Ex dividend today.

V. nice weekly candle. No doubt helped by the IC / Simon Thompson today, but his recommendation here is hardly new.

Year end 31st March of course, so might be a while before a trading update.

Strong post-Christmas price action though, so not out of the question given the seasonal importance of this period for jewellery retail & rising gold price.

Looking good here regardless......

Looking good so far RP19 & bodes well for the forthcoming TU :)

A close above the psychological £2 level would be a nice end to the week.

Sentiment might have improved for this sector since the release of a positive trading update from HAT this week,will be interesting to read the next update from RFX. Hard to know when to expect the next update, perhaps by the end of February?

Gold is now over $1330 which will help, and HAT reported that Pawnbroking, loans, retail jewellery and FX were all performing strongly, so bodes well to a read across to RFX.

I did buy an initial position in HAT this week, but RFX is my largest holding in the portfolio.

Ditto and actually that's not really a long time to have been holding for that gain - I shall have to be more patient.

One of my friends has some sort of calculation of sell points based on his % gain and the p/e and some other growth measures. Seems sensible as even the best stocks have quite drastic drops now and again. imo a drop when a stock is on a p/e of 40 is different from when it is on 15.

Actually when the story / rating remains the same and there's a couple of years of uptrend, it may be that any 15%+ drop is worth buying.

Sometime I'll have to look back and see what would have happened if...

[spob] 12/1/2018 13:02

Yes i agree, never sell a rising stock


If you have made a +100% gain, then set a profit protection stop loss at +70% or +80%

and then keep re-adjusting your exit point if the stock keeps making new highs


if your gain becomes say +200% then your exit point would move up to around +160%


simple

the trend is your freind


i'm up around 110% here

Excellent stuff, not far from doubling my money here.

Not interested in doing any sort of top slicing for a good while yet, this has long way to run yet.

Good to see you here Cheshire Man, you are a lucky charm for me, when we invest in the same company. think you should check (WHR) out as well.

[yump] 12/1/2018 12:46

They say slowly, slowly catchee monkey - probably about time for it to appear.

[cheshire man] 12/1/2018 12:05

£2 on the bid now , lovely end to the week here :-)

[yump] 08/1/2018 23:33

Well if the timing isn't right for having bought into this sort of business in 2017 (and now isn't too late either imo), given the apparent pressures on consumers and some retail woes which don't look like they will go away anytime soon, then I'd be very surprised.

[ronwilkes123] 08/1/2018 13:37

With dividend so close not worth selling at all, it all helps further rises imo

[manrobert] 08/1/2018 13:07

oh sorry I joined them on line today and must have picked up on last update.

[john09] 08/1/2018 12:52

New highs on the way. There wasn’t a tip update in sharewatch wrt Ramsdens this weekend man Robert

[manrobert] 08/1/2018 12:30

I was lucky I bt 6000 this morning based on a tips update by sharewatch

[pillion] 08/1/2018 12:25

Good find Rob

[basem1] 08/1/2018 12:12

£2.10 is a tad conservative IMO. It wouldn't be expensive at £3 given the cashpile.

[gswredland] 08/1/2018 12:12

Thanks manrobert
Looks like it is breaking out

[manrobert] 08/1/2018 12:09

simon Thompson updated today and increased his target price to 210

[danpollard] 08/1/2018 07:46

Trading above expectations at HAT. Should read across to RFX.
