Sounds like a very relaxing weekend, am jealous mate! Do we have exact date yet for results? Guessing end November. Yup may as well av down as much as poss here while we can. Am still juggling with what to do re OCDO, but getting a sense of something building up at work. Maybe just general tensions and speculation as CFC2 gets closer, but it's enough for curios me to keep holding there (but one eye always keenly on here!) atb Au

Deary me, what is happening! Happy birthday regardless mate, on the bright side, it's Friday! You hitting the town tonight? Actually, you did say you hoped to pick up more DQE @ 35p next week... now it looks possible :)

36.70p is very tempting. First need to figure my best course of action regards OCDO. Possibly reduce my holding there, but not an easy decision. Au

you saw that too. Many happy returns for tomorrow, let's hope you get your birthday wish!! Au

38p for 5k shares? I'm being quote 36.7p for 5k shares, what's that about? Au

meant for OCDO board... Au

The same broker has turned its eye towards online grocer Ocado, and thinks its third quarter (Q3) sales update is likely to disappoint. "Despite a slow start to Q3 due to the Bank Holidays around the Diamond Jubilee, Ocado (as of the interims) still expected to see accelerated sales growth in Q3 and Q4. Given the likely impact of the Olympics upon sales, this now looks unlikely, as it always did," predicts Panmure Gordon, which is a seller of the stock. "We are looking for 13% sales growth in Q3, but this looks to have downside risk. We believe that Ocado continues to underperform its multichannel competitors," the broker said.

Actually counting on DQE to stay steady tomorrow, getting all my thrills with OCDO atm and it's brown trousers time with IMS due in morning :/

Just realised a company named itself after me, that's golden! Au

that's a buy, and ask ticked up to 36.85p (woo-hoo??) Au

Honestly respect your opinion and am prepared to eat my words if I get it wrong, but really have high regard for Ocado, not just emotion, genuinely impressed with the company as a whole - been there 2 1/2 years now, seen a lot in that time. With CFC2 so close and potential 'tipping point' in view, it's an investment I'm willing to risk. Obviously I'm trying to trade a bit off the current dip, but whatever the short-term outcome, intend to hold some longer term for when CFC2 is operational. Tomorrow's IMS should be interesting. Au

Fair enough re OCDO, quite intrigued getting your opinion to balance my optimism - to be honest getting little nervous myself, wondering if working for a company blinkers my view a bit. Overall I'm confident in Ocado long term (wouldn't work there otherwise), but in the short term finances are looking tight. Au

Can't help but be impressed with your judgement, looks like your exit here was spot on and your advise to me regards CHAR has saved me some grief. Only hope your not right all the time, ref OCDO! (only 2 days to find out which way OCDO goes...) atb Au (PS pastyc, well done on your exit from here too)

yup, agree 3k @ 36.90p should be a buy, err but 10k @ 36p, that looks like our a seller. Oh dear. Au

not 'with', just optimistically... Au

also have funds tied up, awaiting ocdo ims this week, if good (he says with optimistically) may be able to top up here. Atb Au

OK, think I'll hold off for now. Thanks Rid, saved me some digging around there. atb Au (aka world's slowest researcher)

Sorry for o/t, wondered yr thoughts on CHAR, oversold? thanks, Au

I'll probably regret saying this, but what's happened to our seller? Last week, was selling as low as 33p. Would have thought the small rise on BK news should have prompted an opportunity to offload more? Dare I say it, any chance they're done? Au

Unlucky on the poker mate, don't play much myself (as I'm rubbish and my poker face is a complete giveaway). Sense with DQE, the market is still waiting for something else to happen before it reacts properly. Personally feel DQE need another major investor to get on board - someone somewhere must be eyeing this up. And if not, why not! Au
