Yup Riv,

it won't scale the high of RMG, but a nice 20% would see me nicely.

It took few days then Royal was above £5+

Target short term is 400p, but think one to keep for long term, potential as second largest after Disney

[rivaldo] 08/11/2013 08:52

Yep, great start. Given the heavy oversubscription for shares, the need for trackers to buy in etc, I'm sorely tempted to run with these at least for a few days. Could perhaps see 400p given that many retail investors won't be able to deal/stag for a while?

Enjoying the early ride - excuse the pun. Anybody any idea where the share price will settle today???

[davidtil] 08/11/2013 08:30

I love turkey shoots !

bang bang

[wylecoyote] 08/11/2013 08:30

Well,

I tried to subscribe to some yesterday, selftrade haven't told me if I got a holding or not. So if the share price is performing well, great... If not, what a shame. I have to admit that I didn't realise trading would begin today. I was only looking for the EPIC code. I though it commenced on 12/11/2013?

Madame Tussauds owner Merlin Entertainments priced its London stock market listing at 315p per share today, valuing the private equity-backed company at £3.2 billion.


Merlin had originally set its range of 280p to 330p for the shares.

The company, which closed the offering early due to strong demand, said 87.5pc of the sale had gone to institutional investors such as pension funds, while individual retail investors had received 12.5pc

I bailed out !

what is the next target in this turkey shoot ???

[ricky46] 08/11/2013 08:23

why they stabilising it..... should of let it go like rail mail

[broadwood] 08/11/2013 08:20

App scaled down by roughly a third. Not complaining - obviously priced to go.

[marbles1234] 08/11/2013 08:18

3.49 going well, trackers will need to buy this one so the share price should stay strong

[hansrod] 08/11/2013 08:13

ive managed to add to my monitor

[marbles1234] 08/11/2013 08:12

yes MERL just type it in here it will come up, but no name ?? odd

[hansrod] 08/11/2013 08:11

MERL is the ticker I believe.

[ricky46] 08/11/2013 08:10

got data only way is up for these

[leadersoffice] 08/11/2013 08:10

I've been looking for the epic code, anyone have it?It's conditional dealing, it might not be on their system till Monday.

[orange1] 08/11/2013 08:08

333-5 on IG

[ricky46] 08/11/2013 08:08

Why is there no data on advfn

[leadersoffice] 08/11/2013 08:05

Morning and off we go

[spracklin] 08/11/2013 08:05

thanks for the thread LG.

modest premium, 5% so far. Still, why purchase a profitable company like MERL when you can buy overpriced shares in an unprofitable dotcom like Tw@tter?

[ricky46] 08/11/2013 08:05

Got to go up thou with that demand.....

[pottsypotts] 08/11/2013 07:53

Could have swings as much as a ride at Alton towers

[spob] 08/11/2013 07:51

if you had applied for 10 grand you will get 5950 pounds

nowhere near the demand for rmg

still should pop on the open

no position here for me though

[lord gnome] 08/11/2013 07:45

Morning all. Doesn't look to be a great day in the markets to be floating your company, but let's hope that Merlin gets away smartly. GLA

[lord gnome] 08/11/2013 07:44

Here it is your all-new Merlin Entertainments thread. I don't plan to be here for long. Enjoy!
