Gresham Technologies Share Discussion Threads

miti 1000 great to see you bring so much to the table! Suddenly this place got a bit nastier.

On a more positive note we are past q3 hopefully we will get a trading statement, if I were performing as good as I suspect Gresham are doing I would be shouting from the roof tops.

I dont think the market cap is high enough for trackers to starting biting, perhaps when we are nearer £200m (this article is a bit old and markets have risen since) but we are not far off.

Defining Large, Mid and Small-Cap Companies

Companies are considered to be large-, mid- or small-cap based on the market capitalisation of a company, which is its overall value; the greater the value, the larger the cap.

Morningstar defines large-cap companies as those that account for the top 70% of the capitalisation of a domestic stock market. Mid-cap stocks represent the next 20% and small-cap stocks make up the remainder.

In the UK large caps are generally considered to be those that are listed in the FTSE 100 index. The smallest company within the FTSE 100 is Weir Group with a market cap of £3.8 billion.

Mid-cap companies are generally considered to be those listed on the FTSE 250, which ranges from a market cap of approximately £4 billion down to £500 million.

The FTSE Small Cap index includes stocks worth as little as £150 million. Shares with a market cap of less than £150 million may be found on the Alternative Investment Market. These are known as micro-cap stocks but are still included within Morningstar’s small-cap category. These micro-cap stocks are less likely to be found in small-cap funds and are less liquid than their larger counterparts making them more risky.

and that was very constructive and insightful

Thanks for that Gottafly .Nice to see a factual post rather the drivel about every share price move.

Good video and sounds like a new untapped market. Mind you I didnt understand what he was talking about.

[gottafly] 29/9/2017 16:54

Looks like Ian Manocha is continuing a higher profile, good to see more promotional activity, the video is worth a watch.

New market cap might just mean certain tracker funds buy a few.

lastminute-world posted this comment on the iii discussion thread.

I think support levels are 180 161 150 120 110 and then 90...

Please do your own research.

Seems that Qantas and lastminute-world think the same!

No u in GottaFly either!

[johnv] 27/9/2017 17:30

Actually it is the other way round, the editor from techinvest said that your shares don't anything for ages maybe drift down slowly and then suddenly it takes off. Unfortunately for have to be in there during the boring times to be able to catch the jump up. I dont own any of these yet just waiting to catch them at the right time.

[qantas] 27/9/2017 12:05

Gottafly

No u in QANTAS.....

[gottafly] 27/9/2017 11:55

Quantas

Sorry it is my business as I am investor, are you here to just comment or are you a GHT investor, fair question in my view. From your reply I take it that you are not.

[qantas] 27/9/2017 11:45

Gottafly

Just a observation non of your business if I am invested or not?

Please do your own research...

[gottafly] 27/9/2017 10:47

Quantas and the point of your post is?

Recently the share price rise has been fast and is now drifting down slowly.

Are you invested in GHT or are you just having some 'fun'.

Oh and by the way DYOR.

[from8to800] 27/9/2017 09:36

You fortune tellers and clichés spitters are just unbearable. Go share your unwanted """"wisdom"""" back to stocktwits or something.

[qantas] 27/9/2017 09:15

The elevator down is always fast and going up is slow.

[gottafly] 27/9/2017 08:09

Well it seems that the share price if drifting down as many of us thought it would once the buying pressure had ceased. I am sticking to my year end for cast of 199.5p which means the share price will effectively remain stable for the next few months. DD I think you might be a little optimistic in your upwards revision. That said if we can some positive announcements regarding new signings who knows where the share price could end up.

[double double] 25/9/2017 21:57

See my post 6700 been expecting a pull back as we were overbought. A good area to be around for a little while for support before trying to move higher. We could move higher sooner if we get q3 news in the next few weeks.

[4-10] 25/9/2017 20:40

any ideas why there is a price drop today, based on the trades makes no sense.

[richjp] 22/9/2017 17:04

I suspect that this week's buying may be a result of the presentations made to institutions at the end of July. Many people in the city are away in August and often not a lot happens until later.

GHT is a small cap stock with not much of a free float, so any decent amount of buying can drive the share price upwards quickly. I don't think it is at all uncommon for any small cap stock to move by ten per cent in a day and it does not necessarily mean that anything major is going on. I think it quite possible that the share price may just drift sideways for a while, as it has done before, or even drift back a little, particularly if there is no autumn trading update.

With the wodge I have in GHT, I am delighted that my target of 200P for this year has been reached already and although we probably all always would like more, anything else this year is a bonus. It is encouraging if professional buyers are prepared to pay the prices we have seen this week, so hopefully that will establish a new base, but we might have to wait a while for the next move.

Luckymouse you seem a techie we have been lacking such on this board. I will leave it you as some of us here are mere amatures at it at best.

[double double] 22/9/2017 16:08

No worries. Not just this company but share prices are moved by the "market" with information that is not in the public. That is why you often see prices rise or fall ahead of RNSs. RNSs sometimes merely confirm the "market speculation".

[luckymouse] 22/9/2017 14:15

agreed - its not a typical trading stock - its a lightweight staircaser that hadnt reached target yet. I would say swing traders aim for 50%-100% to get the 3:1 RRR.
Good fundamentals here btw

Luckymouse I see where you are coming from and I could be wrong but this is not a typical stock for trading as the share price can go on for weeks and months with little or no movement. Also once traders get their 10% they usually take profit and move on. We have seen no serious pull back or selling.
