There are sheep who follow him religiously but in market conditions like this the good go down with the bad. Personally will be looking to add come June in the run up to results.

[greenroom78] 17/5/2012 12:16

Not sure if this is a reaction to the Naked trader selling?

Getting tempted to add.

[gswredland] 15/5/2012 11:40

a belated thanks for date Mikey!

[greenroom78] 15/5/2012 10:03

CR - Agreed. Volume has been tiny on this drop back.

[cockneyrebel] 15/5/2012 09:58

look at the past rallies tho Greenroom, imo. Very illiquid - quite common for these to rise 20% or more in a week. I doubt trying to buy after a trading update/results will allow people to buy more than 500 to 1000 without a tick up.

4 weeks to go or so to results.

So it didn't break the way we hoped it would, but guess the wider world not helping sentiment. Results in 2-3 weeks will hopefully reverse things for us.

Well, last year saw the divi hiked to 6.5p from 4.5p, so perhaps this year we can hope for anything from 8.5p upwards to potentially even 9.5p or 10p depending on working capital needs etc.

[greenroom78] 02/5/2012 12:00

I'm wondering if we will see another dividend hike this year. We got a boost to the interim divi 6 months ago and with the regular director buying (after each statement) you would expect that they would be keen to see a return on their regular investments.

Excellent spot Mr T re post 1481. It does say "MSI's remotely operated 30mm guns", so I think you're right about this being another order.

Given the director buying at 294.5p less than 2 months ago - basically the same share price as today - I'm pretty confident that the forthcoming news flow will be pretty decent.

[cockneyrebel] 02/5/2012 06:32

:-)

Year end was on Friday so always the possibility of a trading update before then perhaps.

The first you will know about the results is when they appear at 9am some time around 8th June. Everything about msi is top secret and only available on a need-to-know basis. If they told you they would have to kill you afterwards ;-)

[gswredland] 02/5/2012 05:52

Do we know the date of results guys?

[mr. t] 01/5/2012 22:17

Has MSI sold another 12 guns? 2x30mm per ship on a six ship order to the Malaysian government?



There's a nice trend of positive news coming out of MSI recently.

[onlyonestorm] 01/5/2012 19:09

Still say £3.50!!

[cockneyrebel] 01/5/2012 16:17

Agree :-)

A nice breakout as the results approach imo.

[greenroom78] 01/5/2012 15:31

Now I'm no chartist but I'd say it looks primed and ready to pop.

[rivaldo] 01/5/2012 11:30

Today's Times reports that the Convoy Escort Programme. which is raising money to provide armed patrol boats to protect against Somali and other pirates, is now likely to go ahead after a $30m fundraising, with another $40m to come for a further 11 vessels.

I'd have thought these boats would be ideal for MSI's lightweight Seahawk gun systems.

[rivaldo] 17/4/2012 10:33

A £6k buy has woken the share price up. Let the bells ring out :o))

[rivaldo] 03/4/2012 09:51

I assume the 5k at 295p today was a Buy leading to the price rise.

[mikepompeyfan] 02/4/2012 16:57

Just goes to prove you can't trust the trades detail page here. The 1000 shares at 12.57 today was definitely a buy and not a sale.

[rivaldo] 28/3/2012 08:04

Nice move this morning.

The director buying at 294.5p showed the way to the results - hopefully the market are following.

[mikepompeyfan] 27/3/2012 07:40

Results were 9th June last year. I suppose we can expect it to appear on the news feed at some random time and not 7am like other companies. This is the only share l've got where you have to keep checking during the day rather than rely on it appearing first thing ;-)

[darlocst] 27/3/2012 07:32

Thats just a guess and is incorrect, the Q3 update was out last month.

The next announcement should be in early to mid June, FY results, which given recent statements, director buying and underlying fundamentals I expect to be very good.
