Not much going on for the last couple days but a good 20K buy today
Have started late the buying today but as the day reaches midday the trades are appearing in the ticker and every time the trade is larger 9K and paying full offer 59p.
just now another 3K at full offer and share price goes up
MM decided to move up on the bid 57p after holding it last Friday when the demand was strong
Happy Valentines Day 2020
For my friends , I wish you a happy Valentine's Day
celebration and wish you get cherished love-filled
moments on this special day of love.
May you feel a wealth of love this Valentine's Day
I added today as I think we have reached the bottom. It may take a while but a 20p uptick is more than possible with a few good contracts..
Some good buying this morning full offer 59p but no movement yet, should be ready for it as the Market size is small and already 50K of buying so far no sells, last buy no long ago of 30K ( very rare )
Think you might be right. The go ahead for HS2 should be a big plus here. There has been a big upheaval of the management and hopefully we should start seeing a bit of optimism..
Starting late wth the buys but a good 8K buy at full offer, is good enough, at this rate something should move as already yesterday were paying full offer 59p
and the spread is closing again as the bid goes to 56p after a couple more buys with the last one paying full offer price
Another large buy appearing 50K @ 58.634p
Early movement UP on the bid side, the buying trades are adding at the ticker as the day goes on.
The share price has bounced from the 50 days MA, bullish as the Indicators are now rising also after the last retracement.

A large size buy reported after hours 30K @ 56.50p, no wonder the spike late on the day or after the RNS of 2 stakes being top up, must be the 4,186,961 share place by the director at 50p on the 6th February .........

VANL 54p ( 53-55p )
On the recovery path after restructuring an placing new directors at the helm. Should be a beneficiary of yesterday's Government news on the go ahead for HS2. The CEO has been buying 3 times for the last 2 months. Some good buying since yesterday as the spread is narrowing.

well some people liked it, albeit a slightly delayed reaction! Interesting to see what happens over the next few days
This will clear the air and slowly expect a slow recovery. Shall hold and buy a bag of chips with the divi..
Profits warning. Everyone seems to have been informed except me!!
Insider trading...whoever heard of such a thing!
Something is wrong here, the fundamentals and the share price are at odds with each other. Either the board are misleading PI's or the price is being manipulated for a takeover?
This is in 'falling knife' territory at the moment. Unless someone is 'in the know', which is of course totally possible with AIM, I await the next relevant RNS before deciding what to do. With no support this can obviously go lower than this over the next few days. In my bones I know logically something is badly wrong here, but could be an opportunity if by some miracle all is well. In the latter case why would the management not put out a statement to reassure investors given this plunge?
I see there was a sell off yesterday afternoon. Did someone know ?
I would expect van elle to be in a very good position to be awarded contracts when hs2 finally gets going, and their could be a nice windfall in the future as the second phase of hs2 goes right through a nice large chunk of van elle land.
Sold half of mine this morning, but will watch closely and buy back if news improves. I cant see why this has downturned so quickly, but then again the board seem to put out bland, slightly encouraging news followed later by 'o dear it hasn't worked yet' updates. I need to see more real progress before believing in this again.
My observations of markets is that they tend to over-react to unexpected news
The share price is now only a little more than 1/3rd what it was in Sept last year ... and the full year forecast was for revenue to be 3% below estimate and profit at bottom of range. What does this exactly mean is difficult to tell but my guess is Rev around 75-80 and profit 4-5 ... which at current price is a p/e of 7 ! I also think that they won't drop dividend entirely and could easily pay out 2p (on 80m shares thats only 1.6m cash which they easily generate.
Brexit uncertainty has been so detrimental to so many industries, but it is probably going to reach a conclusion before year end and either way I think that will benefit a company like Van Elle. If nothing untoward results (which I think is most likely) then investment and confidence returns - if a recession and GBP / USD parity results (v.v.unlikely) any UK government is going to turn to the money tree and infrastructure investment to boost demand, again good for the likes of Van Elle
I tend to agree but the profit warning was not well received. I have held to my cost but will not average down..
