This week saw something of a re-bound in shares of Tungsten Corp PLC albeit the shares are still down significantly over the month.  After the travails of last week the shares followed up the rather ambiguous announcement of last Thursday with news on the Friday of a successful placing of new equity.   The company has raised GBP17.5 million after conducting two placings of just shy of 21.9 million new shares at 80.0 pence per share.  The company reported strong demand from institutional investors as well as on-going support from management who added to their already significant holdings in the raise. 

LendingClub Corporation built on the gains of last week with another week of steady gains.
