76p today, gulp

Closed below that psychological 100 level.. after five days of trying not to.

Halved in 6 months

update largely as i expected - and the share price implies a lot worse than rev down 20% v last year - and the co continues to invest for the longer term. how long we have to wait for the capital markets side of the business to recover is hard to say but to my mind it remains a quality business for the longer term.

[its the oxman] 14/5/2008 09:05

looking pretty rough, sub 100p now

[h4rsh2] 12/5/2008 13:53

volume picking up...lets hope we see better times ahead.

With capital market fundraisings and corporate finance advisory making up roughly 60% of last reported net profit, it's not surprising that the share price is so weak.

I still envisage a share price bottoming at or below NAV prior to the next major upswing. see also post 92

OXMAN when is the next update?

[its the oxman] 12/5/2008 10:29

yep xxxxxxx - and maybe hard to envisage but longer term when the good times eventually return this business could easily get back nearer to 300p

[h4rsh2] 12/5/2008 10:26

OXMAN,you r right this stock has halved yet making good profits I remain
positive and hopefull that we should see £1.50-£1.60 in the near future.
fingers xxxxxxx

next trading update is certain to be difficult with talk of challenging market conditions continuing etc but that will be no surprise - hopefully its all in the price but difficult to know for sure - certainly great buying oportunity for med - long term tho - i hope at these levels.

i am very aware of the cash in bank, terry smith's determination / ability and their strong mkt presence BUT this price action is concerning me a tad. many smaller but similar businesses currently trading at or much nearer to cash levels in these difficut mkts. i think mkt smells a dodgy trading update coming here perhaps...i can't buy / hold on takeover hopes alone and have decided to take a small loss on an s/b. of course, could be very wrong.

[h4rsh2] 09/5/2008 12:52

79M profit 688M Assets Mcap 290M (ONLY?????)This should really be over
£2.00....Me thinks...

[h4rsh2] 09/5/2008 11:51

anyone piling into this???? over and out..

[its the oxman] 03/4/2008 10:20

maybe not pile in - but sometimes things are just so cheap its worth accumulating something for the longer term

[m4m] 26/3/2008 10:41

Well the share price is telling us something when most other financials are rallying.

An investor is not gonna pile in until the trend changes I would have thought.

Still I suppose the speculators can always start some more takeover rumours eh ;)

[jimmy c] 26/3/2008 10:21

Way too cheap this under 180p, Smithy will let this be taken over if the price is right. Pile in.

'Nobody wants a financial at the moment'

At these prices I do, so have climbed on board.

[rhodesthomson] 14/3/2008 10:18

Decent set of figs. Nobody wants a financial at the moment tho. 5p divi coming up. Didn't take much selling to kill it at 140 early on.

[rhodesthomson] 11/3/2008 12:44

10% again today, yipee! figs due on Friday.

[its the oxman] 02/3/2008 00:02

yeh - cheap as chips if anyone cares anymore

[rhodesthomson] 27/2/2008 14:06

time to go long in this again.

[m4m] 27/2/2008 13:32

MBO only rumours as has been the case for along time (since Dec 06) or have I missed something?

Still not gone above 50MA so investors staying away?

Tho I spose it's not until it goes thru the 200 that long term ones will be back in droves.

I currently have no position in this one.
