healthy buying

eg 41738 (vol) at 5.7p = 2379 pounds

RNS - funding sorted

Both to survive as a company and to fight its (strong) case in the courts against Xploite


Should re-rate from these (priced to go bust) levels

sp up on 2 consecutive days. Looks like some pi speculative buying albeit very small amounts.

Techinvest have remained confident about this company - must be the Irish connection! I am keen to see the outcome of the balance owed by Xploite and some further trading news.

You guys who read a company by the share price are in a diffent league to me. I read a company by it's business performance. CTNO has no Data Centre, it has a lease on a Data Centre - so committed outgoings. It sold the primary trading part of the business, and is spending money at twice the rate of its income. The shareholders need a change of management - to one that can turn the loss into at least breakeven - then the company has a future. With continuing losses there is no long term value as far as I can see, and consequently the mkt cap is already too high. Delisting was probably just a ploy to hide from the truth - the truth is the business needs to stop burning cash. I wish all shareholders the best, but I believe a better share price will only be achieved with action from you to make the business change, and that change will mean a change at the top.

i don't hold CTNO..but fully support IC article on page 24, wro AIM rule 41 and delisting of shares from the exchange. The current requirement of 75% of the votes required to delist should be upped to 90%. It is not only the problematic comapanies delisting but the better ones as well.

Delsiting requires some funds to sell, as a requirement for not holding private comapanies, hence forth, a complete destruction of SP, and if a matched bargain facility is in place, after delisting, it tends to be "fractions of fractions" in terms of share price ..

saffy..

the mkt cap is now 0.23m

so this mention (post 34) about a payment of 1m from Xploite: the iii poster said Monday '£1m due from Xpliote this wk'

so the mkt cap should read 0.23 + 1m, and a 3-bag from here?

A fair post imo.

thought I'd share this post
a poster yesterday on iii (ctno)

Obviously I can't give you advice to buy, you have to come to your own opinion. Looking at the facts (do your own research) the company does have a valuable asset, its data centre, which does have value much higher than the terms of the loan notes.

The rally over the last few days is partly down to this and a positive reaction to the news it wasn't going to delist. As I have said in a previous post Xpliote is due to day them the second instalement on the sale of the managed services business, which will bring in £1m - hopefully this will help sentiment again.

Downside is the board directors, one in particular.

Cor yeah, 25p to 0.5p in a year, blinding company! That's Shammy's type of tip. Sometimes ok, 90% rubbish. That looks like the latter. Pile of poo tip, but MMTS crew might still risk their house to make Shammy some instant ill-gotten cash.

[bozzy_s] 10/3/2009 14:38

I'm not stupid enough (not a MMTS member !!) to fall into their trap - wouldn't dream of buying a share at 400% higher price than a couple of days ago, just because they've brought it to my, and everyone else's, attention.

But I can see things from their point of view. Exhaustive research of teeny tiny micro-cap shares might just unearth the occasional gem. Most of us can do that research ourselves, find some proper undervalued stuff. And shouting it to the hills, I don't mind that. As long as it's not laced with false rumours.

And once the stock is in the public eye, they happily take their profits and move on. Makes for volatile and quite exciting trading - got to admit that!

The things I object to are

i- poor selection of stocks, they seem to pick more 'dogs' than gems.

ii- blatent lies and false rumours to entice the MMTS brigade.

iii- outright aggression towards anyone with a valid and balanced point of view

[bozzy_s] 10/3/2009 14:12

Can't believe I'm actually coming round to the way of thinking of these guys! Sounds like easy money. Stick a pin in any tiny-cap stock, buy a few grands worth, especially if they have been out of favour where you'll get mid price or just above, shout that little-known stock to the hills, and wait for lemmings to buy.

As long as there are no lies like 'there's going to be a news release next week' then I can kinda see the point of view of shammy and co.
