Amazon is hemorrhaging cash and in no condition to buy anything! I don't think its survival is even certain.

[anony mous] 29/10/2014 22:03

Markets dont believe it will happen.SP crashed back in red again.

[gripfit] 29/10/2014 19:13

daily mail today say , amazon could buy this at 3 quid a pop....... or even carphone dixons. they need approval of ceo and fco though first, I don't think that warrants thinking about by them !! ;o)))

[anony mous] 29/10/2014 17:34

Chart looks nasty.More red days ahead.Brokers were living in cuckoo land.Sub 1.00.

Just as the share price was comi g down and it would have started being filled it was wkthdrawn. And the price has continued south. Almost seems like a pump (cfd) to be able to sell his shares at a higher price. Surely not....

Limit on Closing a short?

[fft] 29/10/2014 08:07

Why would someone put a buy115k order on the order book at 5p above the close last night ? Why not just get a broker to work it and probably get it filled.

There is a lot of baloni comes with the main man. Most of the backstory is fairy tale. It serves a purpose for the papers, because the truth of the rich family and private school education doesn't sound as exciting. Fair play to him though, decent chap.

[marben100] 24/10/2014 17:02

Look forward to that. He'll certainly be an interesting listen... from garden shed & £1 bet to £1bn+ float (even if we think the float price was a tad optimistic ;0)).



Cheers,

Mark

Just to let you all know that John Roberts of AO. will be presenting at the Mello2014 investor event in Derby in 6-8th November and will be there as a keynote speaker on the Thursday www.mello2014.com

There are nearly 60 companies presenting and over 20 really excellent keynote speakers through the three days so well worth a visit. I have a tiny few half price tickets left if anyone cares to email me.

[gripfit] 14/10/2014 13:58

shorts turning to longs.............. then longs turning to shorts soon.imho. give it a few days yet, then may have a shorty on it.

[megordon] 14/10/2014 07:16

Two of the most guaranteed profitable shorts on aim, this and QPP - Quindell, almost at the same price too, think QPP will go the lowest though, this does have some value just not as much as the current price.

[gripfit] 13/10/2014 14:32

not yet gwfm,,, mr aptu5 and I hav discussed , but think it may be sub a quid, a bit like a poundshop !!

[greatwhitefunkmaster] 13/10/2014 14:06

[gripfit] 13/10/2014 14:03

[gripfit] 09/10/2014 16:50

should never have got away with floatation price, just shows what can happen when people go to the casino with somebody elses money , imho.

[woozle1] 09/10/2014 16:45

Scheduled to make EPS of 4p next year. This still has a long way to fall.

[davidosh] 05/10/2014 18:26
