I for one am getting thoroughly fed up with what appear to me to be (allegedly) cute financial games manouvres with regard to this stock and it's stagnating SP - allegedly some seem to be taking part in some wider osmosis of knowledge - but we, the major capital providers, are not.

I'm in no way inferring or alleging any wrongdoings or reporting discrepancies here at all. What would I, or any of us, really know? as with all stocks, we can only trust the info being fed out. Just pointing out the frustrations and the injustice of our constant "have to guess" position. Mr. Stokes. This SP has been stagnant far too long. We want to know why - and WHY this sudden, unforseen and substantial fall?
