Looks cheap now at P/E of 11, compared to around 20 over recent years.

[philo124] 18/2/2014 08:10

Pretty Good.

[squash90] 17/2/2014 20:14

any thoughts on tomorrow ?

[phil140158] 11/2/2014 18:49

18th February it is then. Looks like a very p+ share price movement up to the results, with any luck the numbers will be good and we'll be on our way back to 750 - 800.

Sharescope says full year results 18Feb.

18th Feb is on their web site for final results to 31 Dec 2013 so not sure what 5th March is. Nothing on their site about that. Tripe

[phil140158] 10/2/2014 16:29

tripe - I have 5th March on my calendar? Can't remember where I got that from.

[tripehound1] 10/2/2014 14:30

18th Feb results ?

Really springing back into life now!

All above up today.

Interesting. I had been looking at oil explorers on the basis that oil is supposed to be in short supply however I dont think that the sector is flying away. I have had it suggested to me that there are simply too many of them. Is that possible ?

[pugugly] 09/2/2014 18:39

Hazelton:. Not closely - Keep an eye on them as oil sservices are a must have for oil production but partially cyclical and very difficult to call market bottom

[hazelton] 09/2/2014 18:04

PUGGLEY , I noticed the chart but it must sell to the oil explorers and their charts are similar , possibly a less than positive outlook. Thin dividend and fundamentals a bit out of kilter needing a bit more cash flow to support earnings. MBV not bargain yet but not too much debt. One to keep an eye on but it does not scream at me. It is not a sector that I have a good feel for but always willing to learn , do you follow these?

[phil140158] 24/1/2014 17:03

tripe - all red on my board!

[tripehound1] 24/1/2014 10:41

Sector hit today it seems.

[phil140158] 21/1/2014 09:08

We need a continuing flow of contract wins like this morning's prior to the results to get the share price moving upwards.

[tripehound1] 15/1/2014 17:25

Yes, what does this mean ? Is it good or is it bad ?

[phil140158] 15/1/2014 16:52

I wonder if Blackrock have finished selling and the rise this afternoon is the tick-up we have been waiting for?

[tripehound1] 13/1/2014 13:37

Well Phil I would hope so but at the moment we are going sideways which is not too encouraging. Lets hope the worse was announced last month and that they haven't hidden something for later publication.

[phil140158] 13/1/2014 11:42

tripe - the February statement you refer to is presumiably the results to 31st December 2013. They are usually out early March. I agree that they have bottomed out for now, as long as there is no more bad news before the results. I would imagine the share price would drift up before then if the market continues to strengthen?

[el chupacabra] 10/1/2014 17:27

hehe, good luck mate :)

[tripehound1] 10/1/2014 17:26

Bad moment, bad decision, greed, blinkers, human error, and all the rest !!!
