Shearwater Share Discussion Threads

Any chance the company would be buying some more shares into treasury to cover staff share options ? I note from this years accounts that options were granted to staff at the time of flotation at £1.20. Company has grown since then but say 3000 staff at 1200 options each assuming they are still valid options- would it help if the company had a few million shares to hand to cover these ?

Could well get better too! ;-p

23% up here on last Friday - I guess that counts as a good week.

[cockneyrebel] 09/10/2009 17:05

yep, the size of those trades look like a fund imo.

CR, do you Institutional buying, possible % RNS next week?

[cockneyrebel] 09/10/2009 16:55

Rose throught the day to the close - more next week I suspect.

Must have been a big buyer trying to get filled throughout the day as there were very few small trades - can't think he's fully filled the way it rose into the close imo.

Just hit 1.30......and its still worth £10m less than HYC! Looking forward to a continued run to the trading update in 2 wks time! No reason why this cant return to Sept 08 level of £2+, especially with possible takeover activity!

[mattjos] 09/10/2009 16:36

looks like JD. Look forward to next week, assuming the markets are calm :-) GL all

[dasv] 09/10/2009 16:22

CR I bought these earlier this week.. what a chart ;)

[greenroom78] 09/10/2009 16:17

Mattjos, that will do me. I had set a target of 125p before year end. Revised that last week and looks like I may need to revise it again. Don't see any point in selling this until it gets closer to £2

[mattjos] 09/10/2009 16:14

close over 126 is what i'm looking for today

[greenroom78] 09/10/2009 14:59

Change that, pushing on to 130p would be even better.

[greenroom78] 09/10/2009 13:52

Confirming breakout now. Would be nice to hold this level into the weekend.

[chester] 09/10/2009 13:15

Looks a cracker.. 175p next resistance ?

[cockneyrebel] 09/10/2009 13:08

Still rising on huge volume - look at that lot today.

CR

[davebowler] 09/10/2009 12:37

I think there is a handle forming in a 'cup and handle'

[cockneyrebel] 09/10/2009 11:51

Up on big volume - seen those trades today?

CR

[mattjos] 09/10/2009 10:08

someone felt confident this morning ... 100k buy @ 120

[mattjos] 08/10/2009 16:28

just can't quite yet hold over 120 for the close but it's coming

[wormcatcher] 08/10/2009 12:13

Only just noticed that I got the divi the other day!

Wish I'd held on to the half I sold a few weeks back, but happy holding on to the other half for the long term.

[cockneyrebel] 08/10/2009 08:18

Carilion saying support services is the sector that's doing well for them today - must be good read across for SWG - especially as HYC saying things are good too.

CR

[indomie] 08/10/2009 00:41

SWG was trading at £2+ 12 months ago and £3+ 24 months ago so plenty of upside.....already topped up with some more!

[tdoghouse] 07/10/2009 21:27

Well, well, well... I actually went to school with Smit Berry. Not met him for a few years now. But I do remember him saying he was running a small cap tipsheet, but did not realise it was SCSW (probably had too much to drink and not paying enough attention)

[cockneyrebel] 07/10/2009 20:54

Yes tdoghouse.

Not a bad publication, you have to pick and choose their tips as they can go for stuff that's too high a rating for me. The low PE stuff I tend to be in before they tip them a lot of the time.

They do offer up a few pearls of knowledge about the companies tho, having spoken to the directors and such like.

[tdoghouse] 07/10/2009 20:34

CR. I don't subscribe to SCSW, is it the one edited by Smit Berry, based out of Croydon of all places?
