I luv u Coldy

[deanroberthunt] 30/1/2013 15:39

and what do you think to Admiral, Coldy ?

[deanroberthunt] 30/1/2013 15:39

couldn't you have told us all this when it was 1850, rather than when it's now at 1620.

[cold as ice] 30/1/2013 15:24

Hello,

Allow me to introduce myself. I am Cold as Ice. You may refer to me as Coldy.

In the past I successfully predicted and speculated on the demise of Coffee Republic, and the financial flaws in Debt Free Direct, Accuma and Invocas. I have also profited from the rampage at Avocet, thus enlarging my wallet heartily as a result. Last year I profited from the fall of the retail sector which was most warming.

I seldom appear although I very much like to swoop when markets, sectors and companies are overvalued, where they have suspect financials or where sentiment is poor. Any one of those may be in play although the more the better - I am not particularly fussy. Many cannot accept this but the market moves up and down, and so to not make yourself smile and gleam fat rewards from shorting is frankly absurd.

Moving to more urgent matters I have found a shortlist of new victims for 2013 and so I must declare that I have been shorting Aggreko from 1850. With growth not likely to cover lower revenues elsewhere, cash levels low, a price to book of 5, military withdrawals hitting sales, an elevated PE ratio, US GDP going negative, alternative energy emerging and sales growth limited this stock is ripe for a licking.

1200p is a more reasonable price. I am heavily short. I anticipate a few cases of Baron de Rothchilds being funded as a result and look forward to it. Why not join in the fun?

Yours with a heart,

Coldy

I've been caught out too many times with get rich quick shorting schemes. I've discovered a new shorting scheme which will make me rich and quickly.

It wud be class if this went to 1400

[volsung] 30/1/2013 13:52

Shorters are nice people. They give money to charidees. I will give money to help blind guide dogs get holidays in Thailand

This is very bad share> Bad bad bad. I will punish it with my whip

[aspers] 30/1/2013 13:31

Shorts making a meal at thr moment but sadly about to get burnt :-))

[deanroberthunt] 30/1/2013 12:55

Phil

you in at 1600p ?

[deanroberthunt] 30/1/2013 12:51

who let the bears out.....who who who

[deanroberthunt] 30/1/2013 12:27

in absence of anything positive from the company, then it's at the mercy of the bears

[philo124] 30/1/2013 12:25

Well,1600p would be a third off the High. Can't see much point in rushing in.

[deanroberthunt] 30/1/2013 12:23

sorry 4.5 days

[deanroberthunt] 30/1/2013 12:19

well that's 10% wipped off the stock in a week.

[philo124] 30/1/2013 12:15

Just logged in; oh dear.

Now I think its time to Buy. Like they say: Buy the rumours sell the news:
AGGREKO: The emergency energy provider fell due to fears about a fresh profit warning, according to the Daily Mail's market report. The rumours come less than two months since their last one wiped over 20 per cent off the share price.

[deanroberthunt] 30/1/2013 11:19

Directors were buying stock at circa 1757, so I wonder if they will put their hands in their pockets now its 1650??? ....if not, I think that might be a clue to the March update,

[deanroberthunt] 30/1/2013 10:50

Phil,

if they warn again, you'll even get to buy back at your 1400p

Still going to wait for 1650p; i regret selling at 1400p very much.


here it is Phil :oO

[deanroberthunt] 30/1/2013 10:34

i think it's pricing in another profit warning.

[argylerich] 30/1/2013 10:31

I don't understand how they can make a causal link there?

We already know that Aggreko will be doing less business after the last bumper year, so they certainly won't be buying as much.

If less are being bought elsewhere, then surely that is a good long term levelling in capacity which could only serve to help?

FT published this article yesterday: Aggreko , the generator hire group, lost 2.6 per cent to £17.01 after Caterpillar said it expected sales at its Power Systems division to be flat this year.
