Why the sell off? support @ 120p? Any thoughts?

More kudos to IOM via their subsidiary RapidSwitch:

[gerri-c] 19/2/2012 10:53

Yes, a quick look at their forecasted growth rate might alleviate some concern re P/E ratio.

The last note I have of annual sales was around £25,000,000.

[matt123d] 15/2/2012 23:59

Obviously there's a premium for this growth sector but drops off quite a bit based on analysts averages for 2013 estimates.

[wh1spa] 15/2/2012 23:28

Does the P/E ratio here not concern anyone?

[nermil] 15/2/2012 22:31

Glad in the end I didn't delay any more. I wonder if we will see any kind of retrace tomorrow. I'm still looking for an opportunity to buy more if the chance presents itself.

[droid] 15/2/2012 14:44

Knock on effect of telecity results maybe.

[matt123d] 15/2/2012 14:14

Moving above the top of the trend channel now.

153p is the all time high, would be looking for a move towards 200p if it breaks.

[gerri-c] 15/2/2012 13:25

Ah! Stealth buying has had an affect...

[nermil] 07/2/2012 23:46

Same here Greenroom78. Previously an IOM shareholder and wanted back in for a while but with other investments under water until recently I've not had the money to invest. Now I may have missed my opportunity. The P/E on this right now is extraordinary. I continue to dither...

I've held shares in Iomart for many years and have recently bought into NASA. (Nasstar) I reckon it would fit very neatly into Iomarts portfolio of companies with obvious cost savings due to Iomart owning its own Datacenters. So yes this could be seen as a slight ramp but it's really a heads up to all those that have been following Iomarts growth strategy.

[gerri-c] 07/2/2012 18:41

The last couple of weeks did seem an obvious time to add ;-) GLA

[greenroom78] 07/2/2012 16:55

Hope so. I picked up a few last week in the high 130s after watching and waiting for a retrace (that didn't come) from the 100p level.

[matt123d] 07/2/2012 16:50

Good volume today and a close above 140p. Could see 150p tomorrow.

[gconvery] 07/2/2012 16:38

Nice close there over 140, bodes well for further progress, may look to add tomorrow....

[gerri-c] 07/2/2012 12:59

Thanks for the above matt.

IOM sp: revising my view a little, the next hurdle might be 145p before we see some real movement?

This could shortly be testing that high of seven years ago (153p, 14/03/05)

[gerri-c] 02/2/2012 14:39

At least the buys keeping trickling in.

[frreeves] 31/1/2012 15:53

There was a reference to IOM in a news item in 'The Times' (page 35 Business) today which my have incentified the market makers.

[matt123d] 31/1/2012 11:37

140p is the key level and the top of the trend channel, would hit 150p pretty quickly if it breaks.

[wh1spa] 31/1/2012 11:30

I'm sure somethings afoot.

[gerri-c] 31/1/2012 11:17

Whatever is driving it, the graph looks ever more bullish. I have the growing feeling that a push and close above 140.00p would take us to at least 8-yr highs.
