What an idiot!

I don't trust that 'Encarter' chap. Probably part of the dodgy 'management' at MBL.
The rubbish businesses purchased are obviously fraud. 15% of a pile of completely unrelated trash owned by his wife with a different surname? £2 million quid. What a pile of dung. Regulators should see that such conmen get locked up. It's the petty criminals that go to prison and this is completely wrong.
If an example was made of a few arrogant bloated wotsits there would be a big reduction in this nonsense. Hang a few fat 'untouchable' gits from on high and watch a significant improvement in AIM company governance. Can't see it happening apart from in my dreams. Shame though...

At least someone did ok out of this mess...

[encarter] 24/3/2011 22:30

Must be worth £1m which is half of market cap. share price is ridiculously low imho, think I will become a shareholder.

Whoops, thanks for correcting me - posted in haste.

Yes, GMV - the jewel in the MUBL crown LOL. ;o)

[miamisteve] 24/3/2011 09:31

MBL own 100% of Global media vault. 15% is for U-explore only.

[strollingmolby] 24/3/2011 09:23

Max - true, but certainly not enough to justify a £2m valuation on MUBL's 15% holding...

[maxcashflow] 24/3/2011 09:17

Thanks SM, very interesting.

Latest from GMV just appeared in their Press Room:



February - MWC 2011
I'm delighted to announce the launch of a new product, our very own Pricing Spider. Throw your product file at it, tell it the websites you want to price match against and off it goes, scurrying across the Internet like a hyperactive arachnid to gather all of the required numbers. Once the information has been collated the client is presented with a lovely spreadsheet containing all products, the price they're selling at and the price of all defined competitors. It's also, handily, colour coded to show whether you're more or less expensive than the competition. Aside of launching this exciting new product we attended Mobile World Congress again, and had a productive time. We met clients, suppliers and prospects and marvelled at the world's first 3D phone, plus an array of competitors to the iPad. An underwhelming lack of content again, with the 'app zone' a particular disappointment. March is looking good, and we hope to announce a shiny new customer - keep your fingers crossed. It's great to be building out our UK customer base, and adding clients in the Middle East. A new Digital Retail Kiosk prospect in South Africa is shaping up nicely - more on that when we can.

The upside is, no costs to pay and no CGT on the unlimited profits.

Looks like the share price has settled now. Lets see how much cash they are getting from Morrisons, my guess is £12m.

[typo56] 23/3/2011 08:29

I didn't think there were many spread bet companies who took bets on £2m companies. I wonder who encarter uses.

The downside on a spread bet is worse than the downside with shares. You can't offset the loss against CGT and you have to pay finance interest.

Davidosh said:

We will all be in a position to understand the way forward when that news is out and i intend to arrange a conference call so that we can ask all the necessary questions.

Can I ask if this is still happening David?

[timesmoney] 23/3/2011 08:05

It's worth £2m for a reason. Anyway encarter thanks for giving us a bit of entertainment while we wait for the final death scene. Strangely quiet from a lot of posters who have defended mubl for the past year or so.

[encarter] 22/3/2011 22:59

Timesmoney,yes I can say the same. But I don't hold any stock, I opened a spread bet. Imagine being able to open a spread on a company worth just £2m. The rewards could be phenomenal with minimal downside.

Typo56, you mis-understand. By 'in the know' I mean they have the best knowledge of investment, they are the professionals.

[moathunter] 22/3/2011 12:07

The fund manager that encarter refers in post #3765- Ennismore- are a small company running a couple of funds in a "value" oriented way and [as a result] have a very respectable LT track record.

They're certainly held in higher esteem IMO than many funds, but they do diversify over tens of companies, so others here might want to do the same (don't sink 20% of savings into MUBL).

[typo56] 22/3/2011 11:15

encarter, given your knowledge of libel law, would you consider it libellous to infer that someone was buying on information that isn't in the public domain?

Personally I doubt they are anymore "in the know" than Sefton Group were last year!

[timesmoney] 22/3/2011 10:45

encarter. Go ahead fill your boots!
So long as you have the same investment profile and resources as the fund managers you follow, you will be fine. However to them its a fun punt with small change where the results either way are immaterial. Can you say the same?
And remember these guys are so good at what they do, your pension is worth sod all!

[encarter] 22/3/2011 09:48

Those in the know are buying.

[encarter] 21/3/2011 07:38

Pretty Polly want a cracker?

[timesmoney] 20/3/2011 12:14

encarter, CR was right, you are bonkers.
You also have no idea if the directors have broken the law or not. Do you know them? are you involved with them?
All that has been said by angry shareholders (who didnt care when things were good) is that now in the light of recent events that they would like to know more about the related party buisness and the UExplore deal. Yes the inference is that there may be some smelly stuff, but that is not libelous. We know the directors look at this bb (see posts from Birdsofafeather that were removed) so they are free to defend themselves if they feel they need to. Dont quote the closed period which is complete nonsense.
