smerch. Firstly, i refer to one person as numb nuts, and that is nicky numb nuts. He is well known by this name by many until he changed his username.
Secondly, i joined in 1987 and passed my regi rep to be able to advise clients in 1988. It was well past bowler hats by then. If you have any idea of what goes on in a stockbrokers office, market making floor and even the institutions you would not have made such an naive comment.
You should read the posts a little bit closer if you want to make comment. I said it will be 30 years ago and i was a stockbroker for 12 years. Work it out if you can.

elcapital you are a stockbroker and you continually refer to people using the term "numb nuts". Sure you don't work in the back office? You don't strike me as being very professional considering the industry you work in.

I passed my exams a year later numb nuts.

This is now a shorters paradise. All the big boys are being alerted to it. Numb nuts you really are an albatross!

Thanks for the link to the Annual Report. Sounds like they are not breaching the AIM rule 26 then. Much appreciated. Still can't actually find it by just going into their web-site though. Not great for an internet business! Surely it shouldn't be that difficult.
Which section of the website are they in, so I can understand my error?

Its an easy to understand share, but end of the day they are just the same old estate agents telling the same old story, thats their job. Its money upfront for them, ie bonus BEFORE the actual sale, so they are going to tell a few porkies to get the commision.

Good recovery today, but weakness being probed now. Time to book profits if your up? If it drifts down and closes below 450p could be a sell signal.

Can see this back near 500 in no time, once the shorter realises their mistake and needs to cover in a hurry

topvestThe Annual Report 2016 is on their website and links to it have been posted up twice now, but one more time:hTTps://pbstaging.blob.core.windows.net/web-images/marketingWebsite/investors/media/press/Purplebricks-Group-plc-AR-2016.pdfDD

A lot of PIs have fallen in love with this share. That's a dangerous thing to do. Could get hurt.

Maybe you should just consider every new day a milestone

[prewar] 03/8/2017 10:23

Cool, is there some sort of countdown clock to the big anniversary anywhere?

[topvest] 03/8/2017 10:22

4 Sep 87 for me...bit of a milestone!

[elcapital2017] 03/8/2017 10:17

Just realised, I started, in accounts at first stockbrokers office on 5th August 1987. 30 years ago in 2 days time

The link is not to the Annual Report. It is missing from their web-site from what I can see. If anyone can see the 2016 annual report from Companies House on their web-site they are a better man than me.

Maybe time the NOMAD or company woke up!
If they have still not published their 2017 annual report that's very poor.

I have 30 years in the game, 12 as a stockbroker. Been round the block a few times!

Elcapital2017,

Fair enough, just don't get too hung up on certain positions if the sentiment changes in the market, I've done that before and it hurts until you hit your uncle point!

[discodave4] 03/8/2017 10:03

No probs rhomboid.For the record not holding yet, but it's clear on this board who is/isn't!.DD
