Hi All,

This is the New York trial !

Cheers,

Today could be the day !

Big overhang to clear but if the mm's keep it at 8-8.25p then there
will be buyers all over it.

It's deserves a rise, the chairman has repeatedly put his money where
his mouth is and bought millions and millions of Tou shares at all prices
from 20p downwards only to see the mm's mark it down lower.

mackem - 05 Oct 2005 14:23 - 5 of 18

For those interested in L2 Tou is a interesting play.

3 bid 1 offer at 8-8.25p, the next offer is 9.5p but here's the
catch, the mm on the offer has a overhang, can it be cleared ?
If so then there's a bounce in the shareprice.

mackem - 07 Oct 2005 10:28 - 6 of 18

Might be a buy order in Touch right now, despite a lack of buying
today and late yesterday the online bid has been creeping up and
there's size bidded too, been watching this stock for months now
and you have always been able to buy much more than you can sell
online due to the seller, today you can buy and sell 75k online which
is a positive for touch, from 7.5p yesterday to a current 7.85p now
so i think somebody is after stock.

mackem - 07 Oct 2005 13:12 - 7 of 18

I think that 50k protected at 8p mid price confirms it, seems
to match the small trades, a protected seller would get 7.75p
because you can buy at 8.05p with the mm so no real profit
for the mm if they give the seller 8p so pretty sure it's a buy.

mackem - 07 Oct 2005 14:39 - 8 of 18

Delayed 650k buy (1%) of the company !

If this is Isaacs again then he is getting very close to holding
30% of the company and thus forcing him to make a bid !

Anybody reading this ?

mackem - 11 Oct 2005 15:51 - 9 of 18

Still dropping, traders hoping for quick turn selling up, now imho
this looks incredibly cheap but others might not think the same.
It's only a matter of time before Isaacs makes a move again to
buy more or all the company if the price remains so low.

keith1966 - 11 Oct 2005 22:37 - 10 of 18

Isaacs can have mine back, bought this from 12p up to 18p and now wish I'd sold.

mackem - 21 Oct 2005 16:09 - 11 of 18

Merrill Lynch was the seller and they have none left looking
at their recent holding and today's matching trade so no wonder
the price has shot back up.

GRAEME.ALEXANDER - 22 Oct 2005 15:27 - 12 of 18

does anybody know if this is linked to "Touch Sport" as I can't find a direct refference and don't know if it is current or was a part that was sold off. I have been asked by a friend to look into Touch Sport as he is interested.
Thanks in advance . Graeme.
