31/8/2017 11:00	Cash machine; Up to buy (Berenberg) Since its profit warning in May 2016, Hostelworld has seen a continued recovery in all of its key metrics, culminating in it delivering 34% PBT growth in the first half of this year. Given its strong recovery and our growing confidence that Hostelworld can prove a growth business, we increase our EPS estimates for 2017-19E by 8%/11%/12% respectively. We also increase our price target to 370p, and upgrade our rating to Buy.	shoee62	Read Full Thread Reply
31/8/2017 08:47	Do they know it's ex-dividend day at all? I think this is a magic stock. Website's much more user-friendly than airbnb & it's kind-of recession-proof, esp with the divis. It could hit 400 at this rate. Just hoping one day it will stop vacillating so much and we won't have to trade it, just hold. Only threat is that of one of the big boys like google drinking its milkshake, as could happen with any internet services company, like rightmove. Keep an eye out, GLA.	runthejoules	Read Full Thread Reply
31/8/2017 07:58	From Today's Times: Hostelworld gives investors a thrilling ride in budget travel Extract: "With the second anniversary of its stock market listing in October, Hostelworld is the type of tech company that investors hope they are putting their money into when new listings promise the next big thing in whatever industry a business says it is hoping to revolutionise. In the case of Hostelworld it is the budget travel market that is being challenged. Shares in the Dublin-based company yesterday topped the FTSE All Share index for much of the day as they gained more than 19¼p and missed out on the top spot only in the last hour of trading." https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/business/hostelworld-gives-investors-a-thrilling-ride-in-budget-travel-vzz52pt0k	hawaly	Read Full Thread Reply

23/8/2017 12:56	Budget accommodation specialist Hostelworld Group doesn’t just want to be an online travel agent. Like Airbnb and social networks, Hostelworld is doubling down on building a sense of community among its customers. Along these lines, the company is developing a series of tools that show how it is trying to differentiate its offering to keep it ahead of others in the hostel market. Last year, Hostelworld partnered with Trip.com for its MyTrips local recommendation platform and the product has now been expanded to include a noticeboard function, which allows users to find out what is going on at places they are staying. More recently it added Speak the World, which offers a translation service powered by Google. “We have launched a number of features that are partly related to building the community, partly related to differentiating our offering, because we’re launching functionality that is very relevant to our target audience that generalist OTAs [online travel agencies] are unlikely to offer,” Chief Executive Feargal Mooney said in a telephone interview. The next phase of development, allowing guests to communicate with one another pre-trip, will begin testing later this year, he said. “We’ll become much more than just a booking platform. We’ll become effectively the [hostel] noticeboard in the pocket and give our customers reasons to download our app at the beginning of their trip and to engage users throughour their trip because what we are seeing is our customers are increasingly booking night by night as they travel,” Mooney said Mooney acknowledged that both Expedia and Booking.com could easily build this type of functionality if they wanted to but probably wouldn’t because of their wider audiences. “I think a lot of the things we’re doing or are focused on are things that absolutely Expedia could do, Booking.com could do, but they’re the sort of things that are probably unlikely to be relevant to 99 percent of their customer audience,” he said. more at htTps://skift.com/2017/08/23/hostelworld-has-ambitions-to-complement-bookings-with-a-sense-of-community/	aishah	Read Full Thread Reply

22/8/2017 15:24	Anyone spent any time looking for hostels on airbnb? I rent my rooms using airbnb but don't have much idea if it is a competitor on the hostels or 'experiences' side.	runthejoules	Read Full Thread Reply

02/8/2017 09:31	I confess based on the technicals I sold at around 346, don't get those calls so right very often, looking at the technicals suggests continued falls until it finds a level. I think it just got too high	fenners66	Read Full Thread Reply
