SING is now trading at Rs1,750, down from Rs4,000 on 7th April 2011. This highlights the high risk and danger involved in chasing after illiquid shares - when the music is playing, all are smiling and having fun, but when the music stops, things can get very ugly.

Ironically, the SING share is still probably overvalued even though it has fallen over 50% since 7th April.

Extracts from previous post on SING:

Re: WHY SING??????
cse.alpha on Thu Apr 07, 2011 12:52 pm

Apart from colourful legal adventures, takeover attempts and pending rights issue (since Feb 2010), SING is basically a loss-making 'shell' company - only asset is land and warehouse in Ranala.

CSE listed shell companies are of course popular vehicles for 'back-door' listings - see GREG and CSEC for example.

Not clear when SING land was last revalued or exact extent, but may not boost net book value from current Rs 54 per share to defend current share price of Rs 4,000

Only 1.38 mn shares in issue, with only 2,500 shares needed to enter Top 20 shareholders - a manipulator's paradise, but genuine investor's should be careful.

The sad think is that i don't know when the retailers going to stop following the crowd, i think in this forum everybody request the retailers not to follow others, two directors sold between 1,597 - 3,975. So who ever bought this share in the recent past is here, at least now think about it be wise in the future

Enough of warnings were given in the post below.

This is a good experience for those who blindly follow the crowd.

Sad thing is, some our forum members also tried to promote this share (may be on behalf of this directors). This is a good lesson for those who are chasing illiquid shares without any fundamentals. But I doubt, they will not learn any lesson.

Did anyone notice the announcements (disclosure)
the directors have jolly well sold their shares for those absurdly high prices 2 weeks ago. there was another sale on 18th and only after that the disclosure was made.

This director is passing his shares to the retailers little by little. Those who chased illiquid shares will learn a lesson very soon.
