Re my last post. I notice I put 70 THG shares. I was thinking of my last purchase of shares at 70p. I have substantially more than 70 shares.
Not being knowledgeable or interested in Status Quo I was curious what song was being referred to. Looking up on the internet I see "down down" as a song. Very apt. I trade shares in companies I have long term holdings in as well. I find in most cases trading profits on volatility cushions falls. I sold some on the bid news but still find myself well down on original investment like most. I still am optimistic. There was (and hopefully still is) interest in this company from potential buyers and those that walked away can come back after the regulatory time period when they cannot (unless a another suitor bids, then they can re-enter). We do need updates on trading, cash, the golden share and listing upgrading. My retained 12 purchases of 70 THG shares have been bought at levels from 328p down to 70p. I am reluctant to buy more without news but believe catalysts will come at some point, possibly not in days or weeks but look forward to seeing THG share price surge on that news and then I can sing the song "up up and away" by 5th Dimension. We all hope and dream but if "you don't have a dream, how you going to have a dream come true"
I’m assuming/hoping it’s Jupiter getting rid of their last 4%(?). They stopped selling for a few days, allowing the stock to rally to 70p. Let’s hope they’re nearly done. I suppose we won’t go up till they are.
Did anyone notice AO... almost 20% up for reporting loss! Well, this is what it happens when too much negativity piles on a share... I am looking forward to the day where the notification is going to land on my phone that it says THG up 25% :)
If its the likes of Blackrock reducing (yesterday's small reduction), they need stock sales to fill orders.
Either that or Jupiter are heaving off the balance if still holding any, hard to tell but may have an indication on short tracker tomorrow.
Everyone that has taken a long position the last 12 months has been in a loss. Is it the only share though, no, but it doesn't make any easier to swallow. Unfortunately, I am getting a massive hit with this one and others in my portfolio like Boo, Asos.
The funny thing is that they say about the volatility in Crypto, they should take a look at THG and it is more than 90% decline or Asos, Boo 80%... A decline in SP like there are businesses ready to file for insolvency, which isn't the case. Actually many of them are trading currently below their net asset value. They worry about earnings, fair enough, probably the earning will not grow massively, but with lower admin / marketing cost the overall picture can be improved.
What I really think is happening, many withdrew their money from e-commerce and they put in other sectors like oil, tobacco, mining etc, we just caught on the wrong side of the cycle, insisting that we are right, missing the point that investing isn't about being right, it's about making money.
They need rns about TR1 % from big fund before anything getting better. There are stream sell so that is why shy keep down for some time .
170 p offer after dua diligence so it mean now share under value for sure. They don't offer 170 p for fund. Just wait and see the share come back its true value.
Boom16, REVB is anything but an “opportunity”.
Short term doesnt matter really, I know I will get my 100% gain here, whether it will take 2 months or 2 years I dont mind
lol, at least there's good volume, makes it a bit more interesting.
Jonny - I totally get you on this, did exactly the same, could have cashed out a large profit on THG then got stuck waiting for another bud.
Now tied in with no free cash to invest in other opportunities as they have presented themselves (such as REVB), total disaster plus year, bad timing from me and some bad luck….
The minute this opened today you knew the market makers were up to their old tricks and determined to push it down to at least -5% . Wouldn’t be surprised if they don’t try for a -8% day on absolutely no news etc
Is it the Jupiter rump being sold off similar fashion to REVB, or is it just prop traders drumming up business squeezing retail (again)for stock..
Only comfort I take is that an offer of £1.70 was formerly made for the company so that at the very least is my target. How long it will take to get there I have no idea but yes, THG my worst performer and most frustrating. The lack of information/updates from the company doesn’t help!!
Jokers are running this company - Live 64.76
Down for no reasons over 5%, its f joke this share becoming
Yes it is really depressing, it would be great actually if Matt was out there as any other CEO of a growth company trying to find investors to support THG growth instead of being Matt and moaning. Anyway, at least he spent some money recently to buy some shares.
Yes Oxfordbull, that is correct. Honestly been stupid. Not needed the money but sold due to getting "something back" from other investments and think mainly cause THG hurt me a bit on way down. Weirder still that i am a betting man also, and yet can lose larger amounts at one sitting at casino/online than investments in a few months and still jump at the chance of small profits, doh! I finally got in when bottomed at 80p, when it went to 150p I got all my money back, should of sold and stayed sold. O well, live and learn, don't need the money...yet :)
Jonny- Sounds like you are making decisions with your emotions rather than your head. Invest in a company, have a price target and a stop loss and leave it.
Garbage, utter garbage. Sure most of us here really regret not selling 150p. I sold 140p, then bought straight back in due to fomo as so much talk of offers 170-250p. Had no joy with shares this year. Shot myself in foot selling Igas after a tiny uptick and missed out on making 5 times money and similar with Revb where could of made 3 times money. My faults, but frustrating.
More like private investors being forced to perform reach arounds for the moulding clan
One of Status Quo’s early hits comes to mind this morning.
As Yazz sang, the only way is up....baby, for you and me now...?!
lol
Morning all,
This tickled me this morning.
Cineworld share price is now 8p. Revenues last year circa 2bn and laden with debt like you wouldn't see in any thriller.
Here's the fun part, from peak CINE has lost LESS (89%) even at 8p in share value than THG (92%) with minimal debt (when cash taken into account) and a positive EBITDA.
