    Why have they dropped? Are they now over- or undervalued? Do you think the board of directors is running the company well? Would you be happy to hold these shares for many years, or are you just hoping that they'll rise up again soon, and are you basing most of that prediction on just the recent drop?

    You need to consider a lot before you buy shares, especially when they're that volatile...

  • i think tate and lyle will prob get shorted like nrk. wait a while
  • Made a few £'s from £3.80 quick deal, but a risky hold, with the third profits warning in such a short time (Coca-Cola & commodity prices to blame)
