EDSN einen Zock wert, Kurs 1,40 Dollar

Edison Schools ist sehr intessant im Moment, abgestürzt von 30 auf 1 Dollar.
Es ist aber auffällig, wie kräftig Bewegung in die Aktie kommt.
Diesen Monat gab es schon 5 AdHocs, die letzte von gestern.

Chelsey Capital to Consider Lending More Money to Edison Schools

BOSTON -- Chelsey Capital Partners said it will consider making additional loans to Edison Schools Inc. (EDSN, news, msgs) should the for-profit school management chain need them.  

"Chelsey has a long view," William Wachtel, general counsel of the New York hedge fund, said in an interview Tuesday. "To the extent that additional capital is needed, it's certainly possible that we'd provide it. We intend to support the company qualitatively and quantitatively over time."

However, Mr. Wachtel said he hopes Edison will avoid the need to seek additional funding by becoming "leaner and meaner." Edison, which already owns nearly $100 million in charter school land and buildings, should steer clear of further capital-intensive real-estate investments, he said.

Chelsey agreed last week to lend Edison $30 million to fund its takeover of the management of 20 Philadelphia schools and expand its presence in other school districts. Edison also received $10 million from Merrill Lynch & Co. ( MER, news, msgs).

Edison, which began managing schools in 1995, has not yet turned a profit.

EDSN musste steigen nach der Meldung, morgen gehts weiter hoch.

EDSN habe ich auch auf der Watchlist - die letzte Adhoc hatte ich aber leider nicht mitbekommen.

Edison Schools (EDSN:Nasdaq - news - commentary - research - analysis), the nation's largest manager of public schools, was up more than 59% to $1.56 after the company said it had secured $40 million in additional funding from Merrill Lynch and Chelsea Capital. Edison, which has been hammered recently over financing concerns and news of an informal Securities and Exchange Commission investigation, will use the new credit lines to fund school launches in Philadelphia and other cities this fall.
und diese Meldung ist auch nicht gerade positiv:(Kündigung durch Committee der Wintergreenschool,eines Modellvorhabens der Edison!)
3.Juni:Dissatisfied with a lack of services from Edison Schools Inc. (EDSN, news, msgs), the committee overseeing the only Connecticut school run by the beleaguered New York-based school management concern has recommended that the company's contract not be renewed when it expires on July 1, 2003.

The move involving the Wintergreen Interdistrict Magnet School in Hamden, Conn., is another blow to Edison's bid to reassure investors and recover from a high-profile setback in Philadelphia, where it was recently chosen to manage 20 public schools, far fewer than expected.

Serving kindergarten through eighth grade, Wintergreen marked an early bid by Edison to prove that its methods and curriculum could succeed in the public- school arena. Edison has run the 590-student school since 1998, when it was opened by a consortium of four New Haven, Conn.-area school districts under the auspices of Area Cooperative Educational Services, a regional education agency also known as ACE.

Wenn die von den Banken 40Mio$ bekommen, dann hat das ennormen Einfluss auf den Kurs, der ja gerade wegen den SEC-Ermittlungen so abgestürzt ist. Die Banken haben schlieslich auch kein Geld zu verschenken.

Gruß Doc Broemme

ein Zockerwert, natürlich. Aber Kicky, der Markt hat immer Recht,(mein Lieblingsspruch derzeit) trotz aller Bedenken ist EDSN heute durch die Decke gegangen. Wer die Leitung aller Schulen in Philadelphia übertragen bekommt, kann so vertrauensunwürdig auch nicht sein,
Merryl L. verschenkt kein Geld, bin ich mit Dr. einer Meinung.
Hauptschulen sind auch in Deutschland ein Problem, ein Retter der Bildungsmisere in Deutschland würde hier auch mit offenen Armen empfangen werden, PISA lässt grüssen.

von voriger Woche erholt.Es erstaunt mich ohnehin,dass man Public Schools durch eine Firma betreiben lässt,aber natürlich gibt es in USA keine Beamten als Lehrer.Trotzdem sollte man berücksichtigen,dass die vermögenderen Familien ihre Kinder sicher auf Private Schools schicken,nicht auf Public schools.
Guck die mal CHTT Chattem an,die fand ich heute ganz interessant

nicht.
Lasst Euch von Zit aufklären.

Eine Bank führt eine Kreditwürdigkeitsprüfung durch und
vergibt an eine Privatschule keine Kredite aus
reiner Wohltätigkeit.
Business, nur Rendite zählt.

Ja dann ist es doch ein gutes Zeichen, das EDSN frisches Geld bekommt.
Ich hab Bekannte, die Ihren Bachelor in den USA gemacht haben, natürlich muss
dafür bezahlt werden, das Bildungssystem in den USA kenne ich schon.
Passt mal auf, nachhher steckt noch die Bill Gates Foundation Geld in
Edison Schools.

Neues 52-Wochen-Hoch nach Anhebung der Planzahlen.

Chairman of the Bord laufend?

Like Thomas, Edison Schools is turning on light bulbs -- the mental kind. It manages more than 130 public schools (some are different grade levels on the same campus) in 22 states and Washington, DC. The charter and contract schools have an academy-style focus, as well as longer school days and school years; some offer summer and after-school programs. However, the company is generally given the worst-performing schools with which to work, and results have been mixed. In addition, the company has yet to make a profit. Edison was founded in 1991 by CEO Christopher Whittle, famous for his advertiser-backed TV news broadcast, Channel One, shown in some US public schools. Whittle owns about 22% of Edison's voting shares.

und hier die Konkurrenz Bright Horizons:
At Bright Horizons Family Solutions, every day is "Bring Your Child to Work Day." The firm is a leading provider of workplace childcare through some 390 onsite centers in 36 states, the District of Columbia, Canada, Guam, Ireland, and the UK. Bright Horizons offers emergency backup care, before- and after-school care, summer camps, vacation care, and elementary school (kindergarten through fifth grade). The company also manages independent facilities for others. More than half of its centers are accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children. Bright Horizons operates day-care centers for such corporations as Motorola and AOL Time Warner; it even provides child care at the United Nations

und wer verkauft hier dauernd ?der Herr Director Schmidt,zusätzlich über Merril Lynch und Insider Form 144  www.nasdaq.com/asp/...ymbol=EDSN`&selected=EDSN&FormType=form4

Na Mod da klär mich doch mal auf, mir welcher Seite Du arbeitest.
Ich gucke eigentlich nur bei NASDAQ.Com vorbei. Nach Börsenschluss ist After Hours interessant, Pre Market ist doch erst Morgenmittag gegen 15.00 Uhr MEZ
interessant.

Vorher würde ich nichts unternehmen, denn wer an einem Tag schnell steigt,
kann wieder sehr schnell am Tag darauf fallen.
Amis nehmen sehr schnell Gewinne mit.
Nichts ist sicher, Binsenweissheit natürlich.

Im Grunde genommen durchschauen wir diesen Wert nicht.
Nur der Hinweis, dass ein Kredit vergeben wurde und dass es sich um eine Privatschule handelt, spricht dafür.

Das aber ist aus meiner Sicht zu wenig.
Mehr Infos habe ich von drüben auch nicht bekommen.

Viel Erfolg bei dem Spiel!
Vielleicht klappt es, vielleicht auch  ....

Viele Grüsse

Das kennst Du sicher:

Ja ja, so kanns gehen, ich lass mir nix ausreden.

Gott sei Dank schau ich mir das nur noch aus der Ferne an.
Und als US-Expertin: Ist CNC.NYS pleite?
Ich will da rein, völlig wahnsinnig zwar, aber meine Zocks liefen besser als meine langfristigen Investments.

Conseco May File for Bankruptcy, Dow Jones Newswires Reports
By Vivien Lou Chen
Carmel, Indiana, Aug. 7 (Bloomberg) -- Conseco Inc., the insurance and finance company whose shares have traded below $1 for the past two weeks, will probably file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection or reach a bankruptcy deal pre-approved by creditors, Dow Jones Newswires said, citing analysts.

``We are increasingly skeptical that it will be able to avoid seeking formal protection from its creditors,'' Salomon Smith Barney analyst Colin Devine was quoted as saying.

Conseco, which has a $300 million bond issue due on Oct. 15, has said it probably can't meet all its debt obligations due by the end of next year, according to Dow.

Conseco spokesman Mark Lubbers had no comment, Dow said. He couldn't immediately be reached.

aber wird heftig diskutiert bei www.clearstation.com im Bord,extrem heisser Zock,würde die Finger von lassen,die wollen noch nen Kredit von einer Bank und wenn sie den nicht kriegen ist es aus.
