One day soon that will change. We will break through 34p and then that will turn into support rather than resistance
I bet we knock on the door of 34p till about 11, all the BBS say we are going to smash through, and then we drop of back to where we started.
That’s seems to be the norm at the moment
More ducks lining up :)
Brexit doesn't concern me one bit as this has got to be one of the most brexit proof stocks you can buy. 100% electronic and internet based. I think this applies to macro economics too.
As many have said this is not the company I'd want to take risks trading for small gain. Those seeing the big picture will receive the biggest prize IMHO. Long & strong!
I have a funny feeling Fri could well be the day we push through 34. Nothing like knowing you've picked a winning stock. Makes for comfortable weekends :)
The reason is straightforward, the broker may be Europe based but they have big involvement in worldwide institutions and their broker notes have reach …. I mean real reach into the markets where recent a appointment has been made (US) .. to my mind this is brilliant news and confirmation that James Draper is a man of his word when he sets out a strategy... Sorry for those who sold out on perhaps a whim but I doubled up my investment this afternoon. this is the best investment out there in my view, no tariffs, borders or politics to content with and largely unaffected by the macro picture.. GLA
I really don't think Brexit is going to effect Bidstack in anyway so I cant see the reason for it.
The interesting word there for me is "Europe" could be a pre brexit change.
Bids is a unicorn amongst AIM I doubt it will be around AIM for long.. This is a huge professional broker I think this is very good and could mean something big is in the works. This to me means they are not going to do a fundraise.. these are not an AIM broker for an aim fundraise.
They represent 71 companies with a total MCap of £32bn, average Mcap of £445m
Very interesting change & choice of new broker, think Peterhouse paying the price for the way they went about the placing
Yep, good news here, bigger broker for bigger and better things in the future.
People always seem to panic over the mention of the word broker. I think a lot of people instantly think new broker = discount placing which is ludicrous especially in this case. No need to panic, quite the opposite, this shows where we are heading.
I think this is more about looking ahead and leaving AIM to join the big boys.
In followup:
Peterhouse (Old Broker): AIM specialist
Stifel Europe: Huge Broker
So this is a big upgrade from Peterhouse and although not fundamental to the business it shows the progress Bidstack have made. Will be interesting to read the broker note when Stifel write it.

Restructuring
They also serve a lot of institutional investors.
Have you heard of Google Fudge?
Who is stifel?
Because the bigger the broker the bigger the exposure. Stifel will be able to give Bids some strong exposure across the US.
Well not one i was expecting, why the change?
