surge in the use of credit derivatives  (Not rated)      17-Nov-06 05:46 pm     Derivatives H1 surge driven by credit -BIS
Fri Nov 17, 2006 4:00am ET
LONDON, Nov 17 (Reuters) - A surge in the use of credit derivatives helped fuel a rise in overall derivatives market activity by nearly a quarter in the first half of the year, the Bank for International Settlements said on Friday.

The volume of over-the-counter derivatives rose 24 percent to $370 trillion at the end of June after notional amounts of credit default swaps increased by 46 percent.

The growth in default swap markets came even as increasing numbers of investors netted off matching positions with contract counterparties, the BIS said.

In the first half of 2006, contracts totalling almost $4 trillion were terminated, shaving nearly 30 percentage points from the rate of growth in the market.


Game Console Wars
The video game industry's own clash of the titans reboots this week with the midnight launch of Sony's PlayStation 3 and Sunday's debut of Nintendo's Wii.

Full coverage
The rate of increase was particularly strong in multi-name CDS, a category that includes index tranches. The notional amount of those instruments expanded by 86 percent in the first six months of 2006 to $6.5 trillion, while those of single-name CDS increased by just under one third to $13.9 trillion.

Rapid growth was also seen in interest rate derivatives, where open positions rose 24 percent, pushing the market's total notional value to $262 trillion at the end of June.

While growth remained strong in all major currencies, positions in euro-denominated products increased at a faster rate (27 percent) than those in dollar-denominated contracts (18 percent).

Strong growth was also recorded in contracts in Japanese yen and pounds sterling, whose notional amounts expanded by 26 percent and 27 percent respectively.

Notional amounts of foreign exchange derivatives increased by 22 percent to $38 trillion, the bank said, with 83 percent of all contracts having one leg denominated in U.S. dollars.

Notional amounts of OTC commodity derivatives increased by a solid 18 percent in the first half of 2006 to $6.4 trillion. Contracts on gold and other precious metals expanded by 36 percent each, reaching $0.5 trillion and $0.1 trillion, respectively, at the end of June.

Growth was weaker in other commodities, where notional amounts outstanding increased by 16 percent to $5.9 trillion. The sharp movements in commodity prices in the first half of 2006 had a substantial impact on the replacement value of commodity contracts, the BIS said, which fell by 18 percent to $0.7 trillion. Equity derivatives growth slowed to 17 percent in the first half of 2006, BIS said, down from 27 percent recorded in the previous period. Options were the dominant form of contact, accounting for almost four-fifths of the total.

Simple Math  (Not rated)      18-Nov-06 11:24 am     Market-cap of Internet Capital is now 425 million. If we subtract 175 million net-cash/securites, we have a result of 250 million. This means for example: ICGCommerce = 100 million, Freeborders = 50 million, Creditex = 50, Starcite = 50 million and other 13 private hold companies are free or charge.

Everyone see on the first view the big undervaluation of the share. The 79% on ICGCommerce have a fair value of 150 millionen, the 33% on Freeborders a fair value of 125 million, the 18% on Creditex a fair value of 105 million and the 27% on Starcite a fair value of 95 million. And the other 13 private held companies have worth, too: 75 million the 41% on Metastorm, 35 million the 35% on marketron, 25 million the 36% on VCommerce, 25 million the 5% on Emptoris, 25 million the 9% on Anthem Venture, 20 million the 29% on Ecredit.com, 20 million the 39% on Whitefence, 20 million the 80% on Investorforce and 15 million the 46% on Computerjobs.com.


Sentiment : Strong Buy

 

eine sehr konserative Schätzung.

Re: Simple Math  (Not rated)      19-Nov-06 09:18 am     Why Flankenking said worth of 79% of ICGCommerce = about 150 million.

In the last quarter report we read about more than 16 million revenues of the 3 consolidated companies of Internet Capital: ICGCommerce, Starcite and Investorforce.

Revenues of Investorforce are unter one million after the sell of a part of the company. About Starcite we know, that the revenues after the merger are more than 40 million and both mergered companies are equal. That means: 20 million in the year for Starcite before the merger and 5 million in the quarter.

If we subtract the revenues of Investorforce and Starcite from the more than 16 million of all 3 companies, the result is between 10 and 11 million - the revenues of ICGCommerce. Therefore my estimate of the revenues of ICGCommerce in 2006 = 40 million (conserative estimate).

Since the first quarter of 2006 they reported net incomes - and they growth, because there a high procentage of constant basic-costs and therefore the revenues growth is faster than the costs.

The growth of the market ist about 25-30% in the year.

I believe, a 5-times-revenue is a fair number, the result a worth of about 200 million. The 79% of Internet Capital have a worth about 150 million (conserative estimate).

Maybe, he and his friend Buckley want to stop the increase of the share-price, to get a cheaper price by the next options. But I think, investors, for example institutionals, are laughing about the rope-trick of tricky Alex.


 

verkauft ist verkauft!  

nicht verarschen - denn da macht ein Director gerade einmal 3% seines Bestandes zu Geld - und zwar ganz gezielt, weil er auf Lemminge wie w... setzt. Logischerweise ist das Management nicht an einem Kursanstieg in der nächsten Zeit interessiert (an einem längerfristigen schon), da das seine Optionen verteuert.

Daher hat man den Alexander mit einer winzigen Stückzahl vorgeschickt, um den Investoren weißzumachen, dass man nicht einsteigen solle. Die Belohnung für den Alexander kennt ihr ja, der hat 300.000 Dollar bekommen, weil er Linkshare für nur 150 Millionen viel zu billig verscheuert hat. Wenn Ihr auf den Yahoo-Board geht, könnt Ihr lesen, dass ich der SEC empfohlen habe, sich diesen Deal einmal anzusehen, da er nur ein Funktion hat, den Kursanstieg zu stoppen, um dem Management auch in Zukunft einen billigen Einstieg zu ermöglichen.  

die ich vor ein-zwei Jahren schon als Leiche abgeschrieben hatte. Es brummt dort ohne Ende:

http://www.goindustry.com/de/salelistclosed.asp

Der Aktienkurs ist allerdings nur mäßig auf Touren gekommen, sodass die 70 Millionen Aktien, die Internet Capital hält, erst 21 Millionen Dollar wert sind. Hier ist aber eine Vervielfachung nur eine Frage der Zeit. GoIndustry wird an der AIM in London gehandelt und für risikobereite Anleger auch eine aussichtsreiche Einzelanlage, wobei der Depotanteil sicher die 3-Grenze nicht überschreiten sollte - eben eine interessante Beimischung zum Aufpeppen.

Freeborders don't only have chinese growth  (Not rated)       22-Nov-06 02:11 pm    
We have growth in USA, too.Today, Freeborders have about 800 chinese employers (will growth to 2,000 until the end of the year 2007)and 200 employers in USA and Europe (50 employer worked at the subsidiary NTKSoluttions).

http://www.freeborders.com/company/careers.html

Internet Capital owns 33% of Freeborders.

Because Freeborders could be the company with the highest worth of all parter companies (togehter with ICGCommerce), all informations was hidden. If all investor take notice from the facts about Freeborders, the share-price would jump and that is a fear of the management, they want cheap prices for their shares from options. We never saw anything about Freeborders on the webside of Internet Capital. On the webside of Freeborders, who informed good in the past, was all informations stopped in august of this year, because Flankenking had posted this informations on the Yahoo-Board to show all investors the wealth of this company for Internet Capital.

hier scheint eine etwas ausgedehnte Korrektur zunächst einmal anzustehen, hoffentlich hält wenigstens die 9$ Marke, wenn nicht, aber dann....wird´s wirklich heftig!
Kursziele wie hier propagiert weit über 10$ dürften für´s nächste erst einmal erledigt sein.
Meine Meinung: kurzfristig verkaufen  

scheint anzustehen...
warum wieso weshalb

wie wärs mit nem argument...

Der längerfristige Aufwärtstrend verläuft
irgendwo zwischen 9,0 und 9,5. Bisher also
nichts weiter als normales trendinternes zickzack.
gerade gab es einige hochzahlige ordersauf dem niveau von 9,7x
das könnte ein zeichen für ein settlement sein..

Boenning & Scattergood Announces Investment Opinion on Internet Capital Group, Inc.



WEST CONSHOHOCKEN, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Boenning & Scattergood initiated coverage of Internet Capital Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:ICGE) with a Market Outperform rating and a 12-month price target of $13. Internet Capital Group is a holding company that invests in and assists in the development of privately held on-demand software companies. Our investment thesis is based largely on three key factors:

   --  ICGE is trading at a 30-35% discount to our $13 estimation of
       adjusted net asset value (NAV), and its current stock price
       level values its private portfolio interests at a 50-55%
       discount to publicly traded on-demand valuation averages.

   --  The underlying ownership portfolio is gaining value through
       improving operating performance, consolidation activity and
       new investment activity, which should drive adjusted NAV
       higher in the coming quarters.

   --  The healthy IPO and particularly M&A climate is creating
       opportunities to realize value on solidly performing holdings
       and clean up underperforming holdings. Similar to portfolio
       performance, increasing deal velocity in the model is likely
       to drive adjusted NAV higher as well.

About Boenning & Scattergood: Founded in 1914, Boenning & Scattergood, Inc. is the oldest independently owned investment securities firm in the Philadelphia region.

Microsoft Rolls Out Buying Center to Support Rapidly Growing Business in India

ICG Commerce extends U.S.- proven outsourcing capabilities to support Indian operations

Philadelphia -- December 12, 2006 -- ICG Commerce, a leading procurement services provider, today announced that it has extended its Buying Center services for Microsoft entities in India. ICG Commerce’s Hyderabad Buying Center is an extension of the company’s North American buying center operations for Microsoft and supports the software leader’s growing research and development operations.

ICG Commerce has provided Buying Center services to support IT hardware purchases for Microsoft’s North American operations since 2004, helping the company recognize cost savings and gain greater control of their spend. The Hyderabad Buying Center broadens ICG Commerce’s relationship with Microsoft , assisting the company to streamline procurement processes for its Indian operations. India is a central location for Microsoft’s rapidly growing development services and IT hardware spend is an area of strategic focus in the company’s ongoing efforts to standardize the procurement process and optimize costs.

“As our operations in India continue to expand, it is imperative to put standard procurement processes in place across all of our development labs and business entities”, said Vikas Lashkari, Microsoft India’s Procurement Head. “After seeing firsthand how the buying center has helped Microsoft in North America increase visibility and control over their hardware spend, we know that ICG Commerce has the right level of experience and company and industry knowledge to help us successfully adopt the model in India.”

Buying Center services based out of ICG Commerce’s Hyderabad delivery center will provide Microsoft with leading transaction procurement processes to help end users quickly and effectively procure the goods and services they need to maintain and grow their businesses. Buying Center services include purchase-to-pay transactional support, competitive bidding, reporting and ongoing spend analysis.

“Microsoft understands the importance of providing services to their internal employees that let them do their jobs more efficiently and effectively,” said Carl Guarino, Chief Executive Officer, ICG Commerce. “We look forward to continuing to support them by providing a high level of customer service along with increased control and continued savings to help their procurement team maximize the value of their external spend.”
 

In den letzten 5 Jahren haben die den Umsatz um 779% gesteigert und in der letzten Presentation konnte man gar lesen, dass jetzt nach dem Merger mit Credittrade die Erlöse in 2006 bei 130 Millionen Dollar liegen werden (meine Schätzung lag bisher bei 100 Millionen) und Gewinn gemacht wird. Das Umsatzwachstum lag zuletzt auf Jahressicht bei 50%. Selbst wenn sich das Tempo des Umsatzwachstum in 2007 etwas abschwächen würde, sind Bewertungen mit einem Fünffachen der 2006er Umsätze ein sehr konserativer Ansatz. Dann wären wir bei 650 Millionen. Die 15% Anteil von Internet Capital wären dann knapp 100 Millioner wert - es kann auch durchaus etwas mehr sein, denn mein Bewertungsansatz ist, wie schon erwähnt, sehr vorsichtig.  

Geht auf die Nr. 17 - dort findet Ihr Creditex mit einem Wachstum von 779%:
