Feedthegoat, what did the FD say then. What reason could he have for selling the only shares that he owns. The market is nervous enough anyway.

[latifs100] 07/7/2003 17:27

big sells gone thru, anyone know anything, worth topping up?

[feedthegoat] 07/7/2003 14:00

just spoke to him
- no problem

[pommey1] 02/7/2003 17:49

Why is the FD disposing of 5000 shares after recent good hike. He has nothing left. DYOR

News of Products at last. This is what we have been missing from this company. They need to sell this new XML Document Gateway in some quantity. I'm not sure that they are first to market but the new buzz word of XML is certainly getting some attention in IT fields. If they now use their cash to acquire a customer base for which this product would suit - then who knows! The only thing that this company were missing was strong sales, everything in place. DYOR

Any press coverage today about yesterdays prod release ..........I use Sharecast for a paper roundup, but it generally only covers the bigger stocks?

richyrich

you mentioned that you were surprised there is not more comment on the board on this stock - take if from me, enjoy and hope it stays like that - but it won't if EDP comes into the radar of s??h???? which has ruined some other boards of promising stocks due to the bombardment of endless posts of repetition and little fact or helpful comment!

With todays rise they are still trading below assets and cash

I think!

[abcd1234] 18/6/2003 21:38

any coverage on any of the share newswires anywhere??

[abcd1234] 18/6/2003 18:10

by £360............I presume u mean £3.60...... :O)

[divina] 18/6/2003 17:58

I bought some at £360! 3 years ago but topped up a few weeks ago
I don't quite understand the new software have to look into that
nice surpirze today , but as HP said it was well undervalued before this

[abcd1234] 18/6/2003 17:02

Highest vol traded for over a year, looks like a real interest has been shown in this.

[feedthegoat] 18/6/2003 17:01

Dont think Directors as they have enough already.
Last time they sold some price was at about 370!

[21richyrich] 18/6/2003 16:57

ahem..... not quite in my league!!

[abcd1234] 18/6/2003 16:36

someone bought £265k's worth for example now showing up (in lates, timed as 2.31pm at a price of 88p for 3000,000 shares).....not me

director buying methinks perhaps or was that u again richyrich!

[abcd1234] 18/6/2003 16:28

some press coverage will help it

lots of buys will be showing up as "late" later on

[21richyrich] 18/6/2003 16:08

Been sitting on this share for 12 months and now back in profit and topped up again this morning at 69p after seeing the RNS news release on the prospects that the new XML product when launched appears to have mass market appeal and XML has been touted by Techinvest as "the next big thing" ( when tipping Stilo International) with massive potential to make sharing documents easier across different computer systems.

Just got in to see price up 40% at 89p and topped up by a further amount as this IMHO has potential to be another Gresham Computing - fingers crossed another large % jump tomorrow!!

Amazed there has not been more comment on this board!!!!


Apart from the potential of the XML product this is a solid long established company with asset backing in cash and property and paying a DIVIDEND to boot not some flakey dot com!!


Anyone else out there any opinion / insight into the new product potential?

[divina] 18/6/2003 09:54

You got in just at the right time Huge Pants

[hugepants] 18/6/2003 09:50

What a truly great share!

[call-logger] 18/6/2003 08:36

Wow - up nearly 30% today on a new product launch

[feedthegoat] 12/6/2003 14:22

up 10% today....nice

[feedthegoat] 12/6/2003 11:44

fd sal.60k bon.21k benefits 15k actually i stand by my comment

[pommey1] 03/6/2003 16:53

Cheap yes but business static. Yet more money gone on R&D. Still no news of new products and new sales. FD gets nearly C90K so should be able to buy a few thousand shares. Share buy back not really significant with 25mill+ in circulation. Full year results will be interesting in my opinion. DYOR
