Thanks doggy,

An international broker like IBKS,
Will take a look, otherwise it looks like I would need to Open an Account with a UK Broker with access to US Stocks.

Do any u.k.-based investors on here have any holdings of shares listed on the Nasdaq and/or how easy or difficult is it to buy/ deal there?
Different brokers will have rates of their own.

The trading update doesn't really show how much Unruly have contributed, apart from a privileged access to News Corp inventory, and that Unruly works with 95% of the AdAge 100.

The disparity of treatment towards blacks/whites is concerning enough, but we recently saw huge security failures, how could a mob rampage unimpeded through a government building in the first place and interrupt proceedings? The police themselves appear to be politicised.
A complete contrast to the highly visible show of force the president repeatedly called for against left-wing and BLM protesters.
The chief of the US Capitol Police, Steven Sund, had initially defended his force in a statement on Thursday - describing the actions of law enforcement as "heroic" and their plan robust.
But within hours his resignation was announced, alongside the departures of the sergeant-at-arms for both the House and Senate.
Absolutely unbelievable, how low the USA has sunk.

Left-wing America, I doubt it will last long.

Storming of the US Capitol

If the protestors had been black there would have most likely been mass-carnage after an overwhelming use of force by the authorities.
That really says something about the USA itself.

Republicans have lost control of the White House, Senate and House of Representatives.
A Democrat government could have a negative impact on stock prices as investors factor in business-unfriendly changes such as tougher regulation, higher corporate taxes and so on.
The markets will settle down after a typical knee-jerk reaction.

wouterius quoted the following:

2020 net profit: 3 mio usd

2021 net profit: 35 to 45 mio usd

wouterius,
A jump from 2020 net profit of 3 mio usd to 35 to 45 mio usd in 2021 seems a bit far-fetched on a revenue (predicted) of 475 mio usd in 2021 against 400 mio usd in 2020.

Depends what sounds right:
I have never dreamed of untold riches - past participle
I never dreamt it would happen - past tense

A modest dividend wouldn't hurt anyone.

Bigger brands like Google, Amazon, and Apple have been slow get onboard fully with GDPR compliance.
I don't see how Tremor have to be worried about 'exposure'.
As for CTV coming of a low base, well it's not so low now is it.
Advertising budgets were already shifting away from TV to digital (streaming) before the coronavirus.

£100 million achieved by spending a lot less.
Not sure of the exact figures but if we had the confidence to follow suit we'd be rich beyond our wildest dreams.
I dreamed last night or I dreamt last night?
One for doggy!

The reason for the recent increase by Tosca?

RNS shows Tosca increasing to 24% on 30th December

Actually you learn more by having failures, the problem is that many adults can't cope with failure, whereas kids are not so bothered, they are full of optimism, unless punished by adults for not getting it right.
stt1 doesn't understand the reality and keeps trying to punish us.

doggy,

Where there's a will there's a way.
The mindset is crucial, and a determination to succeed, despite many failures.

I see two factors at play here:

1. The observation that years seem to get shorter with age is simply due the ratio of experienced years vs. the current year.
To a 12 year old, this year is about 1/12th of his life experience; to a 46 year-old this year is roughly 1/46th of his life experience. 1/12 = 8.3% of his life. 1/46 = 2.2% of his life.
So, compared to a 12 year-old, a 46 year-old's year is roughly 4 times shorter.

2. If we are happy and absorbed by many experiences, then time speeds up.
When we are depressed or suffering a closed down state of mind, (prison, torture) each moment is painful and crawls by.

doggy,

More pieces of the pattern fall into place as we age.
Fools fall into their own trap and will never learn.
None so blind as those who won't see.

I am late 65, I feel better mentally and physically than ever before.
Okay so the odd ache in my bones from hard work.
Nothing wrong with that, it's part of the territory and we have more staying power too.
I enjoy good company and will help anyone I bond with.

I dislike negativity and people who have too many issues.
Why do they try to abuse us and push their problems out?
It's a kind of bullying.
I don't see the point really.

Where light is received then light is given.
