Macbullsh*t ... Jim Slater also suggested only investing in companies with a five year record of profit growth so he would never have taken a second look at these.

Profit warnings , the CEO doing a runner and negative cash flow were other things Jim Slater AVOIDED.

i wonder if we will see some comment from IC or Shares next week?They were saying YOO was a hot property a while ago but they seem to change sides quite quickly. I think you must have a fair amount of "belief " in the fundamentals in any share if you are looking for a real mega multiplier. Its easy to just blast away as some do when the share does a nose dive, I was peeved whenYOO zonked down to 4p but the business is exciting and the management team are competent, although i think they treated the private shareholders badly when selling cheap shares to the institiutions.
I am jealous of those who got in at 4p. I bought some then to average down which is loking like a good move, but i still cant see why for those prepared to that we will not see a share price in pounds not pence one day(albeit 2/3 years) but for that kind of reeturn it would be worth waiting for. IMO

Thanks for the input mactavish!
Have only held Yoo for about 3 weeks (ave price 6.5p) and haven't done the depth of research you have, nor did I fully appreciate the significance of the last RNS but I'm now not only feeling more positive about my investment but I'm also considering topping up further!
Dil,
Thanks for all your informative, witty posts!
Keep 'em coming, I'm sure most visitors to this bb must be as impressed as I am with your thorough research and level headed analysis!

Wilf , last Shares comment was SELL just before the profits warning I believe.
Stringy ... go read the accounts , the profit warning and then that story about the Emperors Clothes. These are going bust imo.

Dil old bean, let's face it. Nobody wants you on here. Nobody values your opinion. And even if you are proved right and the company goes tits up nobody will be patting you on the back. Do you really think that people will think better of you? Why is it that you crave this attention? I suggest that you stick to your sheep and stop worrying the rest of us.

Sorry about that, gorgeous - I've just seen 30 minutes of Lethal Weapon again ;)

Some really large sells at the end there, will we see profittaking tomorrow? To see it resume it's downward path would be depressing and may spook a lot into selling as it will be a while before the benefits of the new product show. I may sell half as i've doubled up, that way i don't have to worry but I think the long term for YOO is interesting however it takes so long to see profits from this sector whilst in it's infancy and cashcalls will be necessary if it continues to make big losses and takeovers. What i can guarantee is that it's not going to be a smooth ride.
