Recommended as a sell and maybe buy back in the autumn in Shares Magazine. Seems to be going up nicely on fairly large volumes ahead of interims on Wednesday (18.8.04). Does anybody know much about this company??

Why might it be kept down skyhigh? By whom and for what purpose?

Haven't a clue ! just being cynical !
This should fly ! but will it ?

it already has, anything else is just a bonus

Kivver, I wouldn't describe 11p as flying, not given the market position and past history of IQE!

By "flying" , I mean 25p+

That sounds a little more realistic skyhigh. Kivver?

did anybody pick iqe to which i brought to peoples attention at 6.2p. SH then hijacked the thread and posted endless posts that bored the pants off me, she/he/it then started up his/her/its own thread to steel the glory

other posters - when i first posted it was 6.2p nearly doubled SO FAR IF thats not flying i dont know what is!

john another poster ''bought at 3 and sold at 18 in 2003''.

That must make to of us

I am a little disappointed that IQE isn't out of the 10/11p range by now with the news we had on the 27 Jan 06. Does any body share my view?

yes,,, i do, as homer would say doh!!! but still in waiting/hoping not too long now until the next news.

Me too. Still, it's Friday!

should see some movement leading up to results.

Here we go then, up 2.5%.

goal im pretty sure the improving dollar (though still not brill and fears for the future) will help enhance the figures, the effect has been quite dramtic the last couple of years. some analysts still say they wont be back in profit until 2007. but im in, happy and hopeful there will some encouragement in the results.

IQE still rising in the long term.

final results revenues up 36.1% to 20.890m

losses down from 10 mil to 3 mil, signed new contracts, looking good for this year.
