Thanks ..... that explains the early morning buys - I thought maybe we were talking dividend strippers.

Tipped in Techinvest at the weekend.

"the combination of new management and an integrated "one company" customer focused approach will be the catalyst that spurs the company to greater heights. Blick offers a service that is virtually unrivalled in the UK in its effective time management solutions."

Still ticking up with almost a days volume in the first half of the day - currently 233/240p - 21 buy trades and one modest sell.

I nearly took on a few of these myself recently, as I quite liked the look of the dividend. They have been on my watch list but as they didn't seem to be doing much, I left alone. Another bad decision! Anyway good luck.

Up another 4% premarket - now showing a 10%+ net profit since the start of the thread but looks as though I am on my own

At the AGM of Blick plc held today, its Chairman, Mr Alan Elliot said the
following:


"In my statement accompanying our 2001 Report and Accounts I referred to the
continuing economic uncertainty in the UK and USA. Although sentiment has
started to improve, trading conditions remain difficult in certain sectors.
However, our order book remains good and provided that business activity in our
market sectors holds up I am confident that our results for the full year will
be satisfactory."


"Nick Temple, the present Deputy Chairman, is assuming the Chairmanship of Blick
plc at the beginning of April. With his experience at IBM (UK) and his in-depth
knowledge of technology, he is well placed to assist Vanda Murray, the new Chief
Executive, who is continuing her review of operations."


Nick Temple comments: "There are a number of exciting new product developments
at Blick which, combined with our clear market focus, will benefit the company
in the medium and long term".

LONDON (AFX) - Blick PLC said it appointed non-executive deputy chairman Nick Temple to replace Alan Elliot as chairman with effect from March 31 2002.

Elliot will be 65 in March and following his retirement as chairman he will, if
re-elected at the company's forthcoming AGM, remain with the Company as a non executive director.

The divi yield is high and virtually secure - I am expecting confirmation of the reduced gearing and better times ahead. No reason for any downturn due to the economic climate. If anything, it should improve.

Not a firecracker but could easily move towards 300p and better if good news is confirmed.

I was in @ 204p on 1st Nov '01. They're currently off their Nov/Dec highs (approx 230 if memory serves). Its been quite a highly-rated stock throughout. This year the company's costs are down and similar or slightly better profit is expected. And the dividend looks as good as a cash-ISA.

[ainsoph] 15/1/2002 21:58

Up ....... that's why I bought a few. 215/220p already.

AGM is due in three weeks - hoping to hear some good news.

Your title is "Blick is on the move".....up or down?

[ainsoph] 14/1/2002 15:49

Been tracking these for a while - got hit on Friday by one sell order and little buying interest.

Bought a few @ sub 210p

Another magic 13 comes tumbling down to earth.

Lack of newsflow and little interest. Low volumes.

Blick is up 15% or thereabouts since last mid Oct which is good (excellent in fact) but the Electronic Equipment sector is up over 30% in same period.
Does anyone have any good ideas why Blick underperformed the sector in this period??

[dan_bach] 30/10/2001 19:08

Results out December 5th - any views?

[mac] 05/8/2001 16:36

After x div too?

[raj bunta] 02/8/2001 12:31

It's suddenly started moving, after several "static" days - anyone know of any news to support this jump ?

There must be some news out there - as the number of trades doesn't quite justify such a reaction on the price - or do you know different .. ?

[raj bunta] 24/7/2001 09:48

I too am watching this one, and waiting for 160p-170p before I get excited.

Good luck and DYOR etc..

For what it's worth I have this one on my watch list ... with target price of £2.84 post results subject to eps actually being a clean 21.4p. Anyone else with a view of target price?
