I'm writing that one down to use sometime in the future

Be under no illusion. The rise in the share price is entirely down to the presentation to analysts. It's not the price that has risen but the penny that has dropped

[mad foetus] 05/9/2017 15:22

More money traded on IQE today than LLOY. There will be a lot of people looking at IQE hard for the first time today.

Perhaps a large buy order in the background from shorter hoping to close.

[mad foetus] 05/9/2017 15:19

Chartwise it looks like blue sky. 150 may prove a bit of resistance but likely will be blown away if not before iP8 launch then shortly after. Expect a slew of articles about the end of silicon. Constant news could keep the share price motoring for some time

[allstar4eva] 05/9/2017 15:17

They don't wait. They are asleep due to the time difference! In addition some won't have even heard of iqe until they look at results or hear reports etc.

Well, whatever, we're seeing a very considerable turnaround from this morning's low. Apparently considerably more selling than buying, which suggests little in the way of short closing yet. MMS bidding for stock ready for when they do, perhaps?

Do you really think pi's in the States wait till the instant the US bell rings before they buy/sell UK stocks?

Think about it, some chap gets up at 7am, gets ready to go to work, perhaps checks his stocks at 8am US time.

"Hmmm... I see IQE is doing ok over in the UK, I could place my trade now, but no, I must wait until the US market opens before I can do anything"

[multibagger] 05/9/2017 15:07

Looks like we may hit 150p+ today at this rate :)

[allstar4eva] 05/9/2017 15:05

You really think most pi's are gonna do that? Most clearly do not...

[soupdragon55] 05/9/2017 15:02

On a technical trade yes, you'd place an order to buy at a price you think the share price is breaking out from, in the same way you'd place a stop for if it drops to a point you want out regardless of results.

[allstar4eva] 05/9/2017 14:59

Without seeing results?

[soupdragon55] 05/9/2017 14:58

allstar, ever heard of placing an order to fill?

[grabster] 05/9/2017 14:56

aiming - the only reason I can think of is that some US buyers might need to sell summat they own over there when their market opens, to free up the cash needed to buy here? Sounds unlikely.

[allstar4eva] 05/9/2017 14:55

Yep if they want to wake up at 2 or 3 am...

[soupdragon55] 05/9/2017 14:51

Exactly aiming. No significance in 2.30pm. Buyers outside of the UK will operate as and when the price meets their requirements.

[aimingupward2] 05/9/2017 14:45

Why would Americans,who wish to buy into IQE, have to wait until their market opens at 2.30? Can they not buy on the London market while that is open? Or are we supposing that they won't be awake and out of bed before 2.30 GMT?

[geheimnis2] 05/9/2017 14:36

could hit £2 over the next month?

[sailastra] 05/9/2017 14:35

IRMA has been upgraded to a category 5 tropical storm.....IQE seems to be heading the same way...Outstanding, people obviously liked the presentation.

[jimboyce] 05/9/2017 14:32

USA markets now open for business.

[someuwin] 05/9/2017 14:29

Just one week to go until iPhone 8 launch.

[mad foetus] 05/9/2017 14:07

Any shorters must be feeling nervous right now. Not clear what can stop the juggernaut right now

[gepetto] 05/9/2017 14:06

So slide 7: 'Financial dashboard', the EPS estimate of 3.2 FY is the old one then? Before the 'materially exceeding market expectation'?
If not it would be disappointing...

[runthejoules] 05/9/2017 14:06

If they want to get some US investors on board they're going to have to improve the quality of the stock photos on their presentations...
