888 share price receiving the same treatnent

[hillbrown] 08/8/2017 15:01

I could not resist another top up (5k shares @7.675)by CFD.

Up and down we go, the same with Sterling. The market hasn't cottoned on at all to the dramatic fall in Sterling, which is now about to fall below 1.10Euro/£, and the positive effect on the div. We are down over 25 cents since the Brexit referendum.

Must admit I am losing patience here

[mylands] 08/8/2017 14:10

800p seems as far away as ever. Any ideas why we are seeing a falling SP?

[festario] 08/8/2017 14:07

Pretty much every gaming stock down 2% simultaneously, a bargain I can't resist.

[festario] 08/8/2017 14:03

I can't believe I was able to buy another 3000 of these beauties as low as 770p just now!

Here's hoping for a close over £8... would be a nice end to the week!

[cheshiremoggie] 04/8/2017 13:07

Agree with everything you say brownie69 - nice one.

Personally I think it would be a bad idea to bid for 888. Bwin and sportingbet were poorly run and the value created by the GVC takeovers has been vast.
888 is decently run so the benefits from the merger would only be down to economies of scale.
There is a whole world of opportunity out there and the world doesnt revolve round UK gaming companies. IMHO GVC would be best to look to the rest of the world rather than the UK for a takeover.

I would anticipate that once the bwin integration is complete, GVC will be ready for some real takeover action.

Roll on 2018.

but still cheap in my view

[loganair] 04/8/2017 11:26

I don't think so as 888 share price has risen so dramatically over the past year.

[deanowls] 04/8/2017 10:08

Anyone have any thoughts on gvc taking out 888, fair few staff working for gvc that worked there previously and reading through their sportsbook whilst growing is not a large part of their business, obvious synergy savings similar to what has been done before.

Personally I think That we will see them move within the next year, further consolidation in the sector and to have the leading tech puts these companies together.

There's guys on here that know more than me but would they want to move before any ( long awaited) USA opening up which would push stock prices higher?

[brownie69] 04/8/2017 09:42

Plasbryn,

I'd say a qualified yes.

On fundamental GVC is cheap. It deserves a growth rating IMO, and yet its still at the cheaper end of the sector.

The share price took a knock in part perhaps due to the Turkish clampdown. however the operators are dealing with the site blocking and are quite good at rolling to new URL's these days. So i think worse fears there are being allayed.

The other issue that overhangs the share price is the risk that the technical integration of the Bwin platform does no get completed on time and without business interruption. Based on the track record of the team I have every faith, but until the announcement is made that its done there will be a discount IMO. Following such an announcement I'd expect the share price to pop and could easily hit 850p in short order.

Is this the time to be adding ahead of the results?

[timanglin] 03/8/2017 17:32

So you think your sterling exists? To be fair I do seem to be OCD on cryptocurrencies, especially programmable smart contract irrevocable open sourced blockchain ones. Anyway enough off topic. Thanks everyone for 'listening' at last it seems that the market is working out the cash generation from gvc from the synergy and debt savings

[shaker44] 03/8/2017 12:05

And maybe London Bridge- NOT Tower Bridge!!

[rbcrbc] 03/8/2017 11:30

Timanglin, I have some tulip bulbs to sell you. And Tulip bulbs actually exist !!!

[timanglin] 02/8/2017 19:33

I don't go off topic often. However have become interested in cryptocurrencies, especially ethereum based. Plexcoin could be a scam however IF successful would make owning and transacting in cryptocurrencies a lot easier. Maybe have a look...

Can't do that from my iPad sadly, but I might switch the lap top on especially!

[conundrum] 02/8/2017 14:43

Festario,

If you click in the large chart in the header, then change the period.
No option for 7 years but could either select 5 years or all, then click on draw.
"All", in the case of GVC, goes back to 2005.

[festario] 02/8/2017 13:17

I sometimes like to click on the 3 year chart, and smile to myself.I wish there was a 7 year chart I could view!

What the Analysis have been saying about WMH results:

Meanwhile, Peel Hunt said today's interim results “seem like progress” and prompted it to reverse the downgrades it made only weeks ago. The broker has cranked the rating back up to 'add' from 'hold' and inflated the price target to 290p from 254p.

Laith Khalaf, at retail-focused broker Hargreaves Lansdown, cut the bookie some slack.

“After a pretty miserable 2016, these results finally delivered some good news,” he said.

“A punter-friendly set of football results at the back end of last season conspired to send win margins down, thus hampering profit growth; however, given these results were plastered all over the back pages, analysts had already nudged expectations down. The fact William Hill has managed to deliver staking growth across the board means the future looks a bit brighter,” he added.

“The dark cloud on the horizon is the threat of increased regulation. A crackdown on fixed-odds betting terminals is looking increasingly likely, and with each of the machines in William Hill’s fleet earning the group over £1,000 a week, any significant changes would hit the group hard,” Khalaf noted.



It seems to be the on-line side that is really doing well and boosting growth while
the results mirror those of competitor Ladbrokes Coral, which has also seen a decline in betting at its high street shops.

I see William Hill having a good day ... (ah, see mentioned already above)
