But Why ?
Long term holder but have no idea why this is moving this fast.
Expected steady rise.

Be Lucky all

[anusol] 10/3/2008 08:11

erm..... Is anyone watching???? things are moving quite fast!

[anusol] 10/3/2008 08:03

a fistful of small buys coming in right from the bell...

[dell314] 10/3/2008 08:01

Has anyone seen anything from DailyDooh actually suggesting action at ASG?
It looks like his heads up was for VMG?
Was he also implying action here, or just at VMG and posting his stuff on the ASG board for those interested in the industry as a whole...

No RNS from VMG yet, either...

Let's hope this isn't a repeat of the SCT nod from DailyDooh, which was then ramped out of all proportion prior to them being suspended...

Rgds
dell

All IMHO, DYOR etc.

5 seconds too long though lol!

I wonder if the "big news" was the mediazest and cisco deal? Luckily theres 4 days and the rest of this one to go yet :O)

[anusol] 10/3/2008 07:51

it was only there for 5 seconds at most!!!!
fingers shaking from all the share price action we're going to see today.

[california joe] 10/3/2008 07:47

Well corrected, but I saw it before you did lol!

[anusol] 10/3/2008 07:45

no RNS this morning.... yet... lets see if the share price can hold when we open in 15 minutes.

[yoda5442] 09/3/2008 23:35

time will tell, in the past it has really moved up quickly.

[cyclingnut] 09/3/2008 22:01

It is rather interesting that if such big news is due on VMG then why did we rise 84% and they rose hardly at all....HOPE you could be on to something.

[hope67] 09/3/2008 21:46

VMG want to dominate the mall business and what has ASG got Malls
just guessing but think there is a connection

[cyclingnut] 09/3/2008 21:18

I want big news from ASG not VMG....

[hope67] 09/3/2008 21:15

posted on iii

The announcement from VMG first thing on Monday morning is likely to do with their Shopping Malls, see

We expect further (business) disposals from VMG themselves over the next month as they strive to focus entirely on their Mall business (which if you remember is smaller than ASGs but most probably contains more 'up-market' Malls - Bluewater being the exception at the top of ASGs tree)

[cyclingnut] 09/3/2008 18:18

Yoda,

This time we could be ok.....this is so leaky...remember last time we had the run up to 12p?

As ASG require £2m and have £30m worth of losses that a potential bidder can benefit from I believe ASG will be taken over this time.....question is....for what price.


Great technology, decent turnover,decent contracts, tiny mkt cap,need cash but have losses that someone can use for tax advantages....


IMHO all of those buys on Friday were for a reason and not just mere coincidence...

[yoda5442] 09/3/2008 17:40

cos i hold i'd have to say down !!!

[oh_no] 09/3/2008 16:46

Bull_Mega, either up, down or same.

[bull_mega] 08/3/2008 12:25

what will be share price on monday ???

[blueblood] 08/3/2008 11:54

Interim results due in next few weeks which should give us a better idea of current turnover & costs post demerger.

[cyclingnut] 08/3/2008 10:48

Texicon,


Fantastic post mate...........I think over the coming weeks we will all be very happy if as per your post above SOMEONE capitalises on those losses!!

[texicon] 08/3/2008 10:40

Very true-past losses can be carried forward to present and future profits.Very valuable,saving a lot of corp tax.

[texicon] 08/3/2008 10:36

A superb post by Hubs on iii -
"With a market cap of just £1mln, the real worth in ASG appears to be it's studio, current contracts and most of all - the net loss dumped on it by it's big sister. To any accountants out there - the £30mln loss that sits on the balance sheet is very attractive to any potential merger or buyer as profits from the combined business can be offset against previous years losses.

Ironically - the £30mln loss is worth more to a profitable company than 7 times ASG's market cap today.

Much depends on their liabilities which appear to be pretty low.

It's cash they are after as they need to spend to accumulate and compete.

However - as a bigger entity, they may not need to spend as much and will no doubt attract greater contracts.

If confirmed - I can see why this share price will fly as it is undervalued by 7 times.

I thought the same thing of SEO when it was 0.2p and bought a wedge of them. The share price went from 0.2p to 1.2p in just 6 days. That story isn't over yet but it's an insight into what can happen, and ASG can go from 2.5p to 25p in a few days.

I'm now quite excited over this one even though my holding is at 6p.

It was only a fun punt - but the profits from it could be very serious indeed.

Good luck all

HUB
nb. ASG's mates whom added cash in exchange for stock at 7p must have had the nod."
