s34icknote how the hell did you buy 50k today they are being held so tightly...

I wonder if the dividend will be reinstated? share price should run to 20p at least by 24th September that's a good return in just over 4 weeks. IMHO

Breaking out at last !90 million turnover vs m cap Start to re rate along with rest of market

topped up at 7.95 - one buy and then nothing, share price subsequently raised, so must be very few available.

[s34icknote] 17/8/2013 07:08

Managed to buy 50 k at 7.99

This.. like you baffled Rethink is not rated much higher. looking back at results - Dec 11 eps 2.4p Dec 12 eps loss of 0.4p but made up of Interim 2.4 p less final of 2.8p loss - due to taking on too many extra consultants. This is said to have been sorted out, so I would expect those extras to be now earning their keep. July 13 update said strong first qtr and an excellent start to 2nd qtr. Even if they only match Dec 11 eps then P/E is only 3. I am hoping for more than that and see a quick bagger IMHO. Looking to top up before the Interim.

bought what I could - but had to pay 8.25. Suspect that my interest yesterday prompted the market makers to up the share price

[puku] 18/7/2013 14:23

very difficult to buy any reasonable quantity, big spread. tempted but nervous.

[this_is_me] 15/7/2013 08:11

It looks like things are going well at present. Any reasonable level of profit is going to make the share price soar from its current priced to go bust level.

the lunatics are running the asylum!

Now back up to around my buying price. There didn't seem to be a particular reason for the fall, following the encouraging long term tone of the statement in September, or this week's rise.

[paleje] 08/1/2013 15:35

These were marked up first thing this morning with no buys then the small purchase and now nearly 10% up, is a trading statement imminent?

[paleje] 19/9/2012 16:19

Good luck PJ, hope you weren't too deep, I'm still in at the mo hoping its not x3.

Normally a bit wary of co's which try to change the way things are done; I might agree in principle and their intentions may be laudable but in practice not always profitable. Some of the bigger recruiters like STHR are ruthless and don't have too many noble thoughts about genuinely changing their clients' lot for the better but they're less prone to hiccups in difficult markets.

[pj 1] 19/9/2012 08:25

Yes apols Paleje, im out on the basis profit warnings come in x3's

Awful statement that I believe is covering something else

IMO off course

Good Luck!

[paleje] 19/9/2012 08:22

PJ1, I think a few already have:)

Ive read it 3 times now

Still no clearer it does not add up

Reviewing my position here

[paleje] 19/9/2012 07:41

So, notwithstanding the additional costs in H1 which are ok in my view, we learn that 'unexpectedly poor perm placements in Jul/Aug' are going to cause a 'significant' dent in full year results. How come, because the two summer months are not normally great for recruiting, and what do they call unexpectedly poor - 20% drop, 30% drop? It doesn't make sense to me because if, say, those months normally contribute about 15% (high) to FY numbers, a drop of 30% shouldn't 'significantly' impact on the FY assuming that by 'significant' they mean 20% or more. Another read methinks.

[pj 1] 07/9/2012 11:01

Pace sniffing or leak of results?

[pj 1] 23/7/2012 10:34

Contacted the Co today to see if a Trading Update is due. Very prompt 2 replies received explaining CEO is away but no indication either way. Nice to see they responded though so must take PI's seriously.

[paleje] 13/7/2012 15:21

Don't think HY figures are due PJ but a trading update around this time last year.

[pj 1] 12/7/2012 15:55

Are HY figures due tomorrow?

[pj 1] 12/7/2012 15:53

Times today

There were whispers that Michael Page International may be weighing a bid for Rethink, a much smaller recruitment company....''

I wondered where the FD picked up stock.

One of my concerns was RTGs inclusion in the T1ps Small Cap Fund and well documented difficulties with the whole Rivington Street empire.



As you will see from the link, it would appear that this fund were keen buyers at the time & one of my concerns were the possibility that a new fund manager may simply jettison the holding.

The new fu d manager are Webb Capital but given that RTG were never a top 10 holding I'm unsure if they are still holding....or could this have been the stock which the FD picked up?

Would be nice but with the general sector performance would anyone take the Gamble? Sounds like you have heard a Rumour???
