I bought shares in this company at 4.5p in September 2003. I see they are rising. Can anyone tell me please the growth potential for this company as they have just been awarded several new contracts ?

Considering the tech rally. Volume on the buy side has been very disappointing in the last few days. Retail investors appear to be giving cms the cold shoulder at present, they got ignored during the offer. Institution have had there slice. Like it or not it is the retail investors that will support the share until it becomes of sufficient size for the institution to be bothered with.

Is it not the case that people are waiting for the next bit of news (be it positive or negative) about the company to see whether the planned campaign in the States is likely to be a success? It has been silence since the new year and the volumes have consequently been low.

CMS WebView signs five new corporate clients for ProphetX

Premier Chocolate Products, a leading UK manufacturer and supplier of chocolate
and cocoa-based ingredients and David Cater Limited, a UK-based physical
commodity broker, are two of the five new corporate clients to subscribe to
ProphetX in December 2003. ProphetX is the market price display system for
commodity and energy traders sold under exclusive licence in the UK by market
data systems specialist CMS WebView plc ("CMS").

With the addition of the latest five companies, this means that 20 corporate
clients have now subscribed to the ProphetX service since July 2003 when CMS
began fully marketing the product in the UK. In addition, a growing number of
private traders are also signing up for ProphetX terminals.

ProphetX is a professional real-time market display and analysis product that
has been developed by US company DTN Market Access. Typically priced at #200 per
month per terminal, it has already proved popular in the US, selling over 4,000
terminals.

CMS recently raised #2.5 million in new funds from a share placing with
financial institutions. Some of the proceeds of the placing are being used to
accelerate the marketing and sales efforts for the ProphetX system.

Bob Antell, Chief Executive of CMS, said:

"Our corporate clients are using ProphetX to trade energy, agricultural and
tropical commodities. Private clients tend to prefer to use it to trade a range
of financial futures contracts. For a product that we only began to market in
earnest in July, we're very pleased with the level of sales achieved so far,
which have now hit internal targets. With the new money we've just raised, we're
now able to expand our marketing presence in these particular sectors in 2004."

Neil Palmer, Chocolate Account Manager at Premier Chocolate Products, said:

"ProphetX has shown advantages over our previous price display system. The
comprehensive charting features together with the facility to create customised
work books will give us greater flexibility in the way we analyse and record
market data. In addition, ProphetX will allow us to more readily enhance and
tailor information to satisfy customers' individual requirements."

The ProphetX system combines live market data, powerful analytical tools, as
well as up-to-the minute news. ProphetX can be internet-delivered or installed
on a firm's network. As it has been developed for use on standard Microsoft
platforms, users are already familiar with the on-screen environment. Moreover,
the system can be accessed remotely, allowing it to be used when traders are
away from their desks.

END

Thanks Sue and a great development for CWV. I'll try and work out what this means to an upward revision in turnover and profit.

Nice one, Sue I think in one of your earlier posts you said a close above 14(offer) would break the current trend, well we've done that, surely a lot further to go now. Still think 20p is the major hurdle myself!

ps I've been in stream group sea, since last sept, 18p, new high today, you might want to take a look, would be intersted in your analysis?

I will post the updated Investtech analysis based on today's close later on tonight.

Notable LEADERS today included CMS WebView, which rose 11.7% to 14.25p after the company said it has signed five new corporate clients for ProphetX, its real-time market display and analysis product. Premier Chocolate Products, an UK manufacturer and supplier of chocolate and cocoa-based ingredients and David Cater Ltd, an UK-based physical commodity broker, are two of the five new corporate clients to subscribe to ProphetX in December 2003, it said

Great day, and great news. ProphetX isnt the big ticket item but these new contracts are good news for the company. These are recurring revenues and show just how much a big TDI contract win will propel the share price.

If this type of news continues we will soon be saying goodbye to prices in the teens.

20pence will be a key area prior to results.

thestatusquo - Totally agree with your comments, looking extremely encouraging.

Could someone please tell me the date of the results - thanks.

Year ended 30th June past and results came out in September.

So I reckon half year end was 31 December and interims due in March.

Sue can correct me on this if that's not right.

Yes thestatusquo, just to confirm that results should be out in March. Though they have released them in the past in April or May. Will try to get a confirmation date by next week for the date of the results..

Neutral (Short term) - Jan 9, 2004
Has risen 422% since the bottom on 21 Oct 2003 at 2.75. Has broken the ceiling of the falling trend, which indicates a slower initial falling rate. The stock has support at p 10.80 and resistance at p 19.00. Poor liquidity (traded 100% of the days, mean 9.61 mill per day) weakens the analysis.

Neutral (Medium term) - Jan 9, 2004
Has risen 857% since the bottom on 29 Jul 2002 at 1.50. Is within a rising trend and continued advance within the current trend is indicated. On reactions back, there is support against the floor of the trend channel. Has also broken a resistance level in the short term and given a positive signal for the short-term trading range. The stock has support at p 1.55. Poor liquidity (traded 100% of the days, mean 9.61 mill per day) weakens the analysis.

Yes boroboys, have a look at below:

Has also broken a resistance level in the short term and given a positive signal for the short-term trading range.

Have a good weekend everyone.

An RNS disclosing a contract for TDI will send these through the roof and I guess it'll happen sooner or later so basically it's a case of being patient and resisting any temptation to sell.

Absolutely alannlane! The contract announcements up to now are highly encouraging but any big ticket announcements will push the price considerably higher.

The company also has a good geographical spread of revenue sources, Europe and the UK as well as a recovering USA.

Its also a good time to be executing the marketing campaign in the US given the current pound-dollar exchange rate. The 2.5m raised will buy even more advertising that it would prior to Christmas. All looking good for more positive news over the next few months.

Potential upside looks massive, contract wins sure to be regular now, more attention will be given to this share as well in the coming months by big time investors. Extremely pleased to have bought in December and am looking forward to seeing what these bring in the short, medium and long term.

Pound/dollar rate heading for $2/1. Great news for CWV's investment in the USA.

Just a matter of holding tight and waiting for more contracts to start rolling in, definately one of the shares for 2004.
