Coming close to the previous year high of 152 - reckon we may be in the 160s soon if this is breached.
Explains drop today. Market uncertainty over why he's going no doubt. Let's hope it's nothing too serious!
And some decent chunky buys today.
Yes been in for a while - good entry point at these levels imo, reflecting current background environment. Expect price to go back up again once they make their mind up on who pays for green tariff (they can't drop renewables - it's an EU law obligation - and the only way to have enough for their target is to incentivise it financially; George may not like it but he's stuck with it).
M&G and Prudential both gone from 13-14% in holdings RNSs. Good sign.
Henderson above 10%.
See comments on TRIG - wind still needed and will be paid for, just will come from taxes. Lights will go out without some diversification.
I'm in here but personally not expecting a vast change quite yet - reckon it may be another year before eg Brazil sales start to take off. But good results could come through sooner and will be happy if they do.
iii link doesn't work. Try: http://www.londonstockexchange.com/exchange/news/market-news/market-news-detail.html?announcementId=11745813 - NAV RNS of 18 October = NAV = 17.3p. TBH, current price now probably about right as you'd expect an AIM Investment company/IT of this size to trade at something of a discount, albeit not a massive one - I would say somewhere between 10-20% discount? Current discount is what - more like 30%? But not sure that's what's caused the drop. Instead, it seems to be the proposed Magna Biopharma Investment Fund link. This article suggests people sold because of the proposal to transfer all assets from here into this open-ended fund - http://www.lse.co.uk/AllNews.asp?code=1a1boizi&headline=Port_Erin_Biopharma_Shares_Drop_As_It_Proposes_To_Be_Folded_Into_Larger_Fund
How do you know it's 17 or 18?
People probably selling on news (which as Vegas says, is actually only to June in terms of NAV, which nevertheless may have panicked some) - on the basis that the s/p will probably not do much now until next NAV update. Worth waiting for that if you're already in imo. I didn't buy in here in the end - went for BION instead (on Swiss exchange and pays a divi) - not because this didn't look good (it does), but because it had raced ahead too far and was behaving too much like a typical chased AIM share rather than more like an IT which it more resembles (and it's always risky to buy ITs at a premium to NAV).
why the near 5% drop today? Another positive, buy, broker note, so not that.
Something afoot? Decent rises over the last couple of days.
Due to US exposure and fear of not reaching solution to debt crisis? Now resolved so back up?
Some big buys gone through today. Back up towards earlier resistance levels again.
Anticipation of a stonking RNS to come I hope. Well they said it would be!
Think LSE have got it wrong here for today's Broker Views - Goldamn Sachs unlikely to have gone from String buy to sell within a month without any relevant RNS to prompt a change of view. Think it probably means Deutsche, who were a sell before with that target. The Broker Views on This is Money today show that as a Deutsche rating. I lean towards Goldman view myself.
Down today but a decent c£250K buy registered after hours.
