Yupawiese2010- sorry, I don’t follow. S.T? Cheers

As the sharp rise was just after 12pm, accompanied by a flurry of trades, I presume it was an update from S.T. - Can anybody confirm.

[investor0109] 26/3/2020 12:22

Large rise in price today- perhaps investors catching wind of CRL supply sanitants etc.

[investor0109] 24/3/2020 10:41

Excellent news regarding the increased production of sanitisers and job creation- update in June will be something to look forward to I expect.

[yupawiese2010] 24/3/2020 09:46

Ramping up production at our Peterborough site.

Duplicate of above

[kreature] 22/3/2020 22:48

Hmmm, have they laid off any staff re corona ?

[kreature] 22/3/2020 22:48

Hopefully not.

Creightons cleans up

Creightons (CRL:36.5p), a small UK manufacturer of beauty and health care products and a constituent of my 2020 Bargain Shares Portfolio has stepped into the breach to fulfill the surge in demand for sanitant following the outbreak of Coranavirus. The Peterborough based company is one of the few high volume suppliers left in the UK and last produced sanitants in significant quantity in 2009-10 in response to the Swine Flu outbreak.

For commercial reasons the company is unable to disclose volumes or customers (both new and existing), but it’s clearly good news and adds weight to my expectations of a 20 per cent increase in pre-tax profit to £3.5m for the 12 months to 31 March 2020, and mitigates earnings risk for the 2020/21 financial year, too. On 7.5 times likely earnings, the shares rate a buy.

This stock is very cheap, perhaps because many people haven’t cottoned on to the fact that Creightons will benefit massively from the Coronavirus demand for cleaning and antibacterial products. This share twice tipped both as an Investors Chronicle ‘Bargain Share if 2020’ and one of the ‘Coronavirus Winners’. Full article to follow:

See the references below to sanitisers and the IC/Simon Thompson "Creightons Clean Up" article on 9th March.

I know they sell soap etc but how about global logistics here, what with corona ?

[davidosh] 09/3/2020 22:53

Can we keep postings to talking about Creightons......Play the ball not the man !

[investor0109] 09/3/2020 13:52

I see, thanks for your information, JakNife. Well, it makes perfect sense, seeing that there was never a logical reason for this share to have fallen in value in any case.

[investor0109] 09/3/2020 13:26

...odd that CRL should gain today- certainly one of very few. Perhaps the morons have started stockpiling general toiletries whilst out panic buying toilet paper.

[sweep stock] 09/3/2020 13:07

I got a blue one!

Creightons seem to have quite a few hand sanitizer products:

[davidosh] 04/3/2020 18:15

If they have not already then they will almost certainly be formulating a product as all their store customers will be requesting it.

[3800] 04/3/2020 12:28

does anyone know if Creightons produce any hand sanitizer products? they seem to have plenty of stuff described as hand wash

[mfhmfh] 28/2/2020 12:38

US futures looking stronger

[mfhmfh] 28/2/2020 10:15

I agree - shares being sold indiscriminately in every sector. most have nothing to do with China.

[investor0109] 28/2/2020 09:53

This is the single most ludicrous sell-off I ever have seen. Is CRL really worth that much less this week than it was last?

No rhyme or reason. No pause for thought or rational thinking...just sell everything, apparently.

[mfhmfh] 24/2/2020 11:08

I agree...great buying/top-up opportunity.
