Make that £34, der
As the saying goes, it wiped it’s face at Year 52 week low, but found plenty of support there, so let’s hope this time it won’t retrace.
I don’t think I understand you, lowest price is 4306. It wasn’t an attempt at humour was is? I’m only here to get some others’ opinions not have an online argument. Thanks
I must also congratulate you on buying at the lowest price of the day. That is brilliant!!! How did you know?
Very good purchase price. You wont regret it unlike me or others who bought at much higher price.
I bought in a 3414, if it does break 34 it’ll sink like a lead brick
Oops!! Not breaking 34 so u might as well close that short :-)
Sinking quick. Next stop 2800.
I have a feeling if this breaks 3400 it could sink real bad real quick
Time to average down or will this piece of junk keep going down for the whole month?
this has got to be the longest downtrend ever for shp - i make it nearly all working days of 2018 so far (give or take 2 days) and she aint slowing down :-(
There are no short positions on this as far as I can see, so the hedge fund guys dont think it should be going down ...
Holding out for as low as 34.40 is a bit greedy - added a large chunk of stock this morning at 34.92 and happy to hold. The share is ridiculously oversold and Shire has tended to retrace very quickly in the past. On forward PE it looks very cheap and Shire is still run by one of the best CEOs in the business and paying down it's debt impressively fast.
Most people would take that bet . Fingers crossed though
I bet they'll take it back up to 40s near results update
They don’t need a reason, sentiment and momentum will do for the corrupt markets.
Why the massive drop this morning?
Fair enough Joe, good luck with your holding.
Andy - I was disappointed with the update as I was hoping for more of a positive update, possible sale or definite float of Neuroscience division, but when another 3% came off the price I reconsidered and still think it a strong buy at these levels albeit I/we may have to wait for the momentum to eventually pick up.
Joe, you posted "Out" when the SP was at 37.10 ,and bought back in under 36, giving Shire a Strong Buy??? A little lost on that, may be it's just me. I may have misread your posts, that's just my interpretation.
that trade actually sucked...i do believe it should find support once again 3440
I find it very difficult to judge atm.
a shadow of a doubt shire will have a bid of higher than �45 this year - you can take that to the bank. atb
