Spot on - unfortunately I suspect that the company probably has had to waste time dealing with an unnecessary and frivolous email. The response probably had to be approved at quite a high level as well. I'm sure most long term shareholders would prefer that the senior people at FEVR were getting on with growing sales - something they are rather good at.

I think it's time to buy and lock-in shares of this wonderful company.
A mini Coca Cola in the making.
Just accumulate and be patient. The reward will be huge even if taken over...

Elsa - great post! Think the issue is the emailer wasn't in at £1.30 odd! They were in over £21

Sogo, I think you are right about the Breakaway Gap being a likely target for shorts.

I think it will only partially fill, if at all, because it represents a likely support zone.

On my chart the top of the gap is approx 1863.

[Christh] Anyway, 2121 to flush out any further weak holders would be grand surely?

[sogoesit] 19/9/2017 09:03

September is sell-off month, usually... but also noone has mentioned strength of GBP vs USD.... 5% so far.
"Gap fillers" could be interested in 1800 i would think.

[martywidget] 19/9/2017 09:03

Perhaps someones seen the latest vidoes on youtube of some of the latest prospective employees and thought.

Blimey, if that's what they're attracting to recruit with little life experience Fever-Tree, I'm out of here!

[christh] 19/9/2017 08:50

Marty,
why the fall from £25 to the present level?

Is Evil shorting it or anyone else shorting it?

Very angry,upset for a prosperous growing company to drop from £25 to £22.

Standard Life UK Smaller Cos have increased their stake along with Old Mutual.

Terry top up time. Don't let the market makers win!

[juzzer100] 19/9/2017 08:36

Terry Topper - thanks for your input on the board. Please remember though that everyone has different levels of investment knowledge and experience. The key thing is most have money to bring to the markets too which helps people like your good self make money! We use these free boards to ask/ enquire and discuss what is happening in a share and value CONSTRUCTIVE input from people as obviously knowledgeable as yourself. Let's keep it that way!

[christh] 19/9/2017 08:25

Fallen from £25, a big fall.
I wonder if its a big institution buying the shares at this price in tranches so
as not to show its intentions.

totally unrearonable drop.
Oversold, undervalue for a huge growth stock.

Waiting for the bounce to £25 and beyond.

TerryTry getting up on the other side of the bed tomorrow.DD

[villarich] 19/9/2017 08:05

Ooh tez getting narky. Thanks for your fact based post. Sorry that debating makes you tired and grumpy

[terry topper] 18/9/2017 23:43

This is getting tiresome - hopefully the fact based narrative below will help ........although I'm not confident.

WINS profits doubled in the 6 months to January 2017 - Oh No!!!!!!! - they must be raping the poor private investors!
Well, their profits were just £14.4m and they are a market maker in more European stocks than any other registered market maker as well as some US stocks.
They make a market in 'almost all London Stock Exchange listed securities from ETF's to AIM'.
There are around 2,600 listed securities on the LSE so lets assume 'almost all' means 2,500.
That means that, on average, WINS made around £44 per trading day on each security for which it makes a market.
What this, admittedly crude, calculation demonstrates clearly is that some of the comments above display a very high level of ignorance.

[discodave4] 18/9/2017 17:32

There is, or should be, very little input from MM's on SETS, however, as bamboo has said, it's just tongue in cheek - have to blame / thank someone!.DD

[christh] 18/9/2017 15:10

The market makers are there to make money for themselves not for the benefit of the
buyer or the seller.
They drive the market up or down and individual stocks where they anticipate they
could make considerable profits.
Whether they break up rules and laws of the stock exchange is down to the FCA to investigate and procecute the individuals like so many other scandals i.e Libor
It will be difficult to prove that the market makers are breaking any rules as the way they operate, masking trades, not declaring trades, hiding trades i.e a sell as a Buy etc.

Terry topper thinks there are stupid,idiot,pathetic investors who are ignorant of the market makers traps,tricks,false moves etc.
We weren't born yesterday nor we are novices in the market.
Market manipulation is a practice widely used by the market makers and false markets created so they will make money at the expense of the seller or buyer.
The market makers are the middle men, like the banker in a game of poker.
They will make money either way, they never lose.

[villarich] 18/9/2017 14:54

Market makers have a huge influence on the price as it falls and rises. I firmly believe it is them that cause it to rocket tooThe clue is in the name - they are there to make the market

[bamboo2] 18/9/2017 14:25

I have always interpreted the 'Treeshake' comments on this bb as an attempt at irony, or punning... :-)

[terry topper] 18/9/2017 13:29

Firstly it was not aimed at you,
Secondly, I did not call you (or anybody for that matter) an idiot - it is quite possible to not be an idiot and make the occasional idiotic post (I am sure that I have done so myself).

Trust me I don't need to read any books to understand how the market works but many posters on bulletin boards need to spend some time learning about the market making function, particularly with regard to SETS stocks - the level of ignorance is breathtaking. My particular favourite is the apparent belief that market makers are absent as a price rockets as in FEVR's case and then conspire to rob the innocent private investor on the way down.
To achieve what many posters allege, apart from falling foul of the regulator, would require capital way in excess of that which is allocated to the market makers in small cap stocks.
