Any seniors comments on price movement tomorrow?
You are right. GPH is listed in SGX therefore the price fluctuation is normal. 50% up. 50% down.
Afterall, its a free market. You are free to sell or to buy at your own will. If your outlook
towards this counter is south. You do not need rocket scientist to guide you what to do next.

OCBC came in to stabilize sentiments at 25cents
GPH finally closed below ipo price despite Mr Koh Wee Meng the CEO of both GPH n Fragrance still buying to support the counter...Fragrance held up better
Hi, not sure if you know what you are talking about.
This result for 1st quarter is before IPO, how to give dividend when Q1 is still under Fragrance Group?
  Even if they want to follow parent company to give dividend per quarter, it will start in Q2 results or Q3(Q2 is not a full quarter for the company)

but no buying interest... still keeping the IPO shares. :)
GP Hotels - Profit from the Period Q1-2011 - 4327 Mil to Q1-2012 - 6358 Mil. 
Profit from the Q1 2011 to Q1 2012 is 46.9% (INCREASE). 

Please refer to SGX website for detail information.
15 May 2012 (Tuesday) - 1Q Result for Global Premium Hotels and Fragrance Group. 
Buy 0.255(1988mil) Sell ).26(979000)..still well supported wonder why investors want to sell at ipo price to cut loss? Even if they bought at 26cts still hve to pay comission if they got the bulk as placement shares(ie no balloting)..selling at 26cts still a big loss?..strongly belive if mkt deteriorates further may touch 20cts or below
