Looks like 250000 shares sold at 6.25....perhaps they think they know something....etc or maybe they have got bored....isn"t this all so exciting..ooeeer which way will it go uppppppp or dowwwwn.

[bikwik] 11/9/2007 09:57

Well yes i agree...lets not get too excited.....i"d have thought that 9p, poss 10p was a more realistic price...certainly chart wise.

We"ve got two buyers this morning buying just under 10 grand between them. Not exactly a kings ransom.....but then again not chicken feed either......So they either know something or think they know something or they just like the chart or they have a hunch.

BIKWIK,

I would tend to agree with you - seems like something going on here ...

Lets not get too excited yet though - this is nothing yet - looking for plenty more upside from this one.

I won't be pleased until this one gets back up to the 15p level.

[bikwik] 11/9/2007 09:18

6.25 to 6.75p......not up here for no reason!!!

[bikwik] 11/9/2007 09:17

Allo allo....something going on....answers anybody

[family guy] 11/9/2007 09:16

Aye - but you can buy over 200k at near to the mid price.

Think i'll hold off for now!

Time soon for bede to rock and roll

[bikwik] 30/8/2007 09:08

Poised for surge upwards imho.

[dusseldorf] 13/8/2007 09:59

Not convinced anything is happening soon, got some quotes for 150,000 purchase and is 6.51p for both T3 and T20

Pleased to know someone is tipping Bede at last.Lets hope we are all correct.

[janatha] 10/8/2007 12:38

Investors Chronicle ,today,tips Bede as a speculative Buy.

"Bede may at long last be in the right place at the right time.The shares remain a speculative buy.

So why has Bede attracted a suitor? The simple answer is technology.It claims to be the global leader in producing non-destructive X-ray metrology systems.....As the race is onto produce smaller and smaller chips,so the use of X-ray technology is becoming more widespread....Chip metrology is a $4-$5B annual market,so it's not altogether surprising that a suitor has popped up now.

Bede has a good client list,too,and it supplies over three-quarters of the top 25 chip makers.And thanks to a healthy order book,the company expects "significant" sales growth in this half-year."

[lyndus] 10/8/2007 12:33

Tiddlers like Bed are always at a disadvantage.If their technology is any good they will almost always be swallowed up by a larger company.Needing cash also makes them more vulnerable unfortunately.

[janatha] 10/8/2007 08:23

The move to 45 nanometres and below will favour Bede's X-ray metrology.

Their first foundry win will hopefully encourage other foundries to consider using Bede.

The High Throughput Production Platform,now being shown to customers,which can be used in customer's production lines ( the Holy Grail - as it would result in multiple tool orders )as well as addressing new applications could transform Bede from a perennially struggling to a highly profitable company.

The cash balance is a concern but for a big acquisitive company with deep pockets it would not be.

[dusseldorf] 09/8/2007 21:28

p.s. why's everybody spitting?

[dusseldorf] 09/8/2007 21:20

Outside of the potential offer, I'm still not sure the company is yet attractive, still burning £600k last quarter. If the significant increase in sales doesn't lead to overall stable profitability Bede may still need more cash and require a further share issue..(bearing in mind only £510k left i.e. if burn remains the same, they will have run out of cash by next month)....Its ok getting profit one quarter, but when you generate a £600k - £1m loss the next its irrelevant....

If it drops any further it may be worth buying a few, also on the possibility of a firm offer, though still don't see it much higher than 8p

Not trying to be too negative, but the lack of profit generation doesn't yet give a warm yes I'll buy it feeling....

MAM FACH: Gobeithio!

Pity market cap is too low to warrant a decent write up.We will probably have to wait for more good news and confirmation of a recovery.With a bit of luck current holders may be rewarded.News on takeover front could easily double share price.

[bikwik] 03/8/2007 12:47

Apart from a muppet who sells 2529 shares at 6.01p.....for £152.....honestly why bother....

[bikwik] 03/8/2007 07:56

Hmm....opening quote today was 6/7.....up 0.1250
Back down to u/c at 6/6.75...though have a feeling that this is pointing the
way....No buying yet....but i bet some people out there are thinking about it..
