Nortic I'll re buy once that blue day arrives. Hoping today, technicals showing a spike up any day now!iPhone 8, great August retail sales shown by yesterday BRC sales and Xmas sales could see this past 200pImo, dyor, ignore the morons on here!

What i am saying is collective target prices from the Analyst community for DC stock remain way north of here.

They currently look like idiots ..

Well they will seek not to look like idiots. Whether their recommendations are buy sell or hold they will seek to be more aligned with the current price action and we will see those price targets drop.

The guy at Cannaccord has had a huge re-think on the shareprice target hasn't he ?

180p from 395p - that is one hell of a rethink

More downgrades here are a certainty

And now they come .. Analysts hate to look stupid

There will be s slew of these ..

As things stand in the face of the recent price action the analyst community is looking pretty stupid right now

Ravin how have you "cashed in some profit"? - ( Apart from the fact that "cashed in some profit" is not even English) - How you have managed to do this is beyond me seeing as the share price has gone down relentlessly for the last week and you claim to have bought on the evening of 25/08.

You have "cashed in some profit" ??!!- Gimme a break

If you go over Ravin's other 'investments' and collectively graph them on a non weighted basis in sharescope you get a graph that is going almost straight down.

It is a warning to the unitiated this kind of posting. No facts. No research. No financials. No reference to the balance sheet. Just guff.

Ravin :- "hence, the reason why this is overdone along with the technicals."

What does that actually mean?

This may seem personally hurtful but people need to be warned.

Anyway he is not reading this as I am "filtered" so I assume he will not be bothered. (not peeking are you Ravin)

For the newbies on here consider this. .

Q:How many times can a shareprice go down by 20% ? A: potentially an infinite amount
Q:How many times can a shareprice go down by 30% ? A: potentially an infinite amount
Q:How many times can a shareprice go down by 50% ? A: potentially an infinite amount

etc etc

Q.If a shareprice goes down by 50% how much do you need it to up by to get your money back ? A:100%
Q:If a sharerprice goes down by 80% how much do you need it to up by to get your money back ? A: 400%

Q: Could DC. drop another 80% from here ? A: Of course it could... and more!

Take a look at Carillion which has gone from 200p to 40p in a 6 weeks and still looks weak

statements like ""hence, the reason why this is overdone along with the technicals." are just the biggest load of ..

words fail me

If you are a newbie on here examine cashflows , cash, assets, and start thinking about look through earnings.

All of these are in short supply with DC.

Good luck Nortic am probably wrong wouldn't be the first time ;)

[meinhere] 05/9/2017 20:46

Stuart Rose sounds great really.

[tim 3] 05/9/2017 20:16

Just looking at the price action on these.

Despite a massive drop which many say was overdone it continues to drift either sideways or down.Moves up are sold into and even when the overall market is up these are often either unmoved or down.

I believe the move down is overdone but so far the market is telling me otherwise.

[nortic 007] 05/9/2017 20:11

Just a thought should we buy Apple if South Korea get it?

[nortic 007] 05/9/2017 20:08

I was 15k up 2 weeks ago now down 15k . I can't influence the price.Its going to take time but heads will roll and the right noises will be made. The least post on here the better because let's be honest what we say won't influence the price. Mr Buffett never sells ( except TSCO) be patient and all will come good.Bring in Stuart Rose and then the fireworks will starts.Pleasant dreams.

[right honorable lord lucan] 05/9/2017 18:32

Ravin. Youre sounding rediculously desperate. Give it a rest fella there's a lot of newbies on these threads reading your ramping rubbish. Sell ffs and move on.

[nortic 007] 05/9/2017 18:22

Maybe DC should sell tin hats. Don't panic !!!!!

[ny boy] 05/9/2017 17:38

Not time to buy, global markets are starting to implode, it's going to be very rocky out there for the next six months at least.

[ravin146] 05/9/2017 17:30

^ hence, the reason why this is overdone along with the technicals.

Can someone wake me up when DC. have an up day. Please don't let me sleep through Christmas Day so give me a nudge just in case they haven't gone up :)

[ravin146] 05/9/2017 15:19

Tim3 and Meinhere - waste of time reading both your post and I don't have the timefiltered

[tim 3] 05/9/2017 14:29

I have no position before or after the warning.

I have followed these for many years and held a lot of shares over that time always long I don't short shares.

I think even though the move is probably overdone the issues particularly with mobiles are not going away any time soon.

However in past experience when things are tough they are quite good at reacting,cutting costs and focusing on improving margins.

Peak season will be more important than ever this year.

[ravin146] 05/9/2017 14:17

Meinhere, I'll give you the benefit of doubt.It just an odd question to ask what investors are making, amount size. Very odd.Gl on whatever your agenda is.
