Interesting. Institution ownership has now increased to 29% from 26% last time l posted this information.



So the big boys are buying the stock.

[smurfy2001] 30/10/2014 14:50

Yup noticed that, hopefully it will sort it self out.

Or alternatively use google finance,

[rivaldo] 30/10/2014 14:17

Up to $18.54 already today (the ADVFN chart in the header doesn't seem to be working):

[bigdazzler] 29/10/2014 17:24

Thinking we will hit $19 soon enough.

[aimingupward2] 29/10/2014 14:22

Now $18.15 Let's hope it's not 'Waterloo'. Actually, it looks set fair given good quarterly results coming in.

Edit: closed at $18.19, so fine!

[aimingupward2] 28/10/2014 22:28

If the share price repeats the upward move seen between Feb and April, then we can be looking at $19-20 fairly soon. I would be reluctant to sell out even then as, after another pause for a while, this company is a good longer term prospect.

Thank goodness we're far away now, at £3.60, from the miserable £2, give or take a bit, on AIM.

[smurfy2001] 28/10/2014 22:04

Yep looks like we're finally breaking out.

Be interesting to know the institutional holding percentage soon.

Still @ Inst. own 26%

[bigdazzler] 28/10/2014 18:16

Nice to see breaking to new highs always a very positive sign

[jatin724] 28/10/2014 17:38

Eros finally breaking-out - I remember smaller companies share watch ran an article on Eros prior to it delisting from the London market and they said they expected it to trade 40% to 50% higher in the US to match other similar smaller media companies there which would be between $18 and $21 approx.

[rivaldo] 28/10/2014 15:09

Up above $17.30 now and at new highs. Let's see if they hold or indeed act as a base for further gains.

I agree with post 217 that $19-$20 is on with decent figures, and once the message re EROS' digital/online capabilities starts to spread then the upside is large from here.

[aimingupward2] 24/10/2014 14:57

I've stayed with EROS in it's transfer to NYSE and been very pleased with progress there after a poor start. The chart now looks very promising and the business clearly holds a lot of promise.

The sp, currently $17.28 ( equivalent to about 360p on the old AIM stock) looks,on the chart, as though it might reach around $19-20 given good 2nd and 3rd qtr earnings figures coming in.

speedsgh, out of interest, who did you sell them through? My broker doesn't handle nasdaq stocks.

[speedsgh] 24/10/2014 14:01

Sold remaining holding in EROS last night at $17.49. It's been quite a journey since 2010 with many ups + downs along the way. Have ended up holding a lot longer than first anticipated but a decent enough outcome in the end. There is probably plenty of upside remaining but if truth be told I have become a bit of a stale bull + have seen EROS profits slip away on several occasions previously + do not want a repeat. Still feel uneasy with their corporate governance + the way that the US listing was handled so have decided to call it a day.

Good luck to all remaining holders. Hope EROS, and more importantly the share price, continues to go from strength to strength for you.

[jaws6] 17/10/2014 09:07

on bond some paniced out as some PI can not trade till it is out of WI .
now it is ok to trade , some sold thinking they droping and may be hoping for quick bucks got smacked.
I tried to buy at 97 without luck in that scare.

agree with post 208 on corporate governance to watch out there,but enjoy ride for time being.

[speedsgh] 17/10/2014 08:58

tightfist - need to keep an eye on corporate governance with EROS. not their strong point. sure the ORBs will be fine though based on a small allocation.

[tightfist] 17/10/2014 08:52

Rivaldo,

Thanks for the link. Maybe Eros doesn't have much of an image in London - past associations with AIM, etc? My interest on this one is purely safe? income generation, not funding business expansion.

[smurfy2001] 16/10/2014 13:46

Can this become the Netflix of Bollywood movies?

One is valued at a mere $1bn the other $26bn. Both have a similar number of shares on issue.
