What's happening with this share price today? Buys outweigh sells but a 10% drop. I just topped up at 11.75p (though am slightly nervous in case something unpleasant is in the pipeline to explain all this).

016622 - 24 May 2005 14:45 - 1259 of 3776

it seems to be all the way down with this one
McTavish posts a lot of info, EWR's gone quiet and I'm beginning or maybe continuing to think that theres better fish to fry...

hewittalan6 - 24 May 2005 14:52 - 1260 of 3776

buying opportunity IMO
Alan

016622 - 24 May 2005 14:54 - 1261 of 3776

anything to substantiate that alan?
was thinking same myself and there certainly is an increase in activity...

hewittalan6 - 24 May 2005 15:01 - 1262 of 3776

Nothing concrete I'm afraid. At the risk of being called a ramper (see SEO thread) I just have one of those gut feelings that this company is a right product, right place, right time type. That and having read interviews with the boss, he seems a focused type that will make it big.
Given the area of operations I feel that this stock will either grow as its turnover (not necessarily profits) rise, acquire voraciously or be gobbled up by another media mogul. Whichever way is a win for holders at this price!!
All instinct gobbldygook I'm afraid but I find it works for me as well as hours pouring over accounts and RNS.

I agree with you Hewitt...I think Yoo will make it big time but it is a question of when and waiting it out.

016622 - 24 May 2005 15:10 - 1264 of 3776

works for me hewiit/dyna I'll book another 20k
(having one of my better days today, GRI)

hewittalan6 - 24 May 2005 15:13 - 1265 of 3776

In similar vein to a message I left on the SEO thread, we should decide if we are traders or investors. I am the latter and I invest for long term growth, not short term gain. If you are the kind of investor who hits the buy or sell button every time the price fluctuates then you are really a trader or an investor who should be looking at mid to large caps and not these penny shares. I think YOO will be mid cap eventually, by one of the routes mentioned above but if drops like this panic you, get out and come back in when the company is more mature. The rewards will not be as great but the risks won't either. Isn't that the deal and the first lesson we all learned?

016622 - 24 May 2005 15:25 - 1266 of 3776

fair point...trader or very green trader anyway....
I've got to try and build some capital before I can leave it lying around (invested)

moneyplus - 24 May 2005 15:25 - 1267 of 3776

absolutely right--and I feel the rewards will be well worth waiting for!!

hewittalan6 - 24 May 2005 15:29 - 1268 of 3776

I have little enough capital too, but I take the opposite view. It takes either a large amount of capital or a large swing to make the dealing costs and taxes negligable on your profit, so I choose companies I expect to give a good return in the medium term and leave the money there. A good company doesn't become a bad one in an afternoon, and I'm too damn tight to pay brokers all the time for dipping in and out!! I can hear you now. Typical bloody Yorkshireman (LOL).
Hope you did get in at the low cos I think this share seems to dip late morning and early afternoon every day, before rebounding prior to the close. We'll see if I'm right (there's a first time for everything!!)
Alan

mactavish - 24 May 2005 15:35 - 1269 of 3776

Big delayed sell just went thru', should be reason for drop.

hewittalan6 - 24 May 2005 15:38 - 1270 of 3776

Just checked the historical charts for YOO and, interestingly enough, they seem to drop off dramtically through spring/early summer and rise vertically in the run up to the interims in September for the last 2 years. Maybe there is something in that. Most small companies share price is news driven and YOO lack the news flow required to keep it stable? May be other reasons and I might be talking crap, but I still think it has a long way to run.

016622 - 24 May 2005 15:40 - 1271 of 3776

bought some more...its certainly seeing some action today

hewittalan6 - 24 May 2005 15:43 - 1272 of 3776

Fingers crossed for both of us then, 016622. It may not be today but I am happy to have got more.
By the way, any relation to 118 118?
Alan

016622 - 24 May 2005 15:47 - 1273 of 3776

fraid knot alan...

squidd - 24 May 2005 16:17 - 1274 of 3776

hewittalan: Agree with you on charting. But in addition, it has come up on my 'bottom fishers' radar, because of significant director buys at a low point.
Director L Noe has recently spent 130k for 1M shares so we could now get aboard at a lower price.
Good fishing, sd.

hewittalan6 - 24 May 2005 16:20 - 1275 of 3776

bottom fisher kind of sums me up in more ways than you could ever imagine!! 8-))

016622 - 24 May 2005 16:37 - 1276 of 3776

cor blimey!

hewittalan6 - 24 May 2005 16:41 - 1277 of 3776

but not that way!!!!
