The Trend is your friend, as they say. Bottom is difficult to call here - though my instinct tells me that the convertible bond price of 40p has something to do with the recent weakness and should provide a sensible floor.

Either way, it seems we have a rare flower here on this day of blood and mayhem on the markets: one of the few blue's on my screen.

It wasn't meant as a slight to refer to PINN as "new-tech": I am sure the product/technology is very much cutting edge. However, whilst I accept the market is there for what they offer, I am not yet overly convinced they will succeed in developing the business. Their niche is not obvious to me and I think they will get squeezed by competition.

Hello all,

I am thinking about possibly sticking a few quid in here,I like the story but feel they may drop a bit yet,I will watch and let you know when I buy.

I have a big investment in PINN,a couple others also I see here,

PINN are a profitable company,and expanding all the time,a bit like STP but without the profit bit.

Longshanks,

I think you may find that PINN is very high tec,its the way you have to be in the world of telecommunications.

I wish you all well.

some more decent trades today and hopefully the rally could be just round the corner, fingers crossed as this moves up!

[longshanks] 17/5/2010 12:02

cheap as chips here.

I like the look of PINN - but it just seems a little too "new-tech" for me to want to take the punt right now.

STP is - IMO - far better placed for growth as an integrated telco provider.

Tara, just to make the point that I am not trying to lure anyone away from SPT. I've been invested here for a couple of weeks now as I am particularly interested in the telecoms sector at the moment.

[snickerdog] 15/5/2010 17:09

Brewster, are you already in PINN? I hold a few STP as it has to be worth it at these low levels but have been heavily into PINN for a little while and as you can see from the new thread I have nearly finished, I am very bullish on them.

I think that there is a lot to be said for the sector over 2010 especially with growing the SME client base. PINN is my favourite though and I would be very interested in hearing some of your views over on the other thread.

Tara...if ur still abt ? Pls can you take a look at PINN. Just thought i wud give u a great tip :-) DYOR. Your feedback is appreciated.

[martin44] 13/5/2010 20:06

Pretty positive the 'bounce' will come soon!

[longshanks] 13/5/2010 13:06

illiquid stock and the MM's are trying their best to cope with a heavy "forced" seller IMO.

It is either that or they have a large order to fill and are trying to induce panic selling by holders to satisfy the requirement.

As martin44 says - you will only be able to buy these whilst the market is unaware of the unfolding story. I am nursing a paper loss which hurts but am still confident that the fundamentals here are very sound and will come good in time.

I do run stop losses on some investments but seldom run them tight with AIM stocks - especially those like STP which are uber-illiquid.

[martin44] 11/5/2010 16:44

longshanks - Agreed once the story get's out there should be a much greater positive mood about this one...good luck with your buying!

[longshanks] 10/5/2010 17:10

I have been buying a fair few more of these over the last week and will continue to do so at these low prices.

RSI is showing STP to be terribly over-sold and ripe for a re-rating once the selling is done. A bit nerve-wracking to see the price continuously drop but I am consoled by the embedded value. Lets hope they can pull out some decent results in the next month or so to bring in some decent institutional interest.

[martin44] 04/5/2010 22:31

Stick with it and make money sell early and lose money on this one!

[longshanks] 04/5/2010 17:04

Someone is dumping but must be desperate for the cash to be doing so at these prices: the fundamentals of STP are very sound.

This is getting soooooo cheap, now - valued at less than the cash they raised last year from the convertible loan notes.

oracle28 - As part of the streamlining he is no longer there as a consultant as the business does not require duplication and then remove cost from the business and making even bigger profit.

[oracle28] 30/4/2010 19:02

Good to see some decent volume today......

[tara7] 30/4/2010 11:51

Well some one has just bought a few, the last accounts talk of a good few months ahead, so, my view is its just small selling, [that we have seen in this stock in the past.]

[oracle28] 30/4/2010 11:19

martin44 what does your guy at mobotel think about the company, business?

[oracle28] 30/4/2010 08:53

What is going on here?????

What makes you so positive martin44?

I'm tempted to dump the lot just like everyone else is......

[martin44] 30/4/2010 08:48

Only wish with the little dips occurring that i had spare cash to buy more STP!
