1925p does seems on the cards.High p.e shares always get hit hardest when the market corrects.

Bought some today for trading pot.

[montyhedge] 05/2/2018 11:48

I see 1925p on its way if the Dow and FTSE fall another 10% and I think it will.

[montyhedge] 05/2/2018 09:04

When risk off, the high p.e stocks get hit hardest.

[ilovefrogs] 26/1/2018 14:14

Ha ha ha! Well the stock won't be going to 18.50 (a PE of 9x this years' earnings). So, the question is how long before Monty-Div changes his mind again, and buys back in at a a much higher price than today? Before Easter I reckon.......

Good to see this moving north slowly. Looks like a classic double-bottom on the chart. Onwards and upwards!

[montyhedge] 18/1/2018 15:10

Yes I sold, I will get these back at 1850p, p.e still to high, revenue falling.
Can they get those margins up, jury is out.

[losses] 18/1/2018 14:47

What you like monty... change like the wind... You probably sold so now want in cheaper.. I think this will be around 2500 in coming months..

[montyhedge] 18/1/2018 12:10

I think the right price for the risk involved is 1925p. Can they increase margins is the big question. The pound also for me a factor.

[montyhedge] 18/1/2018 10:04

We don't want the pound to strengthen anymore.

[woodhawk] 17/1/2018 18:32

It's more like 500p actually. If there's circa 25p off at the open - then looks like the double-bottom will be in place. Onwards and upwards!! I expect by the time the divi is paid this will be nicely north of 2300p.

[montyhedge] 17/1/2018 16:48

Supposed to read the pound stronger not helping.

[montyhedge] 17/1/2018 16:10

Also higher £ not helping.

[montyhedge] 17/1/2018 15:57

Don't mind he gets these shares, but directors have to deliver results, can they get margins up, jury is out. If not shares will be hammered. High p.e.

[ringer12] 17/1/2018 15:37

At least Mr Kennedy won't be too worried. I see he has been awarded 596275 share
options at nil price which at say 2200p would be worth over £13,000,000. I wonder how many more Directors are eligible for this sort of incentive!

But he did but 4437 shares!

[montyhedge] 17/1/2018 15:04

After the divi perhaps that's when the bears will come in. In theory should drop by the div amount tomorrow.

[montyhedge] 17/1/2018 14:46

Ex Div tomorrow, wow hedges shorting before xd perhaps.

[woodhawk] 17/1/2018 13:32

Oh that must be it then ;-)

[orange1] 17/1/2018 13:25

The fact that a share price is going down doesn´t mean to say that the shares are being shorted. It simply means that at that moment there are more sellers than buyers, for whatever reason. The price has been weak for days now.

[woodhawk] 17/1/2018 12:53

Clearly being shorted mercilessly the day before ex-D. Shorts will have to cough up.

[losses] 17/1/2018 10:22

Have we gone ex div today?

[kuss1] 12/1/2018 12:55

Still in this. Cheap as chips for a tech co. Just that the city doesn't understand what's going on....

[phillis] 12/1/2018 12:44

dont encourage more blather from you know who

what more is there to say?
we need to await management's efforts in taking cost out of the business
(as we await the dividend!)

[woodhawk] 12/1/2018 10:25

Nice recovery again this morning. Can't believe the lack of comment here. Ex-divi next week for 25p.
