by the way 016622, look at the trades in YOO immediately after the close. interesting.

iPublic - 24 May 2005 17:33 - 1281 of 3776

Just goes to the prove the market, institutions and private investors have not done their homework on Yoomedia, not even a tick up when the announcement came about William Hill buying Stanley- another 500 + outlets to get people used to channel 425 - surely deserved a nudge up on that based upon Yoomedia's partnership with William Hill.

Pokerzone TV - one of the fastest growing areas of gambling, Yoomedia heading for a big presence.

Most important of all - look at the 3 year chart for Sportingbet - during that time a range of 20p - 315p - now holding steady at 275p range ???. as DTV gambling starts to take over from the internet - watch Sportingbet drop - I would definately take the profits now - just wish I had bought when they came on the scene with the original Yoomedia deal - 42p - was half tempted, but had everything spare in Yoomedia.

In my opinion - we have a company that is going to be in a position with less competition than Sportingbet in its chosen field - and will almost certainly within the next 3 - 5 years, be a takeover target, which will only be afforded by the likes of BSKYB or ITV, we are already ahead of Sportingbet in the DTV gaming and gambling arena - do none of the mother fucke*s out there realise that DTV gaming and gambling in the UK is going to be far bigger than the internet gaming and gambling scene in the next few years - all of the hardcore gamblers have access to a TV - not all have a PC ???? - PC is ahead at the moment, because up untill DTV in the last 12 months, that was all that was avaialble outside of the Casino's and Bookies - it will all change soon, and being a partner with William Hill was a far better move than the orginal what was going to be partnership with Sportingbet on DTV - how many outlets do Sportingtbet have on the high street - that is right, NIL.

There is no reason for the SP to be where it is, much more of a slip, and we could see a MBO - hope this is not the case, as we will all be sold short - if it is going to happen, it will happen before the interims, because when they are announced, this will start to confirm the upside - from there we will see more rises, of that I am sure. Sinclair and Docherty, know what an easy ride they have ahead of them, this company will be making monopoly money profits in the not too distant future - it will not be long before they get a main primetime slot of their own, they now have the production company in ViaVision to make programmes, and as we know, they will not have to rely on third parties for the technology to go interactive - once they are producing and broadcasting in house, that will be the end for the outsiders such as Celador - of that I am sure - why let Celador have the lions share, when they have it all !!!!! Producing and managing our own primetime shows!!!

Don't forget the large director buys recently--that's always a good indication of faith in their company. I added a few today.

016622 - 25 May 2005 08:18 - 1283 of 3776

yes, intersting AH,
I too hope youre barking up the wrong tree with a mb ip...

mactavish - 25 May 2005 10:09 - 1284 of 3776

2* 500,000 buys just went thru'. One is a "T" trade other one "M" trade.

hewittalan6 - 25 May 2005 10:13 - 1285 of 3776

Aint got a clue what "T" & "M" trades are but it's all buys today, so where is the upwards pressure on sp?
Alan

016622 - 25 May 2005 10:22 - 1286 of 3776

timed trade and market makers buy

hewittalan6 - 25 May 2005 10:34 - 1287 of 3776

thanks for that. never was very good at the technical aspects of this game.
as i said before, almost all my trading is based on gut instinct, and watching which products sell through which shops, what new stuff are the guys at the pub talking about etc.
none the poorer for that though!!!
Alan

moneyplus - 25 May 2005 10:36 - 1288 of 3776

plenty of big buys but no move up in sp---frustrating or what!!!

016622 - 25 May 2005 10:39 - 1289 of 3776

yes mp - itchingly frustrating but evo must have a wheelbarrow or two of stock to get rid of and until this is shifted and we get some re-assuring figures from the company then I suppose there wont be much upward movement??

mactavish - 25 May 2005 10:51 - 1290 of 3776

It is the AGM today started at 10am.

moneyplus - 25 May 2005 10:53 - 1291 of 3776

hewittalan6 - 25 May 2005 10:55 - 1292 of 3776

016622 - 25 May 2005 11:02 - 1293 of 3776

cavman - 25 May 2005 11:03 - 1294 of 3776

"...and we could see a MBO"

mactavish - 25 May 2005 11:08 - 1296 of 3776

hewittalan6 - 25 May 2005 11:29 - 1297 of 3776

Alan

016622 - 25 May 2005 11:39 - 1298 of 3776

trades between market makers...
I know bog all but it could be something like evo have mammoth surplus of stock, another mm is a little short and buys some off evo
???
I stand to be corrected of course!
