RE: [uk-netmarketing] Urgent...

[Ian Collingwood]

James - 


I may have got completely the wrong end of the stick, but my understanding

is that this is what http://www.nothing-ventured.com/ was all about -

letting people to use the web to launch IPOs and thus allow

non-institutional investors to flog their shares without waiting for their

certificates. This was especially valuable in those golden days of old when

IPO prices could be expected to peak right after launch. 


I would imagine that in more recent times the same argument applies to

people who need to dump their Dot-turkey stocks as they plummet inexorably

down below their offer price.


I seem to remember the whole thing was backed by Durlacher's.  


Hope this helps


Cheers


Ian
