1.5 million just gone through the market without a budge in price ...... seems to be above the mid-price and thus could be a buy I suppose? Someone taking a stake? Any ideas anyone?!

Company says figures should be out soon, but to be patient. Obviously no one knows whats in the figures yet!
I'm just as anxious as anyone else but can't give you more than that.

GAIN
Go to ft.com front page, tick 'quotes', then trw in box for company name, then click on trw for transware (choice of two with trw epic), then 'analyst estimates' (two-thirds down the page).

what affect would further write downs have on the share price

[johnv] 14/9/2002 21:10

This company is acting as though its had a profit warning already. I expect we will have increased numbers with the usual future forecast of uncertainly in this enviroment etc, ,etc.,,

[jnbrw] 13/9/2002 22:28

johnv - I agree they have been very enthusiastic about TRW in the past (one of their tips of 2002 I recall ) . Their last update a few months back offered reassurance suggesting there was no real reason for the fall.Yet all is silence from them and from the company! The share price has been decimated (from the mid sixties around New Year to the state we are today. Funny how things can change so much! Agree with others on this thread that results are certainly going to be interesting when they finally come!

Regards

True, isis, but they could have bought/made noises before they went into the closed period.

[gain] 12/9/2002 08:31

welshanalyst do you have a link to that analysis on ftcom?

[isis] 12/9/2002 08:29

Directors can't buy until figs are announced as they are in a closed period.

[thamestrader] 12/9/2002 08:26

If things were going swimmingly well, the company would have made some positive noises, and/or the directors would have bought shedloads of shares. Unless I've missed something, neither has happened.

[isis] 11/9/2002 18:25

They mentioned Erudigm 1.1 was launched in July & that third party problems were not theirs.
But the shareprice seems to be saying a different story - so I just don't know what to make of them at the moment.

[isis] 11/9/2002 15:54

A year ago this amount of buying would've put 10p on the share - I can't fathom where all the frigging stock has come from.
Also they should've issued results notice by now, Company told me they are definately due in September.

[the jitters] 11/9/2002 15:43

Second one is a market maker to market maker trade.

[thamestrader] 11/9/2002 15:10

Hmmm.
Some action at last?
Two more 100k ?-trades this pm, the first one looks like a buy, the second doesn't.

[contract note] 10/9/2002 14:28

biggest buy some one likes a gamble or knows more than they should

[isis] 07/9/2002 17:32

I am miffed at the fall in the shareprice with no profit warnings or any obvious write-downs it is baffling - they are also still plugging away at the e-learning exhibitions & the sector as a whole isn't doing badly.
