We had the perfect storm last year with desktop collapsing the blog from Ben and the attack from the shorter's all coordinated and hit the spot with precise timing but this year we could be lining up all the Domino's to fall and create our own little perfect storm.Shroder them holding Rns are taking about two days to come through so maybe Friday we get one?

[shroder] 18/2/2015 16:44

At this rate we will see another holdings announcement soon, 3 x 400k trades whistled through.

I'm sorry but it's that time again so come on leluot3 was it a red or blue day?





Plus does that make it seven straight red weeks with a profit warning every second day

I know it's silly but I cannot tell you how pleased I am that Brian is not "thrilled" by his new appointment!

1gw I do try and keep it balanced 1 bash for every 10 ramps

Nice spot again football. I looked at LinkedIn but missed that.

It seems to me as though Sudhi Herle may have spent some time at Zscaler after leaving Samsung, as "GM and SVP of Mobile Security Solutions" or something similar but why that would not be in the blinkx release I don't know.

sikhthetech so a move to Nasdaq/Main market wouldn't be right because you still think blinkx are corrupt and may get caught out if they move to a bigger market is that what you're implying

[stocky] 18/2/2015 15:50

Well, we are still within the 18 month timeframe. :)

[sikhthetech] 18/2/2015 15:44

Move to Nasdaq/Main market would mean increased listing fees as well as more Corporate Governance....Not sure if blnx would want either at the moment....

another dreadful day for luloo, sikhy and hotpants

make the most of your liberty, you naughty trolls!

tick tock...

[jarvis4] 18/2/2015 15:26

The Samsung/Tizen link is the key here.

[becky sharpe] 18/2/2015 15:17

Perhaps he doesn't bother keeping his profile up to date?

[football] 18/2/2015 15:12

Quick question seems Sudhi Herle last job was in November 2013 so what's he been going since or am I reading the LinkedIn page wrong?

blinkx Appoints Sudhi Herle as Chief Product Officer

Seems like a very positive appointment and not sure such a high calibre executive would join Blinkx without doing his own due diligence.

Hopefully we will see Sudhi put his hand in his pocket and buy a few shares on top of the no doubt very impressive share options he will be awarded.

blinkx quietly getting on with the job hopefully! We need confirmation of a recent return to growth in the finals and Blinkx will be off to the races AGAIN!

Goldman Suchs will no doubt be looking at Blinkx again as we approach Year End.

Good luck all LTH, we are certainly due some!

a nasdaq move would be a risky move in my opinion

think of all the class action lawsuits we would have had over the last 12 months, Blinkx would have gone under by now

but a main market listing on the LSE might work, at least you have to get proper quarterly updates I think

Barkboo - are you working on the theory that if you predict a move to Nasdaq every year or so, eventually you might get lucky?

BARKBOO 18 Feb'15 - 12:10 - 6484 of 6488 2 0
...So a steady rise until November - then the big guns come out!
Nasdaq is my guess!

BARKBOO 25 Nov'13 - 14:15 - 60470 of 90240 1 1
Harry - Unless my scaffolders have been mislead by bingo callers, the Nasdaq listing is sometime soon and not an if! Some 18 months into deep discussion is my uneducated guess?...

gowlane - it could just be that they had such a blowout 4Q. On 4th November they guided to Euro 89-91m for 4Q (revenue ex-TAC) and actually came in at Euro 96m. 96m was +24% up on 3Q and the Americas 4Q revenue ex TAC was +45% up on 3Q. So they're just guiding perhaps that that was an exceptional quarter and even a small Q on Q increase in 1Q will be a good achievement. And they are guiding to full-year growth of over 40%.

I missed quite a bit of the call, but in the bit I did hear, they were playing up their "multi-screen at scale" capability and also their ability to measure that accurately (when someone first sees an ad on one screen [device] and then follows up on it on another screen). Sounded encouraging for blinkx I thought, although I don't know what our "at scale" capability is in that department.

Over the last year, I have realised that Charts can be useful. However, eventually 2 factors cannot be overlooked - fundamentals and "supply and demand". Both can be manipulated in the short term, but eventually a compressed coiled spring will release its energy. The more and longer compressed the greater the spring back.

[barkboo] 18/2/2015 13:58

Now I don't believe in charts - just a lot of silly lines with silly names going up and down. However experts in telling us what has already happened make a lot of money trying to convince us was is about to happen.

The form and the favourite view!

What I would say is that since December we appear to be climbing The Spanish Steps - maybe the 5th step?

By May this year, the Trinita dei Monti will at least be in sight. I find that view far more interesting than that of a silly chart.

That cunning plan is in sight!

Criteo seems to be an extremely strong company, not only growth but cash flow to boot

But I notice that they are not guiding an increase for Q1 2015 over Q4 2014, predicting a range of €96-€99 versus €96m in Q4 - ex traffic acquisition costs

begging the question is growth slowing up or are they just being cautious?

Also I thought these guys depended a lot on cookies and that these did not work so well with mobile, but it doesn't seem to bother them at all

[stocky] 18/2/2015 13:29

All interesting developments. Blinkx is already connected to Tizen. Samsung launch Tizen smartphones and smart TVs. Blinkx hires a Samsung guy. Speculation that Yahoo! is negotiating to end its tie up with MicroSoft Bing. Yahoo! angling to get more into conceptual search. Yahoo! needs to grow mobile. Blinkx is perfectly placed. Video and adtech is likely to be a huge earner and growing fast on mobile.Blinkx are in all these segments and in most cases features in the top 10.The bedrock is CORE.DYOR

Footy - "Why do bashers need to post here when they have their own thread they can post and will not be disturbed?"

Nobody reads their threads...kapeesh?
