i'm hoping SensibleGuy is right, however, Moljen seems to have pretty much plucked my concerns/worries right out of my head! i'm in the blue with this one, albeit not by a large amount, was hoping for mid 29's and then i'd be out with a small but acceptable profit, i'm now thinking mid 28's is a more likely strategy. Christmas trading has now changed i think, and as you said, some of the buzz on the streets doesn't seem to be there, also people are returning more and more stuff bought on the high street, i'm hoping that the online sales will push the scales in our favor, and we get a bit of a spike out of the forecast RNS. On the other hand, the market seems less than impressed with the "news coming" RNS and the price has stepped back onto the slide again and we've slivered back down £1.20 today alone (or something leaked) and i suspect we'll hit my stop loss before the news arrives, only thing right now is that i've held this one a lot longer than i should have/wanted to, and the things i would have re-invested the money into, i've missed the point i wanted into them at :(

didn''t see this before i posted before, nothing much to it, just a notification they will release festive period (nov-jan) trading statement/results...... i swear if these are good, and this dam share goes down, i'm selling, i'm not chasing this one negative again

%$@&£ frustrating share! yo-yo's like an AIM stock, i suppose i should be thankful it's at least paying a dividend, but when i do eventually sell these shares, i will not be buying back into this one!

figures, i step out, and it goes up 6% in one day, oh well, i took a nice profit, eventually, so can't complain, just rather typical waiting for it to get to a point i was happy to sell at, only for that to have been the resistance barrier, and it to step up from there!!

yeah, pretty much my thoughts, i was hoping we might push the 250 barrier at year end, and i might still be tempted to trade it if the price is right, but dividend is one of my priorities with this one, as for the 186 reiteration, yeah, they're wanting to push it down to fill orders i'd guess, which could give an opportunity to profit on the bounce

i saw the opening price this morning, and thought finally a solid step up on opening, now to hold it and perhaps creep a little higher towards 2900..... and then it takes a consistent slide for the day ! holding longer i guess !!!!

..... sold at 425.4, taking into account previous losses with this share otuside my ISA and fees, i came out a tidy 24% up GLA, i'll keep an eye on how things go, dunno if i'll be back on in this one, but never say never, as they seem to be building a solid recovery

report looks good, estimated 3.4p dividend is conservative, works out to about 1.5% based on my purchase costs, not bad as a first dividend, was hoping for a little more, but, better than a kick in the teeth for sure. Results look good, and hopefully a solid platform to move forward on and regain some of the lost ground to where the share price was at in early summer

Trading update, things seem to be progressing forwards with good results in the current climate, as they said, "Good performance despite challenging trading conditions" ........ the only thing i see being challenged is this things share price stregth, barely a blip on the radar from that RNS, got to ask why. Is it because the dividend is, lets face it, pretty poor from this one, tomorrows payout of 14.8p per share is barely 0.6% based on my buy in point, with an annual dividend of not much more than 1.8% and i'm in the blue ! so as a longer term investment, this does not represent a very inviting picture, when there are many others offering 4 to 5%

I was going to say, you can't attribute that to Trump, when this share has the habit of falling like a stone pushed off the top of everest, at the slightest thing!!

yeah, and back again, think i saw 405 at some point yesterday early on, so it's all over the place right now, hopefully it'll spike into my limit sell

..... should have sold these before the yanks voted yesterday, any excuse for a drop!

spoke to H&L they dont have any info really :( not really sure what happens now

lol.... someone gag him .... pleaseeeeee !!!

shouldn't have gotten greedy (again) probably should have stepped off these at 405, oh well, get to hold them a little longer!

where's that gag and roll of gaffer tape when we need it !

and yet the share price fell after close of trading !

i'm watching closely, but, i also have my eye on this stocks replacement in my portfolio, so, if this stays here and the other drops then i'm swapping, if this climbs then i'll have to consider when to get out regardless of the other. I would like to see it over 410, and i think it's possible, but it's hitting some resistance around the 407 mark, that said, these things don't go up in straight lines! but there is also the nagging feeling, that like the RMG shares i was looking to sell, i might be expecting just a tad too much of a rise before falling back, and that this might be the top of the current peak, it is after-all the yearly high point, so we can't complain too much

Sorry, my cack-handed way of saying i was looking at Earnings per share, Price to Earnings and Dividend yield, because the dividend is of primary importance to me, didn't explain myself well there, as usual!!

no worries, i can see what your saying/getting at, dividend/earning is what i'd be looking at with this one, for a mid to long term holding.
