Great that we seem to be staying above 5p though :-)

Evaluating the listed price against the spread i think Jessell

I agree, Vanya should perhaps stay in that armchair and do more in-depth research perhaps lol Like many online sites, the focus can tend to be more about constant content creation a rather than a quality focused approach as they are trying to build a web ranking presence.........which is actually counter-productive long term if you want to utilise digital marketing properly.......

Same here, the sites been atrocious most of 2020, really needs to upgrade it's sever capacity and update it's layout etc.

Been invested in PFP for a number of years, certainly not been boring I guess :-)

I remember you from GGP too JR, are you still invested there?

Hi VC, the government stats may be below true numbers rather than overinflated unfortunately. You should talk to someone who runs a care home or works in a hospital and you might be quite shocked at some of the situations they are dealing with and I now have a close friend whose family has been touched by the virus.

Something far worse than the seasonal flu is causing a lot of extra stress and heartache for these exceptionally hard working and compassionate people who look after us in hospitals and care homes. Its important to remain open to debate and retain the ability to change your mind no matter strongly you believe something. True knowledge comes from keeping an open mind and avoiding becoming cynical and too entrenched in any single belief.

China has actually become more self-sufficient in that regard in that there are many internal consumers of its manufactured products nowadays GM21 :-)

Lets hope that negotiations go along on the sound principle that a good deal is one where everyone walks away smiling :-)

Hopefully, NM senior management team should be wise enough to avoid garnering a reputation of screwing over explorers as it could dissuade others from doing business with them perhaps.........

I'm enjoying it during the lockdown.......like watching a mish mash version of Step Brothers and Brokeback Mountain!

Just kidding guys and trying to inject a bit of humour into the evening - we're all on the same side - even where we differ in opinions and strategies :-))

At the very least this latest update will give the SP moe stability until the 30th next month :-))

ISA's for next financial year I presume Arnie :-)

Ah I see why you're called Flashy......asking Paddy to put a picture of one of his holes' on twitter........... :-))

Definitely, I forgot to mention to EM88 that Lenovo being their partner is one very positive area. Lenovo did extremely well taking the PC business from IBM and turning it around and becoming an industry leader and I saw this first-hand as worked for IBM at the time. They recently adapted their partner program scheme in to help out companies like Dev during the pandemic so that was definitely a great forward-thinking gesture based on mutual interest. Plenty of challenges ahead but I do think Dev will come out of this very well. Patience is always key in investing but as always everyone should DYOR and invest accordingly :-)

EM88, I agree mate, we are going to have a VERY difficult period ahead across the globe after the pandemic declines and I've actually excited many of my investments in the last few weeks (such as UK builders as an example and thank god I did) and switched to more commodities based portfolios.

I'm a business and marketing analyst so keeping up with both the economy and industry trends is how I make a living :-) I decided to keep my Dev holding as one of the trends I foresee is certain technologies actually getting an uplift in that we're now being forced to use virtual conferencing over flying/driving to clients etc. and the already expected growth in there areas may increase as inadvertently it will become clear that you can be very productive using these tools VS the cost of flying and driving for face to face.

I'm under no illusion that Dev and most companies will have very challenging circumstances ahead but I was lucky enough to get into Dev very cheaply so even with current prices sat on a good profit and feel holding onto my shares will work out very well as I don't see Dev being under threat and indeed see them coming out very well into mid 2021.

Hi EM88, I've had a look at their platform and its a very good example of an online career platform of this nature based on my experience of project managing digital solutions and plenty of experience on the production side too - its one of the reasons I decided to invest here. Not sure about the pricing but assume its competitive as the market is very competitive but they seem to have experienced market growth so no reason they can't continue to be competitive. The acquisition of Phenix will also strengthen their ability to do so.

Also as you said spending will be reduced - but I also suspect that having solutions in place to enable distance and online learning will become mandatory as part of contingency planning - so this will help soften any potential blow to sales and certainly a sales channel I would heavily pursue were I working there.

Devs capabilities in software development and innovation also impress me as their recent move to quickly adapt current product set to new market conditions so again I think they have the right tools to be resilient. I always invest in mid to long term basis as oppose to worrying too much over daily or even weekly price movements so based on my research I do feel that in 12-24 months I will have be doing very nicely based on my average and amount of shares held.

Should read :

One change i see EM88 is educational institutions and workplaces looking at building in contingencies to avoid the issues caused by the pandemic closing down physical locations (perhaps as a mandatory requirement) and perhaps due to the experience during the next few months making additional investment into online and distance learning.

Another being that certain solutions such as the careers site will be very much in demand during a recession to help all the newly unemployed people and people leaving education needing to perhaps reconsider their first choice of career due to that particular industry being in decline due to the pandemic after-effects.
