There has been a lot of comment on AQL on Sharechat in recent times -
all very healthy. 
Being of the analytical mode (needing facts, figures and adequate
research to back up my investment decisions), I never lose sight of the
fact that after AQL's assets divestment process is completed, it will be
left a "cash shell" to be able to enter into new business opportunities
(acknowledged publicly by the company a couple of days ago).
Whether this new direction is E-Commerce (as widely predicted) or
something else, public anticipation of a quick rise in the price of the
AQL stock (when the announcements are made) will ensure that its price
will quickly soar. We only have to look at the ADV and SMR stocks to
remind ourselves of their rise to dizzy heights.
The big question for us investors is whether we buy AQL stock now, or do
we wait until the announcements are made?
Judging by the many Sharechat subscribers who already hold shares,
including those who still intend to hang on to their AQL stock despite
their dislike of Eric Watson, I think that decision has already been
made.
