Hey Shag, Wow...you make me look like a Pollyanna. That is no easy feat.
Tractor, You've got FUEL's graph upside down. All time low hit on September 29, 2015 (not only 52 week low, but all time low). They compete for much of the same ad Dollars as blinkx, etc. At least FUEL are growing. Can't say that about this stinker, at least not as of the last report. My sentiment on the blinkx matter: I pray to Money this dog gets taken out by somebody, anybody, and puts us all out of our misery...just end it already.
Hi Dog. I am an optimist by nature, but a little bit of cynicism lessens the pain. I see a 2nd RNS. ( thanks JB) Re rhythm max. Spooky or what.
Fri, 2nd Oct 2015 17:00 RNS Number : 1389B Blinkx Plc 02 October 2015 RhythmOne Announces Unified, Brand-Safe Programmatic Platform, RhythmMax Next-generation programmatic platform connects advertisers with qualified, brand-safe audiences across devices at scale SAN FRANCISCO, CALIF. - October 2, 2015 - RhythmOne ("1R" or "the Company"), a technology-enabled media company that connects audiences with brands through premium content across devices, today announces the launch of its next-generation programmatic platform, RhythmMax. The debut underscores the company's commitment to mobile, video and programmatic and empowers advertisers to achieve impact and scale with consumers who are increasingly active, engaged and seeking quality content across devices and formats. Furthering the Company's mission to deliver high-quality, cross-screen advertising at scale, RhythmMax reaches over 150 million unique users a month across a wide variety of targetable audience segments in a brand safe environment. RhythmMax provides advertisers a single point of campaign execution for video, display, rich media and native advertising, across mobile, desktop and connected TV. For publishers, RhythmMax pre-screens inventory which allows for maximum inventory valuation, yield and monetization. A key differentiator of the RhythmMax platform is RhythmGuard, a proprietary pre- and post-bid filtering technology that screens for and eliminates underperforming or suspicious traffic before it reaches the marketplace. Designed to augment and complement other third-party viewability and verification solutions, RhythmGuard enables RhythmMax to offer one of the cleanest sources of inventory available in the industry. "RhythmGuard confirms true impressions and excludes non-human traffic at every point across the digital conduit - domain, publisher, page, user, content and ad-level - before it reaches the marketplace," said Dwight Ringdahl, SVP Technology at RhythmOne. "We've pioneered a technology that allows us to combat domain masking post-bid - this is a rare feature in the industry. We believe that the ability to prevent, rather than just measure fraud after the fact, takes brand safety to the next level." RhythmMax's premium inventory has deep roots in mobile and video - including coveted in-app and in-stream inventory - and covers owned and operated, and controlled supply, in addition to an extended network of publisher partnerships. RhythmMax offers flexible buying options for advertisers across the RhythmOne supply footprint, including programmatic direct and private marketplaces deals, and real-time bidding. The platform is directly integrated with many top-tier DSPs, and can also provide turnkey managed services. "Advertising-supported access to digital content that is respectful of the Consumer and impactful for the Advertiser is essential for the
I reckon that when Tosca get to 30%, they'll announce a plan to take Blinkx back into private ownership, and in conjunction with RG (10%), Mike Lynch (4.5%) and the assorted shareholdings of the BOD (c.5%), will get the required 50% needed in order to do it. They'll de-list Blinkx from AIM and re-list it on Nasdaq when the company 'suddenly' becomes profitable again. I fully expect another disappointing trading update next week that will drop the price to its lowest level for years. This will help Tosca over the finishing line and will allow JPMorgan Assets to close their short with a very healthy profit. JPMorgan opened the short at c.38-9 and it was noticeable that they didn't close when the price dropped down to 15p after the last profit warning. That's because they know it's going even lower. We'll be lucky if we get 50p per share. I say 50p because that's what the price needs to be for BM to exercise his 7 million share options announced the other month. I think they're all in it together and BM and the BOD are fully in on it. This fits in precisely with Mike Lynch's article in the Sunday Times last year, when he said tech companies like Blinkx would be better off on Nasdaq. I reckon that's why he reduced his holding back then so that it appears that others have done the dirty work, but I'm sure he'll be back in there once it's off the casino called AIM. Blinkx will be re-listed as RythmOne and will then become a highly profitable company. All these major players will make a fortune, and the rest of us will be left holding the tab. All IMHO of course.
Gdog, I notice that FUEL is at a 52 week high. That is not so bad. Why do you call it a sick puppy? Can you give us a quick summary of what is going wrong there? And does it relate to Blinkx at all? Are the companies quite similar? Cheers.
fyi
I don't think BLNX does quarterly reporting. AIM only requires reporting every six months.
Hey Kev (and all conspiracy theorists (A.K.A. cynics and skeptics)), You put a smile on my face. "They" call me a skeptic and a cynic, as if "they" are disparaging me. I wear it as a badge of honor. I am well, except I own a boatload of FUEL, and, at this point in time, the stock is one sick puppy. Fingers crossed they're turning things around...big time.
Dog. It is possible even likely that the share price would be higher than it is today. It is my view that it is being held down to enable Tosca and maybe RG to load up. My fear is that this ploy continues and the company is taken private and we private investors get very little. It would also not surprise me if the lack of good news via RNS's was part of the ploy to keep the price down. I trust you are well. Kev
Question is.. what is their intention and plans for Blinky. Still, I am not fussy, just hope they know LOTs of things we dont yet.
Still in there buying. Can't help but wonder where this dog would be without them.
I heard on a different BB that we can expect the Blinkx Quarterly Update sometime next week. Does anyone know what the agreed timescales for this were from the AGM?

This positive news....are we surprised? I pray it at least filters through to the industry and the s/p picks up. Positive news = s/p down! Well, it's Friday tomorrow so bring back the good old days and we end the week higher. In MHO Blinky have done all they can now to prove we're whiter than white and leading the way in the industry standard. Roll on when everything's fully integrated and we move back into blazing the trail well and truly into the blue! Rollercoaster share, I'm praying for the hat trick! It's hit the highs twice before...

.watch for the bounce,and a blue finish.oh,well not quite,but not far of.
Only intra-day drop.....watch for the bounce,and a blue finish.
Lots of profit taking at play I would imagine too! Must be very tempting for Traders and Opportunists who for example bought at 14.75p to cash in at 27p. We need continued 'Sticky Share Demand' and less floating shares available for short term traders
Gains today....gone tomorrow!
I thought we might have broken a barrier and with this good sounding news might have started a rally in the share price. But as quick as it goes up, it comes straight back down. Very frustrating! Wouldn't surprise me if we see 20 again. Nothing to do with Blinkx really. More to do with AIM and current volatility in markets. Only takes small traded quantity to shift the price up and down quite significantly. Short term is any one's guess. Longer term I am confident. So looking daily is crazy making.... as tempting as it is.

I particularly liked this paragraph, let's hope it makes folk sit up and pay attention. Unfortunately, as you've mentioned, no RNS, so some things still not changed! Heyhoe, GLA
My thoughts are that it looks good, but is meaningless if it does not generate decent amounts of revenue. Strange how it was not announced by RNS.
Thanks horsey Looks really good. What are your thoughts?
