[dolores123] 22/1/2010 12:46

Good volume today.

Avanti seem well connected with the government having attended committees and also received grant funding for Hylas 1.

Perhaps Avanti wrote Gordons speech!!

[khitchen] 21/1/2010 17:15

an e-mail to avanti may be in order, just in case they have not heard

[philanderer] 21/1/2010 15:42

Broadband news very topical. First question at Prime Minister`s Question Time yesterday relating to lack of broadband access for Scottish Highlands with Brown reiterating the governments promise of investment.

Avanti hopefully helping out in the near future. Solid shareprice this week.

Results due out 5th Feb and will hopefully highlight the already obtained funding for the second satelite which will be of much higher capacity of the first satelite and reinforces the Cenkos share valuation of over 1300p per share.

[philanderer] 18/1/2010 09:22

Morning all, good start to the week... 85k+ traded so far (including Plus)

I am not surprised as current price targets are

RHPS 800p
Cenkos 1358p
Daniel Stewart 1111p
Equity Development 830p to 1100p

[philanderer] 15/1/2010 13:46

Afternoon all, bought in this morning for the first time. Looks very promising.

Luck to all.

[jonnyno1] 15/1/2010 12:54

lots of auto trades going through, this is going north quickly.

[dolores123] 15/1/2010 09:11

Equity Development on their web site say fair value is 830p to 1100p per share and RHPS has raised its price target to 800p.

Shares Magazine says today: "shares should maintain their good momentum. Buy"

[jonnyno1] 14/1/2010 09:54

Nice. I like the demand squeeze, customers will start to fall over themselves to secure capacity.

Another contract extension bodes well.

chrissey - a report from the satellite communications industry at the end of 2005 stated:

'Even with the high-visibility afforded such events, the reliability record of commercial GEO satellites from Intelsat and others remains high and the failure rate overall continues to drop. This is evident from a simple review of satellite history between 1997 and 2005, illustrated below. Out of the total of 170 satellites launched during this period, only 10 experienced total or near total failure. That's a failure rate of 6%, far less than the design criteria used by satellite manufacturers.'

I imagine that the failure rate has dropped even more since then.

just google naked trader

[qs9] 11/1/2010 15:25

Is there a web link to naked trader's tips?

[dolores123] 11/1/2010 15:24

The Naked Trader also mentioned the Times/Cenkos reference to £13 per share!!

[rogash] 11/1/2010 09:43

the nakid trader has bought so his clients are buying today

[dolores123] 11/1/2010 09:36

As well as the Daily Telegraph Shares magazine gave Avanti a good mention last week.

[altom] 11/1/2010 09:30

QS9.
You have my full permission to repeat that pun every morning.
Music to my ears !!

[qs9] 11/1/2010 09:01

Looks like it has taken off again this morning (excuse the pun)

From

Arianespace offers launch Service & Solutions to satellite operators from around the world, both private companies and government agencies. The Arianespace family of launchers comprises:

* Ariane 5 heavy-lift launch vehicle, operated at the Guiana Space Center (49 launches, including 35 successful launches in a row, as of January 2010).

* Soyuz medium launcher, which has been operated at Baikonur, Kazakhstan, since 1999 (21 commercial launches, all successful), and will be launched at the Guiana Space Center starting in 2010.

* Vega light launcher, to be operated at the Guiana Space Center starting in 2010-2011.

In 2009, Arianespace performed seven Ariane 5 launches (all successful) and continued to prepare the first Vega and Soyuz launches from the Guiana Space Center.

[dolores123] 09/1/2010 08:45

The launch company Arriane (see their web site) has had over 30 consecutive successful launches. Launch failures appear to be a rare event these days.So fingers crossed.

[terryebby] 08/1/2010 22:34

with two satellites now financed the impact of any loss on first satellite would be relatively small
