tracking for 5 down sessions in a row. statistically that is extremely bullish.

indeed jw330, attempting to time the market can be both frustrating and painful unless you have a decent knowledge of TA and a decent strategy to go with it.

a majority of the time i am an investor, it leads to larger gains and less churn thus less commission, i use UPDATA platform , which is excellent for highlighting both short term and long term opportunities.

MCRO up over 100% since the November lows,

some are sitting on fat gains. May explain post results weakness.

[jw330] 15/2/2021 19:34

time in the market not timing the market. Learnt it the hard way

[gurunostradamus] 15/2/2021 19:19

50SMA is sitting around 425-430! That should be a significant support!

[stoxx67] 15/2/2021 18:43

i've had those days fella, the market does enjoy taking the p*ss !!

you can always fight back whilst capital liquidity remains, as you will know.

and of course, scotch heals the pain until the share price "vaccine" arrives.

Stoxx my take at the minute is a good load of 12 year old scotch...ive had a another big move against me today and the one I sold £110k of just went up 8.4% ffs

Ask me in the morning!

[stoxx67] 15/2/2021 18:22

well didnt expect this for MCRO markbelluk, such are markets !

i had expected backtesting of IHS then we'd be back on our way up, looks like a Fib retracement may well now be the order of the day for levels, but the IHS setup is toast.

whats your take?

[markbelluk] 15/2/2021 18:04

Check the chart of "MCRO mondays"..not had a decent one since Dec 7th

[scepticalinvestor] 15/2/2021 16:30

Fingers crossed for a bounce up tomorrow!

[cordwainer] 15/2/2021 15:09

Back in at 445.4p 12% below exit price.

[scepticalinvestor] 15/2/2021 15:07

So mkt cap now 20% down from the peak a week ago

[rochdae] 15/2/2021 14:37

Started to accumulate .. Down 100 points on the results. Yield getting bigger by the day.

[scepticalinvestor] 15/2/2021 12:59

Lol! Apologies meant 450

[cassini] 15/2/2021 12:36

SI,

350 seems a rather unlikely price...

[cordwainer] 15/2/2021 12:33

UK dollar - interesting idea - join single currency union of US ? :-)

[montyhedge] 15/2/2021 12:28

Strong pound, seems a headwind against UK dollar earners at the moment.

[cordwainer] 15/2/2021 12:22

^Dr, I agree with all 3, just a question of timing

[scepticalinvestor] 15/2/2021 11:54

well laides, time to add - just got 2k at a smidge under 350

[dr knowledge] 15/2/2021 10:17

Goldman Sachs update just out - they've cut their price target from 630-600 & maintain their "buy" rating. So GS twice the rating of Barclays & just under half that of Jeffries. Take you pick. ;-)

Positive read. For comparison sake in that space, look at the $55B valuation of “start-up” palantir which now has 1/3 revenue (though rapidly growing) and projected net loss for this year of $853M.

jw330....thanks for that link. A really interesting and uplifting read.

[jw330] 14/2/2021 16:33

for those who are asking about growth in Microfocus I think Vertica is their crown jewels and key to their success. The management is aware of this and hopefully the results will come in the months and years ahead.

Micro Focus - Substantial Progress but Still a Long Way to Go

- By Praveen Chawla


I wrote about Micro Focus International, PLC (LSE:MCRO) in a previous article entitled Deep Value in Micro Focus International on Sept. 11, 2020. The stock is up over 65% since then, which is a good start, but the company has still a long way to go to fully recover and return to revenue growth...
