The ride should be fun from here, the odd pause would be nice all the way to 350p

[jerseyman1] 12/9/2017 10:33

Trading update due 21.9. at AGMMaybe new CEO being recruited?Or because shorts now down from 8% to 5.6%?Or N Korea threat of cyber warfare?Or bid?Take your pick but enjoy the ride

[a2584728] 12/9/2017 09:35

Update coming or even news on a suitor? Something is happening.

[a2584728] 11/9/2017 17:04

Looks promising

[masurenguy] 24/8/2017 11:19

Looks like a vote of confidence. They were previous holders here but had sold well over a year ago.

Per this RNS just out, looks like Schroders are a new major shareholder, going above 5% with 14.33m shares:

Early AGMs are intended to minimise the number of shareholders that are there. These people can be a nuisance and ask awkward questions. Perhaps if there were too many one of them might question resolution 5 - To reappoint KPMG LLP as auditor of the Company. These are the auditors who singularly failed year after year to spot such basics as invalid dividend declarations or holiday pay provision.

Last year was more civilised:

Notice is hereby given that NCC Group plc (‘Company̵7;) will hold its Annual General Meeting at Manchester Technology Centre, Oxford Road, Manchester, M1 7EF at 11am on 22 September 2016

Not sure what message they are sending out by having the AGM at 9am-to me suggests that they want it ver and done with as quickly as possible; for me good that it is in London

Government's survey reveals 68% of FT350 Companies are not trained to address Cyber Security issues, for details, see:

How strange -4 to +2 in the blink of an eye

[seans66] 11/8/2017 11:40

Be good if it can end the week over 200, then establish this as the new support level over the next few weeks.

[davwall] 09/8/2017 16:57

And exhale... Good result, and maybe a key test was passed today.

[davwall] 09/8/2017 15:48

Have been in since a few months before the crash, so am pleased - not to mention relieved - at the return to a more reasonable position. I bought a few more at near bottom which has helped get me back into the blue. I certainly have my fingers crossed for holding above 200 today, even if it is by the fingernails... A bit of a breather then it should be up and away, particularly given the very favourable winds blowing for these cyber security companies. The phones should be red hot!

[aylingd] 09/8/2017 12:19

Yes, looking at the chart there is a lot of resistance at 200p, hopefully we can get through.

The heady heights of 350p looks a long climb doesn't it. High growth area & with new management team appearing to have things now under control happy to hold long term.

D.

[a2584728] 08/8/2017 15:48

Your opinion is most welcome. I think if we close over 201p tonight we may go higher than 240

[boadicea] 08/8/2017 15:02

The price has been acting as if ~200p sellers have put a lid on it, i.e. plenty ready to sell for near 200p and patient buyers finding it unnecessary to pay more.
When eventually the sellers become outnumbered by ~200p buyers, the price should begin to act like it has a 200p floor.
Finally, when the buyers become impatient and give up hope of any more cheap (~200p) shares, it should be off to 240p or more.
As for timing - anybody's guess but I would suggest around October time.

As always of course, macro events could disrupt the whole market.

PS: Sorry I can't be quite as optimistic as A25...
...unless a bid comes along.

[a2584728] 04/8/2017 12:44

Added a few more yesterday

[masurenguy] 03/8/2017 08:29

Lets hope that your optimism bears fruit !

[a2584728] 03/8/2017 08:23

Once this breaks 200p we will fly to 300p imho

[mazarin] 26/7/2017 15:43

The threat posed to business by cyber attacks cannot be overstated. It is an essential and absolute duty of all senior executives to secure their systems and they now have legal duty to protect customer data.

[uapatel] 24/7/2017 18:41

Maybe Berenburg are helping those nice people holding shorts out. Always amazes me when you get such a difference in Analyst/Broker views. Still suppose that's what makes a market. Personally happier with the 265p call. (But then I'm a shareholder so would say that).

[jerseyman1] 24/7/2017 17:51

Cerrito.......Canaccord raise to Buy at 265p today. They were a sobering voice before and during the downward trend in share price and have covered the stock for a long time. Don't understand Berenburg position. Only negative I have seen since results last week. Perhaps they thought Stone was too mouthy too!!
