RTD - Why? (RTD)     

Nitefly - 15 Sep 2003 10:55

Why are we again at 10.5p bid?

It doesn't add up...

Good Results + Strong buying pre results + Christmas online buying soon = Price drop

Then again some companies that have debt for equity hanging in the balance, poor results and bankruptcy around the corner and they go up!

Why sell now at a loss?

Wont that be a kick in the teeth when we see 13.5p 14p again!

Best of luck all.

by the way, Price fixing is highly ilegal, contact the LSE and ask for a guy called Phillip Cain, he will confirm what i am saying, and if my memory serves me well, CS was all over the news papers for similar things. The difficult thing is making it stick.

You said a decent gain so far today. Am I missing something. I am looking on ShareScope and so far today I have seen the price drop from 10p to 9.75p. Are you reffering to mid price?

Is there any way we can find out if the 1,000,000 trade was a buy or a sell?

guysands - 17 Oct 2003 13:46 - 200 of 2406

It was a buy.

e-Bay's Q3 results statement yesterday "along with a strong performance by PayPal"

PayPal relies on RTD for its credit risk management. PayPal is RTDs largest customer. PayPal's strong performance reflects very well on RTD.

Probably the most important factor I have noticed over the last month, is the momentum in enthusiasm, this has now replaced the dreary doom & gloom (deramping in some cases) we were seeing on various forums. People are starting to sit up and pay attention to this GOLDEN opportunity and I expect there are a lot of investors just waiting for a little news, before they jump aboard. It makes absolute sense to hold. Rather than listen to our ramblings, all you need to do is research RTD and see the real potential for yourself? ... Just to remind you where RTD used to be, take a quick look at the chart: draw?period=All+Data&action=draw&startDa Ok so it's been in the doldrums for some time, but RTD is starting to show signs of a turnaround. They have made good progress in the first-half 2003 (see the upturn in the chart), winning a number of new contracts and going by a statement released recently, they expect to be making further announcements in the very near future. What the chart clearly demonstrates is the climb out, not very steep atm, but you never know when it might come, I want to make sure I'm there when it does. Another recent statement saw the group report its first interim pre-tax profit since its formation, maybe it wont be to far fetched to suggest they may even consider making acquisitions sooner rather than later (you never know). I think we will all be rewarded handsomely in the near future. No way am I parting with my rather large block, in fact I have only recently topped up with another 20K. I agree with guysands sentiment that it is better to hold & lose some time rather than money, wise words indeed. The next month or two should be very interesting, to say the least. Best of luck all!

guysands

Will we get Q3 results?

martincoops - 17 Oct 2003 21:59 - 205 of 2406

dalrymp

next results are due on March 11th (full year)

dalrymp - 17 Oct 2003 23:17 - 206 of 2406

martincoops

Surely we'll have an update before that????????

jules99 - 18 Oct 2003 00:28 - 207 of 2406

LETS HOPE IT ROCKS....UP.!

scotinvestor - 18 Oct 2003 02:15 - 208 of 2406

should have an informal update around january for the march results.

As oil price is still high and Christmas coming up, results should be pretty good. If RTD can just announce a contract or 2. Or a major contract.

If contract plus good results by january, then this share could rocket. And i don't mean 20p!!!!

washlander - 18 Oct 2003 02:19 - 209 of 2406

If If If. We need more LOL

Nitefly - 18 Oct 2003 11:03 - 210 of 2406

Absolutely, scotinvestor and martincoops :)

The last final results were released on the 11th March 2003 but just like the interim results on the 9th September 2003 they should post news like that posted on the 7th July 2003 (quote: "Retail Decisions sees H1 profits ahead of expectations, revenues up 10 pct"), which I think is why scotinvester is refering to January as a good time for boosting the confidence level because that news was released two months before the interim's and therefore similar news should be released before the final's. Then of course there is the AGM Statement in May but just like 2003, I would imagine various contract wins would be announced asap!

Thats my opinion.

Good luck all!

You want more - eBay use PayPal who use RTD

eBay piles up the cash
By Drew Cullen

eBay has had a barnstorming Q3 with net income up 69 per cent year on year to $103.3 million on sales up 84 per cent to 530.9 million,

The US e-tailer-cum-fraudster's paradise reports strong sales overseas, especially in Germany, the UK and South Korea. And it's gung-ho about prospects for the holiday season - you can even buy eBay gift certificates now.

eBay is sitting on a $2.6bn mountain of cash. Surely, it's time to start paying dividends. After all, the company can't sustain growth at this rate for forever, can it? But from the noises that CFO Rajiv Dutta is making, the company looks like it has some other things in mind. In a conference call, he said the company is considering acquisitions.

"We have enormous potential," he said. "We were struck by the number of extremely attractive opportunities that lie ahead."

The article can be found here

4th quater resulst for ebay do not appear to be as good as last year. There was something in the FT day before yesterday. Sorry threw the paper out. Anybody enlarge.

petralva - 18 Oct 2003 20:39 - 213 of 2406

i think analysts were expecting somewhat higher profits,but were also concerned that they cannot keep up this forever!

dalrymp - 19 Oct 2003 20:06 - 214 of 2406

Good luck to all for next week...lets hope it's a good one for RTD!

guysands - 20 Oct 2003 12:55 - 215 of 2406

Ahhhh!

Help! Anyone out there a previous Nothing Ventured user? They've sold out to Fastrade and we've all been moved over to that site.

What a mess - this Fastrade site is crap. I'm so pissed off I can hardly type this message. NV was such a brilliant trading tool and now we've got this. What the hell are they playing at. Couldn't those numbskulls at Charles Stanley see that the NV site was much superior to there own and use that instead and just stick their Fastrade badge onto it.

Any ex-NV users please let me know what your thoughts are today.

I have started a new thread to discuss the NV/Fastrade issue.

Please post your comments there as I intend to email them all to Fastrade to let them know how dissatisfied we are. This is the link:

http://www.moneyam.com/InvestorsRoom/ShowPostList?fID=1&tID=1430


or search under the epic code of NV.

The title of the thread is Nothing Ventured vs Fastrade.

Many thanks.

Guy

There does seem to be a few big trades going in on this stock. Having closely monitored the trading in this stock I am now begining to believe that manipulation of this stock has been going on as mentioned in previous articles here. Very clever. Thanks to all for filling a gap in my education.
