A director buy again this week.

[cockneyrebel] 15/6/2010 12:57

Sold out a week ago here as the shares started to slip ahead of the results. Took a small loss. Have noticed in the past the shareprice telegraphs the results to a certain extent - co must leak a bit of news each time imo. Look cheap to me still but suspect the tone of the results will make these tread water at best for a while. CR

The statement today suggests the 50% seller in the business was distressed too ! So they should have been able to negotiate a very low multiple especially as business not doing that well.

[gopher] 15/6/2010 10:50

I was surprised they bought the 50% stake in the Petrol forecourts business at £4.5ml given it only made 200k last year. There is just no trading in the shares,

seems there's a lot of disappointment about, with the results. Also insider trading in the run up by the looks of it...the last month or two could not be described as firm, or there being any trends in place, despite some expectations. Directors must be miffed though after their buys. Could be a buy now.

Nice trend in place, next leg anyone?

[cockneyrebel] 25/4/2010 11:08

Chart looking really nice here imo. With 7 weeks or so to the results it should be a very firm month or two imo. I'm expecting that big chunk of cash to have got even larger by the results. All that director buying is very encouraging too. CR

Breaking out from trading range

[shroder] 06/4/2010 14:21

I'm not worried about defence cuts - can any gov cut much on defence after the stick Brown has taken re cutting defence spending? Not when we are fighting a war imo - and Tories always have defence as a priority. I think the sector that worries me is mor PFI infrastructure, roads, brudges, highways and the like - look at the roads already - soft target imo.

[stevedeer] 01/4/2010 11:42

peeping around here myself... just a little concerned about the weighting towards defense and possible post-election defense cuts... chart looking nice though!

Looks like Lane Smith is a foreced seller imo Shroder and the Chairman has taken them off of him at mid. Bell has been buying loads lately it seems. Trading has been good thaty have said and net cash of £7m compared to the mkt cap is huge. Made a packet in these in 04-06 when small caps recovered their charm a year after the bottom. Time seems right again perhaps. CR

Roger Lane Smith (non exec) seems to have disposed of same amount?

[cockneyrebel] 01/4/2010 11:03

Just a director buy I think Shroder - no sell to go with it - looks like he cleared the mm's out at the end of the tax year :-) CR

[cockneyrebel] 01/4/2010 11:01

Just had a few Looks like that director just cleaned them out with that 53K buy :-) CR

[shroder] 01/4/2010 11:00

Looks liek he has purchased from another Director?

[cwa1] 01/4/2010 10:47
