Looks like investors are not leaving it to chance any longer.

On the run up to results, I think in view of all the positive news out in the public domain, we will see a steady rise up to results time.

And if the results are better than expected, with further positive news, and positive outlook, it can only be a rise Northwards, In my opinion.

Since the merger, the price has risen 20% based on today's current mid price, so I wouldn't be surprised to see some selling also, not a bad return for those who just wanted a short term punt, but, again, I believe the real winners with Yoomedia, are going to be those to stick it out over the next 5 years as a minimum, the TV landscape will change dramitically over that period, to encompass, DTV, iTV and Broadband TV - all of which Yoomedia have a good presence at a relatively infant stage still - as this sector grows dramatically over the next 5 years, so will Yoomedia - I wouldn't even like to hazzard a guess at where they will be in 10 years time, when the mass market will be global - take a look at www.dtg.org.uk to see the current growth in DTV globally for yourselves

might be hard to have a rise southwards Mac!

proptrade - 15 Mar 2005 11:39 - 859 of 3776

this stock looks pretty interesting....who are its competitors?

proptrade - 15 Mar 2005 11:45 - 860 of 3776

also one other question...is their time stamp technology exclusive?

iPublic - 15 Mar 2005 11:59 - 861 of 3776

proptrade

Yes exclusive and yes, patented.

proptrade - 15 Mar 2005 12:20 - 862 of 3776

Yes, of course, competitors in certain areas, very little in others. There is room for 5 or 6 large supermarkets, yes? All very profitable!

There will be more merger activity between players, over the next three years.

I'm in for 550k, but I urge you to conduct your own research before buying. This is the best way, after all.

proptrade - 15 Mar 2005 12:53 - 864 of 3776

i am just looking for a few different ideas and i like the look of the sales growth...big jump last interim and from the look of mast posts that will rise dramatically in 2005/6. if this is a 3G killer app then who knows how this goes...

With about 465K SEO (last count, tends to rise daily) I'm hoping SEO soars first and then I can build up YOO from 100K. You have to rank both in terms of expectations and also in 'soaring-sequence'; one day I'll get it right!

Things not so bad had 200 on Moscow Flyer at 7/4.

Dynamite - 16 Mar 2005 15:43 - 868 of 3776

Blimey Eric I wish I had your dosh! Still if things keep on going my way in a few years my money will have multiplied many times and I might be in your position. Although it is so warm I was thinking of having a day off to do the garden :-)laptop with me of course!

moneyplus - 16 Mar 2005 16:07 - 869 of 3776

Dynamite we need you on the general election thread---there's nothing exciting on the markets today! MP

Eric

when you have such a big holding in a share, what do you do when you need to sell in a hurry? I keep running into the problem of trying to sell (and we're only talking 2-5K here) and the system refusing to accept my order. Just this afternoon I was trying to sell 2K of CYH but it wouldn't accept an order of greater than 600, so in the end I didn't bother.

Sign of a rapidly growing company?

mactavish - 17 Mar 2005 18:08 - 872 of 3776

1.5million buy at close. Nearly 260k of someones money. something about to happen maybe.

jimwren - 17 Mar 2005 18:58 - 873 of 3776

as well as the big buy of 1.5 M, the total number of buy transactions far outweighed sells - change of sentiment maybe ?

NickB - 17 Mar 2005 23:18 - 874 of 3776

Are the results due in March ?

mactavish - 17 Mar 2005 23:56 - 875 of 3776

Either end of March or early April.
