Luckily not something we have to worry about. The main thing I'm weighing up is what will happen now the long term resistance of £15.60 is broken. In theory it should cause a decent rise given how long it has held.
By the way I have this update being worth at least 15% because the cost synergies have also gone up £5m for FY 21 on top of the 10% material statement. When added to the 'ahead' statement and cash generation those alone should make it worth over £18.60 same basis. Will be interesting to see how far it can go.

Edit: Managed a cheeky add whilst writing this at £15.94.

Another 'beat' - would hate to think what market reaction would be to a 'miss'!

[rampmeister] 27/8/2020 23:09

Closing in towards new ath. Think target is 1572p.

Nice close.

[squintyflinty1] 11/8/2020 15:40

Bit of profit taking but this should very shortly be heading towards £20

[investing2retire] 11/8/2020 15:20

I've been in FUTR for a while since 1200s.hlad to seenits breaking out towards previous resistance.

[lomax99] 11/8/2020 14:44

Just hoping the shorters are enjoying the rise!

[ayl30] 11/8/2020 14:40

Good day, back to 1500p but no comments?

[alphabeta4] 29/7/2020 10:03

Breakout? Upward bowl been forming and price didn't drop back as much as last time after the update.

[cheshire pete] 20/7/2020 20:08

COVID has helped FUTR. No more magazines in waiting rooms as health hazard. Looking on line instead.
Wonder if the hedgies shorting took this into account.

[ayl30] 20/7/2020 14:13

Agree, better to beat than disappoint. Good longer term hold

[alphabeta4] 20/7/2020 13:52

Well, £14 share price 21st February + 5 months organic growth + 5 months cash generation + 2%? ahead of consensus statement = £13.64 as I type. Should be north of £15 IMHO but happy to wait. If like last year today's statement will be the foundation for a larger beat ts in early Sept.

[cornishman33] 20/7/2020 10:51

I thought that was a decent update, but did not expect the reaction to be this positive. The all time high in sight.

[burn248] 11/6/2020 15:10

Standard life adding!!!!

[lomax99] 31/5/2020 09:35

Really feel for them.....

[alphabeta4] 29/5/2020 14:54

Growing problem for the shorters? None of them had sold as of 3 days ago but they have stopped adding to their positions. Some doubts must be occurring surely?

[sweenoid] 26/5/2020 14:16

Gotta say I sold up just short of £13, profits have to be taken and they were sweet. Delighted the shorters have taken a real ‘kicking’;

A great company, well run, but greed is bad and 60 odd % profit on a very good bet in a few months is not to be sniffed at, best of luck to holders

FUTR is most definitely on my watchlist for....the future 👏✅8521;

looking for around £14.50 minimum here, my thinking is most companies reporting earning unaffected by Covid 19 are trading at or above pre covid levels, here they have £14 plus extra cash on balance sheet and 3 months earnings growth. Will be keeping an eye for if the shorters haven't sold as feels like there could be a bit of a squeeze to come.

OT - I have taken a small position in RCH this morning. My thoughts are it's still trading at just above it's lows for the crisis but potential will rise as discussions move towards the 15/6 shop re-openings? It's a newspaper publisher which was doing well pre crisis in making the move towards a more online business model (was trading at 180p). Even as a trade looks worth 80p for a quick turn?

[sweenoid] 26/5/2020 09:13

Whoosh 👏😁

New interim results video out on the Future web-site.

[sweenoid] 22/5/2020 11:39

Shorting positions can be found here



Kuvari and Cape shorted at approx £10 and have built up their short positions since, looks to have been a very bad bet :-)
Coltrane have been a bane on some of my stocks- balls of steel, I hate shorter’s but I have to credit them for patience, let’s hope they all get burned here.

1180 holding solid at the moment

[alphabeta4] 22/5/2020 11:35

Coltrane and Kuvari look particularly exposed, a fair chunk of their positions were opened in March around the 900p level at best.

[ihatemms] 22/5/2020 11:14

There’s a lot of shorters that need to close - over 4%. That’s over 4m shares at some point need to bought back.

[ramridge] 22/5/2020 11:12

Still lots of headroom for the share price to move up. It is still down -25% since start of the year, and -22% down since stock market drop in mid-February.
