No idea. Unless the $ suddenly weakens against the £
lol

Not so board with AHT now 12% today and looking for 30p before results.
GHT jumped some too.
I guess we are forming a "W". Still its better than forming a "7" or "L"

S.P, B.B.
Just when I thought I was all alone on this sinking ship.
S.P. sorry didn't follow you out but I don't like taking big losses especially when this old tug will get refloated, sooner trade it on the way up then get out near top with some trading profitt. If you are looking to get your losses back try brpg and nsb, done very nice of late and are about to run again.
P.s the way the market has gone today the yanks can stay bloody closed till Christmas. Has been a cracker.

(off topic a little, WHOG looks to have a seller at the mo (EVO mm staying out), however once the seller is out of the way, there's substantial upside with it's games lineup for xmas (Harry potter , battlestar galatic etc)....if you have time, take a peak...dyor etc..)

Cinoib,

Serious Punter and Blockbuy are often around, (probably reading this now). I respect their opinions on this share. They too often think they're talking to themselves on this thread though.... :o)

[cinoib] 28/8/2003 08:58

ddd,
not this week or any other week befor Xmas.


Dsmith,
someone has to take up the riens as it's some considerable time since we've heard from the mento. He has obviously sold up and gone elsewhere, most likely cellssus, as that was another of his reccomendations and moved up steady away but a long term punt and not a t10 job.

Xerox has advanced 46 cents, or 4.8%, to 10 after shares were raised to strong buy from market perform by SG Cowen, which said it remains cautious but feels sales should begin growing and margin improvement will be good enough to enable earnings per share growth of 25% in 2004 and even more in 2005. This news should be good for the outlook for Danka.

Danky currently $2.60.

[mickharkins1] 26/8/2003 14:25

I personally doubt it...........doesn't seem over significant. We'll soon see what the Septics make of it........

[dinglydanglydan] 26/8/2003 14:17

Danka and Heidelberg Expand Partnership to broaden Digital Market Presence


Danka Business Systems PLC, a leading independent global supplier of office
imaging systems and services, and Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (Heidelberg)
today announced a series of agreements designed to expand their presence in the
digital print marketplace and to further meet the needs of their digital
customers.

The agreements are among Heidelberg USA, Danka, and NexPress Solutions LLC - a
development and manufacturing joint venture of Heidelberg and Kodak. Key
elements include:

•A multi-year distribution agreement enables Danka to continue direct
sales of the branded Heidelberg Digimaster(R) product family worldwide,
including the 9110 system, the high-speed 9150i print system, and a full
range of finishing products and accessories.

•A cooperative marketing agreement gives Heidelberg USA and Danka more
direct access to each other's digital product portfolios. For example, Danka
customers can gain access to the new NexPress 2100 digital production colour
press through Heidelberg USA's sales force. Heidelberg customers will have
access to Danka's portfolio of high-quality document output systems through
Danka's sales force.

•A cooperative-service arrangement enables Heidelberg USA to extend its
service geographies in the U.S. by outsourcing service to Danka's highly
regarded nationwide Technical Services organisation.

'These agreements build on Danka's status as the only company worldwide, besides
Heidelberg, that sells the Heidelberg-branded Digimaster family of products,'
said Bill Troxil, senior vice president, Production Print, Danka. 'While they
give both us and Heidelberg entry into new products and market opportunities,
our customers are the real winners by gaining access to one of the industry's
most comprehensive suites of products and services.'

'This expanded partnership demonstrates the commitment both Heidelberg and Danka
have to the advancement of digital printing,' said Bill Blair, senior vice
president, Digital, Heidelberg USA. 'In our digital business, it is critical for
us to meet the individual productivity and business needs of our customers.
These agreements with Danka will help both companies not only meet those needs,
but also foster new growth through a broad range of digital solutions and
exciting applications.'

Cinoib, you keep posting son, I'm lurking! :o)

[cinoib] 22/8/2003 13:58

up3p at last were up to the mark.

[cinoib] 22/8/2003 08:24

Is there anybody there.
Seems as though you all sold and gone, not surprising when it closed at 41.9 in the states and the greedy mm's mark it up a misserable 1/2p.(greedy sods). come on mm's play the game fairly.

Done well on this little baby not going to desert now may have to keep for a few more months if i had some spare cash i would buy now.

[zedder] 15/8/2003 00:37

Having got out at 51p and 51.22p minutes after the results, am now back in at 38.8p and 40p over the last 2 days, and not surprisingly with about 25% more shares than I had before (plus they are now all within an ISA as I moved in the cash across). Now settled in for the long term. There is still risk in this one, although having fully read through the 8K filing I am still confident this is a good investment on a long term view. If they get their SG&A down to the 30% target they are after, that will produce some very large cost savings going forward.

[cinoib] 14/8/2003 21:57

Looks like we'll loose the 2p gain made today in the morning as it closed down 13c.
