the markets are still taking a battering and like someone said, when interest rates are falling everyone sells because there is a slowdown in the economy. when interest rates are rising everyone is buying as the economy is booming and the governement is trying to stop growth...

at the moment the credit crunch does not affect IGP only the wider market in general. fundamentally the company is sound and the contracts and partners havent changed in the last two weeks, just is no demand and now plenty of supply of stock around hence why this has fallen....

as soon as things start to turn this will rise just as quick as it has fallen and with results out in March Im hoping the market will have already started to turn by then....the fed will have droped rates by another 0.5% and the UK by 0.25%....hopefully that will be the bottom.....although the UK made need to drop rates to below 5% before we see a major turn around...oil should start to drop now winter is coming to an end, hopefully it will settle to around $80 and inflation will sort itself out...

All if's but's maybe's and whatever but IGP is still a great little company working in a sector which is growing at circ 30% each year...and there isnt many of those to the pound...

[jailbird] 21/1/2008 08:21

looks like someone is selling their holding at all cost..an another 5k which
becoming a daily occurance.

is it a PI or a larger player.

20p next stop

[boadicea] 19/1/2008 00:39

Welcome in Daz. I don't think you'll be disappointed if you're patient.
I added too soon (and may add more) but not worried, particularly if they can stay cash positive for a bit.

[daz] 18/1/2008 23:08

Well I'm in for a modest maiden purchase. Seems to be plenty of stock available as able to buy up to 50,000, which is high compared to when I've looked previously.

Probably not hit the bottom yet but looks excellent medium term value.

Thanks to all the contributors, I've been lurking for a while.

Can't quite believe it's fallen so far, thought I'd missed my chance.

[smartmoney100] 18/1/2008 01:01

carly, it simply wouldn't make a jot of difference for more than 1 or 2p on the price for a week or two.

Hold/buy

[carly2] 17/1/2008 20:03

Thanks for that igoe- we need as much encouragement as we can get at the moment...I do wish igp would do the rns "we no of no reason for the fall in the share price..things are good"
Best wishes all

REAL ID STARTS OCTOBER 2009.

This could be massive for igp over the coming years, because it will involve over 240 million amercians.

ps you would have to be a right plonker to sell at this price.



WASHINGTON, Jan. 14 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Under the final REAL ID regulations issued Friday by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), states will be required to verify Social Security numbers and immigration status before issuing driver's licenses beginning in October 2009. Residents of states that resist compliance with REAL ID could find their driver's license rendered useless for federal identification purposes as early as May 2008. These regulations represent an important breakthrough in the effort to enhance homeland security and the enforcement of laws against illegal immigration, says the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR).
After formal comments submitted by the Immigration Reform Law Institute (IRLI), the legal affiliate of FAIR, final regulations now require verification of Social Security numbers and immigration status before a license may be issued and, unlike many of the other provisions of REAL ID, will be implemented by October 2009.
"Establishing that all people with state-issued driver's licenses or ID cards are legal residents of the United States is crucial to the effort to protect our nation's security and control mass immigration," commented Dan Stein, president of FAIR. "Preventing people who have no legal right to be in the country from obtaining these documents will make it more difficult to live and work here in violation of the law. This objective was the driving rationale behind the REAL ID Act."
FAIR also applauded DHS's clear message to states that have declared that they will not comply with the REAL ID Act. Beginning on May 11, 2008, residents of those states will find their licenses are no longer valid ID for boarding commercial airliners, or entering federal buildings. The federal government regularly uses leverage to convince states to comply with a variety of regulations. The position adopted by DHS demonstrates that Washington is committed to implementing REAL ID.
While the new DHS regulations include many positive steps toward protecting homeland security and controlling illegal immigration, delaying implementation of REAL ID until 2011 poses unnecessary risks. "Our enemies are every bit as determined to exploit any weakness in our homeland security to attack our nation as they were when Congress set 2008 as the deadline for implementation. We urge federal and state authorities to expedite the process of securing our vital identity documents," Stein concluded.
About FAIR
Founded in 1979, FAIR is the country's largest and oldest immigration reform group. With over 250,000 members nationwide, FAIR fights for immigration policies that serve national interests, not special interests. FAIR believes that immigration reform must enhance national security, improve the economy, protect jobs, preserve our environment, and establish a rule of law that is recognized and enforced.

NOT all small caps have fallen, look at RHL thats held up in these markets.

we could do with some news, to put some life back into this. at the moment its one for the bottom draw, luckly im not in a position where i don,t need to sell at any time, so i,ll hold on to things turn around.

[boadicea] 17/1/2008 11:15

The behaviour of this, as many other small caps, is rather disheartening, not to mention illogical. The following clip from a Barclays writer rather sums up my view.

" ............ But – and this is the unusual feature – because a lot of the microcaps haven't risen all that much in recent years, valuations are more than attractive, in fact they are stunningly attractive. They may get more stunningly attractive again – although that doesn't mean they won't go down in price – but the opportunity is there over the next six months to take sweets from babies.

I also think we are about to see M&As, I think there is very exciting potential here. A lot of M&A activity has been happening in large and mid caps – at increasingly high levels. At the bottom end there have been takeovers, but we are seeing an accelerating trend there which might not be expected.

So where should the small cap investor be looking at now? Well they should look at the bottom end of the market at microcaps – those that have a market cap of less than £100m – and that have been on the market for two or three years, maybe more. Look at those that are off the radar screens, where there is little institutional or private client interest. Companies that they can see, that they know about, where they can build a relationship – these companies are desperate for investor interest. You get share prices that aren't just cheap in relative times but are massively underpriced – where you could make three or five times your money over a couple of years. I would, however, steer heavily against anything involved in the consumer and retail sectors."

The full article will be found at -


Having got to here and with no intention of selling (as I see no fundamental problem with the co.), I would now be just as happy to see it fall further (15p?) so that I can make a major top-up at a stupid low price. Plenty of sag time before next likely update, so there's no obvious need to hurry.

[smartmoney100] 17/1/2008 09:12

237, there simply are no buyers yet, only sellers. Most of the posters here have probably got all they want for now. PIs across the board have been taking money off the table for months now, but remember, those same PIs have for the most part, made a lot of dosh over the last few years. Human nature being what it is, suggests they'll be tempted back into the market sooner or later.

Anyway, for my part, IGP is not an investment I overly worry about. Our day will come (might be a while though).

Mkt cap now £8.5m......how low does this have to go til it hits bottom.....does noone have the confidence to buy into this share??? The profit they made in H1 seems a long time ago but it was only announced a month ago....whats changed since then???

[237gmoney] 16/1/2008 16:24

It wouldnt be as easy to buy 15% of IGP as it was for ID Data. with only 36m shares issued here, even to buy 5% is tough going...I would welcome Someone like Dexapoint to the table though as Hargreve Hale have been bad news for this company, just not quite sure what Dexapoint are getting up to though....

[bigpunt10] 16/1/2008 15:49

Dexapoint may be sniffing. They seem to be positioning themselves for something? Just look at IDD etc.

[jailbird] 16/1/2008 15:46

bp,

yep and we hold out, we may get chaper still..do not know if seller is done yet.

and if we do not find buyers MMs will drop it further as proabably will not want to be holding too much stcok.

[bigpunt10] 16/1/2008 15:39

I think its a case of someone selling and nobody buying, thats why its fallen.

[jailbird] 16/1/2008 15:15

yump,

11000 could be the floor but that is probably worst case?.

[237gmoney] 16/1/2008 13:42

This stuff hasn't gone away either....

[yump] 16/1/2008 13:13

Think this has something to do with it - Dow Index.
What's worrying is that most small stocks were significantly higher the last time the Dow was at this level. Perhaps recession is starting to be priced in ?

...or you could say the market started a new bull run late 2006 and this is the first really big correction... when you look at the chart there was no way it was going to hold around 14000.

[237gmoney] 16/1/2008 12:43

Agree WJ but it seems the MM's are too quick to knock the share price here when all we have had is 100,000 shares sold. another 40k shares sold at 25p people must think the market is going to crash big time. The fundamentals here havent changed and company have not said anything to backup the decline in share price so we dont have anything to go on....except market pressure....hoping for a bounce next week

[wjccghcc] 16/1/2008 11:10

I don't think they'll be bought out, at least not for a year unless a buyer stumps up a really good price (80p+). Management own a large percentage, they're well funded, cash flow positive and their client activity levels are at an all time high and unaffected by any economic slowdown. While H2 may well be lossmaking (TWIC setoff of RSA fee), the next 12-18 months are likely to be very exciting. TWIC expansion alone would add £1.5mm to revenues and profits, and have you seen how close they've become to Verisign - two HSPD-12 contracts, an EU agency and one of the development projects?

Ultimately, they'll be bought by a trade buyer since the lumpy nature of their business doesn't lend itself to the market's short-termism, but they'll be selling from a position of strength, not because of market fluctuations in the share price IMHO.

[jailbird] 16/1/2008 10:11

looks like we all agree that this will be bought out.
lets us hope it is a decent price for the company.
