This used to be called VTB.

They have fallen from about 3p since June & they reached 7p a year ago.

The share seems to be showing signs of life.

I've put a small amount in again as a big gamble.

This goes aginst what I usually do because it is an AIM share with a big spread but it's only a small amount just for fun.

Volume rising, interesting!

I wonder what SHARES' view is. They had VTB as a play of the week some time ago but I did not see anything again so does that mean they think it is still a hold, or do they sometimes just take shares of their playlist without a update . Unless I missed a update please let me know if anybody else saw any update.

sconradie

I didn't see one.

I think an even slightly positive RNS will kick this upwards & take people by surprise.

unusual no trades at all today

A few today, what next, who knows?

For you guys : press mention, will appear in tomorrow's Times Newspaper.

Rumour of the day

AIM-listed World Television, created from last months reverse takeover of Virtue Broadcasting, held steady at 1p on word that it has won a contract to televise The Greatest Race on Earth, the inaugural four-marathon event sponsored by Standard Chartered, the bank. The challenge ends in February.

http://business.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,8211-1350402,00.html

Does anybody know "whats up" with these shares... big drop today although they won a extra contract recently?

Price recovering,

there was a stampede to buy on this dip.

Sudden pickup in Buying.

dropped today though...have issued new loan noteand statement of trading out today....down 0.25 spread 1 to 1.25

So now we know why it has been falling for so long.

At least the bad news is out of the way.

& there is some reason for optimism.

Up again today.

Above where it was before yesterdays drop.

Up 22% is not unusual for this share.

Volatile or what?

Is there still hope for this share? It just keeps on going down or this might be the buying opportunity of a lifetime. Any ideas anybody?

It's a high risk share! One would be wise to only put money in that one is not averse to losing. Having said that if it came good, one could make a lot of money. I'm long on these but would certainly like to see some change of direction in the share price!!

I think that there may finally be hope for this Company. Smooth talking Mike Neville,(chairman), has not been making so many "enthusiastic" statements since the reverse takeover.

Good grief ! the bid has moved up to 1.5p ! is this the start of an upward trend or a false dawn ? Hope it's the start of the recovery..... :)

My few pennies that I put in for fun are starting to look interesting.

Hmmm, 23% UP today.

Anyone know why?

I wonder if it will last this time.

Good grief ! the bid has moved up again to 1.75p ! Wow ! is this the start of an upward trend or a false dawn ? Hope it's the start of the recovery...who knows !.. :)

Now at 2.38p and a lot of buying going on.
Is it a takeover?

Wow ! gone up 31% today..... long may it continue... not sure why... lots of rumours flying around. may be alot of speculation only. be interesting to see if there's anything substantial behind this or if this will go back down if there's no news forthcoming..:)

skyhigh
what rumors have you heard?

Only from other BBs (adven) vague rumours of new director buying stock & perhaps WTV being subject of a bid... probably nothing in it and just pure speculation. will most likel come to nothing and it will all fizzle out !(imho)

But.. I hope the upside continues... :)

UP another 25% today

I'm astounded at the rise, now I wish that I had put more in :-)

alas the small reverse....
down 10%

UP 22% so far today

More more more, keep on rising !

Something is happening behind the scenes !

Looking good at last ! Will it last ? What's going on ?

Must be a big contract I suppose.

Apologies for cut and paste from iii bb

Re: re:dizzy heights

GlobalNomad

I succumbed day before yesterday and bought a few more..

like i said not enough to average down too much but it is looking more likely at least in the short term that i can recover a little more. I will continue to keep as close an eye as possible ( still have to work as well!!) for fear of a sudden turn around.

Rumours are one thing, what we need is some confirmation of whats causing the interest or more acurately what is going to support the renewed interest.

A Rumour at the moment, possibly a new contract. Check out ADvfn board, going balistic

No results have been issued except shortly after the takeover and change to the name World TV. Since, a lot of things moved internally to this company. Now as a result of the combined profits from the old World TV Ltd (before the merger), the cost savings and restructuring since, and the profits of Rorke Investments, this company should be publishing some good results soon. Turning a company that was running at a strong loss a year ago into a fairly profitable one with some good contracts going.

I believe this share has the potential to go up a lot more still over the next few months and that the current rise may party be due to the coming financial results.

Hi, I thought there were no scheduled results until May?

Mike

Their results are due 21 April. I'm looking forward to it.

Kokey,
How do you know it's 21Apr ?
Do you have any thoughts as to what the results will look like ?

Could be surprisingly good!

or surprisingly bad :-)

I shall keep watching & be ready to buy but won't risk much on this one.

Well, 21April has gone by and no results yet.. Will they be released today ? Monday who knows.?

Will they be disaster or excellent ? who knows ?

Anyone got any news & views ?

WTV attracting attention on the advfn BB... it's getting intersting. We should get some news/results soon. this story can only get better. imo

Hmmmm, showing signs of life again.

Last yr I think the old company (VTB) released their results on 24th May.. perhaps things are hotting up a bit in the run up to announcing latest set of results.. should make for interesting reading...
(although needs to do a lot more to earn the "hot" tab)

just had a quick look at their web site news,

17.05.05

World Television has been honoured with six awards at two key prize ceremonies in the USA the 2005 Videographer Awards and the US International Film and Video Festival.

World Television received two first prizes (Awards of Excellence) at the Videographer Awards. The first, a BP production, Performance in Perspective (PiP) is a quarterly programme targeted at employees which summarises and explains the companys financial results, combined with the impact on staff. The English version of PiP is completed two days after the results announcement and can be viewed at desktops on BP World (BPs Intranet). Three days later it is webcast in 6 different languages and is also distributed on DVD. PiP has repeatedly beaten its quarterly viewership targets and now reaches over 50,000 employees worldwide in 6 languages.

Then Business of Development also received an Award of Excellence in the programming category. Business of Development, broadcast on CNBC, is the worlds first television series dedicated to the links between sustainable development and business issues. The series profiles businesses who are actively involved in developing regions and has featured companies such as Hewlett Packard, GSK and Pfizer. Honourable mentions at the Videographer Awards were also given to two other World Television productions - Reuters Living Fast and another BP project, OneBP Invision.
At the US International Film & Video Festival, World Television won both second and third prizes in the employee oriented category. Second prize (The Silver Screen Award) was given to OneBP Invision, a twice-yearly presenter-led magazine style programme shot entirely on location and featuring reports from throughout this huge global organisation. As with PiP, this programme is made available to all BP staff via the Intranet and on multi-language DVD. Third prize in the same category was awarded to Reuters Living Fast. This follows the recent Award of Excellence this production received at the 2005 Communication in Business (CiB) corporate video awards.

Jon King, CEO, World Television comments: Were delighted to receive these awards and it is a testament to both the enormous creativity throughout the Group as well as the excellent ongoing relationships we have established with our clients.

UP 13.21% so far today but don't get too excited, it needs another 15% to push through the spread.

Global Nomad, their website news doesn't look like sufficient reason so I wonder why.

Contract Win

World Television Group is delighted to announce that the UK Government's Foreign
and Commonwealth Office has announced its intention, subject to contract, to
award the British Satellite News (BSN) contract to World Television.

This contract, expected to run from October 2005, is for three years with a
further two year option period. There will be an uplift in value to fund
additional news story production compared with the previous contract. World
Television has been providing this service for BSN under a previous contract
which expires on 30 September 2005. The new contract was won against strong
competition from leading broadcast news providers following a demanding tender
process.

The BSN service provides daily news stories about Britain to around 440
broadcasters around the world, 5 days a week, 52 weeks a year. It is one of the
world's most successful public diplomacy news services.

Jon King, Group CEO, says 'This confirms World Television as one of the premier
news producers in the world. We provide the highest quality editorial and
technical service for the Foreign and Commonwealth Office which meets their
communication objectives and the needs of global broadcasters. Winning this
major contract is testament to the talent, production excellence and hard work
of our team. We look forward to the development of the BSN service in the
future.'

Hooray ! some good news at last ! (well sort of) Let's hope the SP gradually recovers from the current lows.... :)

not quiet the gradual recovery we were hoping for!!!!! 33% in a morning..

lets hope it is at least sustainable, averaged down a little this morning, a bit late, but should help....trying to get it back to 6p to come good and reward the patience...

GN

Well, I'll settle for the "gradual" recovery now taking place..... I need it to get to 3.5p before I'm in profit.... I sold half my holding at about 6p before it bombed out. wish I sold it all back then... but... anyway it's looking much better now. hope to see good interims with good trading statement etc., :)

here here

Interims about 6 weeks away now and they should confirm their goal of profits at year end in the outlook.

only large buys this morning....1.12m buys in only 7 trades, no sells...looking good (or at least better!)

We should see a period of strength as they have talked about making profits, the results statement will be hoped to be positive so a lot of buys should come in into the lead up to this.

hAS ANYBODY HEARD THE RUMOURS ABOUT A BUYOUT?

No, how about you tell us.

Rumours are Thompson are interested and about 5p. Could be just a ramp.

I have heard its a done deal, market today seems to confirm this, very, very interesting

look at this post from World television expert gordgeko off A D V F N

Chaps, as a lot of you know I have followed this share for 5 years.

I must say what is happening in the IR space at present is really exciting, what where competitors of WTV 12/18 months ago have now been swallowed up by the goliath THOMSON.

After watching the trading recently particularly Friday, I am convinced the MM's are filling a large order.

Have any of you thought for a second that at any time WTV could be in play?

Look at this, read page 51 last paragraph top section of the page:

http://www.thomson.com/cms/assets/pdfs/corporate/millennia.pdf

I am convinced WTV will be bought out in 2005 and recent events with netvision have only confirmed this for me. The fact that they are about to turn a profit only add to my belief of a bid some time soon.

Thomson's Netvision news release:

http://www.thomson.com/common/view_news_release.jsp?body_include=press_room/news_releases/financial/2005_08_22_Thomson_Acquires_neTVisionion=financial&secondary=pr_market_group&tertiary=financial&subsection=pressroom&title=%0A%0AThomson_Acquires_neTVision_in_Germany%0A%0A

The fact that our Directors hold key shareholdings only fuels my excitement. We can relax knowing we will not be sold on the cheap.

Also, remember the share juggling a few weeks back between the two founders?

Any views on this or am I barking up the wrong tree? Surely WTV would be the icing on the cake for THOMSON in Europe as well as having a perfect synergy in the asia pacific regions.

Something is happening, I can feel it in my water.

Out of interest in 2004 THOMSON made $120million a month

;-)))

Can anybody think of another possible suitor?

GG

iT DOES MAKE YOU WONDER???????????

Thank you for that ffi.

The rumours still doing the rounds but there seems to be so little volume being traded, so I have my doubts and feel it could be just another false call.

Best not to raise one's hopes ! (long time WTV holder)

check this out off A D V F N


This was posted a few weeks ago, but I notice WTV haven't declared WELLA a new client, this seems to be some type of online training for hairdressers

http://cdn.world-television.com/Wella/292/o0017/de/html/frameset.html?browser=IE&streamTech=wm&streamQuality=300&streamFormat=video&ticket=290$292$2575&bcStatus=ondemand

It is very interesting as it shows the quality of the WTV production methods as well as the quality of its delivery platform.

It looks like there is a different type of training each month this year, so thats a new video production each month, that must be a fair few pennies, add the fact that WELLA are selling the DVD's, which WTV will more than likely supply and we are laughing.

Has anyone heard anything about the Thomson/WTV buyout rumours?

I notice they will announce results for first half on 30th September. The market has not been informed, however this date is stated on world-television.com website.

Bizpack... thanks for this... lets hope 30th Sept is the date and that we get some excellent news... and more importantly the market likes it and marks it up strongly.
Been in this one a long time and need it to do well. All my other holdings are doing crap at the moment..

After todays results it looks like we are on the right track at nearly break even & should possibly hit a marginal profit by year end. Sales shwoing 7% growth.

luchan.

I reckon 250k profit for the next results (imho). Might as well be optimistic...dream on. anyway I think it's encouraging at long last!

World Television Launches Expanded British Satellite News Service

World Television, the corporate communications, news production, webcasting and
event management company, is pleased to announce the launch of a new expanded
British Satellite News (BSN) service following the renewal of its contract with
the UK Government's Foreign & Commonwealth office (FCO).

The contract, worth approximately #1.5m p.a., will run for three years from
October 2005 with a further two year extension option period.

In response to demand from broadcasters for more content, World Television has
built on the existing offering by increasing output by 50 per cent Monday to
Thursday and by introducing an in-depth, ten-minute feature every Friday
focussing on specific news-related subjects.

A newly redeveloped website (www.bsn.org.uk) is available in both English and
Arabic and provides an enhanced offering featuring streaming video. This will
enable programme producers to select stories by viewing them at their desktops
alongside script information and other related reports.

BSN is currently used by over 450 broadcasters across Europe, Africa, the Middle
East and South East Asia. The new service will strive to achieve greater
penetration in core areas such as the Arabic speaking regions.

Steve Garvey, CEO, World Television Group said: "I am delighted BSN has decided
to extend their service offering and am confident that, through the combination
of increased output and the application of World Television's technologies, BSN
will build on its significant successes to date. BSN is designed to serve
broadcasters' needs and World Television will continue to innovate our offering
to ensure it does so."

BSN Editor Mike Nolan said, "We are enormously proud to be continuing with the
BSN service. It is now becoming a prime source of news and information about
Britain to many broadcasters and we are confident of recruiting even more
television stations to the service."

looks like this share is at least trying to head in the right direction, not convinced that there is any steam behind it yet...good to hear news not hype...a bit more and it should be more convincing...gaining new clients is always a better sign than hanging onto existing ones(though clearly you don't want to loose them) lets see some news on that.
GN

Has it reached its floor and is this the time to be bottom fishing.
Very little news published by WTV in recent months other than the back Tax that could be claimed. They also claim that they should be able to meet these costs with a payment plan. Maybe the market has taken all this into account now.

I see a brokers note is available on the world-television.com site under IR, that takes the Tax issue into account.

It seems as though they are very undervalued at present.

World Television agrees to sell Foroso

World Television, the international televisual communications company, today
announces that it has agreed to dispose of the Company's webconferencing
subsidiary Foroso Communications GmbH ('Foroso').

Following a detailed strategic review of the business, the Directors of World
Television have concluded that Foroso and its web conferencing products are not
a core part of the group's strategy going forwards, due in the main to the
increasing commoditisation of these services, and are therefore pleased to reach
an agreement with members of the existing management team of Foroso. Foroso's
Meeting Centre and Training Centre will continue to operate as normal and
without interruption.

Four of the original founders of Foroso (Peter Pock, Elmar Merget, Kristof
Nast-Kolb and Ingrid Buchenberger) will take ownership of the company from 1
January 2006. World Television will receive a 20% share of revenues in 2006 and
2007. World Television will also receive all of the proceeds of any sale of the
business before 30 June 2006, up to a maximum of 680,000, and 20% of any
subsequent sale until 31 December 2015.

Foroso is currently unprofitable and has struggled to reach profitability since
it was acquired by the Company in May 2004, due to falling margins and intense
competition. Foroso revenues in 2005 are expected to be under 150,000.

Steve Garvey, CEO of World Television, said: 'Working with the management of
Foroso, we have reviewed our options regarding the business and it is clear that
Foroso no longer fits within the group. Since the enlarged World Television was
created in August 2004, the Company's range of services has increased
significantly. Foroso sells its services to a different kind of customer, its
products are not televisual and there are few synergies between it and rest of
the Company. I believe we will generate faster growth by concentrating on our
core business of televisual communications services while ensuring our
shareholders get value from Foroso in future. I wish the new owners every
success.'

Thats a bit more good news from the company. At least the 20% will be pure profit, even though its a small amount.

From the time the brokers note was issued, it would seem they are intent on putting out news on a regular basis now. I assume because they now only have good news going forward.

Must be a hot tip for 2006.

There is also a little bad news as I read it. But looking at TA more promising than previous FDs.

For Immediate Release 2 December 2005

World Television Group Plc
("World Television" or "the Company")

Tax assessment relating to 1999-2000 and 2000-2001

World Television has been advised by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) in the UK
that it holds the Company liable for unpaid employers' National Insurance
contributions (NIC) relating to the exercise of share options by ex-employees of
Tornado Group plc (now called World Television) at the time of its flotation in
March 2000.

Tornado Group plc made payments for both PAYE and NIC at the time of the
flotation but the HMRC assessment disputes the calculation and states that the
deductions were insufficient to meet the liability. HMRC calculates that the
Company's liability amounts to 182,619 which includes the original unpaid NIC
and interest from the date of exercise to the beginning of November 2005, but
excludes penalty charges.

Furthermore, HMRC has informed the Company that it holds the Company liable for
unpaid PAYE contributions in respect of the same employees and the same
transaction. HMRC's initial assessment of PAYE due is 312,480, excluding
interest and penalties.

The Company has appealed against the assessment of NIC and PAYE and the appeal
process is expected to last at least several weeks. If the assessment is found
to be correct, the Company will not be required to make any payments to HMRC
until the appeal process has been completed, which the Directors expect to be
next year.

The Company will defend vigorously its position and seek to recover unpaid PAYE
and other related charges from the former employees in question. The Company has
copies of signed agreements from the employees indemnifying the Company for all
taxation, including PAYE and employees' NIC Class 1, relating to the options.
The process of contacting the said employees, all of whom have now left the
Company, has already begun. The Company is also investigating possible means of
recovery of any penalties and interest relating to unpaid employers' NIC.

The Directors have considered the impact of a successful claim by HMRC on its
cash position and intend to negotiate a payment plan with HMRC. The Directors
believe that on this basis the Company will have the resources to make the
necessary payments.

The Directors believe that any liability ultimately falling due following HMRC's
assessment has no connection with any employee currently employed by the
Company, and is not related to the performance of the current management team.
Moreover the Directors are taking all appropriate steps to ensure that any
resulting liability will not impact the Company's trading performance and its
ability to achieve its strategic goals.

The Directors remain confident that the Company's strategy will continue to
deliver growth and progress towards our goal of profitability in 2006.

The Board expects to make a provision for the overall liability in the final
accounts for the year ending 31 December 2005, based on the information
available at the time. The Directors will inform shareholders of any material
developments as they emerge.

The sellers were out today taking profits from 1p level seen a couple of weeks ago.

I would expect the recent brokers note to support a bounce back very soon now that these possible T traders have taken the short term 10% profit.

Is nobody interest in this media business that has offices as far afield as Australia and New Zealand?

Yeh but no but yeh !
We're all bored that nothung sensational is happening for the moment.. We need mega news and mega SP rise... then we might start to get excited.
A lot of us are still sitting on losses from a couple of years ago when the sp was 4-6p!

skyhigh, Have you been holding all that time?

No stops in? Sorry to hear your out of pocket.

A bit of chit chat around the office suggests that some exciting news is not far off.

Good time to bring your average down I think, as they are trading at a good discount.

Low volume suggests few sellers and upside is not far away.The rewards could be at least 75% the short term.

I am adding as cash becomes available at not more than 1.25p

This is one of the rumours that came down the grapevine.

It should get exciting and quickly move back towards its former levels of 3p

Rumour of the day


AIM-listed World Television, valued at 7 million, ticked up 0.03p to 1p on talk that it has won a three-year contract from the European Space Agency after a competitive tender. The deal, running until the end of 2008, is thought to cover the provision of broadcast media relations services for the agency around the world, including launches and its work relating to the international space station.

Looking at the current charts I would think anybody buying this share at the moment would be barmy. If you had bought higher, sorry, probably hold if it is only a small holding. Have a look at the recent fundamentals in detail and latest news reports I wouldn't touch them.

I could be wrong, but I watch at a distance. There are better proespect in the market place.

Don't fall in love with a share you are holding.

I disagee with your comments not out of love with this or any other stock but on the basis of research.

First thier was the brokers note putting a discounted value to market of 1.4p, since that a deal with prnewswire, now "if true" this three year contract.

I think they have done the ground work and are about to get a lot more great contracts.

This is the Eumetsat Launch.

Cool !... long way to go but....

So the rumour was spot on. A lot more work could come from this contract.

Talk around the office also suggests that other bigger contracts are about to be reported, so it should got a lot higher and very fast once it breaks out above 1.3p

This was 7p not that long ago.

Still cool ! I got in 2 yrs ago at 3p,,, sold half at 6p some while ago...it's looking good to get back to 6/7p in next 6 months (I reckon)

Skyhigh, I think 6/7 is a bit far out..get real 3p is on the cards although I notice a fair bit of selling today. T traders ?

Whisper in the pub is that another contract is to be posted from the other side of the world in the next day or so.

I have just noticed they have updated thier website with webcasts that they have done.

Having been surprised at the fall in the shareprice since the news of new contracts and it was suggested to me that the New Top Dog appointed last year and the FD maybe about to buy a several million shares while they are so depressed.

When you look at the level of discount they are at 1p to the recent Brokers Note that values them at 1.4p at a discount at that to the sector, then it would be on the cards.

I wish I had more funds at this time to place into wtv and average down but still like to be safe and keep my funds in more liquid stocks than this.

I have bought in at a higher level than this, so maybe I am wrong and should have kept away from them as I now need them to be at least 1.25 to cover my costs before I make a profit.

Results around June, so its going to be a long wait unless a good trading statement is made sooner.

thanks for keeping the board going biz,

unfortunately my breakeven is much higher and I would benefit more from averaging down, but like you I am without funds. I would in any case feel a little reluctanct until the picture cleared some more.....the discount to the sector is apparently for a reason....and the discount to the note reflects peoples hesitance/doubts....I await to be reassured....

as you said an update / statement would be welcome.

GN

Thanks Global Nomad for airing your views. I took a look at the WTV website this evening and noticed they have put up a list of dates for results and said they will make a trading statement on 23rd Feb.

I also see the are going to do a pre recorded webcast with results. Thats good news as well.

At least we do not have to guess at dates that they might or might not update investors. I like businesses that have consideration for private investors and give a regular flow of news on thier websites as do WTV.

I only hope it comes good for me in the long term and you guys/girls get your money back and make a profit with luck, as I see they were down again today.

Good time to buy me thinks!

Skyhigh there is talk on other BB's of it moving upto 5p in the next 6 months. I am not holding yet. LOL

I'm staying with WTV as I got in 2yrs ago at 3.25p.... some way to go to recover but I'm sure we'll get there eventually !

Home early today, just checked trades and it looks promising..Wish, I had more cash.

Tell us more please Troy,which BB`s

Try A.D.V.F.N

Its turned out to be a real dog for me, so let us hope the trading statement that I see from the wtv website is does on 23rd changes the picture. It would be nice to see some T traders start buying this in the coming week as well.

one can at this stage only hope......

Just started to move higher today.

why's that ? and how long wil it last for ?...anyone know ?
(usually falls back after a little tick up)

Didn't today. Maybe the seller has finished.

I see the trading statement did nothing for this dog that I got myself into.

I was please to see the CEO buying new shares for 1p which is above the present market price.

I think it will come good in time. I have noticed the bigger trades of late and they seem to be buys.

skyhigh, you were correct I see.

I am tempted to sell a few others to switch into this and average down. Any views.

As this is rock bottom already... I'm staying in for the long term... for better for worse (in other words, I've no idea whats going to happen)

Skyhigh it looks to me that a big increase in volume has taken place over the past few weeks. In the past, I have noticed that this sort of pattern happens a few weeks before news of contracts or stake building.

I would not now be surprised to see a quick return to the level that I bought in at last year. I have looked at trade history and seen the much larger slices changing hands, several million trades, buys at that.

In view that one of the directors purchased new shares @ 1p, I think they must be very undervalued at this time.

Brewins are also saying this was a buy at 0.97p and now they are saying its a very strong buy, adding to the information (contract news)from the company website, all the news looks positive.

I can now see this becoming a 2p share before very long and maybe 4p by the end of the year. I am happy to hold even though they have fallen since I last made a purchase.

I only hope that they start to inform the stock market of any new contracts as they sign them, so to attract more investor awareness.

Has anybody noticed the big movement this morning.

At last, its going upwards.

usually falls back after a little tick up.... let's see if it's different this time... got a feeling it might be !

Skyhigh, In view of the sudden increase in volumes and the size of the trades, it seems to me as though there was a seller that has finished selling, while at the same time the buyer that has been picking up blocks of 250k - 1 million is still building a stake.

We have yet to hear of any new 3% stakes but it could be coming soon.

As far as I can see the shareprice is following the trend line DOWN.
The increasing volume appears on the sell side.

I think I would need a lie down if I bought this one!!!!

Fred1new, it would seem skyhigh was correct again, still I live in hope. Maybe its just investors closing out thier losses for the year.

With luck, the company will announce improving sales and contract wins. It could be that they are holding onto news until the end of April, along with the figures on the 27th. I`ll hold for now and add if they come out with any good news using a little cash I have made in recent weeks.

Why buy or sell against the trend???

There are far better possibilities in the market.

Fred1new

It is often buying against the trend that results in the greatest rewards.

At what point would you say the trend has changed with WTV, and what or whom changes trends before others notice the change?

Should you be investing in small AIM stocks, if you are not looking for big rewards.

Volume has been very low of late and selling seems to have almost stopped as I expect most CTG sales have already ceased. These same sellers could well be about to pile back in to the likes of WTV very soon.

On the www:world-television.com website news section is notice of another award they have been given.

I also found the Electrolux video gave a very positive message.

Still, only one month to wait to see how strong the growth has been since the last trading statement.

big rise yesterday.

any ideas as to why. Is some news imminent. Is everyone sticking these in their ISA before tomorrow? lol

Buying against the previous trend now looks good Fred.

On the company website you will find the reasons for the jump in the share price.

Expect it to go much higher as it attracts ISA investment.

We will see.

Hi all just noticed this thread on WTV also. Appologies for starting a new one. Happy to ditch the thread I started if everyone posting here is in agreement or vice versa so please advise. Thankyou...

Thought I would try this thread to see if anyone is still around. This last week there seems to have been more buying than selling but the sp has remained at new lows.

Any bottom fishers interested?

Will more businesses turn to webcasting with the problems encountered at Heathrow/Gatwick etc?

Still here, nothing new going on with WTV, we seam to have grinded to a halt. Have noticed some bargains in the sp also, may take up some more but all the time theres no news or activity investors slip away so could well fall even lower.

How low can it go?

Looks like this is the bottom.

Looks like this is the bottom.

Is that a double bottom ?

Looks like this has turned the corner at last!

would any PI's who can pledge support to an action group with good evidence please email names and holdings to wtvaction@gmail.com

thanks

more details are found on advfn.com

the SAG is being managed by Peter Hagerty an ex 3% holder with significant market experience, he believes there is a case, as many others do

This could turn out to be a multi bagger for those buying today.

Have the regulators no shame?

Suggest a read of posting 84,90 and 119. Might save a few a few bob or two, next time a share is ramped.

Well done the SAG.
See today`s news, that The Takeover Panel are investigating.


I guess this is the start of a long fight but a great start for this SAG.

I very much doubt anything will come of the action group or any other patition. I think eveyone knew the risk on this one, lesson learnt sometimes large investors hinder not add to a company in this case. Move on I say, no point letting other potentials slip past investigating what could have been. With this and SEO on my portfolio I am heavily sunk in the red. This will be by far my worst year on record as I am sure will be for others. I doubt I'll post here again, it would cost me more on trading fees to sell then my shares are worth so will go down with the ship and receive whatever I get. Best of luck to you all, no doubt we'll share a profit or two on happier threads.

I'm confused...Why are peoples still buying when it's going to be delisted and more difficult to trade/sell ?

This is the first time explosive, I have ever seen the takeover panel make any AIM company issue such a statement after pressure from investors.

Looking at the trades today, it seems to me there must be those that think this action group are in with more than a chance.

Fingers crossed Bizpak however I won't hold my breath... Someones confident buying up the surplus.... Maybe just the main shareholders hammering in the final nails.....

well , well , well....just look at this rns..proof that an action group can have an effect

but the war is not won yet please visit our website and pledge your support
wtvaction@gmail.com

thanks - John

good result today people but we still need more support and your votes at the AGM

please head across to the site www.wtvaction.org

What a change in just two days GGekkko.

If the company now announced that they now had no intention of de-listing following investor concern, this would at the very least double again.

Quite interesting this.

The panel phoned me last night to tell me of the ruling, and to ask that details were not released on message boards or communicated to the press pending our appeal. Since we had already given written notice of our intention to appeal the ruling and discussed this on several occasions with the panel executive (it may surprise you, but as we understand it the panel itself has not yet met to consider this - only the "executive" to reconsider their own actions), we agreed to this and kept all discussions with the panel confidential in order to prevent misleading releases to shareholders.

For the record the panel also told me last night that releases made by the company were "wrong" and made "without the consent of the panel" - ie. the releases saying that conversion of shares would require the majority consent of independent shareholders. This will now be the subject of legal action by the shareholders, subject to the decision of the Action Group committee.

We advised the panel that we would continue to deal with them confidentially on condition that the company respected the same rules and no announcement was made that would or could mislead the market.

So, for the record THERE HAS NOT YET BEEN A FORMAL PANEL HEARING - which we REQUESTED IN WRITING ON 1st MAY. There will be an appeal, and until the appeal is heard properly (and we are going to request that it is heard in public) the announcement by the company is STILL SUBJECT TO BEING CHANGED, just as it has been once already.

I see that on the wtvaction website an appeal dated of 4 July 2007 has been posted. I take it that is the date that has been set for the formal panel hearing.

Is it in public?

Will the press be there?

Can other smalll investors in other stocks turn up to let these regulators know that it is about time they put a stop to these AIM companies treating small investors as trash?

It has been going on all over the market, and it is about time that everyone stood up to be counted, as it could be you that could be hit next.
