Cmo Share Discussion Threads

This legal dispute thing does worry me and obviously worries other holders judging by yesterday's fall. Solicitors charge a fortune for this kinda work and it could really dent there full year figures.

Without that hanging over them, this stock would probably stay comfortably above £2 but any bad news on the litgation front could send it well below that level.

Time to take profits again and move on. Hoh hum.............

Looks like management tried to hide the legal dispute way in the report (when will they ever learn that this always has a negative effect). Volumes today are pretty light (largest trade is only 4,000 shares) so no real indicators yet as to real investor thinking.

Goes to show MMs for what they really are, opportunistic, market manipulating and grasping...how can anyone rate this at 1.80 on week and then 2.20 the next with no news....I'm keeping my shares for when they get back up to £8 again...

These have perked up nicely this morning, have Techinvest reiterated there buy recommendation? Results out next Tuesday.

For those who operate a stop-loss of 20% as recommended by most leading professionals, it sure makes life difficult when MMs manipulate share prices on tiny volume. As tempting as it is to sell out, I am keeping hold of my Comino shares as I think this a is a great little company.

I didn't know about this bit of legislation in another market comino work in - social housing.

Apparently 'The government is determined to increase the choice available to social tenant through its push for choice based lettings systems. To this end all social landlords must adopt this approach by the year 2010.'

And they have made a tidy profit too so who can blame them. The only downside I can see might be the old adage about travelling in hope is better than arriving with so many small company share prices getting mashed post results. Whatever they deliver it seems that MMs just mark them through with a red pen regardless in most cases these days.

[gzr] 17/10/2003 09:36

I'm not worried about that, they obviously found a buyer willing to take their remaining large stake.

[kouneli stifado] 17/10/2003 08:45

only worry is why constellartion sold, hope they havent heard any thing bad

[gzr] 17/10/2003 08:24

Absolutely flying, not surprising after yesterdays news, that's really taken the lid of the share price. EPS was 8p last year, 11.2p forecast for next year and over 15p for 2005. That is some growth rate, hopefully we will see a rerating like Staffware have enjoyed.

[kouneli stifado] 17/10/2003 07:56

Looks ready to run ahead of figs

[kouneli stifado] 16/10/2003 20:52

wow, 25kbuy at the end

[gzr] 16/10/2003 16:30

This could clear the way back up to their recent highs with pre-results buying. They had nearly 60p per share of cash in the last results and the last eps forecast I have seen was for 11.2p per share. Hardly expensive considering the growth.

Explains the rise. Overhang of shares that have been sold has now probably been cleared.
