This business would be a useful add on for any of the supermarket chains. Maybe Tesco will notice that now?

I'd like to buy more but can't decide if we've seen the bottom or not. I think this stock could have a good 12 months ahead of it

On the first of December lots of mangers within the business will be selling there share options what will it do to the share price

Getting ready to buy in again...

Still going down

[gswredland] 25/10/2017 08:37

Still heavily shorted?

[2bluelynn] 20/10/2017 08:13

I think this will bounce off £1.60 I'm in then

50 day simple MA fits well here.

Combine that with the business performance itself... in a rational world you'd expect that if a few elements support each other, the more likely the outcome. If it goes back to around 200, then presumably one of the moving averages is going to be on a steep uptrend.

[thorpematt] 17/10/2017 21:08

Not the eaisest chart to establish a trend.

The horizontal red line I have drawn to designate a potential key resistance / support. Usually the previous resistance once cleared would support the new uptrend. If breached during the re-trace this would be a sell signal BUT with the blue downtrend also breached - this is often where a rally in the share price can be first detected.

I'd be treating this as having a higher probability of a price rise than a pobability of falling to 160. But there's not a lot in it.

Most recently the chart shows higher highs and higher lows..which = an uptrend.

Since there is more upside than down (IMO), I'd also go with the bulls.

Thanks Malcommm

The Kohlberg stake halving could be viewed as causing a sudden anomaly, so part of that sudden drop doesn't really count...

LONDON (Alliance News) - Old Mutual PLC raised its stake in Pets at Home Group PLC late last week, acquiring a further 1.09% stake in the pet goods retailer.

Having held a 12.01% stake in the London-listed firm prior to the transaction on Friday, Old Mutual now has a 14.10% holding through 70.5 million Pets at Home shares, according to a stock market announcement on Tuesday.

Based on Pets at Home's current issued share capital, Old Mutual upped its stake by around 10.5 million shares from 60.1 million beforehand. Based on the closing share price on the day of the transaction last Friday, the purchase would have been worth around GBP20.1 million, and value its current holding at about GBP135.4 million.

Based on trading on Tuesday, with Pets at Home trading down 1.0% at 185.75 pence, the value of Old Mutual's stake has fallen to about GBP131.0 million.

The purchase comes amid a recent sell-off by another major shareholder in Pets at Home. Kravis Roberts & Co sold off 61.0 million shares last Tuesday for around 195.08 pence for a total of GBP119.0 million, before selling off further shares through two other firms last Thursday.

Can anyone figure out whether all these RNS are increasing holdings or reducing? Seems to be a flurry of them Octover 16th and 17th

[staylow2] 17/10/2017 13:03

I'd say 185.

[2bluelynn] 17/10/2017 09:36

Any charty techi people out there ? Where's the support is it 1.80 or are we back to good support at 1.60 Thanks in advance

[ghido5] 11/10/2017 12:22

After the storm, looks like it's getting back...

A reminder of SCSW in September

Numis notes that the Vet practices over 10 years old are earning an average fee income of £185k. The broker says that with 700 vet locations ultimately being targeted, this suggests an incremental profit of £75m, not far short of their forecast for £85.2m (eps 13.6p) this year. Their forecast for next year is £90.5m (eps 14.4p) to drop the prospective PE to 12.3. With net debt starting to plunge from £192m to £156m last year (1.2x EBITDA), I think these shares are going to re-rate or chances are they will attract a bidder.

[staylow2] 10/10/2017 16:00

Must be other large holders selling also. I'd rather weight for a least a couple of higher highs!

[iandippie] 10/10/2017 10:31

Just topped up. Didn't think I'd get the chance to do so at this level :-)

[john09] 10/10/2017 10:09

I've just bought

[insideryou] 10/10/2017 10:03

I wonder if old Rob knew about KKR. Uncanny.

[iandippie] 10/10/2017 10:01

Buying opportunity ?

[runthejoules] 10/10/2017 08:49

Robbie Burns is, to some extent, a self-fulfilling prophecy. He had a workshop yesterday - wonder if any of his attendees have shorted this? If so he's a buyer again at 185-190p.

ITV was an easy play. Which I completely failed at.
