Why invest against the market? Good results, good comment and continual downward mov ment! So disappointing and a lesson learnt

Yep - I sold my buy from yesterday and then just missed another buy at 130 this morning - within minutes it was 139 on the bid (so I put a sell on instead!)

Not big amounts - just a bit of fun while it kicks around here.

Put a sell order in at 137 and got 138.22. £351 easy money for a few buttons pressed. Easy money.

Lol! I get where you're coming from Jeff. It's just that I've always posted my buys both large (and in this case small).

Berenberg (who have a 230p target) analyst comment here:



"Lavendon continues to differentiate itself

Equipment rental company Lavendon (LVD) is differentiating itself through higher margins on specialist equipment.

Berenberg analyst Sam England retained his ‘buy’ recommendation and target price of 230p on the shares, which rose 2.3% to 147.8p yesterday.

‘Lavendon released a positive first quarter trading update last week that highlighted continued strong momentum in the business, particularly in the UK, France and the Middle East,’ he said.

‘Fleet investment in 2015 has driven this acceleration, with total revenues up 13% and rental revenues up by 9% year-on-year due to increased utilisation on the enlarged fleet and mix improvements.

‘We continue to believe that, while sentiment towards equipment rental companies remains mixed, Lavendon is a differentiated player in the space, benefiting from higher margins on specialised equipment, high utilisation rates and a low-cost depot estate.’ "
