Stock Trades: Back into Africa Hydrocarbons

buy-or-sell

The first trade in Africa Hydrocarbons NFK.V 0.135 [0.00] was pretty good; a +79% return is nothing to sneeze at. So yesterday I went back in again for 30,000 shares of NFK at $0.12.  The premise of this trade has not changed a bit; the size of the prize is potentially up
