Rising volume and share price, it needs to go over 34p for the double bottom to be realised and change of trend to UPTREND.

Kyoto: MoneyAM are now writing UK company stories to replace those of the old AFX

I appreciate that was the intention as per the announcement before Christmas, but I'm afraid my observation is that this has so far been an inadequate replacement for the scope of the old AFX. The MoneyAM stories mainly seem to be selective summaries of RNS stories and we've lost the macro-economic, overseas markets, broker recommendations and round-up stories that I thought were of more interest and which I used to post on the thread. There were only six stories on the MoneyAM news page between 6am and 7am all from HUG, and all spectacularly uninteresting. It's very sparse compared to what used to be there.

It's a shame we seem to be losing the content of one of the services but I can read this stuff elsewhere so if nobody cares I wouldn't worry about it.

Kyoto, I am sure regulars here will miss your feeds, reports and links.

Kyoto, I share Midknight's views on this & agree with you that it's a great shame that we have lost all the more intersting stuff. MoneyAm's stories totally inadeqaute so far.

Thanks for all your work here and these postings will be greatly missed by me and many others.

Thanks midknight and indushah - I think AFX, which is owned by Thomson Financial, has been more-or-less rebranded/replaced by TFN (Thomson Financial News) and I'm guessing that MoneyAM have decided not to carry it. ADVFN carries TFN amongst other news feeds so the stories I used to post here can still be read there, but it might require a subscription.
