L&G on the Rise?
Predicting investments and the stock market is just plain tough. Industry
analysts can often make fairly accurate predictions about the longevity of
established stocks, but many unpredictable outside influences can have an
immediate effect on the price of stocks. And for those looking for safe
investments, the unpredictably of the online casino industry is of particular
importance. The online casinos industry has changed greatly in the last year
alone, and many companies invested in the industry lost large portions of their
investment when stocks on the London AIM plummeted in the aftermath of the U.S.
online casino ban. But for one man, he has a lot of faith – and money for that
matter – in the success of Leisure and Gaming (L&G).
Neil Craven is a Swiss investor who recently increased his already large stake
in Leisure and Gaming which speaks to the fact that he must predict that the
company will only continue to grow as the online casino industry expands. L&G is
not extremely new to the internet gambling industry, in fact the betshop has
operated for several years, and from the company’s early days Craven has
maintained a stake.
In December of 2006 Craven owned a 3.1 percent stake in L&G, and from that point
on, as the company grew to match the growing online casino industry, Craven has
gradually increased his stake in L&G. Just months ago Craven had a 5.73 percent
stake in L&G which he recently raised. He now has a 6.38 percent stake – which
equates to 5.42 million shares.
