MEDICAL MARKETING, A Speculative Punt That Might Reap Rich Rewards (MMG)     

goldfinger - 01 Sep 2004 15:33

This ones a heck of a specualive investment but it seems that the institutions are willing to stomp up the cash to back it in the long term.

Heres the latest news from Killik stocbrokers on the company..........

MEDICAL MARKETING Joint Venture

We recently highlighted Medical Marketing (MMG) as worthy of attention. The company, in which I have a personal share holding, has this morning announced the formation of a joint venture, Genvax, to develop a novel DNA vaccine platform technology.

Human trials have been underway since 2001 in areas such as Lymphoma and Myeloma but the technology has broad applications in cancer, viral and bacterial infections (hence the term platform). The technology works on boosting the immune system by teaching it to identify hard to recognise cancer proteins as foreign and destroy them. Early results from the 25 patient trial in lymphoma are encouraging and evaluation of the result is expected by March 2005. Successful results should mean big pharmaceutical groups will start to take financial and commercial interests around that time.

This looks to be the first of a series of announcements due from Medical Marketing as it has a range of predominantly cancer trials moving into the clinical stage. (news flow could push the price higher)

The stock has made good progress in recent sessions up to the mid-80p level where the company is valued at just under 40 million. ENDS.

Please DYOR

cheers GF.

seawallwalker - 21 Mar 2005 13:20 - 746 of 2444

This is begining to sound like the advfn PET board........

loadsadosh - 21 Mar 2005 13:42 - 747 of 2444

SW
I wouldn't know I never use that board since someone advised,

"If that would be advfn, I would not take much notice.

That site is full of rampers and idiots".

regards Loadsa

seawallwalker - 21 Mar 2005 14:17 - 748 of 2444

And how true that is...............

seawallwalker - 21 Mar 2005 14:22 - 749 of 2444

loads........ if you are going to quote me, then do it in full, thanks.

seawallwalker - 18 Mar'05 - 13:26 - 712 of 748 edit



If that would be advfn, I would not take much notice.

That site is full of rampers and idiots.

The chances are that one is being prepared, but no one on a bb would know for sure.

Lets sit on our hands again.

rob advfn has its uses, and there can be some good info there, but it is as well to take any er, "insider" type talk with a hefty pinch of salt.

loadsadosh - 21 Mar 2005 14:58 - 750 of 2444

OOPS!
Sorry WS was it you?. He He

mitzy - 21 Mar 2005 19:37 - 751 of 2444

25 a share in 2 years......

rob308 - 21 Mar 2005 19:48 - 752 of 2444

mitzy........ I sometimes do not no whether to reach for the valium or the champagne when I read your predictions............ long may they continue mate...... by the way I have still not taken profit (in 5 X years) and am still accumulating........ profit taking???????? for the faint hearted (and the sensible)
Keep it here guys........... Rob308(nearly an f355)but if we hit mitzy's 25 a 550 Barchetta for sure

mitzy - 21 Mar 2005 19:51 - 753 of 2444

I'm still in from 6p rob so thats a 30 bagger already but theres more to come...been a holder for 5 years through thick and thin but its worth it..!

doughboy66 - 21 Mar 2005 19:59 - 754 of 2444

I wish i could believe that mitzy,i have a lot of confidence in your comments on MMG but are you really that confident? I know there is a lot of news flow to come out of MMG in the near future but as we all know with pharmaceuticals the results of trials are not always successful and shares can fall heavily on bad results.If you are that confident though i might just top up my rather small holding.

good stuff.......
I have said many times on this thread do not forget all of the other products undergoing r&d in the mmg lab in camb's by various companies, ALL of which mmg have a considerable interest in.

Mitzy, if you had the b*~~s to get in at 6pence fantastic, my lowest dip was at 15 pence but the red meat is still to come.
By the way I have done a little bottom feeding lately and picked up Medysis (mdy), up 13% today and worth a look.

mitzy - 21 Mar 2005 20:06 - 756 of 2444

Thanks for that info rob.....

goldfinger - 22 Mar 2005 00:57 - 757 of 2444

Just hope we keep going up and up. Dont like putting targets on share prices.

cheers GF.

mitzy - 22 Mar 2005 09:39 - 758 of 2444

No news again and the sp is marked down which is no surprise ..

mitzy - 22 Mar 2005 09:39 - 759 of 2444

goldfinger - 22 Mar 2005 11:53 - 760 of 2444

Well the management arent helping things with their silence but Im sure if it was bad news they would have had make public the news as per the FSA rules here,

Rule 9.2 of the Listing Rules in force on 4 July 2001 states that:
A company must notify the Company Announcements Office without delay of all relevant information which is not public knowledge concerning a change:
(a) in the companys financial condition;
(b) in the performance of its business; or
(c) in the companys expectation as to its performance;
which, if made public, would be likely to lead to substantial movement in the price of its listed securities.
The continuing obligations of a listed company set out in the Listing Rules are designed to promote full disclosure to the market of all relevant information on a timely basis. The FSA regards the continuing obligation requirements of Chapter 9 of the Listing Rules as a fundamental protection for shareholders. Observance of those continuing obligations is essential to the maintenance of an orderly market in securities and of confidence in the financial system. The FSA therefore takes the most serious view of listed companies which fail to comply with these requirements.
Ends.

One could argue of course that they would also have to report any good news which would lead to a substantial move in its price but I suppose they are looking upon the genvax as already priced in before the 18th.

Seems to be speculative selling this morning which one would expect in the current market envoirement. Best to hold tight I say and were only days away from the next big news. The shares could move very much higher.

cheers GF.

mitzy - 22 Mar 2005 12:24 - 761 of 2444

Nil Desparandum... I will let you know immediately I get the news.

goldfinger - 22 Mar 2005 12:32 - 762 of 2444

Cheers Mitzy.
