I've held this share for some time and am considering my exist strategy. Its seems to be creeping up, I guess towards the ex-div date. Does anyone foresee, economic, political or otherwise any reason for a large(7%) drop in shareprice before mid Aug?

What's behind the rise? UK market and Sterling heading south, but still Iomart continues to rise..

The market is always disappointed with the results, no matter how good they are. I suspect there will be a small drop followed by a continued increase. Brokers are still expecting £3.40 and I see no reason why this can't be met this year.

any reason for the rise? dont want to get ahead of myself but the orderbook does look good...

Does anyone have any ideas on what's going on? Everything I've read points to a bullish year in the cloud computing industry...

I'm not worried, looking at the past drops, has take a few weeks to settle...can't see a lot happening over xmas and new year,

Personally I think it's already happening! expecting a zigzag back up to 285-295 then some horizontal coasting until an offer comes in...though worse case, offer doesn't come in, customer base gets eroded share price plummets..though I'm backing the former.

anyone got any thoughts on when the rebound will happen?

Apologies, was agreeing with the comment below, i.e. "I think we'll get a chance to buy this again at well under 250..." though I don't agree with "well under", more likely 245-255 currently thinking about at what point to re-enter. Microsoft and Amazon entering the cloud market does concern me a little from a short term perspective, though long term, I can see an offer being made. Compete or buy out, a lot easier to buy, take on the existing customer base, plus all the expertise and push on from here.

agreed. I got out just before the results and plan to buy back in at sub-250. Expect a period of stagnation, but it should start heading north again early next year. Not for the faint hearted, but a good share for the mid-long term.

Because they are at or close to the Ask price.

Yep with you there. I've sold 50% mainly to protect against CGT, though it is tempting to buy back in...before it's too late. There were some huge buys yesterday and the purchase of United Comms only makes them stronger.. Going to go out on a limb and say £3.30 high tomorrow.... **IMHO please DYOR

I actually was expecting this rise, though I don't expect it getting much higher than 310-15 between now and results. Just sold 50%, no idea what is going to happen on results day. Honestly, my gut feeling says down, 10-15%, then quickly back up and over 350 early next year...then a bid buy one of the big boys. Cloud computing is the way forward, and more governments and IT companies are finally catching on.

every time it looks like its about to break, another few thousand limit orders are added.. annoying. Should fly though as soon it it breaks. Next level seems to be 302-305 then 310. At least at the moment.

Been watching this all day, I'm still waiting for a bid price of £2.96 before I can exist. Based on pure observations and no new market news I can't see it getting much above £3.10 before results.. but who know's short term it really could go either way. I'm banking on £310 by 02 Dec, a small dip on results, £2.75 (topup) then up to 350 May 2015. Just my views, nothing scientific.

Hi -there appears to be a large amount of sells going through i.e. 5 million+. I've never seen the likes before, but the share price doest appear to be moving in response. Anyone have any idea what's going on? Happy with my position, just a little confused.

Who is buying up 185k of shares? does somebody know something? better than expected results tomorrow?

*exit..

I may be missing the point here, but the spread is 2.85-2.95 i.e. 10p .When ever there is a sell, the trade price is going to drop to ~2.85, then when there is a buy, it jumps back up to ~2.95. The last trade price is not the value at which you can buy or sell. If you are looking to exist, monitor the bid price. I'm sorry if this is obvious..

I guess the questions are, 1. where is the share price going to settle? 2. when the interim results come in will we see another flash crash or an increase! I for one am getting out at 305.00, though £4 could even be possible by Q2 next year...easy to get greedy.
