In my opinion the SP is going to drift downwards from here with the rest of the market. Where is the positive news going to come from in the short term? Can see it going to 7.25-7.40. Will reassess then.
How low will GVC go to day 7.55 is it worth buying in at that
Used the opportunity to sell out of GVC after KA announced he was retiring @8.69. Was left questioning by decision 2 days. GVC seems to be following a trend of 1 step forward, 2 steps back. Always good news followed by bad where your left questioning the timing and full disclosure. Retraces significantly every time with a drip downwards. Better off trading this share on its runs of positive sentiment.
Coincidence that Kenny Alexander steps down for family reasons just as HMRC launch a probe into their Turkish operations a few days later?
Pity Kenny hasnt been appointed Non Exec Chairman as he created GVC & as Non Exec Chairman he could have remained the inspiration behind deals while only working part time .He clearly wants out completely & interesting to know if he sold his shares.The new CEO seems to have a strong CV & has been involved in all key GVC deals since his arrival.
we may now be vulnerable to a bid
Rns confirms great results in the circumstances.
Strong 1H20 results expected for GVC, says Citi Citi analyst Monique Pollard reiterated a Buy rating and GBp 960 price target on GVC, saying that "strong" H1 results are expected. Pollard said that strong web visits data suggests outperformance by the company.

have been at ncyt today as more buyers look to be moving back into covid shares again, looking at the number of buyers
that loading up there again
be good if buyers continue to buy into close and future days here at gvh
Not all trackers are invested in everything on a weighted basis there are replica and synthetic funds. Use a good if a to point in right direction. For me the more vices the better
if someone does not want gambling tobacco sex or booze they should invest in an ethical or green fund.
You would think that funds tracking the FT100 would contain a holding in each security however not every investor would want to hold gambling stocks or drinks etc. We need a Takeover at 15 or higher!
I stand corrected sorry. My point on full replication trackers remains
We were in the FT100 within the past 2 to 3 years, the SP went South till be exited.
I think this is the first time in ftse100 previously 350. Surely index funds have to stake each holding if full replication and not Synthetic?
From memory they didn't bother buying the last time we were in the FT100. This might change when we get the Trading Update which is due on the 16th July.
Now that GVC is in the ftse100 I am surprised there have not been major purchases from tracker funds. Any comments?
£90 million quite extraordinary. Probably tracker funds buying in following full listing. Sp goes down mad
Anyone know who made the large buys today?
Good luck guys!
Status confirmed in past 2 hours. Quite a feather in their cap. Some tracker funds will have to buy
But not me as I clearly stated and why at the time. How little publicity this gets

LONDON, June 2 (Reuters) - EasyJet and cruise
operator Carnival are set to lose their seat at the top
table of British blue chips after the COVID-19 crisis knocked
the value of their shares to below the threshold of London's
prestigious FTSE 100 index.
Companies which could enter the index include cybersecurity
firm Avast and Ladbrokes and bwin owner GVC,
which many investors thought would suffer greatly from the
crisis with so many sporting events cancelled.
Which it appears they didn't
Especially if they make the FTSE100
