Has everyone fallen asleep, or just written off their 'investment'?

[mallorca 9] 19/7/2019 08:44

Dear oh dear oh dear,

surely nobody is continuing to hold this !

It's still a good short at 4p (If they would allow new shorts).

Dilution details will take this to 1p … possibly even worse.

[hammopj] 19/7/2019 08:39

Oh dear. Bye 4p...

Fosum results out and very good results

No news is bad news?

Hi bud, change that, Yes. :)

Yep, you are indeed an ADVFN junkie and pine after the main man!

[chinese investor] 18/7/2019 20:24

Thanks Jim !

[belt n braces] 18/7/2019 19:47

SO glad you sold at a decent profit, really proud of you, you are a star.

[chinese investor] 18/7/2019 19:22

Belt,
I sold completely a couple of days ago with a decent profit !
How's Zarim ?

nightly report: short tracker now up to 8.7%

hey CI, maybe you should go back and re-do that post (again), but this time put it back to your original gem that you had sold out for a small profit? hope you have not put on the drars on this POS?

Thanks for your opinion.. I very regrettably, I agree ... On the TCG comments

[mallorca 9] 18/7/2019 17:11

I only use spread betting for 'shorting'.

To do this full time you have to be able to make money in a falling market too.
I sometimes short indices when they appear to be very high (I currently have a short spread bet on the DOW Jones). This can act as a hedge against falls in shares I own should the market tank.

Mrs Mallorca has just arrived home (with new shoes). Off out now with our dogs.

Oh dear .

[mallorca 9] 18/7/2019 17:04

If you haven't spread bet before then don't !
Stick to buying and owning shares. Its much less stressful.

Once bitten

My view is that the Co will remain Public and thus the shares will continue to trade in the open market. Even after dilution though TCG may still struggle. They will be a minority shareholder in the new Co, although they will still have the airline business.
That's just my view though.

I wouldn't invest here . I think that those who do are emotionally involved.
It's just the wrong sector.

I like European Tech Co's involved in Cloud and Digital Marketing.
I'd get what I can from here and stick a spread bet (long) on something like S4 Capital (Martin Sorrels new Company)or Future plc.
Two others that I particularly like are Inland Homes and Learning Technologies.
I hold both of these.

[bagpuss62] 18/7/2019 16:53

Last one was meant for Mallorca

[bagpuss62] 18/7/2019 16:52

Thanks for the post .. I'm hope I can recoup from 'refloat' ... or simply leave well alone .. Looking for a solid investment... but aren't we all :)

[once bitten1] 18/7/2019 16:49

Sadly true

[once bitten1] 18/7/2019 16:47

Mallorca ..On the Subject of Baggs loss .. what's your take on the likelihood of the shares being reissued / re-traded as you can no doubt gather, I'm no technician...But it's an interesting thought for many

[1224saj] 18/7/2019 15:54

Thanks Eku, yes I have been speaking to people today regarding the AOA. I'm sure they will have covered their bases, as the suggestion that Fosun will try and take this private is high on the various BB today

Mpm revenue £60m per year 0.95 to buy get in

[ekuuleus] 18/7/2019 15:32

122, regarding forcibly buying shares, it depends on what is in TCG's articles of incorporation. Typically, it only requires 90% agreement.

[mallorca 9] 18/7/2019 14:51

trading is also right above … they could choose to take this back into private ownership.
