At first glance, you're an idiot abusing copy and paste on every share listed on LSE. You look so intelligent with those happy go luck remarks lol.
At a first glance these look encouraging figures
Well I just topped up at 26p because it appears good value for medium term gains. Cannot see 10p SP imo.
Despite the fact that STCM is losing ground to its stronger competitors, I think it could be worth a small punt in the near future. I’ll be looking at trying to get into this one sub 10p... A very big risk but a small punt I’m willing to take to just let it ride out for a while. I'm not into all this Graph trend shenanigan, but it does suggests it'll be soon. GL All still holding, for your sake I do hope I'm wrong.
No chat on this board? There seems to be plenty of buys going through generally but the price just went down. Hopefully we didnt just break a resistance level of 30p.... This share is currently undervalued, and only a few select know about that. Once its on the radar it should fly

Is it starting to settle down again??? Charts won't help me as I don't use or know how to use them.... Tempted, would like to see 30's tho. 30p buy then a 62p sell would be a nice experience to repeat. Bad time of year for me to find some spare money to invest but I still want to have some of these for the long term so will throw another few K in the mix if possible. Might set a buy order in the mid 30's knowing that if the sp dips that low then I'll be back in on this share on a 'freeroll'.
Yeah I sure will mate. I'm glancing at it every so often...... but it all comes down to that spread at the moment! It was about this time last year that I bought it before...... maybe we'll both get lucky and get an action replay of last year eh? That would be nice!
Let us know when (if at all) you dive back in on this 1. It appears that this doesn't attract much interest from part time PI's like me throwing a few grand at it so I'd always appreciate your opinions/thoughts. Most of the trades that go through on this share are very large. Most of the trades shown are valued at 10's or 100's of K. With a market cap of only £75m, then each of these trades represent a fair portion of the total shares in issue. I'd guess this is why the sp is so volatile.
Hiya mate - long time no speak! Nah, I sold out myself just before Christmas.... felt more than happy with my gain, so did the prudent thing and banked it. (which i'm glad I did now!) I'm keeping an eye on things here..... but at the moment the spread is simply too big. If I can get in on a 'sweet spot' - i.e. spread below 5% and below 45p, then Il take another stab at it! Hope your keeping well anyway mate. Best wishes- 1wjm
R u still holding? I had a change of plan and bailed out at 62p, had too much of my portfolio in high risk shares (and still have....) so wanted to bank some profits on a few holdings. Doubled my money on this in about a year so can't complain at all. It is tempting to get back in at these levels but I think I'll keep watching it for now.
Here is your 45p! Its been about 7 months in the coming...... but you were right all the same! LOL
WTF is going on with this share? Huge buys and the price drops!!!
You will be waiting a long time for 45p mate. Its going in the opposite direction! It had plenty of time to plumb those depths again over the last few months - but it didn't.....WHY? because the people holding the shares obviously didn't think thats where it should be. Don't get miffed over your (extensive?) research - price is all that matters at the end of the day. If the market wants it to go up - up it will go - regardless of what you think - it all depends on someone being prepared to pay more tomorrow for the shares you bought today. You can ask the market to walk it back down to 45p just so you can jump in - but at this stage somehow I don't think it will listen. At the moment - anyone who is ONLY prepared to pay LESS than the current market price hasn't got a look in (especially @ 45p!). SImples. Move on.
You are quite obviously the same person and you are clearly just bitter and twisted about selling your holding of these at 65p when a little patience would have been rewarded on the back of this weeks rise. These little babies are going to fly so dry your eyes princess and man up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
MightyBlue. I've noticed you are determined to 'RAMP-UP' a lot of shares across LSE. However you have failed to do your research on this one. I shall enlighten you. Full year loss for 2009/10 likely. Recently had a massive rights issue that will mostly disappear with this year's operating loss. Dividend unlikely for quite while. Gearing that is still way way too high given this firm's profitability. Massive dilution (reduced earnings per share) when dividends finally return due to the rights issue. A fair price for this share is in the range 60-70p, rather than 80-90p. Please do your own research. I shan't be getting in until price reaches around 45p.
Spread closed right up. Live buy 71.5, Live sell 70.5. This should really start to move in the right direction now that the housing market is starting to pick up.
just got a feeling the recent muliple 100k sells....which are showing most days ...are actually buys ..i reckon somethings gonna crack off here soon.. atb
I agree - this was one share that was definately way oversold at anything less than 50p. Plenty of things stack up for this one, and I think that patient holders will reap easily more than just a 100% profit from these levels in the mid to long term.
Sounds good. Revenue - up, Sales - up, Market share - up. Bad news - in the past... Hopefully!!
