The reason for todays fall


FSA probes ICAP over Libor fixing

I've just fired a load of Shorts at 330. Let's see if it has any effect..

C'mon Inde; you, me - outside!

[nofool] 18/1/2013 16:25

330 is an obvious barrier. A breach of that and I'll be looking at the big one - namely 350.

A breach of that, and the Inde will have got it right for once lol.

[nofool] 17/1/2013 15:01

Why should this break the trend line Jeff?? Watch out!

[jeffian] 17/1/2013 13:15

Going well, nofool? (see 1575)

[nofool] 17/1/2013 12:03

67% of clients with IG are Selling today, currently.

yet up it goes..(for now)

[tom111] 17/1/2013 11:56

Bought in at 3.24p today i'm also in Man.The charts for both seem to be similar judging by the last couple of weeks activity.Hope this is not the kiss of death lol

[nofool] 17/1/2013 11:50

The only thing that can stop it...is Fall Street

but that's not going to happen, is it

[nofool] 17/1/2013 11:20

Going for 330 next..

yawn

[nofool] 16/1/2013 09:42

Now then, what we need is some good old fashioned volatility in this stock. Hard to trade it properly while it just meanders in one direction..

[nofool] 14/1/2013 09:55

The long term downtrend is still in place; it's leveling out, but it's still in place.

ICAP - still a great trade Short, or Long.


The Inde should have made that tip at 280p, but of course no one would have listened then..

Bit late now but this was tip of the year in the inde

ICAP (307p) has endured a rough year. Banks aren't trading with each other like they used to, and interest rates have remained consistently low, removing a key source of volatility that the company thrives on. Michael Spencer, founder and chief executive, has complained about the toughest trading conditions in his 36-year career. The company wouldn't appear to be in a happy place but Mr Spencer is no one's fool. He has battened down the hatches and slashed costs. ICAP now trades on under 9 times next year's earnings, and yields 7 per cent. The shares have been creeping up recently because the market has realised that the shares have been oversold.

..there's Bears in them hills

[nofool] 10/1/2013 21:38

Well if this can get to 360p, I will have to admit defeat.

[jeffian] 10/1/2013 12:13

Welcome to 2013! I hold the other side of your bet, so one of us is guaranteed to be happy!

8-)

[nofool] 10/1/2013 11:06

Happy to stay with this one if you are Jeff.

D-day for the sp!


Obviously I'm Shorting the top of the trend. Let's see if I lose..

320 - 330 is the Shorting zone imo. DYOR

[jeffian] 10/1/2013 11:02

Here, try this one.

[jeffian] 10/1/2013 11:00

Why have we reverted to this old 2002 thread about IAP? It ain't even got a graph in the header!

[nofool] 10/1/2013 10:48

Twist..or bust??

[nofool] 09/1/2013 17:05

320 is a VERY important position for the share price here. ..a meeting with destiny

[nofool] 02/1/2013 19:47

ICAP certainly.

(medium to long term view imo, dyor)

[jeffian] 02/1/2013 19:46

The market, or ICAP?

[nofool] 02/1/2013 19:35

Yes very odd adam, for such a dog as this. However the market had momentum this morning didn't it!


Too many bulkheads have been damaged, so I'm confident - "the ship will go down".

[adam] 02/1/2013 10:10

Up a little today despite being XD for 6.6p

Dividend
Consistent with previous practice, ICAP's interim dividend has been calculated at 30% of the prior year's full year dividend. As a result, an interim dividend of 6.60p per share (30 September 2011 - 6.00p per share) covering the six month period to 30 September 2012 will be paid on the 8 February 2013 to shareholders on the register at 4 January 2013.
During the period the Group bought back 97,523 shares into Treasury Shares at a cost of £0.3 million.
