PIPEX (PXC)     

woody57 - 14 Aug 2006 16:47

Nice rises Friday and today,after being tipped up by Money Week magazine ,with first half sales up 86%,and a cheaper Broadband bundle than Car Phone warehouse,a forward p/e of 15.4 and a likely takeover target seems the one to be on in a guarateed consolidating sector.

My thoughts exactly scotinvestor!

cynic - 11 Apr 2007 12:25 - 223 of 481

meanwhile, sp is attempting to rally .... or is that just resisting further falls!

scotinvestor - 11 Apr 2007 16:00 - 224 of 481

who cares..........if it goes between 17 to 20p i'll sell.

otherwise forget about it for a year or 2.

plenty other things to worry about in life than this

HARRYCAT - 11 Apr 2007 18:43 - 225 of 481

The answer to that one scot, is that everyone who has this stock cares.
What the point of investing & taking part in these discussion boards if you don't care???
Sounds like you have got your fingers burnt slightly with this one?
Been there, done that! :o)

HARRYCAT - 11 Apr 2007 18:52 - 226 of 481

One other thing that would worry me, in response to shareshop's post, is that there has been a great deal of adverse publicity recently concerning the easily highjacked WiFi connections currently available & I wonder whether WiMax is going to suffer from the same. There would need to be much more secure connections available imo, before it will be approved.
Also I believe that the take up on the 3G networks has been very disappointing & I saw an article recently (which I will try & find) which implied that 3G would eventually disappear to be replaced by another system.

according to FT CPW have dropped out leaving just BT in the running ...... sweaty palms ahead?

janetbennison - 12 Apr 2007 06:55 - 228 of 481

good morning richard. Just read your message re cpw pulling out. What do you think the chances are of bt bidding for pxc now?

janetbennison - 12 Apr 2007 06:57 - 229 of 481

new just out at 6.57am on moneyam new re cpw pulling out.

cynic - 12 Apr 2007 07:37 - 230 of 481

i would still reckon strong .... or at least i damn well hope so ..... i think PXC is actually quite a tasty morsel and BT have certainly been touted as a possible or even probable bidder for a long time ...... and if all fails here, then no doubt there will be others, probably from overseas.

janetbennison - 12 Apr 2007 07:41 - 231 of 481

lets hope bt. bids soon abd I hpe the price will not drop on this latest news. good luck.

cynic - 12 Apr 2007 07:58 - 232 of 481

sp is surely certain to drop at least a bit this morning

neil777 - 12 Apr 2007 08:38 - 233 of 481

Still nothing official !
According to these so called sources, CPW was the only one left.

zeibcmva - 12 Apr 2007 09:41 - 234 of 481

What about BSY ? The fit would be good for them,perhaps they are waiting on the sidelines for the right timing to step in.

scotinvestor - 12 Apr 2007 09:42 - 235 of 481

oh dear, carphone has dropped out!!!!!!!

BTW Harrycat, i am double my money with pipex right now so dont be a sarcastic womble.

theres more to life than money or aint u realised yet.

2517GEORGE - 12 Apr 2007 14:36 - 236 of 481

Looks like I may come back in at these levels or just below, I suppose PXC will eventually get taken over but it seems no one is prepared to pay the asking price, maybe now the management can concentrate on moving the co forward without the distraction of bid/bids from various sources.

cynic - 12 Apr 2007 16:24 - 237 of 481

PXC is for sale as has been officially announced by the company, and for PXC i reckon that's the best way forward anyway

2517GEORGE - 12 Apr 2007 16:32 - 238 of 481

If no one is prepared to pay the asking price then it won't be sold-------yet.

neil777 - 12 Apr 2007 16:32 - 239 of 481

Plenty of buys!

cynic - 12 Apr 2007 16:35 - 240 of 481

George .... you don't know what the minimum asking price is!

Strawbs - 12 Apr 2007 16:44 - 241 of 481

16p was the rumoured minimum (AFX Announcement). I still remain unconvinced they'll get a buyer for the whole package. It's possible they could sell off bits in a break-up, but I don't see the broadband business getting a premium, and I'm not sure who'd take on the WiMax stuff.

In my opinion.....Don't hold....Etc.
