... over 24 hours ago and still no RNS! So for anyone left wondering: Just shy of 20m votes on each. All resolutions passed. Approx 10% resistance to 6 & 7. Given that theBoD does little to update shareholders with their forward vision and strategy, it was doubly disappointing to find that, unlike most companies, they don't even use the AGM as an opportunity to do so.
Notice a mistake on my blog post on H&T. Here is the updated vision: http://bit.ly/2pck6bz
For those who want to understand the H&T business, you may find these interesting factual questions: - 1. Why their cash cycle is around 400 days? 2. What is the cause of their wage bill rising to 25% of revenue? 3. Is there a problem with trade receivables and inventories accounting for 94% of revenue? 4. What is a pledge book? 5. Finally, is the company’s share price on the high-side of valuation? The explanation is here: http://bit.ly/2qIB9T0
...I feel that the government will soon pass a bill regarding these high interest rate loans not classed as payday loans but charging seriously high interest rates even under the guidance of the FCA. This will undoubtedly have an effect to HAT's bottom line, so with a heavy heart it pains me to say....... I'm out ! GLA
again this morning. Looking to pick up a few more if the market wants to take the stock down.
.....should make good reading once again. Hopeful of picking up some more cheap stock this week as the market will no doubt take the price lower ahead of the results. Nice.
And considering this stock is very illiquid on most days nice to see a screen of blue !
For those out there looking to buy into this sector and are looking at Ramsdens, I would say forget it ! Just had a good look at last years company's accounts and its full of debt. Reading between the lines, this float is all about paying off the debt and has echoes of Albermale & Bond ! Don't get me wrong there will probably be a premium on the first day of dealings but that will be the cue for the market to get out of this stock!
On yer bike, this company will do extremely well over the next few years, it doesn't need you lot ! Move on !
...trading statement today just confirms the untapped growth potential of this company, nice one. Onwards & Upwards
Considering this share is notoriously illiquid, the turnover for the last couple of days is a bit of a shock ! This company will thrive in the next few years, I just hope that someone is not trying to get them on the cheap !
.......albeit a very interesting read, especially the last sentence but one. http://www.nottinghampost.com/pawnbrokers-vengeance/story-19203337-detail/story.html And with the many pawn shop reality programmes now on the TV, pawning has now become 'in vogue' and has at last started to shed its Dickensian image. Inflation on the way up, Brexit casting doom and the slowdown gathering pace, three businesses that are immune and flourish during these times, Funeral Directors, Debt Collectors and................yes you guessed it, PawnBrokers ! Keep watching !
...butter fingers ! Try this:- http://themoneycharity.org.uk/money-statistics/
Morning all, I wouldn't be too alarmed at the share price drop, it only takes a few sell orders to knock the price as the stock is very illiquid and also being an AIM stock we all know what those traders are like !! As for the state of our economy and the level of consumer debt, this is a very good article:- http://themoneychairty.org.uk/money-statistics/ Don't believe all the bu***sh**e you read in the papers !
trouble is the economy has stood up much better than expected hence h&T taking the hit now, unfortunately IMO i dont think this recession is going to happen and h&T will continue to slide. It doesn't help that this share has very little volume and lack of interest.
What happened, 10% fall on no news?
......confirming that we're heading in the right direction !
Thanks, I think this will creep up further & am looking for around 220 before I bail. BOL
I've been watching this company for some time now, been closely monitoring their debt pile as well. But I think your timing is pretty spot on here, the debt is nearly gone and with consumer credit all but non-existent with banks, H&T are perfectly positioned. We are in the infancy of an economic slowdown, consumers are finding it tough and with short-term credit being offered over a longer period in the future by H&T, this will help enormously. In addition, the figures released by the company use $750 for their pricing of gold stocks for the last financial year and its pretty much safe to say that that price will at least double this year. I think they will also look to compete with Provident Financial at some point later in the year offering better lending rates for 'doorstop' loans. So, all in all its looking good going forward. It will be a slow and gradual journey as the stock is very illiquid but there are worse punts out there ! 5eights
punt ahead of results tomorrow. GLA
Albemarle and bond take over is imminent
is the growth due to the fact that the Albemarle and bond is imminent.
Any reason into the 5 stores I have heard about closing? Reason behind this?
