I have gone short, because at this level they will retrace I think.

From Pat Lay's Small Caps;

However, the company that must bear the burden of being nominated my Top Tip for 2005 is Bob Holt's Mears Group. When we first started writing about this Gloucestershire-based support service group, whose main business is maintaining social housing for local authorities around the country, the shares were changing hands around 60p rising to around £1 and then falling back again. We always recommended buying on any fall.

Sadly those opportunities have gone now as institutional investors finally came to their senses. In the past year the shares have soared from 126p to 207p and, with an order book stretching to 2024 there is no reason why Mears' shares should not grow another 50% in the year ahead.

cod man, prelim results 30 march, AGM 5 May.

RCTurner2: Agree with deehill. Not a company to play with share price. Very much buy and hold.

[rcturner2] 07/1/2005 10:32

if someone wants to sell then the price will come down but maybe the mms are short of stock at the moment

[deehill] 07/1/2005 10:02

you would, probably, be right. they do look a tad heavy but ALL FIGURES at Mears are academic, since the have long been overtaken by events. It aint what you see, its what they do that counts. tttttel ttthhat tto Tttiinker.

I am interested in buying into this company, but the current price looks very inflated if you look at the RSI 40 value.

I would suggest that a short term retraction from the current price level is likely.

whens the results due

Got a stutter, dee?

Maybe I wuz wrong. See they are paying nearly 230P this a.m. in London. It is interesting that the broker for Connaught is pushing the stock and quoting the 'differnce' between Connaughts and Mears evaluation. There IS a considerable difference and its ALL to do with margins AND CONNAUGHT DO NOT COMPARE, neither do they show the capability of catching up.

Spotted 228.5 earlier but it can't last - or can it ?

[deehill] 05/1/2005 09:31

Lets hope that ALL the MGS brigade are showing due appreciation of their good fortune and supporting the Tsunami funds. Lets,also, hope that conscience overcomes the fat cats at the Credit Card companies who are creaming off their commission on EVERY DONATION made by card.

[chester] 05/1/2005 08:30

up again at present. nice.

[popout] 04/1/2005 22:25

I am a long term MGS and though I am not complaining I am baffled as to what has sparked todays continuing surge. Cannot find any news!!!

Remarkable, remarkable and remarkable !

10:52 was excellent news but close of play even more remarkable

[deehill] 04/1/2005 17:46

Gentlemen.Pray silence for a truly magnificent stock. Hope the internet reaches
to Marbella!!!! WHAT A PERFORMANCE.

[blindfaith2] 04/1/2005 10:52

Remarkable, just remarkable !

Strangely, NO. The trouble with this sector is that few actually realize the ENORMOUS potential of a company poised to take advantage of it. The basic idleness of Council executives, the unwillingness to bear the responsibility of staff organization, oh, so many factors make this market VAST. Problem, now, is how do you(that is, Mears) maintain your firm hold over ever increasing staff numbers, fractionalized depots and all the other problems of becoming a BIG company. Seemingly the problem has been addressed by Bob Holt and the other directors in the appointment of a new CEO who, sensibly, spent his first period touring the country and actually MEETING the folk who worked for him. This bodes well. When the figure stands at two and one half billion it MIGHT be time to rest awhile.

[cambium] 02/1/2005 11:25

Is a billion worth of future deals not enough Dee?
