Great - I'm about 7 grand up on my short spread bet here.
Phew - I'd actually been getting quite worried lately.
Congrats to Matt Earle and his detailed bear arguments.

Commiserations to holders here - posters on this board seem a decent bunch. Good luck to you elsewhere - and this one too now I've closed out.

Cor -I see it's bounced back a bit while I was writing that - maybe other shorts closing too.

Industrial and Commercial LED Lighting Market to Grow at a 30.8% CAGR

[beeezzz] 16/10/2015 13:03

Moving up nicely.....report coming.

[beeezzz] 08/10/2015 17:20

Yes...MF being economical with the truth again, the problem is they do very little research before posting their comments.

The share price maybe being kept artificially high due to buyers of the whole company and IP portfolio, who knows these days.

Its interesting that the share price is holding up in very volatile stock markets lately.

I'm not sure what point he was trying to make about margins, but when he enthused about the lighting revenue growth they achieved he should have noted that nearly a third of that was due to fortuitous currency movements.

I agree with him about it being rather expensive though. Even the highest 12 month broker price target (660p) is just lower than the share price as I write.
And a quick google will show research demonstrating that 3 out of 4 times such targets turn out to be too optimistic at the end of their time span.

scan...I don't put much credence in what MF say these days...its more about plugging their own great picks rather than getting the facts straight.

Dia are reasonably high margin products due the fact they meet certain specifications that others do not.

[scantrader] 02/10/2015 12:35

A per of more than 35 is bad enough anyway but it must assume earnings for H2 of about 15 p, compared to 5.4p in H1.

Somewhat fanciful methinks.

Review is due in October - if that helps.

Bought into this (1,000 shares) at 470. Have been watching for years thinking I had missed the boat, but looking good so far ;0)

Best wishes - Mike

see #2889.

Maybe the "strategic review" is about to bear fruit!

[tompion] 28/8/2015 17:47

Yes, interesting rise - and Dia has been surprisingly strong while market was tumbling.

[meijiman] 28/8/2015 16:59

very perky towards the close today?!

[scantrader] 08/8/2015 00:24

There's some strong bear analysis around against the current share price for DIA.

Eg ...

[jeffian] 06/8/2015 15:41

Maybe that's why DIA's research & development costs run so persistently high year after year but, if that's the case, they need to be more honest with themselves and expense the costs rather than capitalising them. It's one of the reasons behind the reported 'profits' actually resulting in cash losses.

Technology hey!!!! never stands still, these should make good vehicle head lights, when it will be commercial is another story.

[ali47fish] 31/7/2015 14:03

[itchycrack] 31/7/2015 10:10

[mike740] 30/7/2015 17:17

Really chuffed with my Buy this lunchtime.

I had seen recent Director Buy.

[beeezzz] 30/7/2015 17:01

193k buy somebody is confident, or is that a short closing.

[beeezzz] 30/7/2015 15:31

Itchy...How's that short looking, singed or what!!!!

[beeezzz] 30/7/2015 15:04
