More PR for Yoo in today's Times, this time about Dateline and video over G3 mobile

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/newspaper/0,,174-1530819,00.html

just sitting here waiting for this thing to blow then?

Today's Times has done a great job in highlighting YOO--2 separate articles. Patience will reward us I'm sure.

It is now 3 months since the infamous dilution on 20th Dec 04 - and despite all the press and enthusiasm these shares are still nailed to the floor! I agree they are due to break-out and could zoom to the dizzy heights of 22p! - but when that happens I don't know???????????????

iPublic deserves a mention in Doherty's flaky novels for his steadfast loyalty to YooMuddier (I love YOO).

(The contributor is a holder of these shares)

IMO it's still early days but the press article said T/O expected in the region of 100 million---we need to wait for trading update or results before the true potential will sink in. Ever hopeful! cheers MP

I will repeat what I said some time ago - I don't think that most people (other than readers of this excellent site) fully understand the breadth of what YOO can offer or the potential of digital media. And by most people I include some so-called analysts. I firmly believe that when this starts to sink in YOO will take off. I agree with moneyplus - we need to wait until the next update.

Di, rd: my trading emphasis is via CFDs which increases the gearing from the investment. The role of the broker, blue index in my case, is to negotiate the trade; with a large quantity you may be outside the spread but at least you can buy or sell them. There's a good supplement in Shares this week on CFDs. After early mistakes (in particular, buying at top of trading range with ASC) I feel I have established a trading strategy which keeps the risks under control. On holiday in Cornwall - but you do need to keep more closely in touch and can't take a complete break. You certainly need to be sanguine about risk. Gearing for SEO is 5:1 and YOO 4:1, so ratios not as large as those quoted in Shares. I see the key technique as an extension to running the profits: the price rises leading to a positive position; you then pruchase another CFD with the surplus. Knowing your ability is stock-picking, di, it would be worth setting aside a sum to trade this way.

Topped up with a CFD for 80K this morning. iPublic will be pleased to know as my entries into YOO are (usually) followed by a buying spree and price hike. Well, can't me more than a couple of weeks before a trading statment plus evo. barn-stormer!

Eric

I hope you are right Eric...about time Yoo's price moved up amd stayed there. Everything is looking good so hopefully a move up will be a big jump up. I looked at trading CFD's a couple of years ago when I started this share lark. I was turned down as I had no share trading experience at the time. Since then although I have made loads of dosh on buying actual shares I have never managed to make money with Spread Betting so the chances are I won't with CFD's either. That does not mean I have given up; just still trying.

I appreciate the bit about holidays; when we go away we not only have to keep an eye open for share prices but our two websites too.We cannot leave painting orders waiting whilst we are away and we have over 140 artists on our books so we have to log in everyday and sort things out.www.artandparcel.com

Di: will have a look at the art-site when not pressed for time. My own impression is that there is a world of difference between spread-betting and CFDs. The former is a straight bet and I suspect hte odds are somewhat against you. CFDs are really just a way of applying gearing to your trading; I wont say investing. If you are doing well, which I believe you are, then you will do that much better with CFDs. I wrongly quoted the margin on YOO as 4:1 whereas it is 5:1. So I was able to have a position of 80k for the price of 16K and well within 3000. 1p gain in the SP means 800 gain so I will have doubled the money at 22p. Of course, they can go down just as quickly and become negative. You have to be quite clear that the odds are with you. YOO is a good example with a definite support price at 15p if not higher, but upside potential to double at any rate in the not too distant future. A way to start would be to sell say 10Ks worth of shares and put this in your four leasding prospects which would not doubt include SEO and YOO as with me; I have also built up the position in ASC which I see as ripe for recovery. All three shares should move ahead in April with announcements due. The ideal attitude is "cautious optimism" - not a situation for taking high risks!

Eric

Maybe you are right Eric...maybe CFD's are the way forward for me. Hubby thinks I should make a fortune with Spreads as he can write me any program I like to help trading. I know I will go for a free trial and see if I get anywhere with CFD's. Thanks Eric.

Green09,
The supanet supadates service is run by DatingDirect.com
Is this part of YOO ?
I can't find any link to Dateline.

jecsimp

The article appears to be informing readers of Datelines, new exclusive, video mobile service. Does appear to be original and should bring in the volume required to make that 65% margin count.
