After the 20th?

[nervousnovice] 04/5/2017 17:08

Nice close above the resistance line - lucky I didn't take your advice Bob. Anyone else see a move towards 800 in the near future?

[tjay09] 04/5/2017 14:34

Come on BTG - let's see 710p

[fhmktg] 04/5/2017 14:28

Now.........Hold!

[semper vigilans] 04/5/2017 13:19

Hope so Bob!

The lids coming off , the breakthrough is real for V

[nervousnovice] 04/5/2017 08:33

704 is the resistance line so a close above that is significant. BTG has not managed to consolidate above 700 since 2015. A push through that level may well see a rise up to 800

[cyman] 04/5/2017 00:08

Not sure what the significance of 700 is beyond psychological buy 1100 was always my target

[dp1umb] 03/5/2017 21:54

Time will tell Bob!

[bargainbob] 03/5/2017 17:09

if not , then its under 7 quid , i find that insignificant . IMHO

[dp1umb] 03/5/2017 14:08

If this finishes above 700p at the end of trading it will be very significant .IMHO

[dp1umb] 02/5/2017 22:17

One more push to a 3 year high ! Am I tempting fait?

[bargainbob] 02/5/2017 21:54

Yeah , hope so .

[waterloo01] 02/5/2017 17:44

lol. hopefully not too lofty this time. The rise however is interesting and does suggest to me that someone is sniffing (old rumour I know) but fast uptick for BTG on no news.

[bargainbob] 02/5/2017 17:40

Waterloo welcome back to £7.

Varienthia = facepalm Been here since the 3's always seen value despite the many downs Great company but in pharma everything is slow until its fast in which case it flies

Sorry novice investor , do not want to sound negative on BTG .
A very proud owner of a company share that has brought health benefits to millions of the world population from MRI , hip cups , digital storage breakthroughs, anti venom serums to oncology .
If you are only interested in price growth , BTg can lose 30 per cent on one RNS . So be careful. Less of a risk for investors like Waterloo and myself.

[waterloo01] 01/5/2017 12:59

bob, was also in from sub £1.00 but sold out at over £7.00 when they said V was being done as a 'slow' launch.

Bought back in recently in high £5's as I see some potential but will reassess depending on V sales.

[charlock] 01/5/2017 11:57

What on Earth is 'Varienthia'?

[fhmktg] 01/5/2017 10:30

Nil desperandum!

[bargainbob] 01/5/2017 09:38

Btg lost heavily on exchange rate hedging , they also had to pay a very large fine in the USA , connected to the Beads they bought as part of the Biocompatibles merger.

The growth story of Varienthia is 3 years behind where it should be . Doubt still remains if it can be a blockbuster or not. Good news the share sails through £8 , bad news back to £4 range. The jury still out.



Very little of internal growth creation in Btg compared to the past, growth mostly via bolt ons , that dilute any blockbuster coming through.

A few large earners also coming of patent in 2017.

Why do I hold , BTG is a complex beast and has a few areas of potential blockbusters in their portfolio. Been in since the £1 days.

Like all long term holders we have been have seen lots of disappointment , combined with current directors selling . Then a bad news update floors the price.
We fully expect someone to make a takeover , we have all been in so long we do not want to miss it .Though our faith in Management is stretched.

Certainty would not be a buyer at today's price , unless I knew Varienthia was breaking through to become a blockbuster. Maybe the fund mangers have detail on this area and current growth potential.

You better sell Monday novice investor , good 11 per profit.

[cockneytrader] 29/4/2017 09:30

NN profit for the year will be down due to foreign exchange loss and a 28 m payout on the beads. The PE ratio will therefore be greater than 50.
