Are there any company-specific or industry-wide issues which might explain the low p/e? Has there been a big seller? |
Not sure what other financial update you are expecting to see other than the trading statement - which confirmed inline with previous guidance - until issue of the Final Results at end April. |
Sorry i meant financial update ;-)... gl |
The update has been and gone. |
Anyway the selling has turned to buying. Heard they had a good xmas so update awaits. ;-) |
Big ones can be reported a lot more than an hour late, it depends on size. I think the biggest ones can be up to 3 weeks late! |
Peter, large trades can be reported delayed by an hour. |
After 4.30 today look at the after hours trades on this site by clicking the trades button. |
For shares in LSE, you can only trade when market is open! No way anyone can buy and sell out of these trading times. Except opening and closing auctions. Electronic trades are off market and just match a willing buyer and seller! Thats what you might be referring to?? ????. |
Who Can Participate in After-Market Trading?
Institutional Traders: Large financial institutions, such as mutual funds, hedge funds, and pension funds, often engage in after-market trading. They typically have the resources and technology to analyze market movements and execute trades effectively. |
No they cant, bizzare statement. :-0 |
To clarify big institonal investor companies can buy and sell shares half an hour before opening and half an hour after closing that we can't get. |
This is totally corrupt Look at all the small sells before closing to bring the price down then the big buys after the close only the large investors can access. |
Never mind it's the thought that counts, plus buying the cards from one of our shops I hope |
A friend entrusted his cards to the local boy scouts for Christmas delivery.
None were delivered. Dib dib dib!! |
I doubt this was the proximate reason Prokartace - although all positive sentiment helps. This note came out on Friday morning and the price fell throughout the day. That said I do think that Berenberg are right! |
 The reason for today's rally
Cheap Card Factory offers ‘significant upside’, says Berenberg
Shares in Card Factory (CARD) remain ‘too cheap’ and offer significant upside given the confident outlook from the greeting card and gift retailer, says Berenberg.
Analyst Adam Tomlinson retained his ‘buy’ recommendation and target price of 154p on the stock, which was trading down 1.5% at 94.3p on Friday morning.
Management has delivered ‘exactly as promised’ in the second half after a profit decline in the first half, including ‘continued robust revenue growth, and with cost/efficiency benefits materialising as planned’, the analyst said of the recent update.
‘It reaffirms our confidence that the group can deliver on its strategic, operational, and financial targets as it progresses towards its full-year 2027 ambitions,’ said Tomlinson.
The shares, however, remain ‘too cheap’ on a price/earnings multiple of 6.4 times and a dividend yield of 5.2% and Tomlinson said there is ‘significant upside from here’. |
About 50% of my cards are hand delivered locally. |
Absolutely.
Some people we know sent us an environmentally friendly Christmas card.
Since last Autumn they’ve been clocking up air miles visiting all those environmentally sensitive places that Attenborough goes.
They’re still away in Guatemala.
Wife has told me not to say anything. |
Electronic cards are not just chespskate, they are decidedly impersonal. |
A bit of both I guess in general and don't forget that not all cards are posted anyway. I still maintain that an emailed card comes across as a cheapskate option and doesn't come close to replacing a physical card whether in terms of feeling the love or not :) |
Off to a good start to the week, let's hope that continues this time! We should be back over a pound by now imho. |
