Almost certainly hiding in the background ready for the slightest drop to tell us to sell!
This paragraph doesn't leave me concerned: Human trials could start within four months after studies on ferrets, led by an expert from Public Health England (PHE), found the spray could reduce infection and prevent transmission.
I didn't mean to offend you falkland but it's worth everyone on here knowing that you don't know what you're doing! I must have seen you get the sp direction wrong five times already and I've only been on this bb a month or so!
NEX rises a few percent, you pop up saying i'm out for now, be back when it drops to 'x' only for it to rise another 5%+ the next few days and you buy back in!
Shut up!
Nobody, and that's kinda the point. Wait it out for good long term profits or mess around trying to trade it, maybe doing well, maybe not.
Balanced, I agree with you. Seeing as there is so much expectation of a crash, you have to think that the gloominess is already factored into markets. It seems to me that crashes are generally unforeseen and it's that surprise factor that catches people out. After all, the ftse100 is down 25% ytd and the ftse250 more than that. Besides a full, restrictive national lockdown the most I see is the wider markets trickling down another 5% or so...
I haven't been investing very long but going by previous market crashes (ignoring the one in March), do all stocks tend to suffer indiscriminately? I assume those with strong fundamentals and well-suited to the environment (i.e ncyt & covid) do just fine?
I do feel something brewing and so a week ago I moved all the money I had in contrarian stocks (think depressed price, debt-ridden and not trading currently) out and into novacyt/boohoo/synairgen/NEX.
The sharp bounce back through late March into May led many investors (including myself) to become more risk tolerant and contrarian in their stock picks. It felt like it was only a matter of time before IAG, RR, EZY, CINE etc you name it would again snapback from year lows with 20, 30, maybe even quick 50% rises. It did occur at times to a degree but in general they've stayed depressed and some are continuing to see new year lows.
I personally still think that some of the beaten up stocks will turnout to make investors huge amounts of money but for me they're still too risky and I need to see them fall further and also be confident that they'll have the ability to recover without heavy dilution.
Finishing well up whilst the ftse was well done fills me with hope. It's a big if but if we see calmer markets at the start of next week I think we might quickly find a new base around the 150-160 area.
Could there be a day soon when we have an sng type day, I know it's from a much higher base, imagine imagine imagine.
Don't forget the forward looking P/E value is still tiny (approx 2.5). This company has more than proven itself as the ultimate growth share so who's to say the market won't rather rapidly reevaluate it to a P/E of say 10 and give us 300% returns?!
It's extremely difficult to find shares like this one. I have made a lot of money since joining the fray in June and I have to admit a lot of that was luck, as although the risk/reward was good in mid July it was still a punt following the serious allegations. When I woke up and read the rns this morn I was in no doubt that the sp was set to fly and would not have sold out today even if it went well into the 400s. Everything is pointing to excellent results on Wednesday and the only thing that's certain is we'll be saying goodbye to the 400s and hello to all time highs. Prediction at COB this time next week? £5.20.
I've said this numerous times on here, this is the advantage boohoo has over ASOS. How many people really know that Karen MIllen, PLT, Nasty Gal, Oasis, Warehouse, Coast, MissPapp (I mean that last one I continue to forget!) are actually all boohoo??? The irony of boycotting boohoo for plt is quite funny and a good example of lazy armchair activism.
Just for a bit of fun and for something to compare to when the results land Wednesday...
In 2019: Q1 =£254.3m , Q2 = £310.6 , H2 = £564.9m. This was a massive 43% increase from the year before that.
So far this year Q1 = £367.8m (45% rise on Q1 2019). With the new brands coming online, the deeper push into the states and the move away from physical retail stores to online solidifying I'm going for an even bigger percentage increase - £460m making H2 - £827.8m!
Following novacyt over the next few years is going to be fascinating, especially as a newbie to investing. Full year 2020 profit is going to be three, maybe four times that of ASOS, a company with a £5.3b mcap! The most extreme example but eye-opening. If revenue from covid continues well into the future and Graham spends the millions of cash lying around smartly, we could genuinely see an mcap 5 times, maybe even 10 times what it is now in just a few years time.
Yeah I very much agree with others on here. Very happy with today's price action, if the sp continues its upwards trajectory and finishes flat or up then that'll be a strong bullish signal for next week. As tempting it is to try and trade there is every chance of missing a 10, 12, even 15% rise one of these days...
Org, I don't think it was because you suggested it was less lethal, it was because you've been like a dog with a bone... repeating and repeating and repeating it. We get it, you've seen a doctor or two suggest that might be the case. The general response to that is 'most doctors wouldn't agree with you and have seen no evidence to prove that theory'.
Should really be the end of the matter.
