    Traditionally MEDIA does very well out of recession, but TNI is 6 times its bottom
    I HOLD MONY which has at last taken off,partly due I think to the special div (mid SEPT)but has only doubled.
    YELL is difficult to assess due to massive debts
    JPR I also HOLD has become a talking share but is struggling and I will JUMP as soon as decent profit realised


    I agree about Yell but would be tempted back in @ 20p ish

    i did buy at 14p and sold ages ago at 25p made about 2k (in weeks)
