What is happening was slowly going up, past week down 25% Good entry or further down.

I hope the Septics get the $700 billion loan through in the next few days otherwise I can see the FTSE tanking.

YELL rose last week on the back of strong rumour that they had managed to renegotiate their banking covenants and also a heavy bear squeeze

missed this yesterday .... did not appear on NewsWatch here ....

LONDON, April 8 (Reuters) - British yellow-pages company Yell is not about to appoint experts to help it restructure its debt, a company source said on Wednesday, denying a report that helped drive its shares higher this week.

The source described the report in the Independent on Sunday, which said the company was understood to be mulling appointing experts to ease the terms of its 4.3 billion-pound ($6.3 billion) debt burden, as "wide of the mark".

Yell, whose print business is suffering from consumers' shift online as well as a steep downturn in classified advertising, renegotiated its loan covenants late last year and said in February it still had 20 percent headroom.

Yes retraced too much this, Katie adding.
CFM cynic btw ;-)

i've noticed with this share people talk abouts its debt to market value which is scary but not half as scary as TW. which has rescheduled its debts. YELL is a very good recovery play, better to compare debt to profits - looks much rosier and a more realistic comparison. No divi for a few years but should see excellent growth on your investment once the green shoots appear - all imo.

kate .... because you're such a bully, i bought 40k a few days ago - lol!

don't forget if google really are sniffing around we could soon have a very nice surprise! I'm holding some--just to dip a toe in.

Up 18.5% this morning

why would google want yell?

What could it possibly be that makes Yell a good candidate to be purchased by Google?

"Yell has lost almost half its value in the last 11 months and certainly looks more attractive now as a takeover candidate," is what a UK based trader says.

There have been no official pronouncements from Yell, but rumors suggest a 500 pence-per-share bid.

Club dream on!

Cut & paste news item, not my opinion.

suggest a 500 pence-per-share bid.

Sorry should have been 50p

so what? that does not mean that google would have any interest whatsoever

Kate, better to compare debt to cash flow.

Usually the last covenant test before the family silver is sold off.

Hadnt seen that point about 20% headroom in feb before.

Good find cyners Ill post that across the road.

it was on IG where each stock shows relevant news ..... should have shown up here, but it didn't

watch the VOL guys. I can see CYNIC laughing all the way to bank. I don't like small stocks but this one I do like. Every point means 5k for me and will add another 500k above 30p.

you either lie most unconvincingly, or you have (had!!) far mnore money than sense ....... you say that you already invested 500k to 1m into this stock and are prepared to throw a further 1.5m into the pot ..... van Gogh was sent to an asylum with lesser symptoms .... still, i guess he only lost one appendage while there, so you should manage to beat that score comfortably

Reports also cited talks between Microsoft and Yahoo about possible search and advertising partnerships

not pounds no of stocks cynic

watch the rush
