Anybody know if there will be a trading update anytime soon?

Back in this week - 400/401 several trades as volume not generally available
December volatility low so I have reduced my model 2016 FY turnover by $5m
But becoming clearer that Regulators concerned about retail customers incurring significant losses above their account deposits. Less concerned where stops guaranteed and accounts can't go negative
See IG statement this week (Note IG recently copied PLUS in this respect!)


Volatility in 2017 could be interesting with Trump at the helm!

Odey has just over 23% at the moment, and Morgan Stanley have greatly reduced their holding. I think as PLUS moves up off the recent dip an institution is adding here. Expect RNS soon.

Does he care that much. He has made his money, pretty sire he wont be putting it back in!

Odey isn't having much fun atm. Whilst I have a position in Plus, I have to say it makes me smile slightly that Odey isn't having fun considering how arrogant he was after "calling" brexit and making £200m on it..

“This is a good day for me. I was brave. I had a lot of clients who were angry with me but they won’t be quite so angry this morning. Life is not about being un-brave at the right time. We in the City have certain skills.”

Lol, bet he's not adopting such a tone these days

For those taking solace in the Odey holding....they dont always get it right.

from today's Times:

'Crispin Odey has begun to shed staff after the billionaire hedge fund manager’s investments suffered the worst year in his firm’s history, losing nearly half their value as bets on a market collapse failed to come good. He said that Odey Asset Management had made redundancies after a torrid 12 months in which its main investment fund fell by 49.5 per cent.'

Don't think there will be any further divis till May.

Historically Plus has tended to pay an interim divi in Oct/ Nov and a final with a possible special in May. It paid its last interim on 17 Nov 2016. In late 2015/ early 2016 its sequence was somewhat out of phase due to its regulatory issues and it deferred its interim till Feb 2016.

Can't find any details on the January/February dividend.
Perhaps there won't be one this year & we have to wait till March.
Any views please?

[thevaluehunter] 04/1/2017 15:30

Can someone remind me what their dividend policy is and an forecast for the march 16 % please

[lampran] 04/1/2017 08:12

should pass £4 this week...

[lampran] 03/1/2017 23:23

looks good but a bit risky for me

[lydnem] 03/1/2017 19:03

Ive never liked it, and still dont

[thevaluehunter] 03/1/2017 16:22

I'm in too and way too cheap to ignore. I think the march final and special dividend could be well over 10%!

[pbutterworth1] 03/1/2017 09:07

Morning peoples. Happy New Year. Rode the PLUS rollercoaster for 18 months until a year ago. 2017 dawns and as of today, I am back in. Sorry to be simplistic. but PLUS just looks a a little too cheap and downside over done in IMHO. GL DYOR Philip

[lydnem] 23/12/2016 09:45

Only 50% down from its recent high

[albanyvillas] 23/12/2016 08:17

looks like good for a bounce to 500p

[rubberbullets] 22/12/2016 12:09

heading higher and higher

Its a miracle , Its a living thing, its a beautiful thing to see

[ggbarabajagal] 21/12/2016 08:39

With market scaling new highs punters will be making much profit for Plus and IGG

[rackers1] 21/12/2016 08:20
