Is this what's behind recent Director share purchases see under "news" at top of page


looks as if they could be announcing some time soon some big increases in employees using their products

News at last - nice to see the Director buying and tick up in price - this share is tucked away in my botttom drawer!

I took profits on half of my stake which has caused some of the fall. No reflection on VBT, whose progress I'm very happy with. It's just that there's good upside in some of the bombed out smallcaps and I wanted to redeploy some funds.

generally I prefer to argue on a BB rather than agree because you don't learn anything from those who share your own view you just begin to believe you must be right which is always very dangerous.

Having said that I can't disagree with anything you write - that's also how I see things - recurring revenue is a big plus and it does seem to be an almost recession proof part of the market to be in, no consumer spending angles etc - just wish the spread made it more attractive to deal I hate paying offer price on such a big gap even although I know in the long term it shouldn't make much difference.

the thing is that with the recent share price fall, the emergence of VBT from overdependence on one client (the Pru), high recurring revenues with good visibility of new clients for the next few years, the structural shift to online benefits and director buying, it's hard to see where the MMs are going to get any stock at least until it's recovered to the 170p area.

last deal for only 1582 shares was done at 2.5% ABOVE the offer price -so it's looking like there is a dire shortage of stock at least that's the way I read it

Agreed WJCCGHCC re small number of share sales needed to move the price but now that earnings are growing, income from renewals is on upward path,and cash position is quite stable a 10-20% fall would not bother me.

As a shareholder all I ever want is to be enlightened as to the true position of the company's trading and cash situation. If I know that I can make my own judgements about other factors which might affect the price short to medium term and what others think about the company as reflected in the share price fluctuations doesn't bother me.

I sold out earlier not because I was worried about VBT's progress as a business but simply because I could see it was dead money up until the next announcement - only the prospect of a bid coming in when I was temporarily out of the stock worried me.

Liquidity and often enormous spread in the price are the only two things that need sorted out and hopefully management realise that and can do something about it in the near future.

True tuffbet although even VBT will be hit if that happens, mainly because of its low liquidity. A few spooked PIs sell a few 000 shares and the share price will be down 10% in no time. Still it works both ways as evidenced by today's move.

I think this s one of the best examples I have seen of markets not being as efficient as some of the academics would have us believe.

Shares in companies which don't have a sound and sustainable business model negative cash flow and no sign of making a profit in the foreseeable future have sometimes rocketed up on the back of a rumour or a tip sheet mention. In contrast VBT has, as the graph clearly illustrates, been ignored completely by the stockmarket despite making very steady progress and being ahead of their own financial targets.

Like you I decided some time ago there was little sense watching value waste away while gains could be made elsewhere so I sold and am now back in again. I may be wrong but I don't think the market can ignore the potential here for much longer.

My guess is that on the balance of probabilities we are heading into a recession and possibly a bear market but I am not confident enough about that to bet on that outcome. What I do think makes sense however is to load up with stocks which have not, in the past few years enjoyed unjustified rises and where shareholders would be quick to sell to preserve gains in the event of a market slide.

The fundamentals also have to be good of course and in VBT's case I think they are. So it looks to me like quite a good way of staying in equities just in case the markets keep on climbing the wall of worry but in relative terms probably significantly outperforming if we do hit the economic and financial skids.

Should we get through this period without a bear market correction I will be very surprised if VBT is not very substantially higher than it's current l;evel even after today's good move.

As expected strong set of results - tempting fate I know but I do suspect we have seen the bottom for the share price (barring a general bear market) and with a bit of good coverage from the financial heavies in the media might enjoy a strong run up in the price.
