Mrmarkyw, time will tell if I was right to sell when I did, but I wanted to the money to invest into more aviva as their dividend is due soon. I sold just prior to the new tax share. I have money in my ISA due to the new tax year to reinvest if I see a reason to do so, therefore, I'll definitely be keeping an eye on this board :)
Good luck with your holdings
Well I hope you are right Stach… I actually don’t think there will be any new news on profits as we already had the end number more or less confirmed in January … and I’m guessing they can’t pay dividend for FY24 due to restrictions… so I’m not sure we will get a significant bump… but hopefully a rise to 1.10 ish and stays there to give holders some faith. I guess an upbeat trading update for Mother’s Day and Easter would be needed to ensure this happens… otherwise it’s a wait till mid year where there is a likelihood of dividend announcement
We all love gambling, that why we are here :-)
Dividend, reducing debt, positive trading updates and adherence to growth targets with further relationships and progress towards the omnidirectional sales should encourage a PE of more that 6... Of course, we need to see how closely CF is delivering on this.
Those pesky mms. Lol. Hopefully your complete guesswork will be correct and the share price will go up on the confirmation of the higher end profit margin and a divi reinstatement. However, if history is to repeat itself, the share price will drop and Grahamc72 will be so pleased he got out when he did. Nobody knows, we are all gambling , some of us are just more honest about it.
Bhaven..
Hello there. You have made an important point in your posting yesterday at 15:40. There is quite an attempt by mms to keep this share price down and with considerable spread to,to fllush out weak holders before theFinal Report on the 30th of April.The pressure is to obtain shares here for arround £0.935p/share and you can sell any number of shares straight away.What it tells you that possibly an Institiutional Investor or a wealthy private ones want to buy this share but in a process mm want to make big profits too.There are only 12 trading days left to the Results and there is no doubt that the share price will move up substantially as the news on profits should be excellent .There should be some clarification about future Dividends too.So the guy,who sold just yerstaday will be upset that he did not wait a bit longer.
Good Luck .Stach
Wow, that is cheap. Probably too cheap! Card Factory is imho the happy medium!
Stach, do every one a favour and filter yourself permanently, not your usual 1 month posting, then 2 months hiding. Take your ridiculous mms conspiracies back to your bed sit, stick on your tin foil hat and don’t forget your tablets, all the best fella, remember the sun will always shine, bless.
Personally, I wanted my money to buy another stock.
I may buy back in at some point, but as I said, for me. There was little movement. I had been in red for quite a while, so it was good to see a recovery.
Sorry to anyone leave… may I ask why you didn’t fancy hanging on for a few weeks till the expected results day build up and rise?
Sold my holdings. The price hasn't moved for me in a few years unfortunately and I have reinvested the money elsewhere.
I did manage to make about 9% though.
Good luck to all with your investments.
Bad players at it as usual! Made a nice little trading profit as is so often profitable with Card given the silly trading patterns.
Mrmarkyw...
You are now FILTERED and in the company of other rude posters from this BB. i shall be no reading your false rubbish. Stach
For once i hope so as I want to buy more but ideally at the 93p level! I’m not so worried about a competitor with 60 stores … and B & M doesn’t seem to far out of sync with our price points unless I’m mistaken…. Agree with your points about online even though it’s such a small piece it was worth about 20m a few years ago but now is barely half that
Nice little move today... Let's see if a bad player tries to squash or once the US wakes up...
OK. Understood and accepted. Stach certainly has come and gone at suspicious times, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's doing anything wrong. Let's all just analyse this as best we can and try to be fair...
Wiscos I’ve been posting on and off for over 3 years on this thread, I believe I’ve even interacted with you in the past, if you can see my previous posts you will see in no way am I a deramper , quite the opposite. I certainly do not post a lot or regularly, is just that fool is really getting on my nerves and probably doing more damage than good, with his constant bleating about market maker manipulation, lol, it’s trades about 200 times a day, it is an unloved, under appreciated and misunderstood stock that should be a lot higher. Every time Stella reports come out, the share price drops, because the city aren’t impressed with the online business, which is a tiny proportion of the businesses core, although you would hope they will be addressing this, it seems they really don’t understand this business at all. But I’m also a realist, a very small competitor cards direct was mentioned and I gave an honest opinion that they do offer cards of similar quality at much cheaper prices. I was in fact quite shocked at the price increases at Card had implemented about a year ago and nearly sold back then, I’m hoping I don’t regret that, but as I’ve said earlier, I do believe there is still a way to go yet and I will get out hopefully at the £1.16 area. Like with everything in life, you need to do your homework on shares and not let your heart rule your head. I called out Stach for what he is a very periodical ramper, who will disappear again soon and reappear with the same crap later done the line. Just giving my honest opinion on a stock I’ve held for a fairly long time now, still think it’s in a good place, we will find out at the end of April.
And no Stach,I haven’t bought shares in card direct as they haven’t floated you idiot.
14 posts in one day? Get your facts straight and stop lying. Yes I hold a large amount in card, so I’m not trying to devalue the stock, I just find it pathetic people like you come on for a short period and do everything they can to ramp a stock, then disappear without trace and now you’re back spouting the same crap. Look at the tiny amount of trades this stock produces each day, your efforts are wasted fool. I Hold and will continue to hold as I still believe this will get to about £1.20. I will then take my handsome profit, I will not wait for more, I’m not saying it won’t go a lot higher, it may well, but I’ve learned not to be greedy and when you see competition like cards direct and home bargains, selling for the prices they do, for me I think it’s time to sell. Anyway keep up the pump Stach, before you once again evaporate into nothingness,.
Stach, have to agree with you...
Mrmarkyw...
I see you have bought shares in Card Direct and come hrere trying to put off Card FACTORY buyers. it will not work for you as here are to many believers in CARD and long term holders.Institutional investors hold over 30% of total shares here too.
With 14 posts here in one day, it looks like you may be one of those Market MAKERS yourself? Stach
His silence is deafening, perhaps he’s gone again and will reappear in three months, shouting at those pesky mms, holding back this share…
My wife is now a convert to Card Direct. I do tell her our pension is with Card Factory, but she prefers the cards, and when you can get 10 decent cards for a £1, and the shop by us is larger and brighter than the two Card Factory shops we have, I cant blame her.
Another big sell just after the market closed. Patience!
Have to agree - I noticed exactly the same thing a few months back...
