Wipo sold about 1/4 of holding at £3.80 but still hold a fair amount. Think if markets remain stable will go back up so may buy back same amount but want to hold some cash if markets show signs of jitters. Still think there may be some problems due to Greece and our own elections coming up.

Hi Rabbar, Well done ALNT, I hope you got out at better price than me, I got caught in bear trap or when JP Morgan selling, I would not chase now, would buy lower down, good luck.

Hi Wipo, thanks totally missed the RNS. Sold some ALNT prior to Greece elections to hold some cash. Typically though result has hardly affected market (yet). Might buy back if price falls below 350.

I sold a 1000 odd at 441.7p trimming my portfolio, would rather scalp a few points here and there and sit on mostly cash. Just a bit nervous with overnight positions

Hello Rabbar I am still watching mgam, I do prefer vsvs though. I will do some research and get back to you.

I think, like a lot of people, I must have missed the RNS about the proposed merger falling through which was mentioned 1st December. Anyone know anything about the other company Morgan Advanced Materials?

Does anyone know any reason for fall today? I don't have flash headline access!

Interim Management statement looks ok, However I don't like the use of the 'challenging' word being used a few times. Just a hold for me atm not adding.

Codek - I would not take much notice of broker notes. Ubs last month upgraded the stock obviously to suck in buyers to allow their clients to sell.

Seems analyst confidence is falling too, also on no news. However, still implies an 11% upside from here hxxp://sleekmoney.com/investec-trims-vesuvius-plc-target-price-to-gbx-450-vsvs/36654/

Broke 410p now. I am breaking my rules not selling here. Stop loss shifted to 399p

[wipo1] 10/10/2014 10:49

Rabbar Yes sounds wise not to panic, there is no major fundamental change that we known of atm. My gut feeling is we are near the bottom as long as we hold 410p. Still sitting on my hands but very tempted to drip feed a few at these low prices. Good luck

[wipo1] 10/10/2014 10:45

Codek - You can't rule out someone has info of forthcoming bad news, but it does look like a cyclical stocks sell off everything from gkn mro to tw. Ect.

[rabbar] 10/10/2014 10:37

Hi wipo1, no money to invest at the moment otherwise might be tempted also, but not too concerned regarding drop. Just taking dividends and waiting for Cevian to show their hand regarding these but mainly with Alent.

The woes for vsvs seem more than brutal markets though. Whereas ftse hasnt moved in the last year, vsvs is now down 10%. yet there's no news? Does someone know something perhaps?

[wipo1] 09/10/2014 17:31

No probs Rabbar glad you got the div ok. I hope you are not too badly hit in these brutal markets. Vsvs is one of the few stocks I kept I am tempted to top up but sitting on my hands atm.

[rabbar] 07/10/2014 10:56

Thanks for the reply wipo1, got it on the 26th also but HL puts it into a different account, which I found out when I had a look around on the site.

[wipo1] 06/10/2014 18:45

I got mine on put in holding account on 26th Sep. I Hope you have yours by now Rabbar

[rabbar] 30/9/2014 12:36

Anyone got a dividend payment recently. According to information dividend was payable on the 26th but yet to receive any payment.

no bother mickey.

[michaelmouse] 01/6/2014 20:09

It is if you include total operations, but I concede if you strip out discontinued operations then the p/e ratio is around 12. By the way its you're not your. Michael.

[pyemckay] 01/6/2014 19:48

its not on a single pe michael, thats the disadvantages of not researching it as you mentioned. Your very well named! micky mouse indeed.
