Gvc Share Discussion Threads

Just read that idiotic article - you could apply almost all of those 'negative' points to any stock or even any investment. It's not an argument about GVC, its an argument against investing per se. Clearly the writer has an agenda - why else throw in everything including, the kitchen sink AND Donald bleedin' Trump! Probably a frustrated short.

Betaville intelligence: Sportingbet owner GVC said to be gearing up for its next major takeover deal; spokesperson denies interest in £5 billion Playtech merger

I used to have regular contact with Bwin.party’s Communications Director who worked near me in the city and his words were that Calvin Ayre “was not a fan of us”. That being a massive understatement on his part!

[crookman] 28/2/2017 15:44

Anyone who followed Bwin.party prior to GVC gobbling it up would know that Calvin Ayre has had a chip on his shoulder for years about them and posted rubbish on his site whenever possible, seems GVC have now picked up his attention.

Blue, Fest.

Really poor article. One could apply that to any stock. Scare mongering for no reasonPlenty of more leveraged companies.Gaming is a defensive play as people will always gambleMust be trying to lower the price. Poor journalism

I have almost lost count for how many years there have been dire warnings about Turkey, Germany and other unregulated regions. The share price has always reflected those concerns so, far from it being overvalued ('up in the startosphere' to quote Calvin Ayre) the opposite has become the reality, especially so when you total up the returns we have all made, which doesn't even warrant a mention in the article.

As you said, Fest, pathetic.

.... but it ruined the run up to my blue day!

[festario] 28/2/2017 14:22

Very sloppy article once again, they point to the top line growth not being reflected in the profits, but they fail to point out the massive debt pay down in the last year for acquiring BWIN.They also say that 10% interest on borrowings in the accounts could get out of control as interest rates globally start to rise. The writer is obviously unaware that the rate of the refinanced debt is minuscule compared to what has gone before.Pathetic journalism really.

Are we sneaking up on 700p this time - going to slip past by stealth?

[mylands] 28/2/2017 10:27

Festario, I have already done that. I wonder what has happened to all those options that were granted on the BWIN takeover.

Directorate Change -

Further to GVC's announcement on 20 September 2016, the appointment of Paul Miles as a Director and Chief Financial Officer of the Company takes effect today. He succeeds Richard Cooper who steps down from the GVC Board today.

[festario] 28/2/2017 10:23

I'd like to wish Richard Cooper every success in the future, many thanks for the correspondence over the years, and long may he remain a GVC shareholder!

[mylands] 28/2/2017 10:23

So Richard Cooper has gone and Paul Miles has become CFO. The end of an era.

[mylands] 28/2/2017 10:13

Not moaning just an observation of how the share price is moving. Are the shorters trying to push it down first thing and then the bulls are taking advantage of the lower price?

[woodhawk] 28/2/2017 09:43

Oh, do stop moaning, Mylands. At it's recent nadir, the share price was almost 100p less just a few weeks ago. Now you're whingeing about a few pence up or down for an hour or two!

Anyway, looks like it's recovering now... onwards and upwards!!

[festario] 28/2/2017 09:07

Fest sticks his neck out..... blue finish says I !

[mylands] 28/2/2017 09:00

Gains of yesterday being wiped out on small volume. Seems to be the trading pattern of recent weeks, weakness in the share price in the morning then a bounce in the afternoon.

[catswhiskas] 28/2/2017 08:48

Still short to 650p .
I went onto the Mr Green Casino last night for a bit of fun and was very impressed with what they had to offer all live dealers it was actually fun to lose your money !All this electronic roulette and blackjack is rubbish you lose every time at least at the live tables you have a sporting fair chance.

[woodhawk] 27/2/2017 20:21

Just resuming where we left off a couple of weeks ago, imo. There's already so much that isn't 'in the price' yet.

[brownie69] 27/2/2017 19:18

A strong finish. News leakage?

[666james] 27/2/2017 16:32

so pleased I was wrong. Hopefully onwards and upwards...as woodhawk says "another assault on 700p"

[woodhawk] 27/2/2017 16:14

Nice intraday reversal there. Setting up for another assault on 700p?
