Hi Chequemate, thanks for the welcome. I guess the share price here has not been recognised by the market for a while, and hopefully the interim results will waken up the market to CLL (But not too much!) Quiet boards are good. I have looked over the figured of CLL, and I see it as High Value (Cheap/Undervalued), High Quality (Increasing revenues, increasing profits, increasing earnings, good cash flow, strong balance sheet and affordable acquisitions. While the share price has not performed, this is one company that should significantly eventually outperform the market. Certainly the momentum metrics are starting to catch up with earnings upgrades, so hopefully relative strength will improve. Dynamic M

Broker upgrades and revised digital look figures now estimating a forward EPS of 57.81 and a PE of 16.8. Pre-tax profit circa 16.89 we are now looking into value territory once again. A new high for STAFFLINE on todays price and and certainly continue to hold. GLA

A Pre-closing Trading Update, and as expected positive trading and earnings growth in line with market expectations. Trading on a forward PE of 19 x it is currently not so cheap. But with the recent M&A of Avanta and the growth of Welfare to Work placements, then this stock is still worth holding onto.

Staffline, the national recruitment and outsourcing organisation providing people and operational expertise to industry, today issues the following Trading Update for the six months ended 30 June 2014. The Group expects to report its half-year results on 23 July 2014. Following the AGM Trading Update on 15 May 2014, the Board today reconfirms that current trading remains positive and earnings for the six months ended 30 June 2014 are in line with market expectations. The Group continues to make good progress across a number of its key growth initiatives, including Staffline's core Onsite business and its Welfare to Work division. The acquisition of Avanta completed on 10 June 2014 and work has now commenced combining the business with Staffline's established Welfare to Work business, Eos. The Group also today confirms that the final dividend payment for 2013 of 6.2p per share was made today, 4 July 2014.

It is good to see CLL today go back above the 85p support line after a few months of down turn. Not surprising with the fall of the AIM All-share index Trading at a forward PE of 11 x this is still a good quality company and remains under valued. When the AIM market turns up again on a steady momentum CLL will not be left behind.

Decent IMS, with the year within market expectations. An increase in like for like revenues of 6.3% which is significant compared to the previous years decrease of 1.5% Quoted - The Company has now successfully completed the refinancing of its loan facilities through to May 2019. There have been no other significant or unexpected changes in the financial position of the Group since the publication of the Interim Report for the 26 weeks ended 29 March 2014. ---- So all in all, Topps Tiles still got room for growth on a forward PE approx 14, with earnings growth should then be around 35 - 40%.

sorry i miscalculated. My average is 145.35, so 3% down now. If it was 134.25 i would have broke even. Pity!

'Hello' CM Yep I am totally supportive of your views in this. I agree in most cases averaging down is not the most prudent and is certainly more of a risker play. But I think reading most boards, that many use averaging down, but many of these companies are what I class as 'junk' poor quality, expensive and high risk. But I see lookers, and i see you agree as good quality and good value. I think the company's price has moved with the FTSE-All Share Index down turn. But I see it has slightly improved and may possibly start to rise again. But who knows. I did in fact use some of my new ISA allowance to 'average down' . A little risky and in some ways against common sense rules. But lets see. My average is now 134.25 with a loss of 8% (of course with now more invested, but my portfolio is still balanced so I can afford to do this.. I have tightened my manual maximum loss target to a strict 15%. Lets see what happens. But thanks for your input, I like your strict style.

FTSE Small-Cap Index has taken a downturn, although i see it is now starting to rebound from a recent support of 4400. Look has fallen out of favour recently, but i believe this is a strong company. The share price is still positive on the year but only around 10% RS. According to the chart it is now oversold, so maybe a consolidation would be healthy before i hope a bounce back to a rising momentum. With a current PE around 12 it is below its market and industry PE averages. It is a difficult call, as to get out using Naked Trader style recommendations and wait for the up turn to develop is good for peace of mind. The other more id' say braver decision is of course averaging down. But this requires a balanced approach in determining the financial position of the company now and future prospects, and whether the market conditions that effect LOOK will turn positive. I believe when the markets turn LOOK share price will grow on these factors, but patience would be required. I will stay in for now at a 15% loss, but I may not allow 20%. I have to wait and see.
