Up 50p.

Advfn chartists having problem keeping up to speed!

£10 here we come?

[wendsworth] 03/3/2011 07:57

Terrific set of results. Dividend UP 29%. Final Dividend 17p! Should see this share go considerably higher.

Nasdaq

Close): Leading Japanese shares fell on Wednesday, wiping out the gains made in recent days.

Another rise in oil prices and continuing turmoil in the Middle East prompted the drop.

Oil rose more than $3 to over $116 a barre with concerns centred on Libya's troubles spreading to the rest of the Middle East.

Japan's Nikkei average fell more than 2.4% to 10,492.38 points, Sharp was the biggest faller losing 4.8%.

It fell after Morgan Stanley cut its rating to "equal-weight" from "overweight".

Veg Man : NASDAQ currently up 0.78%. If that augurs well for the DOW and it finishes strongly then IMI could well have a favourable trading 'climate' for tomorrow's results.

wendsworth I think you are spot on regarding the fall back.IMI dos seem to be a share that follows the FT very closely me thinks.

[wendsworth] 01/3/2011 10:30

Veg Man : If only it were that easy ! Trends can be meaningless . My view is that IMI has already its fall back and will go on from here. Final Dividend should be 15p 'ish.

Bluebelle : There is a 'truism' in effect that when you trade short term things can catch you out and when you invest medium to long term 'up she goes'!!! In other words...there's always a decision to be made ! As a result I set limit buys and sells ..hence my previous sale of this stock at 998p which was deliberately pitched just short of the £10!

That's certainly what appears to have happened with GKN (which I also hold) today. As I've said before, if I had a short time scale, this wouldn't be a stock I'd necessarily pick.

[veg man] 01/3/2011 09:43

wendsworth,do you think that a fall could be expected on or after results.Sorry for asking perhaps unanswerable questions.I would hate to be classed as a deramper which I certainly am not,but I have noticed with other shares the better the company and better the results the greater the fall,all be it followed by a steady move north again.

[wendsworth] 01/3/2011 09:27

Veg Man : We wish!

Bluebelle : Patience is a virtue and ultimately will be rewarded. Up 20p as I type. As commented earlier IMI moves quickly ! MY revised forecast is now 950 by this Friday.

[bluebelle] 01/3/2011 08:50

...although certainly showing some strength in the run up !

[bluebelle] 28/2/2011 14:49

Doubt it - they're due Thursday.

[veg man] 28/2/2011 10:40

Beginning to wonder if we will see £10.00 before results.

[veg man] 21/2/2011 14:21

Hello wendsworth I tend to think shares like coffee should be instant.

[wendsworth] 20/2/2011 20:41

Veg Man : Patience is a virtue and rarely disappoints.

[veg man] 18/2/2011 12:02

I hope it isn't something I have said.

[veg man] 18/2/2011 09:51

I think that IMI along with dare I say quiet a few stocks at the moment is been influenced by market sentiment which is in turn been affected by the situation in the middle east.

[bluebelle] 18/2/2011 09:28

Can't see why anyone who wants weekly action is interested in a FTSE 100 stock like this.

[beckwith] 18/2/2011 09:16

Seems to be treading water for a little too long, perhaps next week will be when it rises.

[wendsworth] 17/2/2011 13:44

nellie1973 : Good spot. Share price has consolidated last week's gain and is now looking for the next leg up. See the next level in the 950s.

When it does start to motor this share tends to move quickly.

I'm with Barcap and see IMI well north of 1000p.

[bluebelle] 16/2/2011 14:06

Very modest target IMHO !!!

[nellie1973] 16/2/2011 13:41

Broker upgrade

[wendsworth] 14/2/2011 09:01

Veg Man and Bluebelle : Consolidation in the 920s before the next push on to 950 is my call before the results . Definitely one 'to keep an eye on'.

[bluebelle] 14/2/2011 08:56

Sector paused for breath as a result of profit taking, but story still intact. Now on the move again.

[veg man] 13/2/2011 15:47

Thanks Wendsworth,I must agree I feel more relaxed about this company than most of the companies I have invested with in the passed.(Hindsight is a wonderful thing).
I think that it is a company I must stay with.
I was pleased to see the share move north once more after the Egyptian incidence.It would be nice to see the share now move steadily onward and upward.

[wendsworth] 12/2/2011 11:57

Veg Man : Results on 3rd March . I'm anticipating some positive 'window dressing from the Board after its recent elevation to the FTSE. Final Dividend forecast as being about 15pence. Goes ex with a month with payment in May. In addition the recent strong upgrades will push the share price on.

Go As Arthur Daley would say , 'This is going to be a nice little earner' over the next few months!

Sit back and enjoy.
