This remains a good buy. Lots of blue purchasers and price up 2%. Not many shares out there on established businesses with mostly broker buy ratings and still well under target price. Looking forward to annual results.
Just bought back in again at 157 having sold at 170, its getting dragged down with everything else yet this share has got to be considered now almost a staple share for domestic market after their purchase of local newspaper group.
Hooray. There is someone out there! Yep you might be right or some insiders have allegedly got wind of the extra provision on phone hacking damages, sure that wouldn't happen.

Nearly all of them are automated trades, which suggests to me that traders seek to increase and exploit the volatility of this share.
I seem to talk to myself on the TNI board. Anyway anyone have a clue why there are a lot of small sells today depressing share price when rest of market is up?
Nice little present before christmss!
Good to see Premier Fund Managers adding 200,000 shares to their holding.
hoping that this afternoon and future days may see more buyers , also trying to watch itrk and cpx as some nice buys there , hoping that tnl may continue to move up more as more see the potential of tnl and read the rns
when these sellers are cleared ,then hopefully may see more of a move up , ,
Is The Mirror damned? Phone hacking has tainted the business and its growth strategy is fundamentally flawed. No where left to go!
Nice to see the re-instated div arrive in my bank account today. ATB.
Mirror prepares for staff cuts in digital shake up: Trinity Mirror, the media group that publishes the Daily Mirror as well as many local titles, is preparing to lay off 27 staff across both print and digital.
Mirror shares make splash as Express interest is confirmed: Shares in Trinity Mirror rose after the newspaper group confirmed that it was considering whether to buy the Daily Express from Richard Desmond’s Northern & Shell group in a move that could increase the turnover of the Daily Mirror Owner by a quarter
Trinity Mirror to pay out first dividend in seven years as newspaper publisher begins two week High Court phone-hacking trial: Trinity Mirror – which publishes the Daily Mirror and the People newspapers – has unveiled plans to pay its first dividend to shareholders since 2008 on the day a two week trial began in the High Court over phone-hacking claims against the company
Look in Mirror reveals small company tied to big pension scheme: In 2014, only 6% of Trinity’s £636 million in revenues came from its digital and social networking sites. Rivals such as the Mail are a long way ahead. Still, digital revenues were 50% up last year. Si has also cut debt to zero and is shelling out a dividend for the first time in years having pre-paid the group’s pension fund contributions for this year. Trinity shares have doubled in a year, despite the company lifting provisions for settling phone hacking from £4 million to £12 million. That said, Trinity’s has a distinctly 20th century problem with its pension fund — the one that was raided by Captain Bob Maxwell in the 1980s. Its obligations to retired hacks will stretch way into this century. In 2012, the pension fund trustees allowed the company to defer £70 million in contributions for three years so that it could repay £160 million to U.S. creditors. Then the company’s market capitalisation had fallen to about £100 million, the gap between the assets in the company’s pension plans and its obligations was £292 million, and shareholders were spoiling for a fight with then Chief Executive Sly Bailey over her £1.7 million-a-year takings. A fivefold increase in market value to £500 million has made a big difference to the confidence of shareholders and pension fund trustees. But Trinity Mirror is still a small company with a very large retirement scheme.
Great news on the div, that makes 3 of my holdings that have announced a return to paying divs in the last couple of weeks - LLOY, RSA and now TNI. As you know I do love a good div, even better if they offer a DRIP which is likely to be the case with LLOY and RSA. With the market looking like it may break 7,000 any day and still on the way up have decided to spend some savings on my two as the interest rates are so bad and leave the shares invested. Wouldn't disagree with Lego's theory, but as you say you can also make your own luck if you put in the time to monitor things. Of course it is relatively easy in a rising market to look good, the trick is to be on the ball when it goes in the opposite direction - not something I have ever managed to do!! ATB.
I think I had better leave this bb free for anybody still invested here to comment on the results. The divi is back as promised. As you know from elsewhere, I have diverted some of my investments into spending on my kids. Lego has said on what used to be our favourite bb that it is all down to luck. I agree to some extent but I think you can make a few intelligent guesses as well sometimes and can be pleased if you read 9 out of 10 share prices correctly in the short term and, if you have chosen wisely, chances are the tenth will come very good at some point which kind of fits in with your own school of thought. Happy to know that I have learned when people are trying to pull the wool over the eyes of others on the bbs and elsewhere and would never be in a situation where anybody would take the rise out of me again in shares cyber world.

I do hope Certificated shares still have a future as 95% of my Portfolio are held in that form!! Next time you need to sell a Certificated holding have a look at X-O.co.uk, they will accept a Cert for free then once it is credited to your trading account they have one of the cheapest dealing rates around at a flat rate of £5.95. I have used them a few times recently for new issues and trading and have not yet experienced any problems. Looks like that list was quite useful with TNI up 30% since you first posted it - next time you get some good tips please let me know. ATB.
Yes looks very promising & finger will be hovering over the buy button tomorrow.
Positive write-up, from Alistair Strang of Trends and Targets, with some very pleasing targets. Well worth a read. It can be found on today's Proactive Investor site. http://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/columns/trends-targets/17865/read-all-about-it-trinity-mirror-on-the-rise-17865.html
Don't think digital will ever fully replace physical newspapers which you can use with vinegar to clean your windows or wrap your fish n chips and antiques in charity shops and they are still a godsend for making up beds for the homeless. Let's hope certificated shares still have a future too but HL charged me an absolute fortune to sell what I remember as being the last of mine in Sainsburys but granny still has her shell and bp certs which I can't wait to get my hands on lol. Talking of the supermarkets, not sure if Aldi and Lidl are spending enough on advertising to make up for the seeming cutbacks being made to the ad budget by the big four - not that I have any sympathy for them given how soulless they have made our town centres over the years just ask Fox about that one. Anyway had a bit of success with this and Lad's from that list and perhaps some others - can't remember. Maybe should have held onto the Lad's as takeover speculation and activity in that sector quite the thing at the moment. Wonder if there are any financial journalists around these days you can really trust and who stick to the code of conduct. Off to the abbey and the convent for some quiet reflection.
Good timing that you post this.....I forgot I had a small number of these shares in old certification.....I thought they were worth more....! Really? Now only 186??
Wondered what the relative flurry of activity was here. This article has this done as one of the cheapest shares at the start of 2015 using what it calls its Cape value - must have alook at some of the others. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/personalfinance/investing/shares/11318991/The-cheapest-and-most-expensive-UK-shares-at-the-start-of-2015.html
