[from8to800] 21/9/2016 09:52

Does anyone know when the next statements and/or results will be published? Stock is getting rather quiet now. Was expecting a bounce after this pullback to the 10 week moving average.

3 decent sized director buys announced today. I suspect the bottom may be in here (and in MVI, by extension). The Paragon buy seems more interesting the more you think about it. Here's hoping.

Woodford buying another 7m shares...just need the results next month to be positive and we'll be off to the auctions!

Read Zeus Capital's note on BCA MARKETPLACE PLC (BCA), out this morning, by visiting hxxps://www.research-tree.com/company/GB00BP0S1D85

"We note the recent underperformance of the shares of late, and believe the current price to be an attractive entry point for investors. There has been a lack of news flow since the H1 results in November, but we believe the market dynamics remain positive for it to execute its strategy. Ahead of FY results expected to be announced on 28th June, we believe the market dynamics remain positive for BCA. We would expect to hear an update on strategy and how the Group is expected to work more closely with vendors, which we believe represents a major upside opportunity. It would also be interesting to hear about efficiency gains in its logistics business following the much needed increase in capacity following the Stobart acquisition...."
