London, United Kingdom ( PressRelaseCollection ) August 11 ,2009 – Aquarius Platinum Limited is engaged in the exploration, development and acquisition of platinum group metals (PGM) including Platinum, Palladium, Rhodium and Gold. Its PGM mining and exploration operations take place in South Africa and Zimbabwe, with administration functions in Australia and Bermuda. In a half year result announced in February 2009, group production rose to 260,208 PGM ounces; 17% higher than the previous six months to June 2008. However it was 6% lower when compared to the six months to December 2007 due to a temporary production suspension at Everest following an early detection of subsidence. At the start of the financial year, Aquarius was targeting a 2009 annual production of 575,000 PGM ounces, representing an increase of approximately 15% on the previous year. <a href="http://www.csspartners.co.uk">Marketing Director</a> Andrew Dyer explained “In a first half year result of 2009, Aquarius reported significant falls in PGM prices with Platinum prices during this period being 56% lower at $904 per ounce compared to the six months to December 2007, while Rhodium prices were 87% lower at $1,250 per ounce. Palladium was 60% lower at $184 per ounce and Gold was 6% lower at $866 per ounce. In the second half of 2009, Aquarius is set to benefit from higher commodity prices as platinum prices rebounded from a year low of $774 in November 2008 to $1186 per ounce in July this year. Palladium prices also rebounded from a year low of $161 to $259. Jewellery has seen some reduction in demand, yet requests from platinum autocatalysts and ETFs(Electronic trade funds) in particular have seen significant growth on strong Chinese auto industry rebound and dollar falls against the euro and sterling.” On daily chart, Aquarius is making a ‘V’ pattern in a range of 170.0p and 316.0p, with a higher low indicating strong uptrend. MACD (moving average convergence/divergence) is negative and 12 day EMA has cross above 26 day EMA indicating formation of upside trend. 14 day RSI (relative strength index) is near 60 showing strength in trend. ADX (average directional index) is near 26 indicating strong positive trend. Stock is also above 20 day and 50 day EMA which supports strength in trend. For a higher move stock has to move above 250.0p with some consolidation as stochastic indicating overbought. The stock has immediate resistance near 268.0p and support near 220.0p. The stock can be bought around 245p with a profit target 273.24p and stop loss of 232.7p (Hedge position: short position in spread betting with £5.09 bet per point).

London, United Kingdom ( PressReleaseCollection ) March 04 ,2009 – <a href="http://www.csspartners.co.uk">SSL International PLC</a> (SSL) has recently released details on their diverse company portfolio, which includes global brands, Durex and Scholl. As well as locally owned companies, such as Meltus, Medised and Syndol in the UK and Sauber Mister Baby in Southern Europe. Charles Street Securities LLP Director Andrew Dyer explained this week “In an interim result for the six months ended September 2008, SSL saw sales grow 10%. This growth was driven by strong performances from the three major categories: Durex, Scholl footcare and Scholl footwear. Durex branded condom sales climbed by 10% thanks to continued strong growth in the UK, France, Eastern Europe, Russia and China. The ‘Play’ range rose by 27.3% to £21m. Scholl footcare sales were up 15.1%, to £84.4m on the back of strong performances from Scholl Cracked Heel Repair Cream and Scholl pharmacy ranges in France and Germany. Scholl footwear sales increased by 9.5% to £42.8m driven by excellent growth in the Asia Pacific region and the integration of the Orthaheel orthotic footwear and insoles business, which was acquired in November 2007. SSL is confident it will achieve double digit operating profit growth by March 2009 by investing in innovative new product developments, expanding distribution into new and developing territories and continued focus on cost control.” <a href="http://www.csspartners.co.uk">SSL</a> restructured the European supply chain by transferring production to the company’s existing facilities in Thailand and India. This rationalisation of manufacturing capacity saw SSL’s gross profit margin hit 60.8% compared with 60.3% in prior year. The improvement was also supplemented by profit generation from Durex, Scholl and other brands. Weakness in the pound against dollar and euro will also improve operating margins. On daily chart, SSL is trading near strong resistance of 500.0p and has not broken this resistance on the last three upside rallies. Over the short term stock has broken the down trend line indicating bullish signal. Moving average convergence/divergence (MACD) is positive and 12-day Exponential moving average (EMA) has cross above 26-day EMA indicating a weak buy signal. 14-day Relative strength index (RSI) is above 50.0 showing strength in trend, stochastic is above 80 indicating some consolidation is expected. For an upside rally stock has to sustain above 500.0p level, support can be found for the stock around 450.0p.
