Who s had another nibble? Today's drop has to be retailers taking flight and panic selling. Hopefully ahead of next announcement this represents good value

This is not a covid stock, its about a fundamental demographic cultural switch towards workforce flexibility and giving people the option to WFH on a permanent, semi permanent or partial basis. Firms and employees now understand the benefits and realistic possibilities. Barclays spend around £9k per head per annum on facilities management at Canary Wharf. What do employees spend on childcare, commuting, a city centre flat vs countryside mansion etc etc. Today was a top up opportunity. All IMO. £65m revenues this year at Loopup and zero debt!

My entire portfolio (all tech & gold) shredded today. Have taken it as one for the old timers. No matter how much people want it to be the way it was, it never will be again. Very happy to pick up more at 173, complete over-reaction.

BBC News On-line states that the U.K. should receive 10 million doses of the vaccine by the end of 2020 , and that most experts think the vaccine will not be widely available until the middle of 2021 . Given that the BBC suggests , no doubt correctly , that the first in the queue to receive the vaccine would be nursing home and medical staff , together with the elderly , none of these groups forms the target market-place for Loop Up . In other words , the sort of people most likely to use Loop Up’s products would be the last to receive the vaccine . Like others here , I don’t see Loop Up as a mere Covid stock , although the Plague has increased the need for Loop Up’s products . From memory , I think the EPS for the latest six-month period ( NOT for a full year ) was 13.4p , suggesting for me that this share price fall has made the shares very cheap . However , do your own research .

I've not seen it as a WFH stock anyway - it's for high quality external, worldwide, calls from the *office* IMO. Agree, crazy fall. Bought more.

Agree with the posts on here. Massive over reaction which assumes life will return to how it was pre covid. WFH is here to stay IMV.

[johndoe23] 09/11/2020 14:43

Crazy drop. Home working will be here to stay for a while yet

[pratt2] 09/11/2020 14:42

I hold for the same reasons hence frustrated with this huge drop. In fact I m considering topping up now as it's 30% below my SP

[maddox] 09/11/2020 14:27

Hi Pratt, Not in the least bit concerned, WFH is going to carry on because it just makes sense, Covid has just accelerated it. I don't buy shares that are driven by short-term trends - I don't hold and wouldn't hold any Covid-test shares. The new Direct Routing opportunity is unaffected either way by Covid so not an issue.

[allstars001] 09/11/2020 13:46

I think it's a golden opportunity to top up

[valuehunter1] 09/11/2020 13:41

Total market over reaction here, flush the weak holders. Lets just let the numbers speak for themselves. Looking forward to the next update.

[arcadian] 09/11/2020 13:36

I understand that LOOP are not in the domestic market and their clientele are likely to be ,ore sticky so for me the panic is overdone and will correct as reality dawns.

[pratt2] 09/11/2020 13:23

What are your thoughts Maddox?

[arcadian] 09/11/2020 13:20

Maybe the talk of a vaccine makes some think that workers will return to work but home working has legs a bit like on line shopping.

[pratt2] 09/11/2020 13:06

Wonder if the move to ways of working is permanent enough to sustain higher levels of growth for LoopUp. Maybe not as high as Q2 2020, but in general. Got in at 220p and confused as to how much the fundamental investment rationale here has changed.

[arcadian] 09/11/2020 13:05

Any facts or news that would produce this or are they just taking out the stops to acquire shares for the next leg up?

[napoleon 14th] 09/11/2020 12:48

Out of here & sorry I didn't short ZOOM!

[adamb1978] 09/11/2020 12:42

Agree pleaty. I think this will come back - its an obvious sell-off. If you look at indices, SPX and the Dow are up 3.5%-4% whilst the Nasdaq is down. Airlines are going nuts - AA up 25%

[pleaty1] 09/11/2020 12:38

Seems a bit overdone

[basem1] 09/11/2020 12:37

Huge stroke of luck sold my 10000 at 215p

[pratt2] 09/11/2020 12:34

Wow. Clearly this was priced in for longer Covid! Didn't expect this big a risk

[basem1] 09/11/2020 12:32

Everyone too busy selling and buying to comment.
