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

Anyone know who owns COLT at the moment. Still down.

This outrage must be costing a lot PLUS liability (query subject to contracts) for 3rd party damages.

We apologise for any inconvenience this has caused.

We will update this page with more information as it becomes available to us.
