The RSI is now vg indeed. Was going to top up with some oil profits but today suggests a little more to go.

CR, you are so right about sellers being buyers if they weren't holders. I am Soooooooo guilty of having been like that in the past. I learnt a shed load the last 2 years, but the biggest 3 lessons I learnt were 1. Patience, 2. Patience, and 3. Patience!

If I had known that then, I would not have sold BSLA, MGNS, ERT, TRS, MEG, JSP, TPT, VEG, and more besides! Each and every one has been stellar since I sold!

It's also a lot less stressful, once you learn to deal with the patience thing, as there is a lot less portfolio churn. I just wish I'd bought MSI yesterday instead of last month. So perhaps it's time to buy more!

boredom roger. The other man's grass is greener when they see something else soaring they want to buy, on a high too.

Look at it this way, if the sellers were not holders in the first place and they saw this dip they would be looking to buy. Value goes out of the window when punters get bored.

I reckon 31K sold today v 20K bought roughly. 11K net sells, £15K worth all in little bits. Yesterday it was 10K v 4K = net 6K or £9K worth.

When theres net 15K buys these will probably be up 10p too. Many of those selling probably never knew what they bought so would they know what they are selling?

I am content to hold this in my SIPP, but I do not understand why people can not see the value and growth prospects for this company. This seems seriously undervalued.

Looking at the trades someone seemed determined to sell 10K and mashed the price - those trades create bargains imo.

If i wanted to sell 10K I'd sell into real strength on a tip, results or when there was lots of buying. Trouble is when the share price is rising punters don't want to sell! They are buyers then - funny world.

Sssshhh!!! I was rubbing my hands with glee - dammit! ;-)

[cockneyrebel] 16/3/2006 14:27

A chance missed by many I suspect - looks like a big bullish intraday reversal on it's way :-)

[cockneyrebel] 16/3/2006 12:34

best way to buy CC imo.

The bored sell as it slips but then stop selling and start buying as it rises and they get excited - look at CTG recently! All those that sold into the fall are now watching as it hits the old high.

cr, you say " buy on dips". i have [hd].

[cockneyrebel] 16/3/2006 10:53

ok marooned!


Some posstott trying to sell an oversize amount I bet and crippling the price - buggar all volume yesterday - might be the chance of the year at this level - Non-exec Roger Smith was buying 35K at 125.5p - doubt he was in for a quick scalp!

[njp] 16/3/2006 10:52

Time for another share buy back perhaps?

yep, PKW, SGI, COL all great examples where the market has been asleep as to the performance of a small cap then as soon as the market tumbles it - up 30% or more in a straight line.

CR

[xdavid] 15/3/2006 11:38

Agree, CR. For a recent example of what these 'no news' growth stocks do after bumbling along for a while, you just have to look at the recent SGI rise!

I've only been in MSI since 80p days but quite happy to continue doing so for forseeable. The fact they are still ISAble is superb and I can see few better targets for next months traunch.

Good to see you in IXF, BTW. Here's hoping :-)

[cockneyrebel] 15/3/2006 11:11

Still one of my bankers Onlyonestorm.

I've lived with this for two year - the trouble is most punters haven't. They haven't had their weekly fix and they get bored. The illiquidity means a small sell or two and it ticks down, increasing the boredom!

One tip, one decent buy and away it flies - trying to buy 2K in that sort of climate is impossible!

What also hasn't been noticed is stuff like this elsewhere have also rerated somewhat so these are even more undervalued imo. 18p eps this year and 22p eps next year minimum imo.

ISAable 50% growth or more on a PE of below 7 - can you imagine what the illiquid share is going to do when the punters pile in at some point? Before the results or just after I reckon these have 30%+ in them in a blink at some point - trying to buy when it's happend will be pretty impossible imo.

1.8p, 4.2p, 10.8p, (and 7.7p eps in H1 this year) eps growth year on year - hideously cheap imo

CR

[xdavid] 15/3/2006 10:59

Personally, I'm delighted with the 'performance' over last few months. I've got new ISA money waiting to be deposited come April so if all you disappointed folk could just sell in next couple of weeks and go chase the current 'hot' stock, that wil do me nicely, ta. ;-)

[onlyonestorm] 14/3/2006 23:11

Well I'm disappointed, this was one of my banker's ah well!! GROWL!!!!

[gswredland] 14/3/2006 22:33

been hanging around at these levels for ages...hope one of their big rises is coming soon!

[spinkydink] 14/3/2006 11:14

even longer!

[spinkydink] 05/3/2006 22:03

bought in on friday going long on this one

[cockneyrebel] 04/3/2006 11:09

idiot!


Anyway, for MSI take a look - a director upped his holding by 65% in October, buying 35K at 125.5p.
There was another director buy of 5K at the sam time.

More recently the co bought back 100K at 146p in December.

All added clues as to the directors thinking the current share price is cheap imo.

I'm going to enjoy watching this fly at some point at the punters try to pile in on the results or ahead of them.

18p eps this year, 22p+ next year imo.

PE 7 or so, ISAable, divi paying, little debt, 100% growth pa annum over several years - proof there is some screaming bargains out there imo.

I think a few of the regulars here used to have an interest in SGI which put in another damn good set of results today. I'm no longer in SGI myself (not ISAble) but they are another good example of companies which bore the hell out of holders apart from a few spectacular times a year. Just don't fall asleep and miss those days!
