What would be the outcome if DLAR lost the Indian contract which, I believe, is due to be renewed soon?

If it's good enough for Black Rock et al, then it's good for me, so i have nabbed a few more, divies too good to miss chaps.


Firstly, the "divies too good to miss chaps", in all probability, ain't going to be so good in the near future term.

As to Black Rock et al, do they know all the information?

good rise today

Its impossible to accurately call market extremes, all one can do is to take a long-term view. Short-term markets girations are meaningless to me, unless I happen to be looking for an entry point. According to todays' FT, the yield is 6.6 per cent at 645p.

Two 'largish' purchases of 200,000 and 350,000 blocks of shares still haven't slowed the steady decline...

I'm not convinced yet we have seen the bottom on this share yet!

[eric gardener] 08/10/2010 13:38

well all the best wth it - in the long term theres a great chance or a good investment there but as well all know it's all full of ups and downs.

My small caps have performed prety averagely over the last 6 months but my large caps have more than offset this with decent gains.

Eric

This is my biggest holding and its bought at bargain prices. I figure that when they get their act together, the share price should react accordingly.

[eric gardener] 08/10/2010 12:01

no luckily I didn't lol.

[redips2] 08/10/2010 11:59

Eric---so you are the reason for all this trouble----did you buy heavily into the banking sector 2 years ago? :P

[eric gardener] 08/10/2010 11:19

pixi you're loaded. my shareholding is humbled in the presence of yours.


redlip, average down - you want me to make this go down further? everytime I average down on anything the price drops instantaneously.

consequently whenever I sell anything the price skyrockets shortly after.

[pixi] 08/10/2010 09:34

I bought 10,000 at 646.5 yesterday.

[redips2] 08/10/2010 08:49

Average down Eric, and "un-bane" them!

[eric gardener] 07/10/2010 20:54

This is rapidly turning into the bane of my portfolio - I find it quite amusing really.

[pixi] 07/10/2010 09:54

I see Panmure Gordon put out a sell recommendation on 8 August with a new pricce target of 605.

[pixi] 07/10/2010 00:03

It's all about sentiment, it could be 600 or 580. Who knows?

The interim results are on 23 November.

[eric gardener] 06/10/2010 22:28

I don't think it's kicking and screaming as it goes to the knackers yard - I think it seems to be quite willing to go there all of it's own accord!

It's a classic shakeout in my mind - I'm sure on the other side of this there's a few large buyers and they are particular about what is being paid i.e not too much.

There's 2 options as I see it.

1) buy and hold, collect divi and simply come back in 2 years time.

2) speculate, get nervous sell at a loss only to see the co didn't go bust and everything ended up allright.

Where the bottom is I don't know.

[tweeeek] 06/10/2010 20:37

There may have been a few stops taken out as this is dragged kicking and screaming to the knackers yard, it has a lot further to fall yet.

[eric gardener] 06/10/2010 11:10

I wonder if there was a few stops around 650 being taken out earlier?

[pixi] 06/10/2010 10:26

A bit of a gamble? I've just bought 2000 at 652p for the long-term.

[tweeeek] 04/10/2010 11:44

Soon this will fall and stay below 650 there isn't much stopping it dropping to 600.

[eric gardener] 02/10/2010 21:05

yes I prefer to start the day nice and early.

Jon what happened to the chart? or did I imagine it, I was hoping for some interesting info there.

[redips2] 02/10/2010 18:41

6.37am!---you are an early bird Eric. Bottom fishing is allowed, and if they drop to 6.00p or v close i will add for sure, but for now i will watch and wait.

[eric gardener] 02/10/2010 06:37

a good chart but what does it mean jon?
