panofscouse ,that may be some peoples view ,not mine ,some at prox in recent weeks had a different view to myself there ,now it looks to have started to move back up some , pearsonly i like mkt , some times patience can pay with shares ,each to their own own investing decision
Always happy to see PIs having a fine day.
Well it's only 2p off the offer price and unless you've got a substantial holding, it's not worth holding on to this share now.
Now researching ,like how share price moving already this morning , annoyed with shares Today had been seeing NT to buy quoted at prox for so long this morning , nice to see a share price moving up as being seen here today after rns , with this news hoping to see share price tick up more
nice
Currently trading at 20% below NAV and according to Bloomberg this morning there's a 'wall' of Asian property investment wanting to take advantage of the cheap pound. Makes this look a good entry point IMO

dead right
Some good potential although PBT and EPS are significantly down. Just bracing for Brexit now, as retail and property looking at a possible hammering this could go either way. GLA
surprised Atmos and barbedwirekiss didn't celebrate these last week. All sounds good to me.
Thanks bwkiss for the detailed info, its always good to get first hand knowledge. The broker ratings in the FT have MKT between 237 to 343 over the next 12 months supporting your theory that its a long term hold, perhaps one for the SIPP. http://markets.ft.com/research/Markets/Tearsheets/Forecasts?s=MKT:LSE
Hi atmos. I think that the first, primary thing that is stopping MKT from 'flying' is the fact that it has been on the main FTSE for less than a year. The big boy brokers are seeing this "minnow" company getting promoted to the big league and they're waiting to see the first year's financials to see how well MKT is doing in the big league. Once we get past the Jan 2017 results, providing those results are 'good'/'positive' there should be more of the bigger players looking at MKT with interest. At the moment Canaccord and Berenberg have target prices of 260p and 280p. I work 2 days/week in the Camden area and so have seen just what's been happening over the past few years. The initial "changeover" caused a fair bit of grumbling with the market traders and there's still some grumbling about the charges that some of them are having to pay. The markets areas are however looking really good. No longer the scruffy banged-together tables, more like proper individual lock-up stall units. It takes some of the ragtag "hippy chic" out of the markets but it does make it look a lot more professional while still keeping a sort of "bazaar" market feel. The new buildings going up in the area are being built fairly quickly, none of the old school 'wait a week for a nail' style of building. Reading the plans for the new Hawley development with housing, shops, offices and school shows a plan for a sustainable "community" rather than just banging out some shops. Back to the SP, the first financials looked good. The debt levels are/were a little worrying but I read that MKT have secured around £300 million in new financing. At this moment I believe/feel that there's not too much to worry about... at this moment, of course. I think another 'problem' for MKT at this moment may be that this is currently not a high volume/fast return share. This is one of those shares that you just have to wait for the rest of the market to catch onto. So the big money buyers won't give it much of a look as they're not likely to get their 2% a week returns just yet. One thing that may cause a problem I think is the planned redevelopment of Camden town tube station. That "might" restrict the flow of visitors/customers to the Camden area which might hit the profits of the shop and stall holders in the area and that "might" affect MKT's profits... maybe. The HS2 rail network is not affecting Camden but will stop in Euston, about 10 minutes down the road which may bring in more customers. At the moment I believe that MKT could/can create a pretty good percentage return. However I also think it'll take at least a year or two before those gains become obvious. Good luck all.
I liked them too after the pp win and held through Feb but sold at lack of movement. I think the retail outlook is uncertain and London property topping out could be negative and of course stocks are being hit by the Chancellor and Governor of the BoE, both donig a great job for Britain. With debt to service there are a lot of uncertainties but eventually should succeed.
Bought this at 181 thinking it looked pretty solid on paper, debt increased last year but debt to capital ratio fell while EPS increased. They've expanded again this year but their investments appear sound and they have the backing of the LA, planning permission etc, so whats going on?
http://www.londonstockexchange.com/exchange/news/market-news/market-news-detail/MKT/12689567.html The approved proposals are for approximately 130,000 sq ft gross external area (GEA) and include new enlarged indoor and outdoor market retail facilities, cafes and restaurants, galleries and canal-side food hall, as well as new workspace and an auditorium for live entertainment. The proposal also includes permission for 233 food and artisan stalls in the East and West Yards.
As announced [1] Market Tech has been promoted to the FTSE main market and is no longer a member of AIM. For a company that has expanded its real estate holdings and almost doubled profits after tax in the past year I've got a good feeling that this company should do well at least for the next year or two providing they can keep control of the debts they currently have. What are other peoples thoughts, analysis, reservations on MKT? GLA [1] http://www.londonstockexchange.com/exchange/news/market-news/market-news-detail/MKT/12674829.html
today as believe this company is going places.
Soon surely ?
Although the London property boom has lessened I'm sure it will be back to big rises again hence investing in market tech. On the last few occasions whatever teddy sagi touches turns to gold. So why not here. Looking forward to progress report and a rising sp.
With Sagis existing impressive track record… Playtech, Safecharge and Crossrider….. IMO this share is of pedigree stock and will ascend accordingly. Glad to be the first person to post …. Now I aim to invest ….GLA X
