News update on the investigation, not only on Blumont, but on the trio...
Probe launched into possible trading irregularities in Asiasons, Blumont, LionGold shares
SINGAPORE — The Commercial Affairs Department (CAD) has begun an investigation into possible breaches of the Securities and Futures Act arising from suspected trading irregularities in the shares of Asiasons Capital, Blumont Group and LionGold Corp.
Today’s (April 2) announcement comes after the shares of all three companies experienced extreme volatility in October last year.
The three stocks were suspended by the Singapore Exchange on Oct 4 after sharp declines in their stock prices erased S$8.6 billion in market value over three days. They were later allowed to resume trading as “designated securities”, implying that there could have been manipulation or excessive speculation.
The CAD is working jointly with the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) in the investigation.

I bet there are a new bunch of people who got trapped and a bunch of existing investors/speculators who got trapped again.
Some people turned millionaire when their businesses get listed but instead of repaying shareholders who invested in them by running their businesses even better, they just devised any means to get more of their money into their own pocket. They are already living a more comfortable life than most people. Still they want more. Greed really knows no boundary.
Hope CAD can bring justice to any wrongdoings.
