But, the question is why? With XLM. THE STOCK HOLDERS ARE ALWAYS THE LAST TO KNOW. THE SMALL ONES THATS IS. !!!

[creditcrunchies] 30/4/2019 18:59

it's typically a huge block being sold and the order doesn't show until the close but it is manipulation because all you see is buys throughout the day. That's the problem with AIM it's the liquidity if you own too much of a small cap when you sell you need to find buyers so the order isn't visible until the end of the day

[wetdream] 30/4/2019 18:41

Would that definitely be a buy?
Couldn't that be the worked sell?

[petes5] 30/4/2019 17:48

Disgusting. Who are the mm s for XLM?This why i have been investing less and less in AIM stocks.

[hatfullofsky] 30/4/2019 17:34

4,900,000 buy at 48 after hours.

Simple and blatant manipulation

[creditcrunchies] 30/4/2019 17:00

You never can tell in the AIM market as long as you keep it small it could reap rewards

[scooper72] 30/4/2019 15:18

Just bought a few.

[creditcrunchies] 30/4/2019 13:06

Working a large sell order in the background then

[eagle eye] 30/4/2019 12:20

Looks like an institution is selling.
6 MM on 50p bid, with BGEO 51p offer, 3p inside everyone else.
Hope this helps.

[petes5] 30/4/2019 12:16

Looks like a lot of buys and yet it keeps dropping. Then again this is often wrong. Why I bother paying for these services Is beyond me.

[hatfullofsky] 30/4/2019 12:15

Very Strange - only buys being reported

[sophia1982] 30/4/2019 12:13

Any news that can explain this fall?

Ontario government seeks to end online gambling monopoly
12 April 2019
Ontario’s Conservative government has revealed plans to end the current online gambling monopoly and also legalise single event sports betting in the Canadian province.

In the 2019 provincial budget, the government has said it intends to establish a competitive market for online legal gambling “that will reflect consumer choice while protecting consumers who play on these websites”.

The proposed market will include both casino-style gaming and sports betting, with the government set to consult with key stakeholders to set out how the new-look market will operate.

Ontario currently operates under a monopoly system, with the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) the only approved operator to offer igaming via its PlayOGA.ca website.

In the budget, the government also sets out its desire to legalise single event sports wagering in Ontario, quoting a number of leading individuals in the North American professional sports market who have previously backed the motion. Currently only wagering on multiple events and parlay betting is permitted.

NHL ice hockey league commissioner, Gary Bettman, is among those that support such a move, saying that a level playing surface for wagering betting is in the best interest of the NHL’s own sports betting landscape.

“With two NHL franchises in Ontario and two right on the border with the US, Ontario is a very important market for the NHL,” Bettman said. “Accordingly, the NHL does not object to the Province of Ontario's initiative to offer single event wagering when it is permitted.”

NBA basketball commissioner, Adam Silver, has also given his backing to legal single event sports betting in Ontario, saying that such regulation would help to protect fans and the integrity of games.

Silver added: “Should the Federal Government permit betting on single sporting events, the NBA would support the Province of Ontario offering this form of betting, subject to appropriate safeguards. The NBA has agreements with multiple licensed international gaming companies that incorporate these safeguards and can help provide a roadmap for Ontario.”

Major League Soccer commissioner Don Garber and Canadian Football League commissioner Randy Ambrosie have also voiced support support for Ontario's plans.

Meanwhile, the government also used the budget to set out proposed changes for the OLG it said will help to create new jobs, provide opportunities for businesses and improve access to gambling products.

One such proposal includes upgrading OLG lottery terminals and expanding its lottery retail network in order to provide more interactive gaming experiences. Consumers could also soon be able to purchase products such as Pro-Line and Lotto 6/49 using their smartphones.

The government is also keen to enhance the retail experience by making it easier to purchase lottery tickets at grocery store check-out lanes at select retailers. In addition, plans are in place to expand and upgrade existing casinos, as well as open new facilities in Pickering and Peterborough.

Ontario’s government is also keen to work more closely with professional sports leagues and teams such as NBA franchise the Toronto Raptors to provide players with greater gaming experiences and entertainment.

In addition, the government will now allow casinos to advertise complimentary alcohol. The government said that this will help to create a level playing field for Ontario casinos and allow them to compete more effectively with facilities in the US.

nice bit of traction gl

[danieldruff2] 01/4/2019 05:58

Can't recall any company buying back shares as a lead into delisting. The ones to watch out for are those that were floated by owners who still own a big stake, circa 30%... I think something like FFI will likely delist. As for XLM, they just need to grow profits instead of shrinking them and they'll be over 100p very quickly.

KM85,
Good post. Thank you.

Hi all,


I was at the Private Investor meeting yesterday. It was nice to see the Management and the shareholders. Few points and notes were taken.


1. The company will continue to buyback share of 10M and might buy more shares BUT that require shareholders approve on April or May 2019 (When the annual shareholding meeting)
2. The company could easily hit the 2019 numbers before the reduction of 30M of sales but that would not help the situation of 2020 and therefore they decided to reduce the media activates from the begging of the year rather than the end of the year. Important note from Ory as he is saying the 30M reduction of sales would bring about 7M in EBITDA or 2.5M dollar in profit and he said that very low margin. So, I think the Huge sales decline would not really makes a huge impact on the operation or net profit.
3. Ory was honest about the difficulty of 2018. One dude asked him about his feeling when the stock declined like 70%, he said like no one like seeing his share dropping but he made a clear view that the market was not fair when the business was at peak and the market valued was like 12x earning. So, I said welcome to London AIM Market, you should move to Sweden where Better Collective and Catania listing there shares, and they are like 2 to 3 times higher market Cap than us, but our business has brought profits the same or more than theirs.
4. The Personal business is now 8% of overall sales and it will be growing nicely from there.
5. Regulations seems to be positive in EU, regarding the US he is super positive about the states and he thinks the 7m Investment in 3 years will bring very good results. He said 2019 and 2020 no huge sales will come from the US gambling market but after that the US gambling affiliate sales might equal or exceeds the EU sales. The company brought about 70M of gambling sales in 2018 in the EU market, it might be another 70m or so from sales from the states in couple of years?
6. He Is super happy about the Swedish regulation market and He thinks it is the best market at this point and XLM running lots of media ads in this market to support the publishing sites.
7. Some of the sites start recovering but still needs some works to be done, the management was not ready and prepared to protect the sites but now he thinks they are ready.


I asked him what the direct profit margin of personal finance is, he said it is like similar to sport betting and around 70% after salaries and cost. Then, I asked him again how much have we invested /Bought the personal finance sites? He said about 30m. from that I did the calculations and realised that the personal finance sites brought us nice return on capital. Like 6% of overall sales is about 7.02 M and 70% Margin is like 4.9m operation profit or 16.4% operating return on capital invested or acquisitions. I think more money to be made from those assets as XLM will add more finance products(Loans) and will charge more commission when XLM send them more deals.

I was impressed OW at the event today. Spoke with intelligence & expertise but also honesty about the challenges & the need for the business to refocus. The share buy backs will continue & in fact they want to spend more. Nice big dividend to come soon too. The US will be a huge opportunity in the next 5 years, & XLM is getting ready for that now. Overall I am pretty optimistic & reassured about the company's future.
