Bloomberg says Funds might buy and bottom fish to add spice to their portfolios from beginning of Jan as they have a year before their performance measured .
If that is true then Dark might benefit by new revival of funds buying into Dark again from tomorrow onwards … with Darks closing pricing price going upwards trend
A close above around 520 p would be solid sign of buy signal , if more agressive then around 475 p or 430 p or 411 p depending on how agressive! Good luck !

Pipeline of Clients and how long it takes to convert a sales call into a client including free trial … Their could be a 3 month time lag on all the new clients coming in due to the Log4Shell episode …

Today the Times has an article “ Stock market Winners and losers from a post Civid Rejuvenation “
A picture of Dark Ceo is in the article , which says early backers sold is reason for the drop … have a look at The Times article today it talks about winners too ! Hopefully Dark can be a winner this year !

The Addressable market is huge globally - across industries- if they can convert many of Microsoft clients to Dark Cyber … then in a year exponential growth growth possible …

Agree surprising they use cash to buy back - however the Dark management know and believe their shares oversold and undervalued at 420 p …
If the share goes to 800 p then they actually make around double money on the shares bought - similar to Elon Musk buying Bitcoin - actually could contribute a high per cent age of profits if they were allowed to sell - so they can make/ save money and incentivise key staff more cheaply … Also to some extent buying their shares stopped the downside - gave confidence to other investors to start buying into to Dark again - let’s see ! Hope ARR goes up in next 2 Quarters !
Certainly we are all trying to contribute .. I try to remind people things are expected to get better and not sell out in past 2/3 weeks ! My purpose of mentioning MA is not to be a D1ck , but because some people do use MA crossovers as indications of trend reversal … so far not hearing much thoughts on MA from others …
Next week funds back to office … Dark could be one of highest growth shares in 2022 as Motley fool says ! My views are simple a Mirror of Jeffries / Berenberg.. which few people here seem to believe at the moment … I mistakenly thought that the 3 placements of shares were mostly LTH , and I think Kick was saying probably not and most had already sold out … so if true that means 15 per cent of big investors who sold out at 750 / 580 / 620 have managed to off load which explains why Dark went down further than expected as going down meant Ftse 100 trackers and short term investors who bought the 3 placements lightened up … hopefully they will come back when there is a clear break out upwards … probably 40 day MA would be a safer indication
USA courts not nice … Prince Andrew hiding in Windsor while his family goes Skiing , Next week VG will hear weather Usa courts will allow her court hearing to happen … Similarly here some investors await to U.K. court case result in Jan By end of Jan results / court case result clearer !
Those who post mostly hold or intend to hold a few shares… as most people sold out , then they might return and buy back in .. then more interest and posts
Sadly the narrative on Dark changed in past few months - nothing really changed on business front and 2 analysts keep sane targets so far .
No one has commented on the merits of MA except one person who talked about 8 day MA …
What interests me most is what signal people use to spot the clear confirmation of high probability Break out upwards …
One person posts never prevents others from posting ..
I am looking at Moving Averages … some investors follow Moving average as a signal to buy in - sometimes 20 day - today first day of close above - let’s see if holds
Maxwell found guilty in Usa courts - years in prison - not surprising …
On second thoughts it’s quite likely some of the shares bought in the 3 placements have already been sold … unless they were LTH … most of those investors could probably have sold under the radar so difficult to know !
