Interactive Investor have decided to up there fees again, from £22.50 a quarter to now £9.99 a month.

Any recommendations for a cheaper broker?

I am considering going to iweb-sharedealing(Halifax) for a fixed £5 a trade or X-O(Jarvis) for £5.95, neither have monthly, yearly, or inactivity fees like ii,,,

THe stock has been in a downtrend since Trump was elected. There has been some backlash at Nectar for pairing up with the Dail Mail. And of course we have had Lego withdraw its promotions over the DM stance on the EU /judges. People are more divided or polarised politically more than ever. If TPTB wanted to divide and conquer they have done it.

I'm not sure but has the number of comments on its online articles has quietened recently? It appears the santamonious readers have decided to leave?

Greatings from Germany.

hxxps://www.dmgt.com/~/media/Files/D/DMGT/RNS%20release.pdf

Paul Zwillenberg, Chief Executive, commented:
“DMGT’s performance in the first half was broadly in line with our expectations. ... Gains across the portfolio are offset by more challenging conditions for some of dmg information’s businesses and by our planned investment in growth areas such as Xceligent."

And on Page 12:

"The European business was affected by declining residential property transaction volumes in the UK, where mortgage approvals were 3% lower than the previous year, and by reduced revenues from the German business, On-geo."

Looks like Zwillenberg is not aware of the real trouble DMG information's businesses are in here in Germany. Or wait, the last msg from Titanic was "we are facing more challenging conditions" after hitting an iceberg.

Or as we say here in Germany: 50 mil "Peanuts" for DMGT.

Its time some one smelt the coffee - Ads need to be WANTED... They only really work in magazines and Newspapers - especially HOME and GARDEN sections - but probably MOTOR too and MUSIC of course - plays and theatre.

Its not rocket science - its has to be newspapers. What the industry needs is cheap embedded chips in wafer thin , bendy white material that can be used to read papers - a big big brother to the kindle - so we can watch video clips in our 'papers' (as seen on Harry Potter)...

The industry NEEDS to CLUB together and produce a NEWSPAPER KINDLE - you can read your papers on-line but only via NEWSPAPER TECH - A NEWSPAPER KINDLE.

Like the Daily Mirror once produced the Mirror Dinghy, the big players need to produce a News Paper Kindle.


Google is old failed tech. IT DOES NOT WORK as an advertising medium..

Get out there journalists and reclaim what is yours!

Daily Mail & General Trust downgraded by Deutsche Bank
19th June 2013, 10:57

Deutsche Bank has downgraded its recommendation on Daily Mail & General Trust [LON:DMGT] to 'sell' from 'hold' after analysing the divisional performance of the group in detail and concluding that it is unable to understand why the stock carries such a premium rating.

The City broker has cut its price target to 590 pence per share from 66 pence.

The shares are up by in excess of 40 per cent since the beginning of the year and are up by 10 per cent in the last three months.

Separately, Espirito Santo Investment Bank reaffirmed its 'neutral' call and 555 pence per share fair value, in a note to investors last week.

Broker Forecasts consensus data highlights that 35 per cent of brokers continue to rate the shares as a 'buy', while 47 per cent are 'neutral' and 18 per cent rate the stock as a 'sell'.

At 10:53am: Daily Mail & Gen Trust share price was down 14.25 pence at 770.75 pence.

Well, I've just sold out. Held these shares for 5years or so, and always making a loss. Suddenly, last autumn the shares took off. I vowed to sell if ever I broke even (c.580p) but managed to hang on in until 710p, making a decent profit. I notice one broker is predicting 830p so I may have acted too soon, but as they say "leave 10% for the next man...."

Think I might dip my toe in the water with IAE and buy in on Monday with my profits from DMGT (up 36% since Nov 2012!)
(Lokking for at least 50%+ IAE upside in the next 12months (imho)

There was a news article today about the disclosure of David Einhorn having a 4% short position in DMGT.



Does anyone know what the rationale is?

Daily Mail & General Trust Acquires Jobrapido

Newspaper and media group The Daily Mail and General Trust (LON:DMGT) has acquired job search engine Jobrapido €30 million.

The search engine will join DMGT's existing consumer media business, A&N Media, which has been renamed Evenbase.

A&N chief executive Keith Potts said: "I'm absolutely delighted to secure such a valuable asset for the group."

Jobrapido is the world's second largest international job search engine and includes Jobsite, OilCareers and Broadbean. It delivered 660 million visits from job seekers in more than 50 countries last year.

The valuation is set to increase over the next few years through an earn-out arrangement based on achieving financial and business targets.

Martin Morgan, DMGT CEO said: "Bringing the Jobrapido team into the DMGT group is a great example of DMGT's core strategy in action.

"We seek out and acquire market leading businesses with strong positions in rapidly growing international markets."

Last year Jobrapido generated revenues of €24 million and profits of €6 million.
