i bought into the stock 2 months ago approx,looks as if the the co i hope has found its feet and moving fwd.the growth would appear to come from the online deliveries,which s growing very fast,and hopefully there cost base has at last been cut to the bone , and on there sites for on going deliveries.
my best guess the share price should be over 30p currently,and should they make 4 eps ,we should see a mid 30s plus on re valuation of the share price .

Ditto--When it got back to 48p I could have got out evens, but I thought the corner had been turned.......

At least it pays a reasonable dividend.

I had enretained hopes of a bid from D S Smith, but nothing came of it and is not likely to do so now.

Shauney, whats your target Sp??.

Well for 2013 ....end of.

[shauney2] 18/12/2012 16:56

Thats a fair old chunk bernie.I take it thats not 5% of your portfolio -;)
You have a had some nice divi's over the years but the last 2 would have been a worrier.
Good luck for next year lets hope it comes good.Get the pension position sorted and it could be a good one.

ill settle for 37.4 thats my average share price on 185.659 holdings

Come a long way from the low of the year so we could get little selling soon.

A long way to go before we hit the highs of 46p in 2006.It got to 32p a couple of years ago so i guess thats the next target.

Would anyone be able to post the latest broker forecast or point my right direction to find them? Thanks

[cfro] 17/12/2012 20:27

Ticking up a wee bit i see. :-)

Pensions – please don't fall asleep – you probably don't read "The Actuary", nor
want to, but this week it highlights an article revealing that the 2011 Census
enumerated significantly fewer men over 80 or, even more so, over 90, and
women over 100 (and to a lesser extent, women over 80 or 90 and men over
100) than had been estimated based on the 2001 Census and subsequent
registration of deaths. The shortfall in over-90 men was more than 15%.
This implies that the reports of a surprising improvement in mortality, and a
consequent jump in the estimated liabilities and deficits of pension schemes may
be erroneous and due to errors in the 2001 Census

A fair bit of detail re supplying those brown resealable boxes like Amazon use with their logo on, better than other suppliers. PE falling to less than 7 and a 1.5p divi - Buy.

That's it in a nutshell.

[bernie37] 08/12/2012 18:19

what was said in the artical.

[cfro] 08/12/2012 17:56

my guess the seller is finished...could be the pru as they went off the radar after holding dropped below 3% at the begning of the year just a thought..sellers have been all over the stock for months,,and months..

[bluebelle] 06/12/2012 14:09

Just looked at placing a sb to reinforce my physical holding - the spread on IG is almost 12% !!!

[cs44] 06/12/2012 13:23

I would imagine that the seller is kifin group, they teamed up with kite packaging group to try and get changes in macf . They have been selling down their stake for months but they still have approx. 5 million to shift.
Management has done well recently and once the overhang disappears we should get a re-rating.

[cfro] 06/12/2012 13:22

Up and away. ;-)
