These figures tell the story of an exciting and exhausting three months, when investment in stocks and shares became a truly mainstream activity - more people traded shares this year than went to football matches!

We also recommend that investors with a 2- to 3-year investment horizon accumulate shares in the sector through a basket of mid-sized bank stocks because there could be a sharp uplift in value due to consolidation activity.

There were probably three times as many companies using N shares in the past compared with those left today. And I believe the market showed its disapproval through the discount that N shares have historically traded at against ordinary shares. At the end of the day it's all about how a company performs.

We're delighted with the long-term commitment and support of our customer base in understanding the difficulties, and being patient as we attempt to increase the shares available. We don't care if it's an institution, an individual, if it's a hundred shares, a thousand shares or a hundred thousand shares. Anybody can place a bid.

Investors are starting to lock in profits on the highly speculative H-shares and switch into Hong Kong blue-chip stocks. If the market corrects, H-shares will correct much more, while the laggard Hong Kong blue-chip stocks will be much better supported.
