P; you don't need to be an accountant to see that ADVFN would be profitable if it just stood still as a British 'cash cow' business that kept its admin/expansion costs to a minimum.
Britain needs innovative business's more than ever before now as our traditional manufacturing base dies because of unfair competition. I was just reading for example that China imposes hefty import duties on many foreign goods as well as other restrictions and yet has a huge trade surplus with countries like Britain and the USA.
So, why don't our stupid politicians impose hefty import duties on Chinese goods or at least demand a big revaluation of the yuan?
