Bango Share Discussion Threads

[simplesimon1] 02/11/2018 14:20

A few early morning, end of the week profit takers selling off. Then Buy, Buy, Buy. Soon there will be no more shares to buy and the market will adjust accordingly. Time to buy!

Lentjes I don't know how old you are but I am 80 years old and have traded for sixty years this is how I have been able to build up large amounts in the stockmarket ,it hasn't always been like this there have been many ups and downs over the years,unfortunately as you know my wife passed away a year ago I inherited her entire portfolio which doubled my holdings,it's pointless me selling anything as I have no living relatives and have everything I need and want,my portfolio now is for pure interest only ,it DOSENT matter what happens to it,for me the long fight is over! Good luck alan

I know you were directing your post at our new friend and sorry for butting in but thanks for the heads up on Griffin

Maybe when the BGO share price hits £20 if Griffin are still trading I may take a look & sell a few hundred BGO and have a punt

[alangrifbang] 31/10/2018 19:42

Mrnumpty ,I also hold the same amount in griffin mining 200000,this has suffered the same as BANGO but I think for a mining company that is debt free,this is also due for a rerating ,read up on it and I'm sure you will agree,good luck,

Alangrifbang : thanks again for another pleasant post . I bought another 5000 shares later today . Although I am very positive regarding the prospects for Bango , especially at this price , this provides me with sufficient exposure : 10,000 shares is enough for me . Though I have had plenty of share dealing disasters , not selling soon enough on some , whilst selling too soon on others , the mantra of the Great Sage should always be in our minds : to sell at the time of greatest euphoria , and to buy at the time of greatest depression ( my paraphrase of the words of Warren Buffet ) . As I wrote earlier , a quick look at the Company's website shows that something over 60% of the shares are held by institutions or directors ( at least the last time the information was updated , which I think was last July ) . Surely this shows great confidence in Bango's prospects , but also the lack of free float in a company worth only £ 85 m or so has surely been a factor in the share price volatility . Good luck all .

Well done mmumpty your 5000 share purchase ha done the trick,your post really cheered me up this morning ,we haven't had much to laugh about lately good luck to you,

[lentjes] 31/10/2018 10:49

Cheeky using my post, I feel like sending the Bango investor relations a finders fee

[shellback] 31/10/2018 10:30

I have £4000 of this in Isa's for my children aged 2 years and 4 weeks hope it will help with Uni fees one day.

Allangrifbang . Thanks for your pleasant and honest reply of a couple of days ago to my post . We have surely all been in your position of seeing losses on our investments . However , from my perspective , looking in as someone with no holding in Bango , your despondency almost served to encourage me that the share price has bottomed ( ! ) . The share price has dropped considerably for some time , suggesting that most of the weak holders have sold . As we all know , but find so difficult , we have to go against our instincts when investing ( i.e. we must be very wary when everyone else is euphoric ) . I therefore have just bought in for the first time ( the 5000 shares just after 8.00 am was me ) , not only because of your comments , but also because of the recent update by Simon Thomson of the Investors' Chronicle ( though he certainly isn't always infallible ) , and because I get the feeling that , after nearly three weeks of worldwide stock market misery , markets are starting to recover . Another reason for me to invest is the large holdings , both by directors and some highly-respected funds specialising in small-caps , though this is also probably also a reason for Bango's share price volatility ( i.e. these large , fixed holdings , comprising more than half the value of this £ 80 million company mean that there is only a fairly small availability of stock ) . Indeed , such a low market cap and such a huge addressable market helped to finalise my decision to buy . So , Alangrifbang , not an ounce of Schadenfreude on my part , but your unhappiness indicates to me that the weak holders are now gone , which should provide a base for recovery . Although no-one should take my comments as any sort advice , I suspect that the price is about to recover ( !!!! ) . Rejoice - Mr Numpty is on board - what can possibly go wrong ?!?

[alangrifbang] 30/10/2018 21:29

You've nailed it ,we just don't know,

[lentjes] 30/10/2018 21:08

Not from my view but if that's what you think and you're not satisfied with the performance of the BoD you always have the option to sell up and move on

[alangrifbang] 30/10/2018 20:53

Lentjes trouble is there updates are always disappointing,always a bucket load of excitement that falls flat on the day,

[lentjes] 30/10/2018 20:31

alan

I'm sure you can stay alive until Jan next year

[alangrifbang] 30/10/2018 20:01

As usual good posts I appreciate all your digging lentjes,I wish you could whisper this to the BOD as they don't seem to know,at my age I may not be alive when it comes right,ha ha ,good luck

[lentjes] 30/10/2018 18:53

Our market continues to grow

You may find the statement @ 1 minute 27 sec into the interview with Nick Lane rather interesting

Remember in his recent interview with Andrew Scott Raymondo stated Amazon physical goods in Japan was now significant and that it will be interesting to see how this will impact the normal annualised H1 - H2 40(£220m )-60 (£????) split on EUS revenue especially with Amazon prime day, black Friday and the expected seasonal increase in spend with Amazon Japan all falling in H2.

Already looking forward to the Jan update

[alangrifbang] 28/10/2018 20:23

Good post,until we get something concrete from the board I don't blame you staying on the outside,I hold 200000, shares from pence up to £2 60 ,which was a huge mistake I got really carried away with all the upbeat reports ,I think it was me who put the kiss of death on it,fortunately I am 80 years old and don't need any money so it's all only on paper,good luck

With reference to Investors' Chronicle this week . Indeed , Simon Thomson's article isn't in the printed version . However , on page 52 of the printed edition there is a full-page article which could easily be inferred as including companies such as Bango ( " Revenue is vanity , profit sanity , but is cash king ? " ) . The article concludes by stating that " The dual quest for scale and enhanced capability has precipitated over 140 M & A transactions in the broader finch sector during the first half of 2018 , at a total value of nearly $ 40 bn - an increase of 25 per cent on the same periods in 2017 - and a reflection of how consumers and businesses have embraced digital payments and financial data services . Logic would dictate , therefore , that the handful of UK entities in this space - the likes of SafeCharge ( SCH ) , Eckoh ( ECK ) and Fairfx ( FFX ) - must be in play . A thought worth considering in light of last week's M & A cover feature " . No , the article does not mention Bango , but surely it falls within the type of companies described ? I don't own any Bango , yet , but am considering doing so . Good luck all .

It would have helped if S T s article was printed in this weeks IC the more people read it ,it might encourage people to invest in it,let's hope there is some announcement this week to stop the price falling,it certainly DOSENT go up on mights or maybes,
