Breaking out...

Tomps2 thank you for sharing. The link didn't work when I copied and pasted it because your helpful text saying the AFX commentary is at 6m19s pasted into the link too. I have re-pasted it here for convenience, but the credit is yours, Sir. Https://www.piworld.co.uk/2021/01/15/piworld-interview-ben-mckeown-dowgate-capital/

Well spotted Carson, just testing!

[carsonblocked] 12/1/2021 22:13

p.s. Konrad you spelt division incorrectly as “devision̶1; in relation to AFX’s alternative banking solutions division.

If you can substantiate why you think the company is poor rather than just a ‘bad feeling’ I am willing to hear ‘the other side of the coin’. Let’s keep it civil, i’m sure other viewers/posters aren’t interested in a spat. @Scooper nice work on the 50%+ gain.

[konradpuss] 12/1/2021 21:59

carsonblocked, I have no short position, I just follow the sector. You seem very defensive of 'your' investment here. I have always found it useful to hear 'the other side of the coin'. I might be wrong as I have said previously about this company.

I've got a subscription to Motley Foolhidden winners and they have had it on their Best Buy now list for a month or so and put the case for why they think it should do good business and make money with the services they provide going forward into 2021. I've generally done quite well with their research. Certainly doing better than a similar one I hold, Equals. But that seems to be on a recovery move currently.

[carsonblocked] 12/1/2021 21:26

Konny, if you don't hold any stock then why would you use your time posting on a share's BB and bash the company? A reasonable assumption is you've got a short position and it's moving against you, and quite badly so in the past few weeks. Can I ask how big your short is?

[konradpuss] 12/1/2021 21:06

scooper72, as I have said previously, the fellow who jumped off the 200 floor building was doing just fine as he passed the 90th floor! I am sure I am wrong about this stock - you are currently right. I just get bad vibes.

[scooper72] 12/1/2021 20:54

My little holding is up 50percent since I bought earlier this year

[konradpuss] 12/1/2021 20:29

'Our alternative banking solutions devision'. I think that is the negative. I am not a holder as one day I think this company will 'blow up'. I might be wrong mind.

[ali47fish] 12/1/2021 18:10

scooper- the spread is ridiculous-what is 50pc up?

[scooper72] 12/1/2021 16:28

Decided to top up with a few hundred quid. Only had a 100 shares and up 50 percent so felt right to average up a bit today.

[ali47fish] 12/1/2021 08:53

i thought it read positively -even with a slightly ahead being used and yet the share price reaction is negative with the spread so wide it's offputting!

[carsonblocked] 12/1/2021 07:14

Trading update released.

[carsonblocked] 08/1/2021 17:24

10:05am - £201,880 @ 1400p - that explains our lovely price move today. Nice end to the week. Beers all round boys & girls. 1600p is the target.

[longshanks] 08/1/2021 11:14

Looking good

[energeticbacker] 04/12/2020 09:43

As a result of the strong performance, full year earnings are now expected to be ahead of expectations – previous expectations were for Eps of 35.18p. The year end dividend is also being re-instated. More on the Investor's Champion website.

@ihatemms hats off to you Sir, for being courteous to a new market participant in @JasonWilez and answering their question.

[carsonblocked] 03/12/2020 07:49

Trading update today following from the one in October. Increased cross selling. Updated to now be AHEAD of expectations and Dividend Reinstated. Plus a Trading Update to follow in January.

[ihatemms] 30/11/2020 20:44

What does an uncrossing trade mean? At the closing of the auction the bids/offers are frozen and an attempt is made to match as many shares to be sold against shares to be bought - the result of this is what is known as the 'Uncrossing Trade' (UT). In this case I believe there’s heavy demand for the shares as the UT price of £12.35 is well above the spread prior to close.

[jasonwilez] 30/11/2020 19:09

@ihatemms please could you explain what an 'uncrossing trade' is and the significance of a large one @ £12.35 - thanks in advance. I'm still learning.

[ihatemms] 30/11/2020 16:53

Massive uncrossing trade @ £12.35!
