Hey, Doe boy - I never once ramped this stock ever. Get your facts straight idiot. All I did was take offence at your blatant de-ramping. And I still do. Prat.

Dil was asking you to sell well above this level, double I think. Funny how everybody seems to have forgotton that.
It's weird how a run up in the price makes people believe any story put out and makes them justify their decision. If you have made money well done. Make sure you hold onto it.

strange share price movement today. Always assuming there is any logic to price movements , its difficult to understand the buy price being lowered from 12.5p to 10.9p.Perhaps they have a different guy on Thursday and he thinks that everytime someone buys you have to lower the price! I would not have thought it was an overhang of stock after yesterdays bonanza

Bull its 40% after the first 8500 which is exempt, therfore profit of 70000-8500=61500 muliply that by 40% = 24600. It could be lower depending on your other income......but I d have to charge you if you wanted a detailed calculation lol

I am sure that you have to keep them for 2 years, this being an AIM share, if you sell them before 2 years it is 75%.

Never come across a rule like that in my career, on the contrary there should be more tax relief as you are investing in such a risky and growing market as with venture capital trusts .....

Taper relief is then split into two types -- business assets and non-business assets. The former is far more generous and grants a reduction in the gain of from 50% after one year and 75% after two or more. The latter grants a reduction of from 5% after three years up to a maximum of 40% of the gain, but only after ten years.
The effect is that for a 40% taxpayer, the minimum CGT on a business asset share is 10% and 24% on a non-business asset share.
Unquoted shares, including AIM-listed companies, are treated as business assets. Also, employee scheme shares are generally treated as business assets in any company. Other than these, straight investments in fully listed companies, where there is no employee involvement by the shareholder, are treated as non-business assets.

Every once in a while you come across a ground breaking opportunity - to see your investment increase 10 fold+. Like many others I have focused on companies that had great technology but was disappointed when they failed to commercially apply it. The difference with YOO is that they have really great products and have multiple applications that generate revenue. I believe they are in the right space at exactly the right time. Gaming & Dating must head the league table of personal / social activity. Given our increasingly busy lives the ability to participate in those activities via mobile is an absolute winner. The recent RNS's have confirmed my future YOO strategy - Add and Hold

What about the competitiors? I don't see particularty high barriers to entry which probably explains why they have been unable to price their multitude of trendy services at a profit.

You're all wrong, it's your inc tax rate - so for higher rate tax payer 40% but as scrip says, you get taper relief on AIM stocks but you have to hold for long term - anyway david i shouldn't worry about it unless you sell now, they'll be back down to 50 grand in 2 weeks.
