Offloaded today. 25 percent gain plus the dividend... Good luck all holders

[zcaprd7] 07/11/2013 17:37

So with that 4.1p we'd be near a new high after today. Not bad...

[churchtower] 07/11/2013 15:15

XD as from yesterday.

[zcaprd7] 07/11/2013 09:08

Are we ex dividend now?

[churchtower] 07/11/2013 07:45

This morning Liberum starts with a BUY rating and target price of 290p. CH.

Elchup - Looking at the moment as if you were absolutely right. Weak holders forfeiting their dividend to the benefit of the MM's. CH.

[el chupacabra] 05/11/2013 16:42

pre-dividend tree shake ?

[craigy] 05/11/2013 16:30

Rsi overbought.

[churchtower] 05/11/2013 07:56

EX DIVD tomorrow 4.1p CH.

Three year high. Glad I got some at the 1 year low. Very odd change and sentiment?

[zcaprd7] 30/10/2013 00:03

Good news from Apple?

c2i, The comment on margin improvement was optimistic , overall I thought the statement was mildly positive , perhaps the conference call was a little more bullish.

edit. The conference call highlighted the rising monthly sales trend and that q4 will have the full effect of new product launches . Business with Samsung is at a high and new business is being won in asia . Figures show through in wireless systems earlier due to shorter lead times , results will show through in other divisions next year. Not chasing immediate return , trying to build a better business . Looking at m&a but seeking best fit.
Again, mildly positive.

Laird up 8% and continue to climb after todays statement

Should see a number of upgrades-I hope.

[churchtower] 23/10/2013 09:04

Decent results, recognised by the market, with growth prospects coupled to an assured 12p dividend this year make this an attractive proposition. Happy to hold and buy further on any weakness. Only hope no T/O approaches are made. CH.

David Lockwood, Chief Executive of Laird, said:

"We have returned to year on year growth in the third quarter. Growth in Performance Materials has led to revenue in the third quarter being 15% higher than the second quarter and with Performance Materials revenues up 26%.

According to Investors Chronicle a couple of weeks ago this company more profitable over next 6 months and said buy,which I did,small holding.

[zcaprd7] 23/10/2013 08:44

Why not? Steady growth and nice dividend...

[addison17] 23/10/2013 08:41

Well, not bad and share price is up, which is always a good sign. I just think that we all will never make a fortune from this company.

[contrarian2investor] 22/10/2013 20:27

Good luck everyone for tomorrow.
Here's hoping that fortune favours the brave.

[churchtower] 20/10/2013 18:32

Wednesday will direct which way this is going to go. Hopefully the Investor Chronicle's comments, when they recommended Buy in August will be accurate -
" The shares look cheap given that gathering momentum makes a dramatic recovery in the second half look likely." CH.

The interim presentation says:

Certain level of revenue is underpinned in H2 by stocking of supply chain
Variables for H2 uplift are end user demand and launch timing

It sounds quite important as to when the PS4 revenues hit, slides also say:

Customer:
A leading gaming console maker (already known to one of Laird businesses)
Laird cross-marketed other business units to provide more than one of their solutions

Outcome:
EMI, Thermal & SIP content will be sold
Design win could increase revenue from this customer multiple times

Continued to add yesterday and this morning hoping for a confident statement on the 23rd. Welcome back C2I hope you will not regret your decision. CH.

[contrarian2investor] 16/10/2013 15:20

It remains very noisy out "there". US indecision continues---will "they" sort themselves out before midnight?. I really don't know!

However today I have chosen to buy back all of my LRD holdings for just under £2.21p. I have placed them with a tight-stop loss of £2.10p ahead of their results. Am I brave or foolish? We won't have long to wait to fiind out! GLA c2i
