So although the price is a bit high and I bought in a bit late I'm holding as it has not to date ever really dropped very far or fast. Does anyone have any thoughts about which larger companies might be wanting to take over Blue Prism given their fast rise & big potential?

Trading and acquisitions update 29 November 2016 Trading ahead of expectations Satellite Solutions Worldwide Group plc (AIM: SAT), the global communications company specialising in rural and last mile broadband, provides a trading update for the financial year ended 30 November 2016. Due to the strong performance of the combined existing and acquired businesses, the financial results for the year to 30 November 2016 are expected to be ahead of current market expectations. During the year, the Company completed six acquisitions, secured £12m of new unsecured convertible debt funding from the Business Growth Fund and completed a successful equity placing, raising £12.1m to fund acquisitions. Acquisition update The on-boarding and integration of Avonline, Breiband and SkyMesh, which were acquired in July and August 2016, is on track. Organic growth is strong, particularly in Australia, where c.1,000 net new connections are now being added per month. Additionally, distribution partnership opportunities have been identified in both Scandinavia and Australia, which will be pursued in 2017. Outlook The Company enters 2017 with tremendous scope for both organic and acquisitive growth, both within existing markets and new territories. High levels of recurring revenue, increasing economies of scale and largely fixed overheads mean the Company is now structured to deliver significant revenue growth, high levels of operational gearing and strong cash generation over the next twelve months. The Company is on track to exceed its previously stated strategy of achieving 100,000 customers by the end of the 2017 financial period. Andrew Walwyn, CEO at SSW commented, "The rapid and successful integration of the acquisitions which we have completed around the world, both big and small, show the robustness of our systems and management's ability to control growth. Our focus on increasing revenues, cost control and, most importantly, cash generation, is already starting to be shown in these results. "We have enjoyed a tremendous 2016: customer numbers have more than trebled, new products have increased the scale of the opportunity, and we have started to create a truly global operating footprint. Given the plans that we have in place, I look forward to an even better 2017."

Who's doing all the selling today?

Just bought in on SHARES' recommendation and, should have done me homework... what do you think about this? Any chance of a buyout you reckon? https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/nov/17/elon-musk-satellites-internet-spacex

Anything on smart meter roll-out I've missed in the papers, director dealing, etc??

Yeah, I read that... I thought about buying when it bottomed out but why i didn't I do not know. Cowardice, I suppose. Too late now or has it got farther to go before it bursts?

Been tipped somewhere?

I foolishly sold out on the 10% results spike, not trusting my luck to hold. Thought about buying back in, wish I had? Is this the share buyback starting? Is it over now or sustainable, in people's opinion? Should we wait to buy low again?

Up 8% from the bottom then straight back down again? Was it that people don't believe in the company, or what? And why the heck didn't I sell them at the top and make an easy few hundred quid?

...£2.5k for me and £2.5k for my Mum. good hightening lows - seems like a bargain, only just reading the Q2 now, wish I'd bought more so far!

..Or are we likely to see a lot of profit-taking? I bought in after the first big drop, only to sell again just before the second smaller drop. Down or up? Brexit or not? Thoughts?

Why is HIK down today when it's going into the FTSE 100? Are people just selling the news?
