01/9/2017 06:11 | Interesting new appointments. I like them both. pleased to announce the appointments of Georges Fornay and Charlotta Ginman as Non-Executive Directors with effect from 1 September 2017. A French national, Georges (aged 60) has over 30 years' experience in the technology and video games sectors and currently sits on the board of France's second largest Independent games publisher, Focus Home Interactive, which is listed on the Alternext. He is also Associate Director and Co-Owner of Glory4Gamers, one of Europe's leading online eSport companies, which organises multi-player video game competitions for some of the most famous games around the world. Georges was with Sony Computer Entertainment in a number of senior management roles from 1995 to 2011, including as CEO of the French and Swiss divisions and culminating in the role of European Senior Vice President from 2004-2011 where he oversaw the launch of the PlayStation Portable (PSP) in 2005 and PlayStation 3 in 2007. Prior to this, Georges spent nine years at Commodore, the last five years of which were as CEO of Commodore France PC Manufacturing and Distribution. He has also held significant industry-wide roles including four years as President of SELL, France's Union of Entertainment Software Publishers, where he was responsible for representing and advocating the industry's and its 31 members' interests to the government. Charlotta (aged 52) qualified as a Chartered Accountant before spending a career in investment banking and commercial organisations, principally in technology-related businesses. She began her career at Ernst & Young in 1989, and was then appointed to a series of senior roles in investment banking with UBS, Deutsche Bank and JP Morgan both in London and Singapore, where she gained considerable M&A transactional experience.

01/9/2017 04:23 | Scooper72 - I'm into LUCE - high growth and high ROCE - results on 11/9 which may trigger a breakout from the current consolidation. | glaws2 | |
31/8/2017 21:04 | Re post 225 dated 13/4/16. It's been a great run from 250p 18 months ago to 1420p. Approaching a whopping meteoric 600% return. I'm out. Hope it runs further for all. GLA ALL IMO. DYOR. QP | quepassa | |
31/8/2017 17:07 | Breakouts seem to be good for me too - shares in demand | panic investor | |
31/8/2017 17:07 | My Motley Fool small caps 'hidden winners' has just tipped LUCE as a buy. (MF were how I first got to hear about KWS). Had a couple of bad suggestions since, but this LED tech company sounds interesting- has anyone else here looked at them? (Sorry if this is off topic for some). | scooper72 | |
31/8/2017 16:07 | I frequently buy on breakouts. Which means I am often buying at alltime highs. | grabster | |
31/8/2017 15:50 | Clearly, I was too hasty to sell earlier today. I go to quite a bit of trouble to find these potential turns in the chart, but they don't always appear. Todays had around 70-80 % chance, on my estimate. On occasion they go the opposite way to that I had reckoned on, and obviously that could be the case here. we won't really know for a day or two. The good news is that I took a great profit and left something for someone else. Also I can buy back more or less anytime the market is open, and as you alluded to above, it is risk off for me. | bamboo2 | |
31/8/2017 12:42 | Looks like I might have to wait a while for the dip the way the price has been last 2 days. Bamboo2, any more details regarding your chart? | scooper72 | |
31/8/2017 11:50 | I think I will just buy some more on the dips. Thinking to cut some of my 10% loss in PFC and add to to my KWS holding. Feels like a much less stressful option. | scooper72 | |
31/8/2017 11:28 | Well, O.K., if you're on such tenterhooks!! This implies, to me, one needing to check the share price very frequently, if not continuously, and being constantly 'on edge' as to what the next half hour might reveal. Better to invest in something you have more confidence in - or not at all, would be most people's view, I suspect. | aimingupward2 | |
31/8/2017 11:23 | Any money they have a big contract with FDEV for Jurassic - worldwide game ! | panic investor | |
31/8/2017 11:22 | TV would wipe out ZOO ! | panic investor | |
31/8/2017 11:15 | Yes, I agree. But there is still some logic if it's to do with intermittently reducing exposure to risk at moments when it looks like risk is raised. It does cost money to do that, but it's like being prepared to lose bits of money in the same way as 'losing' bits of money in insurance premium payments. | grabster | |
31/8/2017 09:25 | Yes, grabster, if you're top slicing at intervals and retaining the profits, but not if you're part selling with a view to rebuying later at a higher price. Repeated "buy high, sell higher" operations,as bamboo put it, is most likely to yield a poorer net return than just sticking put and 'holding' - particularly with a company in a strong phase of market growth. | aimingupward2 | |
31/8/2017 09:15 | aimingupwards - regarding bamboo's policy of banking gains along the way. One way of understanding the logic in that is to recall the Ann Robinson tv series Weakest Link. Contestants who failed to shout 'Bank!' at appropriate intervals, preferring to always hang on for more, often lost the chance to bank anything at all. | grabster | |
31/8/2017 09:05 | Thanks for that rivaldo - an interesting read. We seem to be in similar companies! e.g. IQE and also ACSO where I've just put a query to you. | aimingupward2 | |
31/8/2017 08:46 | Interesting summary of where KWS is at now. I feel that the conclusion below gives an idea of why there's such enthusiasm for the share: "On the longer business view, the brokers feel that acquisitions within the gaming services industry are still at an early stage and that Keywords will execute against their theses. When asked if they were looking to expand beyond games, Day told Slator “expansion beyond games but into closely aligned verticals such as e-learning, film and tv, real money gaming, etc. remains as a part of our longer term roadmap and we do already have some clients in these spaces as well as clients whose content is being made interactive through the use of VR and AR.”" | rivaldo | |
31/8/2017 08:40 | Well done, then. I'm really not wanting to criticise. | aimingupward2 | |
31/8/2017 08:36 | I had bought the lows heavily earlier in the week. :-) | bamboo2 | |
31/8/2017 08:31 | Quick response appreciated, bamboo. Each to his own, bur I can't see any rationale or sense in that. | aimingupward2 | |
31/8/2017 08:25 | aimingup, I prefer to take small profit on a regular basis. There is a turn marked on my chart for today, which I am guessing means down. Want to reduce holdings before the weekend. | bamboo2 | |
31/8/2017 08:21 | Bamboo, what's the rationale behind partly selling up and then buying back later at a higher price? | aimingupward2 | |
31/8/2017 08:16 | Took profit. Back again soon. | bamboo2 | |
30/8/2017 11:42 | Looks like people buying in advance of results next month? | scooper72 | |
29/8/2017 11:58 | I added earlier. Looks like some good volume going through at these prices. | bamboo2 |
