Wordsworth Shares Slide Halted?

London Daily Bugle August 2010

Troubled Wordsworth Energy hasn't had much going in its favour recently but its announcement last week that it has concluded an informal agreement to work with environmental organization Shared Heritage and relief organization Nurture to enhance the social and environmental impact of its activities has triggered a mild flurry of interest
in its shares by Ethical Investment Mutual Funds, some of which have deserted it over the last year.

Wordsworth shares closed at 268, up slightly from its lowest price of 265.

"It's better than nothing," says analyst Susan Wilkinson, "but unless Wordsworth can make a difference to its bottom line - and to its prospects, particularly in Thibaw - then there's no short-term chance of major appreciation of this share."
