I'm not sure on where the government is focused on the pensions plans to include stamps (SG.index), also property, but if any one is a collector like me,they must be astounded at the realisation of the stamps prices achieved on Ebay,lately, so Gibbons must feel that their portfolio's are worth more than 6 months ago already.

The supply is there,also the demand for quality stamps, It may be a way a collector and share punter combined, is shifting his profits on the recent rise in the share-markets?

I guess people doing the figures based on the recent rns, plain and simple fundimentals imo

I thought the same as Biscuit2 and Abergele. This came a couple of weeks earlier than I expected - and with more force. At the back of my mind I had a rough February target of 120 based crudely on the price chart and at worst 102 based on estimated forward eps of 6.8 @ pe 15. But looks like the pace has quickened. Wonder what's happening?

There must be a big buy in the wings surely? MMs are playing strongly to tempt some heavy sells to feed it...

[abergele] 12/11/2004 11:01

The 90-93p was taken up sooner than I thought....1 hour 10,mins.

next step, 92-95p, if the pressure is kept up.There's a familiar, 5000, buyer about by the looks of things?

My bank account at the moment :) SGI does this - nothing for months, then all of a sudden 15% in a day. No news is necessary when you can buy SGI for so cheap. The reason it drifts over the winter is the lack of news - then its a case of playing chicken for results.

Huge bounce off the 200 day MA.

Vot's occurring?

Not a bid, surely?

[elmfield] 12/11/2004 10:43

rather nice surprise, what's up?

[biscuit2] 12/11/2004 10:11

To be honest I didn't think we'd see such a sudden move at this point in time, thought next month maybe. However I'm not going to complain. If they can get it up to £1 again at this stage then it bodes well for the run up to results in the New Year.

Let's not go there - the wife's looking over my shoulder with my coffee :-)

I suspect the market makers are trying to move the price of this share to around the £1 mark but won't do it all in a day.
You can see that it is the M.M. moving it today,same as yesterday.

Whats the position of this on the riser's board, another 10-15K of buys should see it at 87-89p spread. then next step 90-93p
.............................IMHO

[alwaysphoto] 12/11/2004 08:25

The price is just ticking up on every single buy at the moment

[orange1] 11/11/2004 20:58

And there was me a couple of months ago stating that SGI had got out of Provide Commerce at just the right time .... well they are trading at $ 30 today, following well received Q1 results!

[nurdin] 11/11/2004 18:27

I dont hold any by the way, having sold at 103p.But do have a soft spot for the Company and will probably buy back in again soon.

[daza70] 11/11/2004 18:20

lol - Good interest today. I think it will be up again tomorrow!

[nurdin] 11/11/2004 18:13

Told them to hang on to the shares but they wouldnt have it! Ah well

[cambium] 11/11/2004 18:01

fell off me tree daza

[daza70] 11/11/2004 17:59

Just had a look at the PRVD price for old times sake! SHOCKED. Take a look

[macaw4] 11/11/2004 17:04

Well, they did drop below the 200 day M.A. for the first time in living memory.....

M4

[xdavid] 11/11/2004 17:03

There was a 22,429 share buy @ 78.5p at 11.10 which does not show on my Advfn screen (free one) and the MMs would have known beforehand about the "single protected transaction" of 75,000 @ 82p clocked in at 16.28. Someone likes these prices!

Seems to be a bit of a rally in small stocks the last couple of days. Nice to see majority green figures for a change :-)

[gregory0106] 11/11/2004 16:14

Comdirect now have bid price at 79p - quite a move today from my purchase at 77p this morning - I can't believe my small 5k shares sparked that much movement, there must be something in the background for the mm's to move prices so much in a really short time span.

Anyone any ideas what may be happening??

[addas99] 11/11/2004 14:47

I asked the company 3 weeks ago if they intended issuing a trading statement prior to year end, they replied that they had no plans to do so.
