Tipped by the independent 2/01/2004

........."And so to our traditional "wild card". Pipex Communications, formerly known as GX Networks, is a telecoms company created by one of the entrepreneurs behind Ukbetting, Peter Dubens. It has been assembled from six smaller players. The ambitious company is generating cash for the first time but is still not widely followed in the City. It could be an undiscovered gem".

Well jules99 the buying was good today and the price seems set to push on up tomorrow, if there are good early trades, just need to break this 12p and hold. If all the news is good and they do pick another award you might well see your 16p target become a reality in the near future. As the buys & sells were tight today at the top 11 we could hold more large sells till the 12.75 - 13 mark. Anybody got any thoughts on where to next? Jules99 Do you still fancy the 20p mark ?

Not for this board but did anyone see ost move today or have any interest

Yes I got some last week, nice rise today 50%, once they rename to matrix we should see some more movement, good appointment today also.

According to the money telegraph on 3rd Feb 2004, anyone know anything more about the T-Mobile deal?
------------------------------------
Aim-listed Pipex Communications gained 0.62p to 11.37p as 52m shares were traded. Market chatter said the internet services provider is close to winning a deal with T-Mobile.

No what was the jist, I must have missed that one.

Did you say deal with T-mobile on the horizon...or close....An announcment by Pipex at some point would be welcome by all no doubt..

up a little this am...11.25/11.75 as I write...up1%

it's in the right direction..threat not.!

jules99,

at the moment the T-Mobile deal is just talk - but pretty strong at that from what i can gather. could be worth a bit if it does go through.

skids

That could take us up to the much mentioned 16p in a matter of hours!

Anybody hear of rumours/gossip about a take-over for Pipex...

I've seen it mentioned on Sharecrazy, Ample and ADVFN BBs in the last couple of hours...might make for an interesting open on mOnday!

Wow it sounds as though punters will be falling over themselves to buy on Monday!

Question is do we go for a quick buck and risk letting them slip away as the price rockets or hold on relying on support at the current price (and the future potential that will remain unchanged) in case the rumour is nothing but hot air ?

I don't know about any take-over, but there is definitely a strong echo of T-Mobile and some sort of deal!

skids

What to do ? As usual my problem is being at work during the day is not good in these situations, by the time i get any news it is 20 minutes late and I may not get to a PC for hours due to meetings. I think I would bank some of the profit to hedge. Hard one to call gents .... good luck and lets hope for a good start to the week.

does anyone know who owns t-mobile or its symbol ? i believe its Deutsche Telekom but can find no listings on the ftse

German compeitior to Pipex posted a whopping 36.6 E profit on Thursday ! Internet providers just keep on reaping the rewards of a bubble in people wanting www access !

Lots n lots of postings on various bb about this possible take over, anyone got
any relastic target price if someone does approach is there a standard percentage that should be added to share if approach is made i.e. 25% to price at present. Just happy with any amount as got in sub 6p on two deals.....

Happy 1 - Thats news about German provider is very good news ...PIPES MOVING UP AND BUYERS COMING in at 11.75p now readily...

Broadband is here to stay alright, and Pipex was in there first, now eating some cake..


Mobile Broadband is the next big thing...everyones gotta have it...

This has got to help.

Why WWW needn't mean world wide wait - February 2004
"2004 is the year of broadband. With the modernising government agenda providing the impetus for councils to deliver all their services electronically by 2005 and the Government's pledge to make broadband accessible to all by 2008, local authorities need to ensure that broadband is a key part of their e-government plans over the next year. Broadband can bring many benefits, to your workforce, to efficiency and to the service that you provide to your citizens." (The MJ, February 12th 2004: Why WWW needn't mean world wide wait, Ian Mckenzie asks why more councils aren't cottoning on to broadband.)

Some big sells mid afternoon with targets meet and profits taken, price held what will Tuesday bring?
