RSI at a very low level at moment plus price is very near 50D MA is there any cause for concern?

[forethought] 19/7/2004 13:03

Here's the new boy!



and some more info taken from Cave & Holland site......

Experienced Roles:

CEO, COO, VP Sales, Regional VP, Sales Director

Previous Companies:

Information Builders, Scopus, Siebel, Primus, Interact Commerce, Centura

Expertise

Growing start-up companies from nothing and making sick companies better


"Cave is a leader with impressive credentials in the European CRM industry. He is perhaps most noted for his work as Vice President for EMEA at Interact Commerce, the software vendor for the SalesLogix eCRM suite. Whilst there, he grew the operation from eight to 70 employees in the UK and significantly increased market share throughout EMEA, delivering $18m in revenues in the first year of operation. Prior to that, he served as EMEA Managing Director at Primus, a global provider of eService solutions within the CRM market. Cave's broad business experience, team-building skills, and aggressive attitude were instrumental in taking Primus's European efforts from a start up operation to one that served the entire region. Prior to these positions, Cave worked for Siebel as Vice President for EMEA, preceded by a similar role at Scopus. More recently, Cave was brought in to Centura Software as COO designate to manage the disposal of its core legacy and eBusiness divisions. Cave successfully sold legacy to Platinum Holdings for $50Million, with a 6-year royalty as well as divesting their embedded database business.

Cave holds an AIB and a BSc. (Hons) Accounting & Finance and currently assists on the board of two other global operations."

btw: CRM = Customer Relationship Management (I had to look it up!)

Good news. Seems to strengthen the management team and with possible contacts and a good record should contribute to continued growth. Good vision from the current management.

True. More "institutional" buying giving DATA the two thumbs up!
Probably will see more of the same over the next month. With the charts giving a powerful over-sold indication (MACD, RSI, Stochastics etc) and with the consistent support at the 50 day ma makes DATA a good swing trade at the very least and most certainly a good buy for the long term.

[sandbank] 17/7/2004 09:31

Universities Superannuation Scheme Limited have just bought another 150000 shares in DATA bringing their total stake to 3,150,000 shares (7.04% of the company).

[forethought] 16/7/2004 12:46

A healthy bounce yesterday off the 50 day ma complete with relatively larger volume.

[forethought] 15/7/2004 11:53

Great minds think alike!
I see somebody else believes in DATACASH and has just invested £100,000 of their hard earned cash in it!
Get'em while you can.

[forethought] 15/7/2004 11:36

Misleading trade reporting.
I put an FOK order for 9000 shares at 101p and got them for 99.7p thus reported as a sell on here. These are a buy at this price.

[hosede] 15/7/2004 10:10

Fallen thru the 50 day SMA - poor market for techs at the moment - but why buy something on a future promise, when there are shares like FWY and XKO CURRENTLY churning out earnings on a multiple WELL down into single figures - and still promising future (though maybe not so explosive) growth

FirstAssist Chooses DataCash for e-payments Services
Release Date: 14 July 2004

Leading health and wellbeing solutions provider, FirstAssist, has chosen DataCash to provide its credit card processing service. The new contract award follows FirstAssist's implementation of a major new IT infrastructure across the business and reflects the need for a parallel payments system.

As an established player within the healthcare and assistance markets, FirstAssist offers a range of innovative products and services for corporates, SMEs, banks, insurers and affinity organisations, promoting the ideal work-life balance. The industry has seen a significant growth in offering online services and the need for an efficient yet secure e-payment facility was clear.

Gavin Breeze, founder and business development director for DataCash, says: "Increasingly, merchants need to ensure their payment systems are safe, reliable and up to speed with all new technological developments and applications. As their presence grows, more and more companies like FirstAssist are looking to outsource their e-payment solutions to experts such as DataCash."

"DataCash has a strong track record in providing companies with robust, secure and dynamic payment processing services," says FirstAssist's Mike Buckland, Software Development Manager. "We were particularly impressed by the immediate offer of reference sites for due diligence, accurate pricing schedules, web based XML schema examples and ongoing support from their technical team."

A major consideration of FirstAssist in the selection process was the availability of a working solution within a very short lead-time. "This was essential for the initial support of our claims handling of the MoreThan travel business, which commenced in June 2004," explains Buckland.

FirstAssist will transition its remaining business systems product, policy and claims management over to DataCash later this year.

Firstassist chooses Datacash.......

[ze fuzzio] 13/7/2004 14:48

anyone have news on the Goolge IPO ? was it meant to float on NASDAQ today ?

[britishbear] 13/7/2004 14:12

26.2 is not that demanding given the growth in internet transactions.

In fact, I am surprised it is so low.

This remains a constant buy and hold imo.

It will be taken out at some point - the DTI website makes interesting reading.

If you were a company looking to set up a transactions account and checked the DTI it clearly states that DATA is the UK's BIGGEST operator. This should drive additional traffic.

Also, regarding the PE, the fixed cost capacity is now built in. Most of any additional transactions go straight on the bottom line.

Still very confident of continued share price growth.

[igoe104] 13/7/2004 13:33

that on current news that the p/e is 26.
most share holders in this company beleive, that there will be more ongoing news and contracts, and that figure will come right down

[the jock] 13/7/2004 12:17

Even if DATA comes in on concensus,it is still has a PER 26.2
PEG 1.34

Just to rich for my blood

[hosede] 13/7/2004 11:46

sustained profit taking by small investors today - reckon they may drift down to meet the 50day sma just above 100

[igoe104] 13/7/2004 08:54

as we get towards the end of july i except, this one to start moving upwards again.
as results are out in august , and we all know they will be good.

[hosede] 12/7/2004 14:13

ZE
a very good point. All the chatter is on the boards of the real no-hopers ELH,VTB, NTX, MDY to name but a few. Sad holders who have lost thousands desperately trying to talk up their pets!

[peterz] 09/7/2004 10:26

Some profit taking or is there some neg news?

Perhaps week-end comment leaked out!

[zapa] 08/7/2004 09:36

Plastic to outperform cash in 2005.

[ze fuzzio] 08/7/2004 09:33

There is a strong correlation between a quiet bb and a great stock - check out TGM charts and bb for proof PEACE OUT !!!!!

[ksarul] 06/7/2004 10:29

Ted1806,

But you can get a list of the brokers at the bottom of the Fundamentals screen for this stock.

[ze fuzzio] 06/7/2004 09:55

there wont be a unique mm, everyone who makes markets in this type of stock, probably smaller investment management like TGIM, Close Bros, etc

[ted1806] 05/7/2004 16:40

Does anyone know who the mm's are for this share
thanks in advance

[britishbear] 02/7/2004 13:04

If you look at the chart the current pull back just matching what has gone on many times before. Soon enough it will continue its upward move.

This is a classic "let the trend be your friend" share.

Bit of research on revenue model of DATA.



Point is that the more, additional sign ups will go mainly on the bottom line.

Grand a year PLUS the largest of £100 a month OR 0.10 per transaction. I assume this is 10p and not 0.1p although its not clear.

With 1.8 million transactions a month we can soon get the picture. Close to £200,000 a month in tansaction costs (and growing) plus the annual fee.

Looking good. Can see this hitting £1.50 - scope for growth is excellent (although I agree that the future PE is looking a bit rich although I think it will be achieved and more).
