I hope not, this was much higher a few years back

I think European may pounce on hostel world at 1’50 a share

Should have said 2022 not 2023, even so next couple of years should be very good for HSW and you'd think recovery imminent.

Well, technically '23 is years away....

Just keeps grinding higher...Will take years for this business to fully recover, but funding in place to bridge to then.

The hostel-focused online booking platform has experienced a hugely challenging period due to the pandemic. Investor's Champion considered Hostelworld's financial prospects, strategy and the chances of it delivering a successful turnaround. Or should investors simply stick with their high-flying Ultimate Stock?

Limited equity dilution so yes plenty of upside. Also Airbnb on a very fancy rating.

They won’t be going anywhere without a Covid passport, amazed at all these travel stocks returning to good old days, they are not happening. Takes a long time to get many off these aircraft back in the air, low cost travel capacity has been removed, fares will rise, and fuel costs up considerably. Wonder how the airlines are hedged down the line!

Clear chart breakout and plenty of upside to come. Pent up demand from students should drive this a lot higher and they don't give a monkeys about covid. RM

another 25% increase in the next week or so

Don't understand how this share holds up.

Big volume gone through today..

It's a small cap but it's not a penny share. The EV is around £88m once you account for the known cash outflows in 21H1. A year ago it had an EV of £116m. But since then it has gone from a cashflow positive business with a strong balance sheet to cash outflows and begging the bank for a loan at 15% interest to keep the lights on. Yet investors think the value of the business is largely unchanged in this time.

dangersimpson2: hence its a penny share.

[dangersimpson2] 13/1/2021 11:47

Junk bond rates on debt, if they manage to get it away - not sure the equity has any value here.

[netcurtains] 13/1/2021 09:09

bookbroker: indeed there is all sorts of equipment and gadgets and Apps that the young like to take on their gap year tours or use to plan their gap tour years - they certainly could be doing some adverts... Its not rocket science.

[netcurtains] 13/1/2021 08:11

Ouch - cant win them all...

[ynot68] 13/1/2021 07:42

In talks to raise debt to strengthen balance sheet. Not surprising but confirmation of loan rather than talks more reassuring to markets I suspect. Would expect finance raise relatively straightforward and huge pent up demand when young travellers return.

[solooiler] 10/1/2021 16:11

looking at this now

[beerboy02] 10/1/2021 15:48

Yes think your right , young people seeking adventure after a year of lock downs, not sure about the other package holiday companies though with the number of people on Furlough and possible lack of funds.

[netcurtains] 08/1/2021 16:18

Gut feeling ultra cheap accommodation (mainly aimed at young) will recover first. Spring is only a couple of months away.. Booooom! Got to be in it to win it. (but might have to wait - you never know the day or hour)

[netcurtains] 16/12/2020 09:38

Easyjet big FTSE riser today - backpack holidays around Europe are often linked to Easyjet flights....
