10,000 to move it. Interesting activity here, no shares around.

[gark] 13/1/2017 09:49

Traded at 4.85p and still offered at 4.75p.

[davydoo] 12/1/2017 12:30

I've got an order in at 4.75 if anyone fancies selling at 4.61 ;)

[gark] 12/1/2017 11:38

Can't buy any size online and being bid 4.61p for 25k.

[davydoo] 11/1/2017 16:03

Those last 2 posts give a 3.2 - 6.75 spread, depressing :/

[this_is_me] 11/1/2017 15:41

No They wanted 6.75p to sell me 100k

[m1keg] 11/1/2017 15:14

That is weird as I got a 3.2 quote to sell 300000. Not really playing fair these MM's are they.

[davydoo] 11/1/2017 14:32

I even tried to buy some at 5.00 and couldnt

[castleford tiger] 11/1/2017 14:21

[davydoo] 11/1/2017 09:18

[davydoo] 10/1/2017 15:11

I've owned this stock for a number of years and like the way the company is managed. A lot of the loss in value has been due to past business practices and been adversely affected by Obama's stance against punishing businesses for any misdemeanour. With Trump coming on board that may help them. Mellon has been in this one for a while and benefited from the special dividend when they sold the European business so is in this for effectively nothing. He had never recommended the stock vocally in such a manner since he purchased it a number of years back. He has a representative on the board so will know in detail how the company is developing so if he is so bullish on them I am inclined to believe he has faith in management and that the WiFi business is developing strongly. That is in my opinion and I do not want to sway anyone here but will continue to be a holder at these levels that look very attractive given cash holdings, profitability and no debt.

If you look at his holdings at www.burnbrae.com they are nearly all dogs...not the sign of a successful investor. As I say, I think the PR machine is better than reality! He is an interesting chap though and he no doubt has some cash!

[davydoo] 04/1/2017 14:50

if his wealth is as claimed, then his stake here, and the company as a whole, is a very small proportion to be making such a significant claim for 2017

[gark] 04/1/2017 11:03

I think if you look at the pattern with this one there have been lots of extraneous developments impacting the business and price. These go away and it may look very good.

[kristini2] 04/1/2017 10:54

Jim's been here a long time, not his best investment and maybe he is trying to push up the price

having said that he prides on getting his calls correct, i guess a conflict of interest though as an investor if the investment has gone wrong which is apparent here

[gark] 30/12/2016 21:30

Read the article

[topvest] 30/12/2016 19:37

Hmm - is he really worth that much? Everything he owns on the stock market is a real dog when I looked a year or so back. Think he made a lot of money at some point in the "go go" years (when he was heavily exposed to the Far East and miners), but not sure I can see anything has gone well for him in the last decade. He's an interesting guy, but he's no Warren Buffet in any shape or form!

[gark] 30/12/2016 09:44

High volume for this stock went through this morning but price unchanged.

[gark] 29/12/2016 21:41

He is worth £850mn apparently and called the UK Warren Buffet. Evil Knievel also commented on value here in September.

[topvest] 29/12/2016 20:10

Interesting comment by him. He obviously sees some value here. Not sure I would trust him on delivering shareholder value though.
