Arising from the very strong recommendations made on Nov. 4, one would normally weight LACO by a factor of at least 2.5 times the normal outlay.

As to the background of LACO, see entry of Nov. 27, 2000.

 

The share price of CLH has risen strongly in the last few days.

The reason for this is not known.

 

These results were achieved against a slumping US market, a falling US dollar and talk of a cut in the Opec oil supply.
