More life in a tramp's vest than here

I didn't think they were bad either, nothing special but nothing alarming. The market thought otherwise though and now with the wider market sell off we are going the wrong way

What about the results has gone down so badly?

Stevie, Jatw, let's have some exuberant optimism.....I'm calling a good rise!

Are we thinking the sp will rise when we join the FTSE? Surely those that needed to sell have now sold. But institutions like tracker funds etc will need to buy, so a possible reversal of the drops we saw post the FTSE announcement may be on the cards

It seems very likely they'll be a rate cut today but I'm not sure they'll be that many more in 2026. Perhaps one or two further 0.25% cuts but a few indicators remain stubbornly high

Ah, thank you Stevie, so no chance of a bounce from that then. The £20m must be insufficient to balance the selling.

I will likely buy more but if the main market move is not until Q1 2026 I may as well wait a month or so, then see where the dust settles

I don't know how you have the patience to ignore the share price!

The plunge continues! Does anyone know the mechanics of the share buy back? As in, does CVS buy them all and then cancel them in one go? Or as and when they are purchased?

I have been a bit surprised by the level of the drop following the announcement of the Aim to FTSE 250 move. I'm not IHT planning so it's inconsequential to me in that regard. It makes sense that it will be a deciding factor for some investors and some institutions will also have to sell.

Will be interesting to see if there is a corresponding bounce when CVS relist.

If this goes much lower in the next couple of months I will be making a sizeable top up

I would have thought some will sell now but others will buy when it moves across. I don't have much of a concern either way. That must be why they didn't answer my question at the results presentation the other day though!

RBC Capital Markets lifted its price target on CVS to 1,900p from 1,500p and reiterated the 'outperform' rating.

After the recent results and CMA announcement that's more towards where I think CVS should be trading. A shame to see the strong rise on the release of the report wiped away in the same day. Still, the market isn't always logical in the short term so still confident in the overall trajectory

1.87% on the shorts now so a sharp drop off from the results earlier in the week

Shorts at 2.46% now on the site I use. Was still showing over 3% yesterday

Stevie, just checked the short tracker and can't see any change but unsure how often they update

I have the value higher especially after yesterday's update. If the CMA come back in the next week or so, even if not brilliant news, some level of certainty should help and I'd expect it to go higher still. DYOR yada yada

Stevie, I asked a question, it was your one regarding joining the FTSE 250, mysteriously dodged!

Certainly undervalued, with the CMA update due imminently there could be another good rise around the corner, but it will still likely be undervalued

Do you know how quickly the short tracker sites update? It would be interesting to see if/how much they decrease by

Good results and happy to see 8 new practice sites already this year in Australia, last financial year was 15 in total so off to a strong start
