I think this is wrth a top up on 218-215. For a 5% raise.
400 wil be a while away. This wil go into my long term hold now. Don't think il be seeing 3-400 anytime soon.
Wow 400 would be a great return, i am holding long term on this hopped for 300 plus.
4 big buys over 20k each. Looks like it gonna shot up any time form now. I hope it does so good luck all.
they see a target price of 400 here
I have a good feeling about this one, think this sort of business will come back strong.
how u getting on with your advise to short this when 222.00
Fact: RBS and ABN Ambro rates Northgate as a BUY, stating reasons that Northgate are on track to deliver on the goals set in July's strategic plan. I read this in yesterdays Daily Mail, page 103. Opinion: I think you are more likely to make money going long on this share than shorting it, much greater upward potential, could easily reach 300 in the short term.
told u rob.up 3.44%.listen to bulls be in pawnbrockers every day?
british bull****.they chancers guessers follow the obvious.ignore them
does anyone have link to share registar?many thanks
exactly right investment houses think price is right to enter.any one spare cash now time top up?
how long can this stock hover at these prices, institutions are busy filling their boots hoovering up cheap shares at the moment..
This share will get stronger but needs time, i am in for 2 year + when things should look alot better. I dont think NTG results were to bad considering what they have been thru. Loads of companys at the moment are on the floor as regards share price, we will look back in the future at how cheap they were.
standard life buy 909,443 shares making there total holding to 14.5% showing confidance in the company i see this as a postive gla.
Probably a long way off. On balance prefer INCH but both linked to economic success.
£3 by xmas doesn't look on the cards now ! But.............. I'm still gonna top up !!! L
Struggling with strategy on this one, especially in comparison to INCH.
i meant short term( < 3 months), not medium term regarding HMV. Dannny, i understand...there is a lot of speculation regarding china too...but that is also another bubble waiting to burst. might as well do a quick in&out...lol... MWA is another good-ish bet - new finance director just bought 200K of shares but it is either a vote of confidence or courtesy buy, depending on how you look at it, i guess.
Personal thing but id never buy retail shares, just dont like them, too dependant on consumer spending of which xmas aside there isnt going to be any, can only see your average man in the street getting poorer as all the tax rises and inflation start to come into play next year. Im back to focusing on my strategy of only investing in emerging market companies and trading commodities. The only times i see to loose are when i get tempted western focused rubbish. The only british or US stocks worth owning are ones whos core business activities are done abroad.
for a medium term perspective, HMV is a good buy at the moment, imo. they are well financed(even bought shares in mama holdings recently), and all their competition has been wiped out - zavvi, woolworth, borders, etc. they have opened an extra 30 outlets to take advantage of this once in a lifetime opportunity of a bigger piece of the cake over christmas sales(for which results will be announced next quarter). however, i have a mate who says apparently, they aren't doing as well as they expected(article could've been from alphaville?). still, at current prices for HMV shares, you can't go very wrong. the results will be out tomorrow and could go either way after announcement(my guess is up as expected narrowed loss has been priced in) but buy on any dips after that. apologies for the spam.
i hope you stripped intangibles and goodwill from your calculations. these 2 items don't pay bank loans or defer repayments and are hard to value.
well, the fears about spain turned out to be unfounded(so far) although they were legible, as seen by NTG reporting they still feel uncertain about spain although utilisation rates have increased to 87.6% from 79.9%. the fact that they are not declaring an interim dividend won't be well received by the institutions but it sounds like this will be just one blip, may be reinstated in the next scheduled payout, depending on performance in H1 2010. so in all, i feel 200p will be a good support line but there is a chance it could fall a little below that. if mike's calculations are correct(i'm a little lazy to calculate at the moment) and 218p is the NAV per share, then buying at 200p is ok in the long term. but for a share that is currently not paying dividend, i will buy at perhaps after a flat line at 180p(pure estimation) to allow for a little loss if things doesn't go well for NTG. even if NTG rebounds at 200p, i have no regrets as shares are doing my head in at the moment - haven't been trading much. the banks' dirty laundry being aired at the moment isn't helping much either. not much help, am i? lol...
