Day traders need all the luck they can get. I hope my advice kicked you out of KESA. At the end of it all; the current price is probably the best they are going to get and they will push up the bidder as who goes for the opening price.

Check out Carclo and the thread as this is a company who has excellent growth possibilities and will move along this year but can double within 12 months.

Best of luck

elmendigo .. well back from work ... this morning came back from bathroom getting changed looked at the screen price touching 360 .. well up ..was kind off amazed at my good luck ..this cost me about a minute ...the price began to come down tried selling online at 355 ..rejected as it was moving lower eventually closed out at 337 ..it then moved up to 345 and stablised for bit

i can't grumble with that although it wud have been nice to closed out near the 360 range ...well if we all could buy at low and sell at high's then we all be stinking rich ..so hence happy with the return.

i had two bites at the cherry ..agree bit risky now holding out for a improved offer ..as u know these things don't always work out as people hope they will .. i agree the reward from here on in will be low in comparison to the potential downside shud it fall through ..

though if the private equity group are serious about things then will be come back with a better offer of around 345-355 ..

am pleased i have been due some luck this year and looks like i got it on this one..

good luck mate

Day traders are doing well. Good going; it took some nerve to jump in at that price. with 25 million shares traded and a £3.60+ price you are doing very well. Us poor investors just hum along.

You seem to be playing the right strategy. KESA is a sleeper. Even my friend at Dixons couldn't see the future in the electronic retail trade. Unfortunately, he is holding Dixons and left it too late for KESA. Alliance and Leicester need to get a firm statement from the French bank or at least an indication of what direction they are going in. There are still other small banks that can buy.

Wait and see seems to be a good idea. Day trader; I am not.

elm ... what a day ... true to my word i have taken profts on kesa today .. i know it has more to come ..i think ur theory about takevoer etc is fairly strong ...no smoke w/o fire etc ... however i can't complain about rise from 270 - to 290+ .. plus voda been gud to me ..

i've not gone for a & l due to the spike .. i expect the ftse to correct a little over the few days ..before testing 6000 mark so i'm going to patient wait for a correction re assess to the stocks i've been monitoring and if the price is right then i'll look to buy ... but vl look to exist the market if it approaches 6000 mark ..as it'd anybody's guess which way it'll move after that ... if there is one thing i learnt over the past few years is it good to stay out at crictical points and not to predict things based on hope etc..

i hope u had a gud day as well ... still monitoring kesa

One step forward and two steps back...and even some big leaps
both ways seems to be way of it lately. So when I found this I was
so impressed I'm passing it along!

Everything is on the move. Just sit there and chose what you want to run with. A&L have really high volume as does KESA. Even KGF are moving along.

Just WLW seemed to lose their momentum.

thx elemndigo ... current merger and acqusition (m & a) activity will continue to drive the frse in the short term at least .. i have looked at alliance and leicester though never actually got round to buying any ..these together with barclays are obvious targets for those wishing to get into the lucrative british finance industry ... whilst i see HSBC and RBS (now that they have stopped activity like a rich women (no offence intended) where they buying anything that they saw ..a case of bid indigestion .. look good choices for future growth

in the finance side prudential are another one's cited as m & a target..

will monitor alliance ..though always a reluctant buyer on the monday morning due to the spikes early on ..


p.s another one of my holdings vodafone .. have been in news today and am intigued to see how the market will react on all the m & a speculation over teh weekend

LONDON (AFX) - Credit Agricole SA, France's biggest retail bank, has expressed an interest in entering the British market and has begun to run the slide rule over a number of potential targets, The Sunday Telegraph reported.

'The UK is a very good market and it is one of the most important in western Europe. It has good profitability and it may be an interesting market for us,' chief executive Georges Pauget told the paper.

Pauget said the bank could be interested in deals across a range of consumer finance and banking product areas. But he indicated that any deal would have to fit the company's 'banc-assurance' model, which uses a branch network to cross-sell investment and savings products to banking customers.

The paper said analysts believe Alliance & Leicester PLC, the former building society, would be the best fit.

Pauget also reportedly indicated that he would support a merger involving Banca Intesa SpA, the Italian bank in which Credit Agricole holds an 18 pct stake.

Sorry would you send your email address again; it got lost in the Norton etc. What I wanted to say was that Alliance & Leicester has all the makings of an interesting investment. Pays over 4.8% divi, bought a while back at £5.50, 8.90 and 9,90 and still looks good. It is number seven in the banking field but NatWest does more business in the SE than A & L does in the whole UK. Good news; no large bad debts like the big banks and when the property market starts to go; it will get its 8-9%; as well as Internet Banking and making alot of people redundant. So where does one go from here? Who wants it? Will it merge etc.


Hope that is of interest

Thanks for the info on eyeild. Interesting website. I am not a trader but have come out of the gambling side of the market. Long Story. KESA came about from the spinoff of Kingfisher along with Woolworths. The whole sorry story of Kgf is like playing chess with a drunk. KESA is just in the right place at the right time. Maybe an American investment company will take it over; split it up; sell it off and make a packet. Who cares? The whole electrical retail trade i.e. Dixons etc are in a downturn as the supermarkets are taking over and margins are going down the drain. KESA will just be a victim.

Thanks for your email address. There is another one on the boil which I will send you.


Regards

Your views look supported today with a good price rise and volume so far. With a breakout in sight do you feel 285-290 is possible; unless there is a buyer accumulating for a take over?

Thanks for your input.

Thanks for your research. We may have this thread to ourselves as it seems dormant. Somehow, KESA is a forgotten takeover target and wonder if someone is quietly building up a stake? Still like the company as Kingfisher may still have some interest?

any chartists out there ..in my view the pattern on the chart appears to be an inverse head & shoulders in progress. The pattern is bullish and the breaking of the neckline (270) would complete the pattern. this could well rise to around the 285-290 region.. other views welcome ..i'm looking to go long from 268
