About time :-)

Never mind the bolly bands - decisive break through 400p - looks to be away!

[intrinsic value] 20/4/2006 13:35

Struggling with 400p which is outside the bolly bands

[the_owl] 20/4/2006 01:19

Totally agree. Looks worth a look.

GME 23p (Oil services) also worth a glance after Shroders announced 10.10% buy after hours yesterday - now 8 institutions with 60% as well as Chairman's £1m investment at 17p in Jan. Lots of excellent recent research available too...



Must keep Hunting on the radar as looks like breakout territory with oil at $72.

[dazw] 19/4/2006 13:13

Moving up nicely, a nice break through 400p should start us up to my initial 450p target.

Well said Ian

SKloot,
Your point seems to be a damning indictment of spreadbetting if you are stopped out marginally below an all time high when there was a later trade less than 1% below said high. This share has been travelling a one way street for 2 and a half years.

Well, my spreadbet position got stopped out today. I'm not suprised after the dumping of stock that has continually dampened the share price.

Sorry to say I wont be visiting this stock again.

[huggybear1954] 06/4/2006 18:10

Bit of a shocker today. Can't see any reason for it. Hopefully we'll get the Friday bounce!

[jakleeds] 06/4/2006 16:58

Perhaps Fidelity offloading some more? I have to confess to selling the rest of mine yesterday, so good luck everyone who's still here

[dazw] 06/4/2006 16:41

MM's marking down on small sells, trying to scare others into selling before the 400 is conquered. Hold tight for 450p. IMHO

[old giggleswickian] 28/3/2006 18:57

DazW,
If you look at a large chart of the last 12 months you will see that the price has never stood still and has moved by large amounts either way on an almost daily basis. If you then look at a small chart for the last 3 years you will see.........
And that is why some of us are fairly relaxed.

Ian.

[dazw] 28/3/2006 12:57

Old Giggleswickian,

I have no reason to think otherwise myself other than the strange drops we are having. Personally I would say value lies at around 450p a share IMHO.

[jakleeds] 28/3/2006 09:23

way hey back into the blue - 4 quid by end of this week if the market behaves imo

[jakleeds] 27/3/2006 17:53

Just a short-term blip imo:-

HOUSTON (AFX) -- Oil service stocks paced the energy sector's initial
declines Monday morning as the entire complex traded lower on falling crude
prices.
The Philadelphia Oil Service Index fell 1.3% to 199.64 points. The Amex Oil
Index slipped 0.5% to 1,058.12 points, while the Amex Natural Gas Index was off
0.9% to 393.08 points.

[old giggleswickian] 27/3/2006 17:45

DazW,
Most of us here are fairly confident about the prospects for future profitability but if you have any reason to think otherwise please feel free to share your thoughts.

Ian.

[dazw] 27/3/2006 16:52

Just when I though we were going to see 400 we get a drop, strange! Not too sure where we are going with this one. thoughts anyone?

[jakleeds] 26/3/2006 17:37

Interesting to note that this week, American interest rates will be raised to 4.75% - more than the UK base rate for the first time since the 1980s. Analysts at HSBC think that this will push the pound, currently at $1.75, down towards $1.50.

If this happens then it's going to have a tremendously positive impact on the earnings of companies like Hunting.

Put them in your ISA, ignore the daily fluctuations and come back to look at them in a year or two's time.

[huggybear1954] 24/3/2006 18:09

jakleeds, you were right about Fridays. Another little push and we'll be through the 4 quid mark!

[jakleeds] 23/3/2006 09:01

I think this has got something to do with the rise, haven't posted the article but here's the link

[jakleeds] 23/3/2006 08:11

Normal service resumed, I think the market is factoring in that Fidelity have nearly got rid of their holding, so the price is now being rerated accordingly

[huggybear1954] 21/3/2006 08:52

Looks like the onslaught is not over yet! Interesting that we've seen Fid dumping for the past few months, but no notification of other institutions buying. So, we have to assume that these are being soaked up by private investors.

[jakleeds] 20/3/2006 11:43

Quite right Huggy, well spotted.

I guess the moral of the story is don't buy Fideltiy funds, their goings on at HTG have certainly put me off them

[huggybear1954] 20/3/2006 11:40

Does make you wonder where the price might be now if FID had not been dumping stock all year. I also find it hard to understand why they're getting out. If ever a company had given out positive signals, HTG must be it. Now FID's holding is less than 3% I don't think there needs to be any further announcements as and when they dump the rest. If I'm wrong here, please correct me.
