Looks like Standard Life have upped their stake in Clipper - now over 5%, which may help to explain recent gains.
To be honest this is the only share price I don't check regularly as I know that the SP is irrelevant as the trend for online shopping and returns is going to be huge. I watched when I worked in a post office the amount of returns increase until the majority of stuff was parcel returns for online shopping. The fact Royal Mail are going to trial parcel deliveries on Sunday tells you something in itself.
Topped up this week. I think we will be back in the 600s in no time. I have been very tempted to trade, but I am just going to hold long-term. I think Clipper will be a solid dividend payer for years to come - and I think the sp still has plenty of capital growth left in it.
This share is all over the place on no obvious news....... must be good for those trading it (I'm not)
market sentiment is a fickle thing. (I bought at 300 so I am not really complaining just puzzled).
I think it will keep doing well.
a few days ago the weakness was down to shares in lockdown companies starting to go out of favour as part of the reflation/reopening trade. also there has been some talk of taxing the ecommerce companies by way of a delivery tax. all things which could squeeze margins. however this hasnt come to fruition in the budget but the shares are still suffering from being in the lockdown camp. it may take a trading report or results update to see the shares rerated again, if of course business continues on the up, which i understand it to be so. i have lightened up on these on the failed break but still hold a position given that there are obvious M&A risks in addition to the underlining growth story. well worth picking these up on dips.
Not obvious.
mkt going other way but clipper shares close to breaking out with a target near to recent highs on the double bottom/tea cup and handle formation. a break over 592p could trigger it. PE was sniffing a few months ago.
contract wins and fulfillment going great guns. the shares do tend to be quite volatile and its tempting trade in and out of this but private equity was sniffing around last year but they could agree. any bid this year will need to be 7 quid plus. so worth holding on to in my opinion. there are quite a few potential targets in the uk and clipper is certainly one of them
Great news for Clipper, a company I've been watching for a while. Finally took a position this morning after seeing this update!
"Together, these two new contracts will increase revenue by over £40 million on a full-year basis, and will be immediately earnings-enhancing from go-live. As a result, the Group expects to outperform current market expectations in the year to 30 April 2022 and beyond."
BOOOOOOOM!
I think the market regards Clipper as a ‘tech stock’. (i.e. strongly linked to online retail) and such shares are generally on the slide at present. Clipper has also been involved in govt work during Covid, which might dry up in the coming months. Of course, online retail is very much the future, so it is difficult to see recent falls being other than a temporary blip. All of that said, the sp has always been on a rollercoaster. One might hope this will change as the company matures.
All over the place on a daily basis for no obvious reason ....... presents a real opportunity at this price with only good news to come IMHO
She s la gs it on Sunday
It rises on Monday
LOL.
I think we're still suffering fallout from the 10% placing that came right out of the blue earlier in the month. The market doesn't like surprises like that. Personally I see Clipper as a solid investment and have taken the opportunity to buy some more.
Very difficult to understand what's happening to the share price here over the last couple of weeks. Everything seems to be lined up in the companies favour with strong growth in the UK and internationally. I assume this is a blip with further increases in the share price for the rest of year, particularly after the results in the summer.
hello all, i haven't invested in this stock yet as im just doing some research to see what potential this company has. at this moment of time i am quite satisfied with my research and think this sp will perform very well in the near future, however i just wanted to get your opinions as im sure some of you have been invested in this company for some time now. so if anyone has any other information that might help me make my decision in whether i should invest i would be very grateful.
thankyou for your time.
Cannot understand the relative lack of interest this am, following the news about rapid expansion of their business in Europe.
Today's RNS should allay all these doubts about the S/P. Just sit and wait for the music.
Surely worth topping up at these levels.....
Whatever the reason, his placing appears to have helped in knocking off circa 15% from the SP in one week.
And the funds raised from new shares issued in the placing would go to the company, not him.
He’s selling his shares as part of a placing. ‘Estate planning’ - doesn’t sound unreasonable, he started the company in 1992. A director selling isn’t always a bad sign, they should be able to realise significant gains (without selling the whole company) if they’ve built a successful business.
Company raise
he's raising funds to stick in his own pocket? am i right folks?
Off it goes again .....
