Nice to have a steadier day with more buys than sells. Perhaps ECK will settle down again to being the ECK we have known for so long, slow and steady. Regards CM

So am I, lol!. I have thought about selling and re-investing elsewhere on a few occasions, but remembered on what basis I had invested in the first place. Additionally, other shares where I have sold out of because of the share price inactivity have mostly risen even if it was a while after; so patience is required, not my strongest asset!. Nice to have a blue day and to see the Bollinger Bands widen with the share price rise. Still, just one day though and the share price needs to build on it. It would be nice to see further institutional investing on the back of todays RNS, plus directors buying.....who knows.......oh, plus that whisper in the Times paper a week or so ago about winning a new contract be confirmed. Regards CM

I don't know, what is HD+?. Regards CM

A lot of small caps have fallen today and over the last week or so, even those with strong fundamentals, for no obvious reason. The market is difficult to weigh up right now. Another Naked Trader trade AVAP fell back yesterday only to rise higher today after a RNS, so this may be no different after or even before the trading update on 28 November. I am not invested here, as yet, but I do have it on my watchlist. As with any share there will be times of retrace. 8.75p equates to a fall of 3.55%. I've seen recoveries from a lot worse than that, but it can be unnerving at the time. Good luck and regards CM

Half yearly results due out next week sometime; lets hope it gives the share price a new lease of life. Looking at the last 2 holdiings RNS I notice both were for increases by institutional investors. I haven't totally got my head around the latest update last month, but hoping organic growth will be impressive. I feel breaking 140p is like trying to break 100p last year; it took a no. of attempts and a good deal of time. More patience required here. Regarding the retrace in share price, well, it seems a lot of small cap companies have been struggling to make headway over the last month; most of them not as strong as GBG. No more news out of GBG on their website. Good luck all, hope your other investments are doing well. Regards CM

Better keep this quiet then!. Rather have holdings in a company I have a peace with (generally) even if share price rise is gradual than one which makes me sweat, lose sleep and have to wade through all the ramps and deramps to read any sense. Not expecting anything fantastic with 1/2 year update, so maybe I will be pleasantly surprised. "Exceeding market expectations" would be nice though. Regards CM

Congrats. re. SEE, long may it continue. I have TLDH on my radar along with a no. of other shares, but I need to feel my luck is changing before I invest further!. On fundamentals my holdings are strong, but it has not been the best month; it happens occasionally. Perhaps it is to stop me getting complacent; whatever, it's a pain in the a***!. Good luck CM

I've just revisited my post of 28 October. In it I showed a concern about Henrik selling a majority of his shares. Looking at it again what he was doing was selling 2,000,000 of the 3,000,000 he had as an exercise of options, so in fact he was keeping 1,000,000 therefore increasing his original holding. I don't blame him for selling 2,000,000 at an exercisable price of 6p for what.....40p or so. Disappointed at retrace in share price, but it has happened previously and looking at the final results RNS again and the fundamentals, things should be ok, especially if we take a longer term look...........subject to any RNS nasty surprises. Would be nice to see this push mid 40s though rather than looking more at 40p. Regards CM

The market seems to be run by the lunatics out of the asylum. Good news - inflation down, good news - unemployment down, err, wait a minute.......maybe that means interest rates will be going up!....panic!, lets sell the market down!. In my opinion the market knows full well what is happening and when it is likely to happen and are looking for any excuse to mark the market down so they can make money by folk bailing out worried so they can again make money when it rises again. We've seen this so many times. There is bound to be some retrace from the near market highs of late. If the fall today was share specific, that is HAYT specific then there may be reason to worry; but as far as I can see it is not. Yesterdays RNS was very good so this is probably just one of those days where after a good rise there is a retrace, although by more than any of us would like. I would like to put this one away on the back shelf and rest easy. I notice this board is pretty quiet, that is usually a good sign. Hoping it will stay clear of the oiley and miners rampers!. Looking forward to more good news and a declaration regarding any dividend (not expecting a mega declaration). Heres to a better day tomorrow. Notice the DOW is up at present, if it stays up by a decent amount then maybe it will help. Regards CM

I can see no reason for the fall back today other than it being linked with the general market retrace and the fact I bought in yesterday!!. Saw this happen with GBG when I initially bought in some time ago only for it to reverse and head North and now double what I paid. Who knows, maybe it will happen here; but disappointing.....again. Good luck all Regards CM

A cracking RNS on 4 November, institutional investors increasing their holding, the share price holding up, momentum and trades increasing, seemingly good reasons why I have topped up my holding today at twice the price I initially paid. I believe in averaging up, not down, into strength not weakness. Time will tell if this was a good decision. The last RNS will have more effect come next financial year so I am not expecting anything in the short term. Regards CM

Good evening folks. The following is courtesy of Growth Company Investor who have a good track record on their recommendations. http://www.growthcompany.co.uk/recommendations/2424012/hayward-tyler.thtml They should never be taken on their own of course but do help with research. I bought in this morning at a tad under 69p having read the results. A little surprised that the share price didn't end more positive, but this is off most radars at present and I can certainly live with a steady rise and consolidation rather than a rocketing share price which has little support and tend to fall back as quickly. The fact that the company is intending to pay a dividend is a good and positive sign. Regards CM

Good evening folks. I think this was on my radar some time ago, but it has just re-appeared courtesy of the Naked Trader. I read the NT diary and use it as a useful tool to research further. Looking at the fundamentals this does look promising, despite the rise in share price over the last month. One question comes to mind which someone may be able to answer is to do with the dividend. If it is declared in $ does it get paid in $ or is it paid to us Brits in £?. A long time ago I had shares in an Irish company which paid a dividend in Euros, not a lot of use. Getting too late to research further but definitely on the watch list. Regards CM

Seems like I missed this yesterday: http://www.gbgplc.com/news/gb-news/etoro-simplifies-sign-up-process-with-gbgroup Good to hear from you C8, thanks for your post; re-assuring. Good luck and regards CM

My top up yesterday seems a little ill timed, along with my top up in RMG. Just about sums up things right now. The trades today for GBG seem strange, with sets of 5000 shares being sold almost collectively and seemingly pushing the share price down with it. It crossed my mind whether someone was trying to short the share, but perhaps that is me getting paranoid after GBO!. I guess the fall is nothing more than a little noise if we look at the longer term picture for GBG, but at present I could do without it. Don't take too much notice of my last post regarding GBO, I was just getting something off my chest and on reflection it may have been better thought and not said. I stress I have no basis to go on. Here's to better times. Regards CM

Hello BT; thanks for the post and your comments. i don't want to think about GBO too much right now. There is just something at the back of my mind which concerns me regarding over stretching itself to try and keep in front of its competitors. I've seen it before with another company when everything looked so rosey. However, I am almost certainly wrong and I have absolutely no basis to go on, no evidence and I don't want to influence anyones decision, it is just a Chequemateism I dare say!. Regarding JNY, hmm; one of those companies you can argue a case for investing in along with many others. I liked most of what I read in the last trading update, particularly the fact that the company is paying a dividend twice a year when it was only their intention to pay one; shows confidence. Even so, I decided to go with GBG further; still seemed a better investment; even more so after todays news. Take care BT, enjoy your lie ins and the cups of tea to go with it, lol, what luxury, good for you!. Regards CM p.s I looked at investing in SNCL about the same time as you having done extensive research; it met much of the criteria I set. Decided against it for whatever reason. Just shows you that some factors can't be foreseen and you/we can just get unlucky. Win some/lose some, but sorry all the same.

Small top up today. Wonder if the large trade(s) were a buy or a sale; maybe there will be a holdings RNS within the next day or two. Hoping trading update will prove positive to share price with organic growth proving particularly strong and stronger than last update. Oh, by the way, I have just found the following!: http://www.gbgplc.com/news/gb-news/semarchy-partners-with-gbgroup-to-provide-superior-data-to-its-global-mdm-customer-base Mmm, yet more news from GBG; literally just found it. The news just keeps coming!. Just thought I would check their website before finishing post. Regards CM
