This should propel Aurora. Looks like a great move to acquire them: http://www.twst.com/update/60510-pace-plc-aurora-networks-partners-with-telefunken-communications-to-launch-fiber-based-fast-internet-services-in-germany
1215 - 1300 ... 60 trades ... = .... 1 x '0' sale ........ a quick profit taken, T4T? ... The 'balance' .... 59 x 'A' mixed .... overall a strong buy scenario ATM! DYOR
Uncertain, erratic, bipolar, scitzophrenic traders/computers or just plain fun-loving pace shareholders. Hold onto your seat for the next ride on this rollercoaster!
Nice!
That's Radio 4 ... whoops
Some interesting information on battery technology, apropos mobiles and car's etc. At 8.30pm Peter Day discusses future battery innovation, including superfast recharging.
Hi George, I suspect the major factor is uncertainty and a collective desire to sell. Fundamentals seem to be unchanged, a consolidated market has higher risks associated but I am sure ATTs decision to takeover DirecTV was not driven by a model for reducing sales. On the other hand, if the news was of technology failures I would be concerned. Just a great opportunity to chip in with more IMO.
I was asking the same thing on the ocado board. Maybe just the way it is and will rise soon. What i did notice was a lot of stocks dropped and pace held up quite well but maybe a delayed reaction lol Anyway i am taking full advatage of the drop.
On anyones thoughts/views as to why this has retraced so much on account of the AT&t and Direct TV link up or are there other factors as the fundementals look OK to me....Or is it just overvalued and overbought after ths steady climb and due a pull back
... somebody regulated the MM - daily mass manipulation's aimed at Auto trades - totally 'trivial' numbers, often fewer than 500, talk about feathering a nest! No wonder the supply of Lambo's has a long waiting list .... cynical, Moi? Yes, labouredly, IMHO!
Emotions are frothing on the Nasdaq as punters get a dose of the heebie jeebies. But with respect, the Pace 3 month chart remains positive and all that on the back of a blistering 12 months. I would say that the Pace board should reflect on the dividend. Investors do take considerable risks and if Pace are to convince investors of their business credentials, a 2% dividend would be a fitting jesture.
Held a small amount of these for a while- could not miss this opportunity to top up (well bit more than a top up). Only market overreaction to technology pulling this down so will soon return.
Hi Marth I read OTB's post soon after, ID'd the special LSE log-in for a single post, and drafted a reply much on the lines of both you and 'dumbdog'. Spam posts being outside my experience, I can understand a post with 'recognizable' hallmarks, being so interpreted. In my naivety I accepted it as genuine, but due to the dated SP, not from a current shareholder. I paused, realizing that here, posters and most 'readers', are cognizant of today's SP and PIC's current place in the world economy, and desisted! However giving OTB a reason to repeat post .. 'eating your hat' - presumably 'live on air' [:-), is excellent! Should it be necessary, I will be quite willing to contribute to a straw boater style, 'XL Pizza, with extra topping for the crown', how mouth watering is that? No, not for me either, but better than straw, felt or flowers?[:-) Regards 'L' PS. The 'nom de guerre' 'Outsidethebox' ..... cue, a 'delinquent' set-top-box shareholder'?
Bonsoir laguerre - I'm normally a tolerant old soul but that post had all the characteristics of a spam post linking to DirectorsTalk - i.e. recently registered with just the one post - not too common on LSE thankfully but ADVFN has at times been plagued by such links and false IDs to this particular aggregator site. AND it was ancient - hence my brusque response! If OTBox is a genuine contributor, I apologise (and I'll eat my hat). Best wishes to fellow travellers...
Hi Outsidethebox. Welcome to this chat board.. Please don't be misled by any critical comments here, generally the posts are polite, though sometimes incomprehensible![:-) Choosing to log-in to LSE's chat boards specially to post on PACE, can hardly be criticized, even if the info was/ is dated as some posters opine. The piece you kindly drew our attention to, was accurate of it's time, but PACE has traveled 'a wee bit' since then. Not to get too comfortable, but positively it reminds us all, how much more suited PIC currently is to the C21st. IMHO, DYOR.
It would be very helpful for the less linguistic amongst us, ie only speaking, reading and writing English, if posters would please read and double check their input BEFORE hitting the POST button!
Well said dumpdog JP Morgan is living in the past keep up lol. Pace is in a very string place fir the next two or three years at least. If people takenitice of JPM I for one will be buying as many pace shares as I van get my hands on.
Thank you for sharing this with us. I have to say the analysis from JP Morgan is flawed in respect of the fundemental market offfering from Pace today. I would say 3 years ago the set top box made a leap forward by realising its destiny was to become a home server. The old idea was the set top box sat underneath the tv and decoded the satelite signal or cable signal for the tv. This old idea is what JP Morgan are basing their analysis on. In this scenario the smart tv and ipads would be a threat. But Pace's home server is very smart, check this out! The home server connects wirelessly to wide-screen tvs, ipads, pcs and any other wireless devices (printers etc) in different rooms. The home server decodes terrestial, satelite and cable signals and with no fuss offers video or web based content from global media providers. It is clear that the potential for Pace's home server is grossly under-estimated and why I predict continuing strong performance from this company.
In fact you seem to have registered on LSE just to bring us this DirectorsTalk recycled spam. Which is exactly ONE YEAR out of date, hence the 290p target. Thanks anyway! Alexander Mees made these more recent (i.e. Jan 2014) comments: “Global demand for set-top boxes has been resilient through recent difficult economic conditions. The evolution of technology towards hybrid devices and media servers is a development of which Pace is at the forefront,” http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2014/01/09/faster-pace-set-top-box-maker-bets-on-u-s-growth/
Hey, I don't normally contribute to this chat, but I wanted to check folks have seen this from citywire.co.uk: Will 'smart TVs' kill off Pace? Fears that the emergence of web-based TV services will spell disaster for set-top box maker Pace (PIC.L) are overplayed, according to JP Morgan analyst Alexander Mees, who argues that web access in developing nations is still much too slow. Internet-enabled devices such as 'smart' TVs will eventually end the need for set-top boxes, Mees said, but this scenario is still some way off. 'Substantial investment is required to improve high-speed broadband coverage across much of the world. It is unlikely that a majority of the population in any of the BRIC nations (to say nothing of other emerging markets) will be connected to high speed broadband before 2020,' he said. On top of that, Pace has plenty of scope to evolve its product offering as the TV delivery standard shifts. 'The emergence of the hybrid media server is an example of a technological evolution that is likely to decouple the trajectory of Pace’s earnings from the life cycle of the traditional set-top box,' he added. Mees's target price increases from 269p to 290p, and he reiterated his 'overweight' recommendation.
Last week saw Noel Edmonds making the case that the BBC's license fee does not sit well in today's media market that is now diversifying with increasing maturity. In fact the BBC is very well placed to expand into the global market place should it adopt a subscription based market offering where 3 billion potential customers are. The BBC's time is running out though and Facebook will enter this sector in the medium term. Facebook need no encouragement spotting opportunities that are being presented by Pace's Home Server technology. Today they purchased a company for $2bn that offers an upgraded virtual reality product in a rerun of the 1980's craze. While to concept of virtual reality has challenges for user acceptance, the sophistication of the gaming experience will act as a counterbalance. Meanwhile sales of Pace's Home Servers will be driven.
Hi Laguerre, Yes, Pace has been a natural target for MMs over the years attracting the attention of the Church and Arabian princes with a few £10Ms burning a hole in their pockets. All adds to the intrigue!
Is something kooking? Difficult to ignore on today's menu{:-)
Dumbdog, Another point of view - Its been pushing 3 weeks since the good news added circa 10%, are MMs taking advantage of PI's who list 'sell' and 'buy' values for auto trades, by rolling SP to and fro, initiating business in order to fatten their trading wallets .... ? IMHO the undulating SP sticks until the MMs have enough for their annual Caribbean Cruise.
