lol that sort of contradicts your post from yesterday dogdog ;-)

It's because the FTSE is down this morning. MMs using it as an opportunity to shake out the weak!

[mbthedude] 02/11/2007 08:38

Hugely exagerated fall for 7,500 of sells

[dogdogman] 01/11/2007 21:51

The good thing is if you hold quality stock such as Vanco, on the down days there will be very limited damage (if any). Clearly undervalued and I'm happy to wait until £3.00 plus.

Good recovery on a poor day !

Some more background info on the Royal Vopak contract

[alansmith23] 31/10/2007 22:46

in on the shake yesterday, seems to be holding onto the recent gains. If they can push through resistance at 200 they could race. Worth a shot, stop 180.

sadone, I dont think these were sells at close. they were probably large trades which took place earlier in the day which were only recorded at the close. Delays are permitted for large trades. The good news is price seems to have held up today.

Nice 1/4m sell at close of play !!!

[dogdogman] 30/10/2007 12:39

Nice tree shake by the MMs!

>5p a day in recent week is good steady progress, it has only tested £2 intra day so far and closed within a whisker today, but is currently closing higher each day.

[london calling] 29/10/2007 16:47

seemed to be struggling to break through £2 today after a strong start. the price rise seems to be running out of steam a bit.

I think that the top rated analyst in the sector is the GS guy, Weeden. His target is about 270 or so, so probably that £3 is a reasonable target given uncertainty about growth estimates. These are conservative targets and I think it is worth more than £2 a share for sure

[realraffles] 29/10/2007 11:45

Interesting that you have focussed on the Charles Stanley analyst when the larger investment banks have much lower price targets. I am long of stock but slightly more cautious. I think 300p is probably about right at the moment - he's done the shareholders a favour.

[dogdogman] 29/10/2007 11:28

Ridiculously low PE. Dropped down from £5.00 for no substantial reason and should return to that level once the two remaining contracts are signed.

Onwards and upwards from here...

[mbthedude] 29/10/2007 09:00

Should break through 200p today

[jimelson] 28/10/2007 23:03

This share is a strong buy...long or short term...dont be fooled.

[holts] 28/10/2007 22:38

sadone, my thoughts are that if you look at Vanco and ask what has changed ? answer seemingly very little , the price was over £5 , it has come back down to £1.40, the visibility of earnings/cashflow has been constantly questioned, the two unsigned contracts crystalised the problem perhaps, in a simple world , ha ha, the signatures on the dotted line would bring us back to £5 , consequently I think the man from stanley is exploiting the situation somewhat. Now if he had said the credit crunch is likely to have a significant impact on Vanco and hence my target is £3 then I would not be thinking the same.

Toby tots - Thanks for the link - Interesting Guy

Robbie Burns known as the "frequent trader".

[sadone] 26/10/2007 13:55

Holts - Clarify whether you think he (Charles Stanley broker) has over estimated or under estimated.

Whats your target ?

Who's Robbie ???? Anyone ?

[holts] 26/10/2007 13:24

tiddler to watch : is that analyst from stanley real ? they have been shafted down from 5 quid with no real change in business , other than the two contracts that were slightly delayed , his target is nonsense.

"Vanco is very pleased to be able to provide Vopak with a state of
the art solution to connect all of its offices worldwide through one
unified infrastructure," said Ted Raffetto, CEO of Vanco US. "Our new
solution will not only offer secure, reliable and cost-effective
worldwide connectivity, but also valuable insight into all
communications costs. As well as this, Vopak will enjoy the
flexibility to deploy new technologies as and when they emerge."

That's unusual for Ted Raffetto to comment on announcements and this one in particular given that Royal Vopak are HQ'd in the Netherlands. I wonder if he'll take a more central role in the future?
