US cinema market seems in robust health

hxxps://uk.webfg.com/news/news-and-announcements/us-blockbusters-boost-cineworld-revenues--3691321.html

Cineworld on Wednesday said 2018 revenues would increase by 7.2%, driven by a strong US film slate with films such as Black Panther attracting record numbers of filmgoers.

Group admissions increased by 2.6% compared with the prior year to reach a record 308m

No idea though whether FFI provided a completion contract to Black Panther or not.

You want pieric

do not really agree with you dave, companies like these at beaten down prices, with relatively small correlation to the economy in general, are pretty rare and can offer tremendous value, and i'm not talking about 20%. Maybe my post wasn't clear enough, i hope anyone can explain me the risks, mainly in the insurance part of the business, so i dare to increase my position. I think it is potentially that kind of opportunity(fevertree like), especially since there are so many new moving parts, a few disappointments, maybe some forced selling, who knows? and nobody really grasps the potential and the risks. because for me, it can also be that kind of company with eternal disappointments and hidden risks.

interesting one though

Even if you are not sure about the business or long term the overhang play itself should generate plenty of interest. I'm sure plenty of buyers are thinking there is a quick 20-40% here when the seller clears.

[dave4545] 16/1/2019 10:44

835k bought already jeez

Not even 3 hours in and not including delayed trades.

22.5-22.975p

[kirmich] 16/1/2019 10:44

It seems all buys today? 835.000 for now and counting. Picked some up. Lot of new moving parts, don't yet fully understand all the risks yet, like in the insurance business, establishing their own insurer, hence a small position. If one care to explain, feel free.

The main reason i bought in : management apparently had the foresight to diversify the business, cause the way i see it it's the old business dragging it down and the new businesses actually "rescuing" it from being much worse.

yep, that sounds plausible dave4545...interesting times ahead.

[dave4545] 16/1/2019 10:06

Mental this.

I wonder if one of the 3-10% holders is the seller.

Unless 2 or more sub 3% sellers are at it then they should be cleared out by now.

Online is good thought 22.5-22.99p so mm's bidding mid price now for stock.

If volumes carry on like this you like to think the overhang will clear this week.

[pre] 16/1/2019 09:26

not seen a holdings rns for ages...looks like some stock changing hands.

[dave4545] 16/1/2019 09:22

467k bought already

Still the seller has more left

[dave4545] 16/1/2019 08:11

First upward movement in the bid too.

Guessing other mm's are aware overhang is clearing and want stock ahead of the bounce

[tallprawn] 16/1/2019 08:05

Strong buying here last few days - This is well overdue a rise back towards 30p imo now.

There's probably an advfn bot that randomly likes & dislikes posts purely to give the impression of more user engagement!

Mystery men

[ultimatewarrior] 15/1/2019 20:48

Yet they never post themselves - premium posters in the shadows

[dave4545] 15/1/2019 20:24

The LSE is reporting another glut of 1 day delayed trades.

All of them at 22p. 200k, 470k, 195k, 300k, 200k and 131k

Once again serious volumes of stock changing hands with again no movement in price.

Surely a holding Rns is overdue here.

[dave4545] 15/1/2019 16:12

22.98p offer now

And still no mm will move up to 22p bid

They push almost every stock on my monitor up and down but on this one it's a total stalemate

[dave4545] 15/1/2019 09:07

Online bid is up to 22p mid price now

[dave4545] 14/1/2019 20:52

This cannot continue buywell.

If it's sub 3% holder or even 2 holders the volumes and constant uncrossing of size for months now would clear them and at least have one new holding Rns of a new buyer or increased stake.

Stick my neck out and say tomorrow is the day.

[buywell3] 14/1/2019 20:49

Till I say '' ShazzaM'' in polish

[dave4545] 14/1/2019 20:47

Uncrossed at 23p so it means it will open showing 1p down when mm's open at 22p mid price in the morning unless news.

Once again massive delayed trades from previous day, how long can this continue for??

[tsmith2] 14/1/2019 17:09

A very juicy 300k buy
