The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring Jeremy Skillington, CEO of Poolbeg Pharma has just been released. Listen here.
Massive over reaction in my opinion. Just bought into this drop.
Today’s rns is encouraging. However, the timescale for profitability is relatively long. If I was intending on buying these, I’d wait for a week for the news of a chosen site to die down and then purchase at a lower price.
The dividend, in my opinion, takes second place to the sp. It may be useful for financial institutions as a revenue stream but for my net worth an increase in the sp is more relevant. Despite the dividend being low and costs increasing the income is up. They have planned for interest rates increasing and in the long term this looks good.
Currently up 3%, I expect unpredictable events like this are more likely to lift this sp rather than the widely anticipated rate rise.
If/when the interest rates rise, I don’t think it will have an effect on the sp of DT. In my opinion, the interest rate rise is already known about and has already been factored in. It is unexpected changes that cause the sp to change dramatically. This could be a trading update or news about cyber security threats.
Not usually this many trades daily without news. I’m also intrigued by the £100k purchase at 16p. I think that someone could be trying to accumulate a reasonable amount below the radar.
Still made a profit but only just. Their prices are too high, I’ve stopped using B&Q and screwfix. If I find the expensive, so will most others. Now the most shorted stock so time to bale out.
I bought at 315 on July 7 after selling most this time last year when it was 800. I don’t think this is skill, it’s luck. It’s called investing rather than gambling to make it sound like an opportunity to increase your money by completing lots of research.
My advice to anyone new out there, would be only ‘invest’ or gamble with what you can afford to lose. However, while I’m being lucky, I’m enjoying investing.
I bought recently at 315 and am so far very happy with my decision. I don’t intend selling anytime soon. Cybersecurity is the future and DARK is one of the best if not the best.
The board members have invested significantly more than 100k. However, this recent £100k purchase makes me think that someone investing that size of order has done their research and is confident of the future. I agree that the current mcap appears ridiculously small.
I think today’s RNS was a game changer. Whether you purchased nearly £100k at 16p, a smaller amount recently at 11p (me), the purchase price is almost irrelevant. This is going to multibag in my opinion. It’s massively underpriced. It finished in the top 3 today which should have potential new investors researching it. I think the most level headed and fair summary of the company comes from hunky who has been here a long time. If you read his posts from when this was called starcom it should help.
A brief summary from myself that I hope will be added to and corrected:
1. Won prestigious award from dhl for digital locking device. 2. Board are invested heavily. 3. Has gps tracking devices that go into containers enabling their location to be pinpointed instantly. 4. Software after sales enables recurring revenue. 5. Potential target for global company like Maersk. 6. Future products in the pipeline. 7. Has potential for triple digit sp.
Another order. Looks like things are going in the right direction for a company that produces a quality item and goes on to support it with longer term software sales.
That’s what I said at the end of last month. Just bought again. I think the global pullback has had its day and things are about to turn around. Let’s see if I’m right or wrong……
I think the global sell off has as good as finished. Might be proved wrong. Of all the shares I’ve had, this is in one of the four I’m confident has a good future and have therefore bought back into.
I’m waiting 2 years from the top before buying again. 2023 is too soon.
The sp of a company like this is not always related to it’s current balance sheet. Instead it can be speculation of the future, good or bad. Short tracker shows 0% which is encouraging. However, go back to 2000 and the doctom bubble and you will see massive losses for companies that today are world leaders. The Nasdaq is on the slide. This could continue for a couple of years or it could rise again. Choosing which you think will happen is called gambling. What’s a certainty in my opinion is that we’re heading for a recession and property prices are about to tumble. Hold on to your hats and good luck.
The ftse 100 was 6900 over 20 years ago. It’s now 7700. This is an increase of 11% over about 0.5% per year. A current account would pay less, an investment in property would have been good.
The current account is safe but a poor return. Property is a gamble that would have paid off. The stock market is worse than it looks. Those who try roulette at the casino think it’s luck and even chances. It’s not. 0 and 00. Over the long term you lose. This is exactly the same with the stock market. Companies join it. The new entrants do well. Failing companies leave. It’s a scam. You aren’t even going to see a 0.5% return over 20 years unless you choose a fund and give them 1% or more. Wake up. It’s gambling. Better chance of benefitting from the grand national. Oh, no, that’s gambling!
You’d think so but I have 2 children at uni. Their rent is each £800 a month paid for 12 months a year. It doesn’t leave much remaining.
Pleased I don’t own any shares in this. Looks like they are about to be worthless, in my opinion. Stick your money in the bank and get a steady 1.5%. It won’t match inflation but it also won’t decrease in value.
I sold Barc several months ago at the above price. It had nothing to do with the sp, more to do with having invested (gambled) 12k in Mar 20 and it increasing to 30k a few months later. It would have been much more if I’d left it in my initial choices instead of listening to ‘advice’ and switching.. I’m tempted to return to the stock market in these lows but am listening to my gut feeling. I don’t have a mortgage, got 50k in savings (that are depreciating due to inflation), have a salary of 54k but currently struggling financially. I have 2 of my 3 children at uni who cost about 10k a year, I travel 300 miles a week which isn’t cheap but do shop at Lidl and grow veg. If I’m struggling how are people with rent to pay or minimum wage coping? Must be horrendous. Historically, the only thing to fix this would be war. Fortunately, I don’t think this is on the table. Instead I think we’re about to face financial Armageddon. Strap in, it’s about to be tough. Of course, my drunken opinion only.’
