Ig Share Discussion Threads

IGG customer service now slipping, I couldn't understand a word in a recent contact with one of their agents and she had to contact someone else to answer a simple query! Doesn't bode well for retaining customers imo.

I see the Tastytrade UK launch as a positive step. It´s about time that IGG looks to make the acquisition more than a sum of the parts.

I am a little baffled why they havent managed to follow through on their roll-out of TT in Canada though, surely a very similar market opportunity.

Undervalued - Could this be a take over target like HL.?

Glad that on a short term basis you've got this "wrong". My position in this is so small it's not worth thinking about £2.8k...I'll just collect the income

4.6% down on my last sell.

[adamb1978] 10/6/2024 15:38

less than 1% down?

I'm on holiday but noticed huge share price drop, is there any known reason?

[iceagefarmer] 07/6/2024 11:20

decided to close my aacount with IG..and look elsewhere

[iceagefarmer] 06/6/2024 05:29

they take bets on vast too now

I have noticed that spread x always cost more than IG. Spread x is only good for QBT.

[iceagefarmer] 05/6/2024 09:14

i dont really want to leave IG because the spreads are far better than spreadex but maybe its time

[luckyabbeygale] 05/6/2024 09:09

Get an account with spread x. Does not matter whether it's in your own name or not.

[iceagefarmer] 05/6/2024 09:06

THEY ARE HAPPY TO TAKE YOUR BETS WHEN THEY FALL IN PRICE BUT WONT TAKE YOUR BETS WHEN THEY ARE DOING WELL..THINK I NEED A NEW SPREAD BET COMPANY..ANY SUGGESTIONS?

My current capital gain far outweighs the Dividend value, so just waiting for the right time to sell my holding.

[hunter154] 03/6/2024 19:44

Decent momentum recently. Up 52p in the last 1 month.

It will get harder for hedge funds.
They might have to make money by actually buying something rather than shorting it as tides are changing

[gbh2] 29/5/2024 07:15

SP marched to the top of the hill then marched back down again, it's just a game to Hedge Funds!

Two of my mid caps that were bombed out have bid interest…HL and KWS.
Along with IGG, I couldnt understand why they were so cheap. I get the feeling that private equity will take IG over, as it has 13% fcf yield so an acquirer can use the cashflow to pay off interest, unless the Share Price starts to move.

I am very enthused - I think UK value is making a turnaround here.

[lovewinshatelosses] 09/5/2024 14:31

I hope he does. Not long to find out...

[hunter154] 09/5/2024 13:51

A NASQAQ secondary listing would get us on pe=20 (we are at 9). Surely it is the best way to drive returns for us.

[hunter154] 09/5/2024 13:49

Hey LWHL

its a watch and wait game. It would be amazing if the new boss did a pre- ye trading update by eom. Might get the Share Price moving.

Both of us were banging the table to have the C suite fired for over a year now and it kind of happened. Call it wishful thinking, but I think new guy will turn this ship around. He has already got rid of the deadwood.

[lovewinshatelosses] 09/5/2024 12:51

Markets at ATH's, lots of optimism, this one is IMO simply following the current trend.
Not a dog, by any means, but nothing to get excited about either, based on the last update.
The next one (in July I think?) is the one that I am going to pay particular attention to. The new boss will IMO have had long enough to get to grips with the whole operation by now.
Those historic disappointments, as outlined by a few of us in the past, were squarely on JF.
I am looking for confirmation that TT is now booking profits. Increasing revenue is great, but profit is what matters. Especially when you paid a handsome price for the acquisition in the first place, in case anyone has forgotten.
Also costs down would be good, or at least not further up.
Anyway, I continue to follow with interest, but not a holder again at this point. GLA.
