Chart is looking bloody awful so I hope the results do bring some good news as this really does need some cheering up !

[cambium] 05/3/2006 16:38

no worrys popout, I wish you well. I have other fish to fry.

[popout] 05/3/2006 09:21

Cambium, you say you are a buyer at £2.65, in that case you won't be buying as IMHO they are more likely to hit £3.65 by year end.

Two years ago I sold my 10K just after rhe March figures and when iwanted back in 31 days later the price had moved up more than 10%-- still woth the re-investment decision--tho connaught might have been better

until new news comes, yes, dont get me wrong MER is a great co. but I think it is a little heady, I am a buyer at £2.65.

Good luck

You think we have peaked now and will slide then?

[cambium] 03/3/2006 15:40

unfortuneately I am to the contrary newby

A few hundred grand invested today which shows someone is confident. If results are anything less than the usual great I feel we could see a further drop and people investors call it a day after such a long period of growth.

I agree we could see a steady climb again now until March 21st results.

If they are up to the usual expectations then I guess we can see a steady climb back to 325 and possibly beyond.

Anyone else share this view?

[popout] 03/3/2006 09:50

Taken a bit of a hammering of late. Ripe for steady climb as we approach results which will continue to steamroll.

[newby to all this] 27/2/2006 15:31

Anyone think the above is timed with the drop?

I sold out at 3.03 but temped already to get back in....

no drama's mate

Happy investing, I am on the sidelines for now. I hope I didn't offend.

[chippy2] 27/2/2006 15:16

He could have waited another 10 years and probably got £20m if he is still alive !! doh !

He still has a few left anyway !

[cambium] 27/2/2006 14:56

nah, he sold out. If I offered you £5 million now or the chance of £6 million in six months which would you take, errr....

[chippy2] 27/2/2006 14:47

He wanted the cash, like I do at £4 !

And institutions put pressure on him.

[cambium] 27/2/2006 14:32

why did Bob sell £5 milllion of them then!

[chippy2] 27/2/2006 14:27

Sheep and auto trades, it will recover ! ( I hope )

[newby to all this] 27/2/2006 14:08

Is this just the sheep effect or is there some other reason.

[chippy2] 27/2/2006 13:54

Great buying chance here ! imo

[kdwilson] 27/2/2006 09:51

i gather that there is some sort of negative news aurrounding the industry? not sure what but to do with lower spend in the areas Mears works in. This will probably continue to drift until this goes away? ive bailed and will get back in when the green light flashes again!

[mdrans1] 21/2/2006 13:43

Low volume and a few people banking some profit ahead of next months results might explain the dip.

Prelims due about 22/03/06

[the skunk] 21/2/2006 11:23

hi new to this, anyone explain the fall this morning

[newby to all this] 21/2/2006 10:38

Date: Tuesday 17 Jan 2006

LONDON (ShareCast) - Council house maintenance specialist Mears' results this year will be at the top end of expectations, while its order book is now worth more than £1bn.

In a statement, the company said it has recently picked up four new contracts with Leeds City Homes, Kensington Housing Trust, London Borough of Greenwich and the London Borough of Kingston upon Thames.

A substantial amount of the turnover for the next 2 to 3 years has already been contracted, Mears added. The directors remain confident in the future prospects for the group, the statement concluded.
