The Independent repeated its previous “worth a punt” rating of NeutraHealth (NUT) and commented that, judging by its results, the business is already doing “rather well”. Regardless of this positive commentary, the share price was unchanged at 10.00p earlier today.
Scarborough Minerals (SCRB) appeared in Saturday’s Guardian, which commented that the share price had risen following news of the proposed merger with Mineral Securities (Minsec). The deal would form a share swap, whereby 4 Minsec shares would be exchanged for 5 in the Company, though the article reiterated the fact that there was no guarantee such a deal would go ahead. This commentary was also included in Saturday’s Times and The Independent on Saturday and the momentum appeared to spill over into this morning’s trading, where the shares added a further 0.25p to reach 46.75p.
The prices were taken between 9.40am and 9.50am on Monday 12 March 2007.

There is an extra risk of losing money when shares are bought in some smaller companies including 'Penny Shares'. There is a big difference between the buying price and the selling price of these shares. If they have to be sold immediately, you may get back much less than you paid for them or you may have difficulty in selling them. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. The price may change quickly and it may go down as well as up. You could lose every penny put into a particular share.
