anything else interesting in there this month, i haven't subscibed for a while but thinking of starting up again, definately think EDD can only get stronger.

Big tip in SCSW :-)

The one thing SCSW miss is the amount of unemployed being created. My whole reason for holding these is the recent increase in unemployment and the need for re-training. EDD are counter cyclical and as people go back to college to re-train or do NVQ's their sales and profits are goin gto soar - this is why directors were buying heavy in Jan after the trading update imo - those increased uneployment numbers we are seeing while bad news for the country are good news for EDD.

.... still, i'm in for the long term and it should continue to go well ! (imho)

[cockneyrebel] 13/2/2009 12:36

apparently there's a "Buy" tip in today's I.C.....bit strange as when shares are tipped in shares mag or IC- they usually go down ! still, there's still time yet!


Haven't seen the article but if anyone has can they post it on here for us ?

[rcktmn] 10/2/2009 18:57

Still very cheap!... onwards and upwards ! I'm holding on for further gains..

Pre-tax profit forecasts for September 2009 were upgraded by 51 per cent, from £3.7 million to £5.6 million and by 50 per cent from £4 million to £6 million for 2010.

Very cheap.

Looks like that Goldman Sachs holding is on behalf of Octopus who have just raised their holding from 6.6% to 8%+

CR

[cockneyrebel] 09/2/2009 19:31

looking at the previous holding rcktmn, they have no record of a holding so 8% now suggests they have just acquired a holdimg imo.

[rcktmn] 09/2/2009 18:21

Sounds good to me! BTW, 'scuse my ignorance but how do you determine from the release that it's a buy or disposal etc ?.. I always find them confusing to read

[cockneyrebel] 09/2/2009 17:37

Goldman Sachs have bought 8% - that's interesting.

CR

[rcktmn] 09/2/2009 08:32

Yep... it's a good start... it's an encouraging morning with EDD & Tanfield for me..... :)

[stegrego] 09/2/2009 08:22

Bought back in here first thing after putting it off since 41p.
Still good value at 55p though im hoping.

Oh and tipped in RHPS at the weekend in case you are wondering why a flurry of small buys this am.

[cockneyrebel] 05/2/2009 11:43

Huge trades.

SCSW next weekend should have a nice update.

No not normal, would think some large positions are being taken here by the big boys. Interesting to see the news releases soon.

[katsy] 05/2/2009 09:54

Some very large trades going through, is this normal for this one?

[sheik yerbouti] 29/1/2009 09:57

Eventually yes - but the reference was to next month...

[smarm] 29/1/2009 09:20

Sheik - agree with CR. Somehow all these newsletters will manage to tip at the bottom and will all be showing 200% rises, or some such nonsense, over last six months. People fall for it....I know some of them (not me but I went through a phase many moons ago).

Thanks for the post, are friends electric. Great song...........

[cockneyrebel] 28/1/2009 11:37

At the moment Sheil - but they ar ea very fickle lot - they don't buy when the market is weak but they pile in on a firm market. Sentiment is a fickle thing too.

2 x 250K trades at and near the ask - seems this Gareth Newman's stock is being snapped up by directots and large buyers. Not the old pop singer Gary Newman is he?

[sheik yerbouti] 28/1/2009 09:59

SCSW punters don't buy the tips anymore, most of them have probably cancelled their subscription or been wiped out.

[cockneyrebel] 27/1/2009 10:55

Yes Smarm, I added more today while there's some stock around from Gareth Newman's sale - murder buying this one when there isn't any about.

SCSW update on Feb 14, reckon they'll be bigging it up after the trading statement and director buys.
