On this thread maybe but the stock has just jumped up out of the
blue to a more deserving price :-))

[cockneyrebel] 13/11/2006 14:45

That's a breakout and a half isn't it! :-)


Back to 115p I'd say - someone heard something at the AGM imo.

Quotes - you seem to be Jonny no mates on this bb - if Morse are 'encouraged with progress' for new model + trading in line with expectations do you think they are saying that they will be able to demonstrate improvement in margin per their finals statement? Company statements are often arcane and difficult to interpret but margin improvement could be the key driver for this stock. Have also noted seasonal uplift in price at xmas/new year for each of last 5 years - will be interesting to see what xmas brings this year.

And there's me thinking we would get some action today on the back
of that statement, i'm glad i have March contracts because the way
this stock trades i will need that long to get my money back and make
a profit, think some director buys are needed to get this moving again
as the mm's do not want to know with this stock.

Anybody still holding this ?

Just no logic to why this is a Sets stock when there is never any
trade and the mm's refuse to get involved !

[quotes_4_u] 24/10/2006 11:39

Last holding i can find is 17.87 mil shares held so they have increased
their stake by approx 800k shares.

I've gone long on this one too via a spread.

I dont understand why it's Sets because this seems to kill
the trade in it, if it was just mm's i think it would continue
to rise as there's plenty of nibbles in it.

HSBC rings in mobile banking

Richard Wray
Wednesday October 4, 2006
The Guardian

British consumers will from today be able to use their mobile phone to check their bank balance or help their friends or family pay for calls.

HSBC will today become the first British bank to roll out the service, which has been developed by the banking network Link and IT firm Morse. After downloading a simple piece of software to their phone, the bank's customers will be able to check their balance or find out if they have been paid, wherever they are.

The service, called Monilink, connects directly with Link's secure cash machine network, and also enables HSBC customers to top up any pre-paid mobile phone on any network instantly regardless of the network they use.
"Any mum or dad who banks with HSBC whose kids are shouting 'I'm running out of talk time' will be able to top up that phone instantly across any network," according to Monilink's chief executive Alastair Lukies.

The top-up service is free so an HSBC customer stuck with no talk time and unable to get to a shop to buy a new card will be able to top up their credit directly from their bank account. Other banks including Alliance & Leicester, Barclays, Lloyds TSB and Royal Bank of Scotland are all expected to launch the service soon.

"We've developed Monilink entirely around the needs of the consumer, who we know craves the ability to check their account when on the move," added Mr Lukies. "This platform ultimately provides consumers with a remote control for their finances."

HSBC, owner of First Direct, will provide the Monilink service free of charge for customers who want weekly or monthly mini-statements on up to three accounts. For £2.50 a month customers can also receive personalised text alerts telling them when their salary has been paid or warning of an impending overdraft. Although HSBC is not charging, the actual alerts will cost customers money as the mobile phone operators charge for texts. Each balance inquiry will cost 20p with a mini-statement costing 25p.

Linking mobile devices with a payment platform has been talked about by the mobile phone industry since the dot.com boom. But though consumers in countries such as Japan can already use their phones to pay for small items like cups of coffee, British users have been restricted to using text messaging to buy items such as ringtones or pay the congestion charge. In the meantime cashless technologies such as London Transport's Oyster card, which enables passengers to pre-pay for journeys on tubes and buses, have stolen a march on the market.

Welcome aboard CR have read your posts on other boards notably SOLA. Looks like your timing has been spot on so far. Long term chart shows spike up around Xmas/NY time virtually every year - let's hope patten continues.

[cockneyrebel] 18/10/2006 10:38

I've been buying the past few days, got another 5K just bow.

Chart loos set to move up - think these could re-test that 115p or go through it by the AGM at the beginning of Nov.

Looks like this stock is starting to happen to me.

I am hoping that the downward drift in the share price can be halted now that the holding date for the dividend has passed. Some increased volume with buys vs sells 6 to 1 on friday has not yet affected price and this has been moving in opposite direction to the market for some time.
Let's see if any upward momentum can be generated next week.

[liquidkid] 02/10/2006 09:24

Market doesn't like the new group structure - a few key personel leaving? Impaintence in waiting for another of the big 5 to sign up to Mobile ATM?
