There's new news 15/3 on there website.. a new appointment to the gas side of buisness.

[penpont] 15/3/2019 22:24

It's not results but a pre-close trading update which should come by end March.Has come on 28/3 in each of 2 previous years.

[knausy] 15/3/2019 21:23

Last year's results were declared on 5 June. If to be by end March we would know by now. Evironmently it's a rapidly changing world and companies like FCRM and Bilby etc have to keep up or ...... There are no upcoming events listed on the website.

Still a market in maintaining the gas network despite new builds being barred from gas (from 2025 if it goes ahead).

For me the excitement is around the EV charging points market as you'd think going forwards every property will need one if that's the way things are going...

Plus the divi yield helps as long as maintained/grows.

I think the lack of news doesn't help but they have network operator awards coming up!

[iceman82] 15/3/2019 12:32

the results should be due soon then maybe end of march, lets see id divi will be maintained as well, can anyone honestly tell me what do you think the biggest issues or challenges this company has in the coming months or years

I admire your optimism. I think it would depend on results and their declared strategy to overcome the 2025 Initiative. I think they are well placed to see this as an opportunity, but without strong results fear it will be some time before we see a 25% increase in the valuation.

Shareholders' rights may be different than those for a UK incorporated company.

Not sure why the differences

Thanks. Looks like the Morningstar list has omitted its largest shareholder!

Ronin

Is was on their investors page on their website. Out at moment so will post link tomorrow if you cant find it.

[davr0s] 13/3/2019 19:27

Because there is an opposing seller willing to absorb at that price

[ronin92] 13/3/2019 19:05

@fruitfly2

I've seen humongous trades go through without budging the price on some AIM stocks while a few much smaller trades over an hour drive a large price change a few days later.

I have assumed it's because the large transactions go through at prices agreed between institutions while the small orders hit the market maker(s) who adjusts to control their exposure. I could be wrong though.

@tiswas

Where did you find this James Sharp holding? I don't see them in any of the RNS disclosures. Largest I can find is BlackRock with 9.5%.

[tiswas] 13/3/2019 15:31

Does anyone know how James sharp and co came to own 14%.

I can see they are stockbrokers, are they also fund managers? Not come across them before.

[fruitfly2] 13/3/2019 13:07

Significant buying but price doesn't move, how come?

[podgyted] 13/3/2019 11:00

Back in to see if 40p holds. Some significant buying today.

[iceman82] 11/3/2019 13:49

40 p .... I bought it to early..... again. When will I learn:)

[podgyted] 11/3/2019 10:11

Yep - sellers in control.

Will keep an eye on until it stabilizes.

[davr0s] 10/3/2019 09:48

So with FCRM at a 2year low to me says regardless of fundamentals, brokers, forecasts, opinions that the sellers are in control of the share price atm

[davr0s] 10/3/2019 09:47

Price moves when and only when buyers are willing to buy at higher prices and sellers stop absorbing the buyers at that price. My point is that determining something showing as a buy or sell on ADVFN is misplaced - all it does is show where the trade occurred wrt the bid offer price and it doesn't even get that right 100% of the time. So high volume shows there is some interest but until price moves you have to work on the basis that the person selling is happy to continue doing so and could exhaust the buyers so price might move the other way

[opodio] 10/3/2019 08:06

into the gutter share price to 20p

[iceman82] 10/3/2019 08:05

but if the amount of buyers is bigger then those who selling then that pushes the share price up, and that what we all hope here

[davr0s] 09/3/2019 21:31

Because they are trades - they are always trades and it applies to every share. Yet people spend hours posting that trades are buys or sells. For everyone buying there is always someone selling on the other side and vv.

[iceman82] 09/3/2019 17:47

wow 323 k? that is big volume, how do you know hey are not buys?
