Hah! - I couldn't agree more

Breached 400 but seems to have bounced today. I hate this stock. I only keep it to remind me not to be so stupid again

[cc2014] 05/1/2018 13:15

Well the worst dog in my portfolio is making an attempt at a recovery.

Some way to go yet...

[cyfran101] 18/11/2017 23:45

True but if there is news about Dubrovnik or Penghu and other opportunities progressing, particularly any outside the med' then sentiment may turn. Turkish ports are at a nadir but ISIS issues are receding and resolving legal issues will be a catylst for share price improvement.

Plunging to new lows...chart is horrendous

[cyfran101] 10/11/2017 18:59

Pity about Dubrovnik delays though encouraging words about Cuba. The whole IPO was based around diversifying around the world to offset Turkish bias but unfortunately its taken on more urgency recently.

Well done mms you managed to get spread within 2p, hopefully stay that way 👍

[davwall] 09/11/2017 10:23

I suppose it could have been worse, but that's about the only positive. It certainly needs an upturn in sentiment re Turkey, but that's a while off even assuming no further bad news in the country. If they can get Cuba that would be a significant positive step, but talk is cheap - action please.

[cc2014] 09/11/2017 09:52

Well I read the update today and I find it does little for me. Some things are going well but clearly operational problems in others.

There's enough there to make me optimistic but it's going to take time. I'd see 530 as a decent entry point but I'm not in the mood to buy any more.

Shares magazine today - GPH third worst performing IPO of the year (out of 77). Down 31% vs average +11.8%

[linton5] 06/11/2017 15:28

[linton5] 02/11/2017 12:35

Tighten the spread please chaps

[linton5] 02/11/2017 12:25

A careful transference of stock here I see

Still in too but also feeling misled at the IPO. Won't sell yet.

[cc2014] 24/10/2017 12:49

I bought at the IPO, for the first time in a long time didn't do my research properly, but regardless I'm pretty unimpressed. Fortunately it's only a small amount and the dividend is some small positive albeit the only one I can find.

I shall stay in a little longer but will have to think about tax losses by the end of March.

[davwall] 23/10/2017 16:28

Right now this is a dog for any original holders, and going down once again. Duped is about right too. I'll stick with it on the hope they will actually do some acquisition deals. I don't want to write off my investment at these levels.

[eltox] 23/10/2017 13:19

I'm in the same situation as you davwall, bought at the IPO and added on some weakness. 18% down overall now. I guess they couldn't predict the Turkish issues but I'm feeling a bit duped by the IPO hype. Not sure whether to stick with it..

[toffeeman] 23/10/2017 12:15

Still (begrudgingly) here

[davwall] 23/10/2017 11:24

Any holders still out there..?

As a holder since the IPO, I am not feeling too kindly to this outfit, although I did add on one of the drops since.

I'm frustrated at the lack of hard evidence of progress re the M & A strategy that was supposedly what the IPO was mainly to fund. Other than words such as these in the half-yearly report:

" Our M&A pipeline of international cruise ports remains strong with progress being made on a number of our target acquisitions and we will update the market as these progress. Our overall strategy of expanding our global footprint of cruise ports from the Mediterranean to the Caribbean and Asia, as set out at the IPO, remains on track."

With all the big talk in the prospectus I'd naively thought the company must have done the ground work and be poised to act straight after the IPO with a couple of acquisitions following soon after. Clearly I got that wrong, but it will be really good when something positive actually happens.

[linton5] 30/8/2017 11:35

"Robust financial profile with Net Debt/ EBITDA of 2.9x, in line with financial policy"
suggests their financial policy needs a rethink!

I'm surprised weakness in Turkish ports came as such a surprise, and debt level suggests a serious recession would be their undoing.

[farmsted] 21/8/2017 08:45

It's rubbish,

[eaaxs06] 19/7/2017 11:31

There are now nearly 20 trades of 1,000 shares a time, at 699p. Some recorded as buys, some as sells!How odd?
