BT today quoted blumont not under SGX investigation so Sgx must be investigated why create low mkt, nvr mind lah tq to SGX for allow us to buy cheap cheap
Singapore Exchange Ltd. (S68.SG) is investigating short-selling activity seen in the shares of Asiasons Capital Ltd. (5ET.SG) and Blumont Group Ltd. (A33.SG) that violate trading curbs placed on those stocks, the bourse said Thursday.
Asiasons and Blumont are among three stocks subjected by SGX to trading restrictions and added scrutiny since Monday after sharp plunges last week. The curbs included bans on short selling, margin trading and contra trading. "We will be investigating these cases and take the appropriate disciplinary actions as necessary," Kelvin Koh, SGX's head of market surveillance, said in an email response to queries from The Wall Street Journal. The short-selling activity in question took place on Monday, he said, without elaborating on the investigations. Asiasons and Blumont declined to comment.
In his Thursday comments, Mr. Koh said SGX would continue monitoring trading activity on the three stocks, and "lift the designation as soon as it is appropriate to do so."
The short-sale ban required that sellers of the three stocks already own the shares they wish to sell. In short selling, an investor borrows a security from a broker in order to sell it, hoping to buy it back later at a lower price to repay the broker, with the investor pocketing the price difference. Buyers of the three stocks, meanwhile, will have to pay cash immediately to settle the trades upon execution, rather than buying on margin, or using borrowed money. SGX's designated-securities framework also bars online trading and contra trading. In a contra trade, an investor offsets an earlier share purchase with an equivalent sale before the initial deal is settled; this allows an investor to book profits without committing any capital, as long as the selling price is higher than the purchase price. Some action will be taken against those who shorted heavily must have prior insider info..CAD will act against especially the directors or related relatives...
Lift designation lah, unfair for shrholders on margin who kena forced sale under unsupervised short selling case. who now dare to buy SGX shr on margin, if kena designation play margin shareholder sure bankrupt
crooks..more crooks and more cans of worms uncovered..
I just found out that even a recent ID appointed in July 2013, Yin Kum Choy, is clearly not going to independent and has a questionable history. Somehow SGX allowed his appointment and accepted the answer to this query:
“On 12th July 2004, upon the finding of the Inquiry Committee of the Public Accountants Oversight Committee that Yin Kum Choy is guilty of improper conduct in the discharge of his professional duty...the Public Accountants Oversight Committee ordered that Yin Kum Choy pays a penalty of $5,000/-...”
Yin was a director in Inno Pac and IPCO in the late 1990s and First Engineering, hence making him a member of the Soh Chee Wen clan. SGX should consider removing the word Independence or put a disclaimer somewhere if they keep allowing such appointments to pass through.
I wonder why the stocks of all these Soh Chee Wen related stocks are not under SGX radar much earlier. Wow crooks after crooks..opening more cans of worms...
Look like the angmo going to head Bluemont is also a crook or useless guy,otherwise kenna sack..red flag also why management still has to force sell by banks...all pledged their co's shares to banks like what the S chip directors had done so previously..co may eventually fold up..what's your views
Rio Tinto is a bluechip co so when they sack him, he must be really " useless" . Shows that he is incapable as CEO. Though sacking took place 1 year ago, it is relevant to his character reference. SouthGobi Resources fires CEO Molyneux
(Financial Post Published 12/9/2012)
Mining giant Rio Tinto Ltd. has terminated the chief executive of SouthGobi Resources Ltd., removing one of the only remaining links to the Robert Friedland era in its Mongolian business. The move Wednesday to fire Alex Molyneux is part of Rio?s effort to improve strained relations with the Mongolian government and get SouthGobi?s idled mine re-started. It comes just a day after Mr. Friedland launched an initial public offering of Ivanplats Ltd., his first big move since resigning from Turquoise Hill Resources Ltd. (formerly Ivanhoe Mines).
Rio Tinto took control of Turquoise Hill in April in order to get its hands on the giant Oyu Tolgoi mine in Mongolia. It also ended up with some non-core assets. One of them is the majority stake in SouthGobi, which controls the Ovoot Tolgoi coal mine (also in Mongolia). And SouthGobi was turning into a major political headache for Rio Tinto.
Shortly before Rio got control of Turquoise Hill, Mr. Friedland cut a deal to sell its SouthGobi stake in to Aluminum Corp. of China Ltd. (Chalco).
This infuriated many Mongolians, who dislike their powerful Chinese neighbours and worry about falling under their thumb. The timing of the announcement was particularly bad because Mongolia was in the midst of an election cycle and political rhetoric was elevated.
AdvertisementThe Mongolian government quickly suspended SouthGobi?s licences on Ovoot Tolgoi, and the parliament passed a foreign investment law the main purpose of which appeared to be stopping this deal. Mr. Molyneux, SouthGobi?s then-CEO, said last month that he thought the Chalco deal had virtually no chance of success.
?Without clear regulation on the foreign investment law or without a process through which such foreign investment proposals can be reviewed and considered, it?s almost impossible to see how Chalco can navigate its bid through the Mongolian government infrastructure,? he said on a conference call.
Apparently, Chalco agreed ? it dropped the bid a couple of weeks later.
It is understood that Rio Tinto was not pleased about Mr. Molyneux?s public comments, seeing them as detrimental to its relations with the government. It also wanted to bring someone into SouthGobi with mining experience who could manage a re-start of the mine.
As a former investment banker, Mr. Molyneux was not that person. He was replaced Wednesday with Rio Tinto veteran Ross Tromans.
Rio?s move also distances SouthGobi from the Friedland era. Mr. Molyneux was personally hired by Mr. Friedland to run the coal business, and is one of his longtime business associates. But SouthGobi is now controlled by Rio Tinto, and no one was surprised that Rio wants one of its own people running it.

This chow angmoh who was sacked from Rio Tinto is nothing, but a stooge to those crooks from up north.

I expect more blood on the streets on Monday when those early birds who bought and Monday will take whatever profits available
The effect will be felt by the secondary, innocents or otherwise all new resources stocks like Mirech Energy, Rex, Magnus, IPCO, Ramba Innopac( a member of the infamous 3 Those who bought on Tue 8 Oct can start selling on Mon 14 Oct..and for Bluemon the rights shares coming back soon ..more downward pressure..
Be careful if the loans pledged by designated stocks were used to buy more such designated stocks previously..then the domino effect difficult for the 3 stocks to rise..u notice those who rush in to biuy in the morning by afternoon or 10a.m the stocks start to fall..effect of forced selling by the banks
RED FLAG:
Forced sales by bank on Thurs 10 Oct:
1) Former Executive Chairman Neo Kim Hock sold 2.922m shares @20c for $586,416
2) Present CEO James Hong Gee Ho sold 1.5m shares @19.82c for $297,300

Thanks..hope sgx can actions faster....if sgx suspend this three counters...sgx ceo better provide a super good reasons or else pls resign

Of course u are right. They deliberately stopped servicing the loan to trigger the force selling, so that they can keep reducing their share holding to the market.These buggers have planned so many ways to exit, very experience people.
the Edge named one KL Soh as the suspected master mind as some of his old associates that surfaces can be traced as his loyalist, but Datuk Soh dnt have that much money so most likely KL old money is in with him so now all abandoned ship
So sad for u bro Richman..take it as only $$$ lost but u still have your life to live on

Anyway,I have other counters to take care of,this one let it rot first. Bluemont was 0.019-0.02 in Dec 2011 and Asiasons was 0.18-0.19..so the sharp crash is back to its old level again,becareful by Mon 14 Oct,those who bought cash upfront can start selling..probably morning up a biy by afternoon price will head south again especially forced selling by directors pledging to banks haven't stopped yetChairfallCop

I love my bluechips and I am not parting with it at the moment.
I biggest mistake is greed. I went in at 1.60 and didn't take profit at 2.20 and everything happen so fast and I have no time to react.
Greed is the biggest killer !

retailers must trade with care not to carry big fishes' babies as can be seen from sgx announcement. brokerages may also be unwinding theirs and/or their clients' positions in these 3 companies.

If co is still profitable esp with its new cash injections via rights issue and new CEO..unlikley Bluemont will be suspended or go bust...of course Bluemont is never like Citibank too big to fail or saved by govt fund...worth the punt

Anyone who bought > 15cts based on 1 for rights at $0.05 =$0.117 (0.15x2+0.05)/3.will lose $$$.Bluemont was about 30cts in Jan 2013,hence majority would have lost $$$ unless they took profits along the way..quite tempting to buy now

Singapore Exchange To Lift Trading Curbs on Three Stocks
By Chun Han Wong
SINGAPORE--Singapore Exchange Ltd. (S68.SG) said Friday that it will lift bans on short selling and margin trading on three stocks that were recently put under stricter trading rules due to unusual share-price movements.
Trading curbs on Asiasons Capital Ltd. (5ET.SG), Blumont Group Ltd. (A33.SG) and LionGold Corp. (A78.SG) would be lifted Monday, as "trading in these stocks has since become more stable," SGX said in a statement.........
Our system’s recommendation today is to BUY. The BULLISH THREE GAP DOWNS pattern finally received a confirmation because the prices crossed the confirmation level which was at 0.1170, and our valid average buying price stands now at 0.1200. The previous QUIT recommendation was issued on 7/10/2013, 11 days ago, when the stock price was 0.1300.
Market Outlook
The green light is on and this security is now screaming BUY. It is action time! The bullish pattern that was previously identified is finally confirmed and a BUY signal is generated. Most probably, it is the right time to participate in bullish fervor. Do not miss this bullish opportunity.
ENOUNCEABLE NON-UNDERWRITTEN RIGHTS ISSUE OF UP TO 861,002,293 NEW ORDINARY SHARES (THE “RIGHTS SHARES”) IN THE CAPITAL OF BLUMONT GROUP LTD.(THE “COMPANY”) AT AN ISSUE PRICE OF S$0.05 FOR EACH RIGHTS SHARE, ON THE BASIS OF ONE (1) RIGHTS SHARE FOR EVERY TWO (2) ORDINARY SHARES IN THE CAPITAL OF THE COMPANY HELD BY SHAREHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY AS AT THE BOOKS CLOSURE DATE, FRACTIONAL ENTITLEMENTS TO BE DISREGARDED (THE “RIGHTS ISSUE”)
The 861,002,293 Rights Shares will be listed and quoted on the Official List of the SGX-ST on 22 October 2013, and trading of the Rights Shares will commence with effect from 9.00 a.m. on the same date.
If you dont mind me asking. What impact will this have on the share price tomorrow?? Will it impact the price Or the impact has already taken place during the announcement of issues of right shares??
Fundamental the company is good. Dont think will dip much lower as long BB interest. Believe market already absorb the Rights Issue matter. It only take long time to climb back 80cts. Can buy but suggest invest 50% of cash in case weak market sentiment.
This is a free market. Me seldom give advise but have to say this. These 3 stocks A,B and L still under watch by SGX. Vaporize S$4 or 6 billion(forgotten) when prices fell from dollar to cents. Now desperate look for fund raising. Try anything funny again, they will go back to square one. That what I'm afraid of, and for that reason me limited $$$$$ invest in.
