To be honest Bumpa the whole aim market is the Wild West full of smoke and mirrors and the main indexes aren’t much better so don’t get to deep just trade what I think is a good story and a cheap valuation worked extremely well for me over the years I’m more psychology based than belief based maybe the past had a bearing on that.

123Trev - Akers took an interest here but he’s not much cop in my view, then we had Luke Johnson, who is - but has been passive, and maybe that was his intention, he still holds. now we have this Chris Kenning who isn’t an investor by nature afaics. His Stubben Edge Capital I think holds the key. He is growing the Stubben group at some pace…

[bumpa33] 17/7/2023 12:09

Yep, when the bubble burst they (Killik) made the fatal error of doubling down and then some… 😳😳!

[123trev] 17/7/2023 12:07

Pmsl thinking about them strange days selling here for a 25% profit seems ridiculous.

[123trev] 17/7/2023 11:54

Kavanagh that was the guy he mentioned a stock and it seemed to rocket Bumpa always made me money for a while but I agree lost a lot of folks their hard earned.

tomboy the company still trades today Batman advanced communications but after the bust it got involved in supermarkets lol. I think a while back it raised some capital and is back in technology space.

[bumpa33] 17/7/2023 11:47

Israeli tech iirc…

[tomboyb] 17/7/2023 11:43

2p to £44 is nutx -

Can't remember BVC =

[bumpa33] 17/7/2023 11:43

Might’ve been Kavanagh, I can’t remember the exact guy…

[bumpa33] 17/7/2023 11:38

Ha, Infobank was one of mine - trebled my money, only to watch it go over 40 quid - before crashing to earth… Or BIRD, formerly Forbidden Tech - the frenzy on that IPO was astonishing, but then there were loads of crazy situations - all those internet incubators that shone, only to later crash too.

[bumpa33] 17/7/2023 11:35

mm’s shut down buying on moving the offer out and the spread wide. They are short of available stock…

[123trev] 17/7/2023 11:35

Definitely but there was a specific guy that really moved stocks in a big way for a time and I can’t remember his name but what a crazy time that was. I can remember feeling sick when I bought BVC for 2p I think and sold it for 12p and I think it got to £44 I’m sure even today I think that wasn’t real I made it up.

[bumpa33] 17/7/2023 11:27

Killik played fast and loose during the dotcom frenzy - and lost a lot of people a heck of a lot of money. Remember it well.

They went very quiet for the next decade…!

[123trev] 17/7/2023 11:20

Think I sold to early here but a good profit is not to be sniffed at. Duralacher what a blast from the past and a valuable lesson on analysts and valuations anybody remember that guy from Killic&co probably spelt that wrong but he certainly moved stocks at the time but I hope this keeps going up gl.

[coley15] 17/7/2023 11:11

FOK? Certainly a discouraging spread

[still waiting] 17/7/2023 11:04

FOK for big blocks now.

Tick tock.

[bumpa33] 17/7/2023 08:42

No offer at 2p here… very well bid.

[1savvyinvestor] 17/7/2023 08:26

Nothing available to buy though

[still waiting] 17/7/2023 08:05

Full offer now but still cheaper than CK buy in price.

[still waiting] 16/7/2023 12:43

Their aim is to go for bigger acquisitions now(they were last valued at £175m I think ), having tradeable paper might assist ?

[coley15] 16/7/2023 12:26

SW - what are thinking?

[still waiting] 16/7/2023 11:57

I see the stubben edge group of companies have all recently been charged up with HSBC

A few days after CK appears here.

Mmmmm

[bumpa33] 15/7/2023 11:58

gepetto - I was thinking more of the incredible rise of Durlacher in the internet boom as it functioned as a boutique finance house for a slew of dotcom companies. Inevitably when the bubble burst it suffered in tandem until like you say it was swallowed up at a fraction of the price at its height. But boy did it’s star burn bright for a few years…!

[still waiting] 15/7/2023 11:03

What happened with Durlacher ?

I think it hit £2bn m cap at one point 😆


Durlacher, whose market capitalisation touched £2bn at the height of the technology boom.

[gepetto100] 15/7/2023 10:57

Bumpa - the only problem with that was a reverse takeover of Durlacher and reformed as Panmure Gordon & Co. plc part of Lazards. Hmmmmm

[gepetto100] 14/7/2023 18:51

Moving with the times and the climate - looking good
