This share will move when their trade show meeting details are published. The App technology they have produced is in a trending market, therefore in demand. I can see this share growing to 8-10p within the next 2 months...
I've held DDD for some time now having decided not to sell , watching the sp plummet and thinking that such technology will surely come good in the end ( 3D without specs and all that ).I have no idea what that last posting was about and wondered if there is anyone out there still following this stock who has any idea how things are likely to pan out here ? Declaration: Modest holding, big loss, no complaints.
If you only heard a whoosh you didn't get it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSnLz_jIEqc
very small trades, a 20 and a 4, one costing £1.28 and the other 26p. So what do we make of that?? An economics class playing at share purchases, kids with pocket money who maybe have an inkling something is up, or signals? I cannot think that 2 in close succession could be s.o. buying in tranches, or getting the wrong no, first time round!!
Has anyone questioned why Paul sells and Nick buys while the CEO conveniently gets his salary without promoting this stock? Please tell me that we have a cohesive board looking for shareholder value
big sell..... could that be the blackrock one............
seems to be bottom here i think...closely watching!
That may be true but does say a lot about our society. This is a sorry example. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/10/08/san-francisco-train-shooting_n_4066930.html Due to near zero interest rates and Quantitative Easing (aka legalised counterfeiting) then we will be in this deflationary cycle running a risk of hyper-deflation. When the central banks realise that they have got it wrong then they will be forced to pump huge amounts of cash into the real economy cause massive inflation. At that point the cash the banks have been hoarding will be added and we will go from huge deflation to hyper-inflation. It will be food and basic needs that will take the sheeples interest not ipads etc.
I agree, and you can add Kingworldnews and 24h Gold onto the list, that we are in the doldrums for the forseeable, but I just think that there are lots and lots of people for whom upgrading phones and computers are one of the last things they will economise on, and when one breaks there is no way you cannot replace it or you are right out of the loop. When you replace you tend to upgrade- not least because swifter connection times and so on are seen as time- saving, All children in all schools have a computer, and I really cannot conceive of that changing, especially as the price comes down over time. Even tramps often have a phone or computer. Gone are the days when it is seen as any kind of luxury. In many cases it is the cheapest way to communicate with friends and relations. In the case of relations in Australia, staggeringly so. Think of seeing relations on skype in 3D, or teleconferencing, or combining that with the kind of robotics that iRobot is working on. Saves on airfares, and the boss can see what is going on from afar!!
You do know we are in a world global depression biggest we have ever seen only hidden by massive QE by all central banks? Troubles in America? Cyprus? Greece? Pensions stolen? Just look at the following websites and before you think they are mad, look at the bio's on these people saying this. Billionaires, ex-governmental top officials, world bank whistle-blowers, fund managers with huge portfolios sick of all this fraud. Take a look and then you decide because this can not be sorted out. We are past that point. http://www.maxkeiser.com/ http://goldsilver.com/ http://www.silverdoctors.com/ Good luck. BTW type in "deutsche bank trouble" into google and see what you get.
It's not really about the middle classes. Computers, i-pads, whatever you get your games on, are not a middle class luxury, but a standard necessity these days. Even people on the streets sometimes have one. Furthermore though the middle classes might be contracting here, that is countered by places where they are expanding Even in the worst case scenario "bread and circuses" would not be taken away. People who are gaming or watching films are not rioting now, are they? are they?
All the best guys. I have been a long term holder of DDD but decided to sell my large holding so that I can invest in stocks that I believe will do better in the coming world financial turmoil. The reason why I’m selling is that I believe to OTC Interest rates swap is failing and this will lead to global hyper-inflation. I expect major banks to fail especially Deutsche Bank (I believe DDD bank with). Deutsche Bank has derivative exposure to $55 Trillion dollars. I have made DDD aware of this fact. I expect the middle classes will to be on the losing end of the greatest wealth transfer in history so I can’t see how DDD will generate revenue. This is the same as the vast majority of companies. I will keep looking at DDD once the dust settles and hope to buy back in if DDD will still be around. I hope so. Good investing.
Share price up due to Director buying. Let's hope more significant buying from other Directors too. A high share price benefits all especially when it comes to deal making.
many buys coming , trying to watch this share and also a c p as buyers getting back there to ,ddd still has a lot of buying pressure and may rise more a t b
I got out at 21 having bought at 23 so not a disaster but a loss none the less, Sad to see this happening and its well oversold.I`d risk another small punt but not sure where the bottom is, this sp only seems to be going in one direction at the moment. GL to all holders. TP
100% at 14p after coming back in at 17p. Overall not a great investment for me. sorry to see it at 5.5p. too afraid to rebuy now. GLA
DDD converts any 2D image automatically in real time into 3D across a wide range of platforms. Their technology has been designed to be future proof lending itself to changes in future technology. So DDD bring 3D to the industry and public. PC’s are not DDD’s main market since the majority of visual image watching is via handheld devices and TV’s. The progress of DDD is subject to hardware developments not only displays to bring a sharp image since the image is reduced by ½ for each eye. The 4k and smaller handheld screens allow that. Currently, TV hardware is about 3 years away from producing 3D images that are good enough quality for our brains and eye resolution to not be able to discern greater resolution. DDD has been around for 20 years so talk about demise is laughable. They are becoming a defacto standard for 3D with many barriers to entry and the biggest global presence they have ever had. Only when 3D becomes glasses free will it take off and this is about to happen with glasses free products soon to enter the market. DDD’s content library is a great source of recurring revenue stream and also provides another barrier to entry with DDD being world leader in the 2D to 3D conversion. DDD won’t run out of money since there is enough backing in the industry for them but profits will be at the mercy of hardware progress. However, when the hardware is ready and content to watch then the uber high margin DDD makes will mean those will be rewarded for their patience. However, I do believe now would be a good time for those DDD Directors to buy significant amounts of shares to show confidence in the company. I hate exercising options.
How long is their cash going to last at the current rate of losses? The full impact of the PC downturn has not yet been felt. The figures released are only up to end of June. The royalties are forward looking as they will be based on wholesale/distributor sales and not retail sales. The PC sales are still falling fast as tablets and smart phones take over. It won't be long before the revenue stream from PCs dries up completely. The cash burn should increase to quite a fast pace. My guess is that the next six months to a year will be critical in DDD's survival.
you really think this will drop down to 4p?
Below 7p now. The next support level is around 4p.
Could a 22% drop be a good time to jump in? Yes sales are down but this is mainly due to the PC market which isn't a major suprise with the tablet market growing so much. If they've recently launched their tabled 3D offering surely sales will naturally rise and take over the PC sales? No debt either which is a bonus in this day and age. Thoughts..??
Yes I am from Australia and been in this stock since early 2000, seen some good announcements and also some good direction....wondering what the hell they are doing
About time that we saw some positive reaction from those running this show. Shareholders own this company and we should understand why this negativity is affecting our investments
17 September 2013 DDD Group PLC DDD receives GBP575,500 investment from InterDigital Los Angeles, California and Wilmington, Delaware: DDD Group plc (AIM: DDD; OTCQX: DDDGY), the 3D solutions company ("DDD" or the "Company"), announces that on 16 September 2013 it placed 7,039,760 ordinary shares of 1 pence each in the capital of the Company ("Placing Shares") with a wholly owned subsidiary of InterDigital, Inc. (NASDAQ: IDCC) at a placing price of 8.175 pence per share raising approximately GBP575,500 before expenses (the "Placing") equivalent to the average closing mid-market price of 8.175 pence per share on the five days before and including 16 September 2013 (being the latest practicable date before this announcement). The net proceeds from the Placing of approximately GBP568,500 will allow the Company to continue to develop its business activities related to the HD and UHD video processing technologies recently announced by the Company. The Placing Shares have been placed with InterDigital which has made this strategic investment at the same time as entering into a joint technology development agreement with DDD as separately announced today. Following the issue of the Placing Shares, the Company's existing issued share capital has increased by 5% from 136,628,812 shares to 143,668,572 shares. In accordance with the requirements of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules, DDD's issued share capital as at 23 September 2013 will consist of 143,668,572 ordinary shares with a nominal value of GBP0.01 each, with voting rights. DDD does not hold any ordinary shares in Treasury; therefore, the total number of voting rights in DDD is 143,668,572. 143,668,572 may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, DDD under the Financial Service Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules. Application for the Placing Shares to be admitted to AIM has been submitted to London Stock Exchange, and it is expected that admission will take place on or around 23 September 2013. Commenting on the Placing, Nicholas Brigstocke, Chairman of DDD, said: "It is a pleasure to welcome InterDigital as a strategic investor in this placing, which validates the latest technologies that have been developed by our research and development team to address key requirements in the growing markets for streaming high definition and ultra high definition video content. "The separate development agreement announced today with InterDigital provides the Company with a strong partner with whom we can further develop these new technologies." Enquiries DDD Group
