I have picked up a few of these and am pleased with the steady rise. This is the holding company which owns Ofex and in Dec-more mm's will be joining it to make it a stronger competitor for LSE and Aim markets. Well known market firms seem to be investing in this one but so far small investors and analysts are not taking much interest. I'm in early as I think it will do well---any comments from regulars on here?

very small pull back today but wouldn't be surprised to close blue again squidd.

Bit of buy on rumour.......... I think. The one I mentioned Ofex:STH rumoured to announce a decent sized fundraising at current price in next week or two - would be brill for them.

good article in the Times today-sorry yesterday saying trading has begun etc.

down a bit yesterday but on the way up again today-I'm still holding did you add any sqiudd?? now we need the tip sheets etc to start talking about them.

It was a tip in this months Quantum Leap moneyplus ,they only have two new buys in each issue.

cheers Jimmy.

shore capital took some profit yesterday and probably caused the dip but they still own over 4% and the sp closed on a new high-good for Quantum Leap. did they give any guess on future value jimmy?

With so many opportunities to take good profits on PMK, hardly anybody seems to want to, they just keep buying. I topped up a little during the dip, but wishing I had a lot more funds. Looking like a fire sale over on HHO, might be worth watching.

squidd don't you just love this share--up again this morning I'm surprised Shore capital sold a chunk so early bet they're regretting it now!

moneyplus: The latest rise puts PMK almost at the top of the LSE All Share leader board since early September, with a 4X multiple, and way ahead of everything else on this BB except possibly for QXL. This thread should be buzzing with excitement, yet you and me are the only ones apparently interested in it. I despair of my fellow investors who continue to back their pets, many of which to me look like no-hopers. I'm also virtually the only one backing ELA, which I've flagged on this BB, and which likewise is performing very strongly. Oh well, we can only lead them to the water.
I'm looking hard at PCM again after noting the QXL phenomenon.
sd.

I'm in PCM and prepared to hold long term--bid TV over here is certainly pulling in addicts so I imagine PCM will do the same for chinese buyers now they've streamlined the group and raised funding until 2007 end I feel the rewards are just around the corner!! I certainly hope so as I'm taking a hammering on VOG and wondering whether to cut and run. agree with you about the lack of interest but I found this with my threads on HBG and PRTY both have performed well also Neteller was ignored for ages and look what happened there!! it wouls be very nice if PMK goes the same way but who knows. enjoy your weekend.

Finally some profit taking, but the there doesn't yet seem to be heavy selling; perhaps just a breather on the way up.
sd.

squidd-bound to happen though the whole market is slipping today do you think this is a general sell off before the christmas break?? I tried to buy ELA through squaregain 3 times yesterday each time it told me I didn't have enough funds---is the price 11p as I thought or is it 11 in which case too rich for me!!

MP, I had a look at Elan too, quoted in Euros. Nice chart.

recovered well at the close maybe ahead again tomorrow.

moneyplus: The new non-exec director, Nicolas Smith who came aboard today, is also a director of ACHL, which has a following on this board. Very interesting too that he has bought 100k shares at the going rate of 25p. Yesterday's pause was, I think, a mini opportunity to top up before we hit 30p.

cheers squidd wish I could afford to add to my holding.

moneyplus: The recent pause has allowed ELA to overtake PMK in my portfolio. Hope PMK will catch up, but both doing amazingly well and bringing us lots of Xmas cheer. How can we kick start PCM.
sd.

PMK taking a breather and PCM needs at least a year--IMO of course.

I mentioned STH:Ofex before here's their trading update today and I think it shows just how they are already reaping the benefits of a 'greater' Ofex:

Capitals not mine, but I think it is pretty impressive and might have merited more than a 0.12p share price move.

ST HELEN'S CAPITAL PLC

advised by St Helen's, which creates investor opportunity in early stage
franchise investments.

On 1 January 2006, the St Helen's Ofex Division, run by Barry Hocken, Executive
Director, will be joined by John Bridges as an Associate Director in the Ofex
Division. John is well known in the Ofex community and we look forward to his
contribution.

St Helen's continues to maintain its position as the leading Ofex Corporate
Adviser with 24 clients and a strong pipeline of new business. The Company now
shows a positive profit and loss account, whilst creating a significant
portfolio of investments and share options in client companies which the Board
believes will contribute towards the Company's future development. In
addition, the lease at 15 St Helen's Place has now been renegotiated and this
will result in an annual saving of approximately GBP40,000.

Commenting Tony Drury, chairman of St Helens said: "WE BELIEVE THAT THE
POSITIVE DEVELOPMENTS AT PLUS MARKETS PLC, COUPLED WITH THE SUCCESSFUL START OF
TRADING OF THE PLUS MARKETS PLATFORM AND THE ENCOURAGING NUMBERS OF NEW
COMPANIES JOINING OFEX WILL SUPPORT SIGNIFICANTLY THE ST HELEN'S STRATEGY AND
THE DIRECTORS BELIEVE THEREFORE THAT THE FOUNDATIONS HAVE BEEN LAID FOR AN
EXCITING FUTURE."
