another markdown! suppose it's to be expected in this climate...

[targatarga] 29/11/2007 14:41

during the last two trading sessions these have ticked up near close. What about today?

[targatarga] 28/11/2007 23:03

interesting chart me thinks...

[veryniceperson] 23/11/2007 16:30

If it is tipped expect a large rise Monday morning.

[veryniceperson] 23/11/2007 16:17

Reakon it seems that way, four little buys, but enough to push them up four.

[targatarga] 23/11/2007 16:02

late friday rally, are these about to be tipped? regards

[targatarga] 18/11/2007 22:27

three quid here we come.....

Make no mistake the timing in mid November and confident tone within the statement are huge indicators for me. This suggests at least 16p eps for 2007 now and continued growth next year even without the looming shareout of work for the big aircraft carrier contracts. Truly well underpinned with cash and excellent growth and as the directors state 'An exciting 2008' .

Only mid Nov and trading significantly ahead announced - great news

[felix99] 16/11/2007 20:47

Very nice read!

So what causes a stock to quickly appreciate in value? Fundamentals? News? Management? Well yes, to a degree. But what REALLY moves a stock price northward that you just purchased?
Answer: A Huge volume of buyers having been directed to the emergence of that stock by a qualified service which has a reputation for doing so. THIS service does:

shhhhhh Don;t spread the word . Keep this gem to your self

[targatarga] 16/11/2007 14:52

So what is the new p/e ratio going to be? Strange that no one appreciates this as a growth stock. These should be trading at a premium. regards

[veryniceperson] 16/11/2007 13:37

Chasing stock, buy 2k and up they go. 2nd on the gainers board at the moment.

[veryniceperson] 16/11/2007 13:12

Should have brought earlier Matt, if you look back you can see they have always been very bullish. But don't worry they will drop again.

[matt] 16/11/2007 13:06

How annoying when a company come out with a positive statement whilst you watch and hope they drift lower!

[veryniceperson] 16/11/2007 12:51

Now this is more to my liking with confidence for 2008.

Out of favour, it's the times.

PER of 8x perfectly possible, decent stock or not.

[matt] 14/11/2007 20:04

Good long uptrend

[targatarga] 14/11/2007 18:52

in the past one reasonable buy [5000] shares would turn the tide....

[davidosh] 13/11/2007 23:17

At the current price of £1.64 the forward p/e is 10.6 as the company are on course for the eps forecast of 13.6p and then 15.4p in 2008 which is very steady year on year growth. I think that deserves a higher rating especially as there is nearly 40p net cash likely by the year end. The enterprise value is very low indeed for a company with a huge and steadily growing order book.

[veryniceperson] 07/11/2007 09:41

It would be nice to get a trading update at some point in time, very thin on news flow. Hope things are going well.

[targatarga] 25/10/2007 22:39

this board is unusually quiet. Price moving down on miniscule trades.... I assume these will resume their upward trend very soon. regards
