Some very large sells going through today - is the penny finally dropping

[cockneyrebel] 15/6/2007 14:00

Least i can apologise for my mistake !

I put a valid argument on Apc and it's down a lot since in
touched 45p, i know you sold near the top cr :-))

[cockneyrebel] 15/6/2007 13:55

I take it if someone can put a valid argument quotes, as I'm putting here, with reasoning.

Your deramp on BMC I took too, even tho you have been grossly wrong and didn't realise BMC had no debt.

CR :

Fully understand why you along with others are short here !

Point i'm making is you moan when shorters or derampers turn up
on other stocks you hold yet you are doing exactly that on this
stock !

So you have to take it to dish it out.

ID.Sorry i don't understand what you mean.You said (I've been short since 650 and finally doubled up on GS warning. Been a killer on margin & interest though.)

And now you are saying (no but you are paid interest if you maintain your short position overnight. It works out the same.)

What do you mean the.

[idioterna] 15/6/2007 12:28

sllab - no but you are paid interest if you maintain your short position overnight. It works out the same.

Fidelity.. 10%

Merrill .. 13% (unlucky for some)


This isn't these funds holding the shares, they hold them for other investors.

At the end of the day there's a huge alarm call about to hit investors in CWP imo
- floated nearly 2 years ago @ £2ish and in all that time they have had £3m in sales - still expensive at the float price imo

Cash burn at the next results is going to look dreadful imo.

Sounds like pie in the sky dreams them forcasts.

[sllab101] 15/6/2007 11:37

You don't pay when short.

Dope,

Let's not get carried away. For 2008, CWP are forecast to generate revenue of £463m and eps of 22.3p. However, this suggests a forward PE of 39 which looks a very full value. Furthermore, it appears that forecasts are being downgraded (according to Digital Look, one month ago the 2008 forecast eps was 28p on revenue of £635m).

As such, I've taken out a small short position today.

[dope007] 15/6/2007 11:18

On their sales these are worth sub 10p and that is what is so frightening about the unbelievable mkt cap

[cockneyrebel] 15/6/2007 10:22

Chart fallen though support - it's a big way down to G.Sachs target of 595p !

mick.I don't get it.But I joined the badwagon aswell.
I do have a scum-ball of a brother in law who is a MP and there main directive is green.So if you can't beat them join them.

[mickconn11] 14/6/2007 22:16

The last few weeks RNS's make good reading. Loads of big houses got big stakes:

Fidelity.. 10%

Merrill .. 13% (unlucky for some)

Blackrock..14% (are these the genius alchemists who the Chinese have just bought into and at the same time providing them with the liquidity to play the markets)

Directors selling and all those additional listings.

Reminds me of the good old days of Baltimore and Infobank.

Tried to sell a few today and found it difficult despite the MMs being on the bid for 5K each but got some away eventually.

With the big shareholders on the register I may well have sold into a bear trap but happy enough to go along for the ride and collect the short interest.

Will sell a few more on the way down if it goes that way and sell a few more if it goes up to a tenner. And a few more at 1100 and then I'll scratch my head and a few more things if it goes to 1200.

This whole green thing is getting daft and everyone's wetting their trousers over 'clean energy'. Green bags on Tuesday ,black bags on Thursday and then drive to work in a flippin' JCB.

Anyone remember when Tony Blair talked about appointing an Internet czar back in 1999. ?

And how much does it cost to build a silly windmill anyway.

I'm new to this stock so please feel free to tell me that I just don't get it.

Evening all.

[cockneyrebel] 14/6/2007 14:30

How did this hideous company ever get a market cap of £1b nearly - hideous!

Sales of £3.5m lololololololol!

When it warns proper they are going to halve overnight imo.

[cockneyrebel] 14/6/2007 13:27

Chart falling over - your last chance to avoid the burns unit imo.

Typical Goldmans: "We've sold so you better get out".. To think there are quite a few pension funds who have this a weighty holding in their "green-enery" funds.. very dodgy. By the way I am short and added this morning.

[cockneyrebel] 13/6/2007 11:08

they keep talking about orders but say they will be 'lumpy' lol.

The expected number of turbines produced and sold have been increasingly scaled back too - but the loonies have continued to buy this speculative dross.

Has to be a massive wake up call at some point, tho that won't bother director Baciocco who's been selling or that little get Moynihan, former Tory and boat race cox (cox - how apt) who dumped his load in April @ 650p - he obviously thought they were well valued even then imo!

From Bloomberg this morning:-

Clipper Windpower Plc (CWP LN) fell 21 pence, or 2.3 percent, to 882.5. Goldman, Sachs & Co. cut its recommendation on the U.K. maker of wind turbines to "sell" from "neutral".

"We are reducing our 2007-08 estimates for Clipper to reflect the latest company guidance for definite orders and our lower-than-previous expectations for conversion of contingent orders to firm contracts," the bank wrote in a research note.

[the_doctor] 13/6/2007 10:46

orders of what?
