Should I sell my ADVFN shares? (AFN)     

Stuckinrut - 18 Feb 2003 10:04

Been a holder for too long but now getting very nervous, bought at 6p. The share price has held up in the last few months but looks like the market makers were dumping stock yesterday. I presume there are some concerns now that they have a competitor but also at a stroke they have wiped out some of their income and path to profits by reducing prices last week.

I sold 100,000 yesterday and am in 2 minds what to do next, anyone holding or selling? Anyone know how much cash they have left as its not too clear from the Annual Report?

Thanks Stuckinrut

Sold some of mine yesterday and balance today. I wonder how the sale of Ample(iii) is progressing. Heard rumours that ADVFN where trying to do a deal but didnt iii lose millions before it was bought by AMP? The time taken to manage such an operation after it has been through so many corporate hands will be a nightmare and a huge cash drain surely. Scary.

4 years on the price is just the same!

Against a four year bullmarket, it is surely mismanagement.

"pretax loss narrows" should be good for the next few years like "pretax loss widens" was for the last few!

sell now before inflation and boredom overtakes.....

disgraceful...answer to the header..yes.

Mr Magoo - 04 Jul 2008 16:36 - 14 of 91

that sounds serious- why has the sp been going up?

rayrac - 04 Jul 2008 16:41 - 15 of 91

Are they bust,ie, finance, or is this a tech thing?

romanway - 04 Jul 2008 16:43 - 16 of 91

I had assumed that it was a tech thing. However, they are not usually down for this long. Makes you wonder.

I've run TRACERT which suggests that it is a problem with Colts system.

Navajo - 04 Jul 2008 17:04 - 18 of 91

Last trade time was 4:28. They also went up another 1.5% at 4:15.

A tech thing, but a bad one by the looks of it.

Pugugly - 04 Jul 2008 17:08 - 19 of 91

romanway:> I was told when I phoned it was a techie thing. however down a lot longer than usual - BUT if finance I would have expected rumours and so far as I am aware there have been none. Certainly based on the quality of the Threads I follow they seem to atract more posters some of whom are v-knowledgeable.

Any one with any knowledge?

Optimist:_ We crossed - I bet COLT age getting a right kicking

Unfortunately ADFN seem to have let their members out of the the "FUNNY FARM"!

banjomick - 04 Jul 2008 17:28 - 22 of 91

and it's still down,crikey! Oh dear never mind :-)
