Tipped at 17p (when the buy price was 17.25p).
Today 10.563p.
Percentage of your money you'd have lost on this 'sure thing' so far: 40%.
Nice work Beachy!
I'm only relaying what you stated. You did not state that you bought at 17p and I'm not representing that you did.
But you did state that at 17p you had made a 33% profit. That means you bought around 13p.
I'm not fabricating things - they are your own words I'm hanging you with.
13p * 1.33 = 17.29p. So the facts, as detailed by you, means at the current price you can't be in profit. Unless the "facts" have changed now, of course.

...or the board's other 5,000 or so members pissing themselves months later.
You know you could have put that cash under your mattress and, even accounting for inflation eroding the real worth of your money, you'd be better off than your sure-fire, well-researched, calculated investment.
You...
Tipped at 17p. Note that was 17p mid, so was 17.25p to buy.
Today I note we are at 13.5p, or 13.25p to sell.
So only a 23% loss since this hot hot hot tip.
Of course. And there was no possibility of the price plunging, before any subsequent bid approach and any bid price being lower than your lucky purchase price.
Let's ignore the fact that it was 100% guaranteed that Pipex would be taken over because it wasn't guaranteed at all, your gamble has...
