RE: UKNM: lastminute.com

[Andy]

I don't think it's anything to do with lmn, they have just felt the backlash

from all of the people who expected to make a fortune buying into the IPO.

If they ride it out and keep themselves focused on their business it will

work out ok. The price has fallen below the IPO offer price so I think lots

of people will now buy in, perhaps using the rest of the money they sent to

lmn for the shares in the first place, not to mention all the institutions

etc. lmn will be back up in the clouds whithin the next few months I can

feel it. Ben's comments about MLF's PR disaster were spot on though. As a

colleague in my office keeps saying, she is going to become the Gerald

Ratner of the .com world if she is not careful.

This list has been relatively quiet regarding lastminute.com, which

surprises me - we're normally quite an outspoken lot!


There's an interesting item on BBC News Online about shares in

lastminute.com plunging. See:
