Hmmm seems negative on a first glance, what are your thoughts? That this selling has kept the price in check up until now?

[ruffjp] 26/10/2006 09:39

so whats with the institutional holders going below the notifiable limit, something is brewing.

[machoolahan] 25/10/2006 18:51

Hmmm thought we had a breakout brewing there. Bunged a few more in right at the end, but it's going to have to make its mind up!

[machoolahan] 24/10/2006 11:59

What's that based on churchtower? Any technical indicators pointing there?

Could go anywhere if that Boeing banter is resurrected - no idea whether to give that any real weight though.

[churchtower] 24/10/2006 11:57

mac - I will pencil in a target area of 360/370 if this continuing breakout above 320 is maintained. Regards CH.

Cheers all! In contravention of the usual sentiments, let's hope he grows up fast....

[bigbertie] 24/10/2006 11:47

interesting - anyone have any insights? I can't believe it was the announcement of the Lehman holding that set this off!

[churchtower] 24/10/2006 11:46

mac - congratulations a 5lb 5oz baby boy. CH.

Yay! About berluddy time :)

Chart looks quite pregnant today....

Independent on 21/10/06 - Ralph Brook-Fox of Resolution Asset Management is more optimistic than many of his peers, about short to medium term prospects for the UK market. One of Brook-Fox's favourites is aerospace and engineering group Meggitt, which is benefiting from the boom in international air travel.

PS. explorer88 if it is to be achieved merely by EPS growth then I too would love to identify such a Company. Sadly I have no suggestions but like others would love to know which one you have found and on what basis you believe this can be achieved. Regards CH.

Hi Max and churchtower

We haven't spoken for a while ... how are you both?

i'm looking to invest in three small market cap. stocks (preferably under £10m) which have the potential to increase their market cap. tenfold in three years. i've identified one company, and am looking for two more - do you have any suggestions? Thanks ...

Max - thanks for the visually excellent chart and your comments. I am in total agreement with your conclusions. CH.

[machoolahan] 12/10/2006 11:48

Topped up at 320.5p

[machoolahan] 09/10/2006 23:23

that's what I thought, will add if it holds > 320p as a result :)

[ruffjp] 09/10/2006 23:07

nice rising wedge developing

[machoolahan] 06/10/2006 16:40

Got some in at 315p

We get news from Cobham at work due to staff moving from us to them and vice versa. I've only just noticed earlier comment on this thread and can confirm that the Meggitt take-over rumour was doing the rounds back at the beginning of September.

[bigbertie] 04/10/2006 10:09

more bid talk, a bit more plausible this time. Boeing and Finmeccia both apparently considering acquisitions - UK analysts think Ultra Electronics and Meggitt are both of possible interest.

[bigbertie] 16/9/2006 21:37

machoolahan (where did you get that name??) there was a note on Charles Stanley website - the source was [e-mail]
(you can get to the Dow Jones site easily via Google)

[machoolahan] 15/9/2006 00:17

Interesting stuff - where did this rumour come from? Anything linkable?

[bigbertie] 14/9/2006 22:36

sudden jump in late afternoon - some talk of a bid from Cobham. Analysts apparently sceptical of a bid from Cobham, but think Meggitt a possible bid target for someone at 400p plus. That'll do me. I'm holding anyway.
