Well, I've been living my life. I thought the luxury of investing was that you don't have to engage daily, unlike running a business.
Anyway, gp, has been consolidated. Should add a few million to profits for next year. Other websites are/have been upgraded. A few more stores open. Trading on a pe of 5-something for what I expect next year. There's nothing to do but buy more, pick up your dividends and wait for the weighing-machine to do it's thing. |
So we have another greeting card event this week - Valentine's Day, which apparently is being expanded by the non-conventionally gender-aligned community who are increasingly sending "Palentine" cards. Well, that's what I think I heard on the radio over the weekend! |
After a ramptastic January what’s happened to all the posts?! |
Did someone say something? |
I'm considering topping up at some stage. I'm waiting on the sidelines! |
Nobody cares if you topped up or not |
Preliminary Results are on 7th May. |
Too true, a bit of consolidation won't do any harm while we await news, potentially on the US business. |
The share price gets more ridiculous by the day, not even moving on a good up day for the market. |
A cut in rates will be swag for CARD.Bring on the breakout |
Topped up here this morning. |
CF staying surprisingly steady when so many shares are dropping like stones. |
Haha! How bloody dare you ;)Have a great weekend all! |
Not much of a pullback, down just 0.2%!
It's almost as if the market couldn't care less ;-) |
I see Moonpig is up another 7.5p (3.4%]. Galling, in view of the fact it has more or less an equal number of shares in issue, it makes less profit per share, (10p v 14p), it pays a tiny dividend, (1p v 4.5p), it is valued at nearly 2.5 times CF. Fundamentally, Moonpig is a worse business performer than CARD, yet more highly valued by the market for some obscure reason. |
Positive US news could result in a golden cross, the chart is at least heading that way! |
I'll take it. DEAL ! :) |
I confidently predict you will make 0.02p on that purchase**All estimates +-0.02 |
Lol. I'm buying one share now in lieu of your purchase:) |
Heading to my local CARD, will potentially be spending about 4 quid AND saying yes to a carrier bag.Just wanted to let you all know as the market catches on later and you see the inevitable spike ;) |
Back to CF. Is there anything to look forward to in way of announcements for CF before May. This is struggling to stay in the 90s the way I see it. Bloody nightmare of a share! |
Gl, yes, I'm aware of this. Perhaps you've misunderstood my comments? They will have retail stores that aren't in the high-street, if that's where the confusion has come from |
Exactly, I can't see anyone taking over the stores and carrying on as if they were WHS as that format has been unsuccessful, so I agree most likely a positive for Card who will pick up more customers. |
If they can sell all the high street shops to someone who wants to change their use that is great for CARD. The high street won't be further hollowed out, and there is also less competition for CARD in cards, gifts, party items. A real win situation for CARD. |
