I dropped out today. General markets look much riskier so I took a small profit and closed. GL to those sticking with it.
Oh well Stupmy
Unfortunately, I had to get out many days ago when Cpi was showing a determination to take back its share price losses. I fully sold out at 14.30p taking a small loss as my breaking even was at 15.44p and didn't like the small but constant volatility of the general mood of the stock market.
Although, the negative algorithms affecting all stocks since last week and with today even much more will eventually ease out, there's no guarantee that it will come any sooner with the potential of an all out war kicking off in the middle east which I believe is brewing up the general negative sentiment across all stocks.
Nonetheless, the Gbp currency has made a positive comeback against many currencies.
As it stands, I will remain out of cpi and continue staying where I'm currently newly invested where I'm already taking a small hit due to the continuing stock market negative sentiment. Best of luck to everyone.
Yes NF, I got 13.78 or something, which was enough to a bit less than a penny profit. It's not a core holding for me and it's not at all clear it will pay out quickly so I rationalised it. I see the US markets as likely to continue selling off for the next 10 days (blackout on corporate buy backs leaves them without much upward pressure).
Well I'm stuck with 480k at 20p and thus now in freefall again.
I did warn of UK weakness and today's unemployment news did not surprise me. Amazes me how the latest gdp update was a 0.1% MoM rise... will it be revised downwards? It's hammer 🔨 time for property sector too... these nonsense articles being pumped out about the strong residential sector in boom are utter nonsense, browsing the market these past months I've seen much of the stock for sale being well overvalued and sellers significantly dropping prices... more of that to come I think and commercial estate is in major crisis.
Looks like you aren't the only one bailing out, NOFEAR. 12p appears to be beckoning, again.
@JG68
Ha could be worse - I'm stuck with 704k at 24.9p and I doubt very much that I've got the highest average here (ask Schroders) ,😁
Rome wasn't built in a day and as long as we hang on - we will be rewarded here - all this buying and ramping and selling at a loss (mentioning NoNames😁) is not for me ... And over the longer term isn't a great strategy imho 😁
If you look at the list of II here and how they've remained steadfast behind CPI - they aren't taking trading and taking losses .... They are waiting for the big return ... And so am I ... And it looks like you are too JG68!
(Not a good day for MCG either I'm sorry to notice)
The next bounce will be a big one perhaps but... so too will the drop which will surely shortly after follow it?
Iv added imho could bounce tomorrow
Good inflation data tomorrow could see UK stocks recover imho
US markets should recover by the evening I reckon lol let's see imho
Trenners
Between this and MCG I've aged significantly the last couple of years, got about your level of investment here in MCG, so I know how you feel.
But I'm not going sell out of either if/when I ever break even.
This has been fairly steady recently, just really poor markets today.
If you look back when this seemed to settle after a month following August's rns, and then markets tanked for a week or so in October taking it from 16s back down to 15s again, then it started it's upward move to 20s again.
Subject to further middle east escalation I'm hopefully expecting a similar move again.
Or before it. Or both!
No Fear - I’m afraid I’ve found it very difficult to take you seriously for some time. You ramp/deramp to suit your position and forget you have a posting history! All that flannel about using your professional investment platform trial to produce reams of info….. and you bail without a word (until the share falls)…. I notice your doing it again on banking shares….. shameless is what it is.
Bipolar comes to mind, not a good frame of mind to invest with
Savage - you still undecided on CPI? You’re posting twice as much on here as you are on your stock pick BT?
Hi broomtree... I purchased another tranche of BT recently for about 104p as I see it as being defensive... Right now for me CPI looks vulnerable to unexpected cutbacks, as terrible performance of UK PLC precipitates... constant press defence of 'robust UK economy' increasingly looks delusional, as its true condition is gradually being revealed with emerging data. The legacy the next Gov inherits will be worse than anyone envisages imo.
Be happy broomtree that I shared anything with you cpi investors.
If I wasn't so caring as I'm normally am, you and many others here wouldn't had not jàck šhit if not from what I kindly shared. You wouldn't have been able to afford it.
Moreover, If you think that ramping or deramping a stock is a sign of suffering from a bipolar disorder, than all those stock brokers that constantly publish contracting stocks ratings must be suffering from the same disorder.
What gives you the right to go around the chat forums insinuating that I were to be suffering from a psychiatric disorder?
How dare you🤬!
Not that I would be ashamed if I did suffer from any kind of mental disorder, but to be posting comments implying that I do, is imho very rich coming from you. So, hey yeah. Keep accumulating those recommend👍 up votes. Whoever voted for your stupid post can join you to the same place where the sun never shines. Iđiot
Please do me a favour and take a good look at your asŝhole before you looking at others. You may be surprised what you'll find in your back end.
@broomtree
Your observations of NF are spot on. He's totally shameless about it too. It is quite bizarre how someone can be so mentally (as well as literally) invested in a cause, to the point of utter fixation - and then, one day, he just decides to nonchalantly walk away from it all.
Nothing that NoClue does should ever be surprise. If he's now sold (again) after pumping this for a few weeks now, why is that ever a surprise? Anyways, moving past his pointless shenanigans, we're stuck in a range and I took the opportunity to add more today. My holdings here is the highest its ever been, obviously not to value wise. It's been a painful few months, but with AH at the end, I'm confident he can pull off what the hapless JL couldn't.
I'll add more if it hangs around these levels OR goes down!!!
Thanks Kamyk
I hope things will work out for your investments whichever those are including cpi too🤞
Have a good rest of the week😉
It seems AH is regarded as some sort of messiah. AH is not announcing to the market his growth strategy until June 24 that’s 6 months of growth and pipe line building gone. AH vision to use partners has both benefits and drawbacks. When Capita started out it was heavily dependent on partners which worked fine for a while. However, using partners means margin on margin and limited control. The lead company is always held accountable by the customer when things go wrong
I don't think he even needs to be a messiah. All we ever needed was a CEO who acknowledged how bloated the cost structure was and that CPI would never generate the required FCF if no changes were made. Woke JL kept going for as long as he did having a Kumbaya with everyone other shareholders. A diligent CEO like AH only understood and acknowledged the unsustainability of such an approach and is now embarking to cut costs big time. I, at least, am not privy to what may be coming in the strategic review in a couple of months' time, but showing cost cuts and a pathway to clear FCF from 2025 onwards would be key I'd imagine. Unlike JL, he did make a couple of market purchases soon after he could and given it's make or break time for CPI, I'd like to think he's focused on delivering this sustained cash returns message to the market. Maybe a new CFO annoucement beckons in the update?
"He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy"
But he is now our best hope to get out of this mess, so far I am pleased with his approach and a breath of fresh air after JL sell everything, lie and put your head in the sand strategy . The main issue for me is will the workers understand this is our last chance and accept the changes.
Market starting to move upwards imho
Thank you AimMaster2018 for your kind thoughts. Hope it works out for you and everyone here invested with the new Ceo Adolfo.
Catch you around😏
