Agree with previous posts - excellent company with sustainable divi.

Yep looks a decent bet at the current price, steady company with a nice divi, I'm in today.

I like it. Risk/reward ratio now justifies a medium to long term investment. Two years until earnings return to 2018 levels, but an excellent dividend until then, which is forecast to be maintained. Cushioned against market volatility, this seems like a good home for my money in the next few years, particularly now rivals PLUS appear to be on the slippery slope.

Appreciate the reasons for reduced revenue and earnings but not helped IMO when they restrict trades when the market is volatile, especially when that's their bread and butter.

DD4, it is regulation that is causing the problems here.

I thought IG relied on market volatility but tried putting a couple of long spread bets on yesterday and couldn't, I assume because of market volatility!.

Match get your money into PLUS mate.

[matchupitchu] 21/3/2019 10:17

Ahh well....sold as I can only see further downside in the ST....GL to holders.

You will neve stop the leaks...…̷0;.and trading on the news.

[contrarian joe] 21/3/2019 09:06

Traders will most likely manage risk by selling before results or trading up dates,more so when the business model is unsure, that's not to suggest information doesn't get leaked!.

Because PLUS is massively undervalued. PLUS MC only a paltry 850 mill compared to the MC of IGG which is 2 bill. Both generate similar profits!!

[jaf111] 21/3/2019 08:47

Why not switch??....IG is THE quality player in the market!

[carer] 21/3/2019 08:46

There is a strong possibility that there were some insider dealings yesterday. price dropped before the result is released!

[lodgeview] 21/3/2019 08:45

Wish I had spare funds. I'd throw everything at this. Unfortunately all my funds are tied up in PLUS

[apad] 21/3/2019 08:09

Given that they are reporting the short term effects of regulation it seems appropriate to me that quarter to quarter numbers are more informative.

Am I wrong?

Q4 "difficult to predict accurately" - they have several weeks trading activity already to form an initial view.

Looks more like they don't want to admit that Q4 is also weak.

[prokartace] 21/3/2019 07:52

Every sale yesterday should be investigated. Its a disgrace.

[pj0077] 21/3/2019 07:25

Q3 revenue down 29% on Q3 last yearMischievously, IG report revenue down 12% on the previous QuarterDeliberately misleading

[discodave4] 20/3/2019 20:18

If revenue is down about 6%-7% then I still reckon year end profit before tax will be about £239m, eps 52p. I still reckon a PE rating of 10-12 is sector norm now.Also be interesting to see if UK/EU retail/professional split is still about 30%/70%.For the record not a holder, on my watch list.

[horndean eagle] 20/3/2019 18:43

Trading statement tomorrow.

[prokartace] 20/3/2019 15:55

As usual someone knows something the unfortunate PI(me) doesn't know about yet!

[lodgeview] 20/3/2019 15:51

Totally crazy drop. Opportunity if funds permit IMO

[woodhawk] 20/3/2019 15:24

I think you'll find a lot of the market has taken a tumble this afternoon - thanks to our idiotic Prime Minister.
