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 ?

Are you still around.

Results by the end of the month. Contracts announced at same time? I hope so.

Getting close to end of month. No announcement of when results announced. If they don't report by end of month, then will be fined for late submission. I hope it's taking so long because they're still counting all their(our)money. Or there is a hole which they are desperately trying to cover.

Waiting with bated breath.

It's going down to the wire ! Suspense is killing me ! Already showing a 50% loss. So, hope we get some contracts announced or I can see this going down to 2p-ish (imho) Which way is this going to go ?

Like AT77 above >>> "I'm negative, I'm afraid, however I'll keep my fingers crossed anyway" :)

Relax guys, this is yet another cheap, risky stock and you need a bit of pain to appreciate the gain, where else would the buzz come from. Bob Antell (big boss man) was at the Inside Market Data conference on Tuesday and sounded very up beat indeed. I also managed to speak to some of his colleagues who were realistic but optamistic. They know they are a young company and it won't be easy, it's early days. But the general consensus at IMD was that clients have had enough of being held to ransom by Reuters and Bloomberg and need alternatives. Installing direct feeds from suppliers is a popular option and if that route is chosen they need TDI. In short, don't panic and enjoy the ride, unless you've got your house on it, in which case pick less risky stocks

hi bloodhound!

Still hanging in here. Just haven't really had anything different to say on this one.
IMHO a lot of groundwork has been laid, particularly in the USA. Patience required on this one.

:( .... Yet more patience is req'd! Yet another set of crap results and only hoping that contracts will be completed 2nd half of the year.. It's pants and the stock price will dive ! Looks like the SP will go down to 2-3p(imho) It's pants!

However, there is only 3 months left of the 2nd half of the year. So, I'll stay in with what I've got and buy some more in the next month or so when SP has hit rock bottom. When the contracts do get announced the SP will rocket :)(imho,dyor,pyo)

Imho hopeful to sign, means they wont. 2 years cash, almost 18 months since last TDI contract, ProphetX as far as i can make out is dead. Not looking good. Best hope in 12 - 18 months is a takeover.Investors in placing must be livid.

Skyhigh 2-3p is my target before it gets taken over. Excellent product but company hasnt the size or finiancial backing to succeed.Any potential customer will take one look at the company and asks if its going to be around in a few years.

Bad news all round. Can't live on jam tomorrow, I need bread today.

to paraphrase

there is no bread
we are all awaiting cake

Will it have icing on it?

agree chaps! very poor showing! not worth selling at these levels!

trying hard to remain patient.

TSQ.

Can the header be changed for this thread? Something along the lines of 'What is the potential for this share - 2p going on 1p,' or perhaps 'we remain hopeful of signing new customers, but actually have no chance of ever getting any more?'

Yours disgruntled, written off my investment, must be more careful in future!!

PTH, I also bought in for med to long term in the hope of new contracts. This share & my other (ITH) are speculative and rely very much on news. Hence I only look in every few weeks rather than daily. On these kind of shares I have been staying in even when they show losses. Maybe in future I'll use stop losses but I think that would defeat the object of speculative shares. What do other think?

Dipys,

Volatility in this type of share certainly appears to create a problem with stop losses. I suppose you can go one of two routes; except that the SP may fluctuate widly and don't use stop losses, risking your hard earned capital when a share underperforms like CMS or use stop losses, accept a dent may be made in your capital, but still be able to move onto something else. I think it really comes down to personal choice and exactly how much you are willing to lose. I think the hardest aspect of investing is to be disciplined, set targets and acceptable losses then move on whatever the outcome.

Regards

PTH

The other side of the coin is of course, Feeling that after waiting so long the sp has finally turned the corner and the price will rise to the heady levels speculated about. BUT only then see the sp reverse back to a loss and realising that you should have taken a smaller profit and sold rather than hoping for more and more.

How low is this going go ? We must be getting near to the point where it levels out and is then worth a punt ! I reckon about 3.0p-3.5p ? anyone any views ? apart from what a pile a pants this is turning out to be !)
Anyone, besides me, still holding ?
apart from what a pile a pants this is turning out to be )

Sorry, this is double pants !

Skyhigh

I am unfortunately still holding at a much higher level than the current SP, (too embarrassed to say exactly what level!). Probably level out at about 3p, but wouldn't be surprised to see it go lower. Desperately need some good news.

PTH
