Mmmh......... LDC is a sexy story and often they are best bought when everyone has given them up for dead.... They are low..... but well above their 5yr lows - i.e more air needs to be let out of the bubble.... but LONG TERM ( :cheesy: ) they should do well!

UK PLUS listed investee Peach Blossom Media (PBM) has announced it is to delist from PLUS and apply to list on Malaysia's MESDAQ Stock Market. Shareholders in PBM are being offered the opportunity to swap their existing shares into shares of the new Malaysian holding company. London Asia has offered to acquire for cash the shares of those who do not wish to participate in the share swap, at a price of 24p per share.

This is the second of London Asia's investee companies which is seeking to list on MESDAQ, following the recent successful float of MyEG. London Asia Capital Plc merchant bank is listed on the AIM. The MESDAQ stock market is a much better market for Peach Blossom Media to list and trade on, which in turn should benefit London Asia.

the talk in London is that the Merchant Bank is well worth following.

...

Really? funny, I've never heard anyone at any of the half a dozen prop trading desks I talk to mention this....


Please tell me this board hasn't become a puffing post? i.e some fine young fellow buys a stock then puffs it up via the internet.

Hi City Trader The internet on its own will never build up any share, as you require the large investors to get involved, and they never invest without research on a company that they could be interested in .. Now when a company has a good product then given time the rest will follow… then as you say buy on the red… LDC is trading down at this moment in time… red!!. that’s why some persons are talking… LDC not for Gran at this time…

d2d I vaguely remember some case a few years ago, where by a tech stock was being ramped on a bulletin board ( Hemscott maybe?) and it was investigated and traced back to the individual concerned. Pretty sure a fine from the FSA followed. I'm sure somone smarted than me will have all the details.

I have23 open positions now, including 1 which I view as a total no brainer ( i've built up a 0.5% stake in the company) yet I would never dream of broadcastiing any of these positions .

It's quite possible that Merchant bank is a great stock , but you might want to think twice about diseminating information.

Good luck.

DTD,

Jupiter, Gartmore, Axa. Could these possibly be underwriters/sub-underwriters who can’t shift the stock and therefore have stuck it in their discretionary clients’ accounts?

Naw, those days have long long gone - dumping unwanted stock into clients accounts!!

If those 3 funds, have as you say, unwanted stock from an underwriting then I'd guess it's going to take a long time or something major to move this price.

CT Many thanks for your kind advise.. I do understand just where you are coming from.. My posting of yesterday on LDC was true facts sent to me direct from LDC.. My reason for posting at all is always to give the true facts on a company Good or bad.. As I read so many times information on notice boards that is un-true tittle tattle ramped made up information day after day by a group just talking .. I run a share club and we can only work on true facts for the club to work for all of the members..
