'Tenby goes 'share crazy'!
TENBY OBSERVER - 25/04/03
Private share investors from all over Britain are turning Tenby into a busy financial centre. A free shares website attracting 2 million hits a week was jointly founded by best-selling author Malcolm Stacy, resident in Crackwell Street. Called ShareCrazy.com it has rapidly become a popular forum for private investors in Wales and all over the world. It is particularly busy at the moment with many city experts expecting share prices to soar after the war in Iraq. To keep dealing costs down for shareholders, the website also - very unusually - does a share dealing service at rock bottom commission rates. Before this venture, Malcolm was for many years a presenter of BBC Radio Four's 'You and Yours' programme. He has also been a TV reporter, radio disc jockey and schools TV presenter. He has written seven books - including 'Super scrooge' (on saving money), 'Winning Ways' (how to be popular) and 'Attishoo' (the story of the common cold). About three years ago he gave up London life to help run ShareCrazy.com from his sitting room in the middle of Tenby. He said
"ShareCrazy was launched because we realised private shareholders have absolutely nobody to represent them in the City…
"Much to my surprise, it has been hugely successful. We now have more viewers than many popular TV programmes…
"Thousands of people from all over the UK put on messages advising each other which shares to buy and voice their comments about the shoddy way private shareholders are treated in this country."
