It is very interesting to see all these people who were formerly with Microsoft joining FTI. Robert Marcus, who is the new CEO, was a director of Mergers and Acquisitions at Microsoft, and they now seem to have a top sales guy who has joined. What's going on?

NH: and I am also hearing that one market maker has deregisted itself in Future Internet

PM: Goodness - who is that?

NH: can't say but if you look at level 2 on your trading screen it should be clear

PM: Why have they done that?? - especially got a top Microsoft guy from their "elite M&A" team - not just there bog standard one ...

NH: i am told that they are concerned that the price of FTI has been manipulated

PM: Surely not in any sort of criminal sense

NH: no. it seems to be related to the fact that there is a very limited free float

PM: Oh i see –

NH: just look at the chart, shares up 500% since December

PM: Hmm

PM: So what are the shares doing today?

NH: they are off 13p at 239.5p

NH: despite that the company is still valued at £130m
PM: I was a seller at 243p yesterday. I willkeep the short open.

PM:

NH: supporters say the valuation can in part be justified by some of the deals the company has struck

NH: for example with yesterday's results its reveled the acquisition for £0.3m of a 31% stake in a start-up hosting business, Chinook Hosting Corporation, based in Seattle - very deliberately sited next to Microsoft's Redmond headquarters!!!!

PM: Right

PM: So the new ceo can meet up regularly with his elite friends, i guess

NH: indeed

Future Internet Technologies, in which investor Robert Bonnier is the largest single shareholder, gained 23.9 per cent to 259p ahead of its interim figures today. With almost 2m shares traded, talk in the market was of stakebuilding, with Microsoft one mooted name.
