A civil question, have you made loads of money with this stock, what was you buy price and sell price over the months

You would have done better owning tesla with that £5k

I am from cornwall england, not over the pond?

Can you post a link to the websites that state this, I use market screener, it lists all the stock basically in us, uk, europe all sizes, all financials, all eps, divs, estimates, and recent broker targets,

Excuse me, polite questions, I wonder why posters always talk about price increase or decreases and pluck numbers out the air, a stock is based on its future earnings per share, based on current shares in float. you can then look at its earnings, free cash flow, profits and losses.

plucking numbers out the air ?? seen it often on chat forums, , where posters say it will be up 500% next week or its done 3%, looks its back up 5%, you get my point.

anyway what is broker targets, cos they would have run through all the financials?? so what is broker 12 month price??

Asking polite , intelligent questions, if you are an investor, surely you have read through all the financials of the company.

But its market cap is aim size, it has market makers and I dont believe any institution has any substantial holdings, it isnt doing anything cutting edge or inoovative technology, but I am sure you understand my point, something i learned over the years, when you start dabbling with nanocaps .

Can i give you a small tip, when a stock is down a lot and investors are massively underwater, they will sell on any rise, to cut and run, unless institutes see good free cash flow, a moat, plenty of cash in bank, no dilution, massive directors buys, no warrants, no options, no bond conversions overhanging, 99% of stocks in AIM will go nowhere longterm, unless they have all the right fundamentals in place,. IN AIM 99% are retail investors with a few £100 and will sell on any rise to make a tiny but fast buck, that is why tiny AIM stocks with poor fundamentals go nowhere.

Why is it down 90% when the bull market has been in full swing for nearly a year, google, tesla, nvidia, C3AI,META all done so well.( even loss making $6 billion cap carvana is up 1000%) on a squeeze

Hello, how much cash does it have, whats is cash burn per 1/4, how much profit did it make, whats its free cash flow, has it ever been diluted, is it due for any dilution, how many major institutions own it and at what % per institute

Motley fool did a best stocks to buy and said alpha was one of them

Stonking Small Caps: fabulous results, but…

The latest results from this founder-led business were excellent. With a growing product offering and expansion overseas, it remains an exciting prospect and continues to merits the title of a Stonking Small Cap. As a beneficiary of rising interest rates, management has decided to bring forward investment to supercharge growth.

We are always impressed when a fast growing business manages to overcome a serious flaw in its business model, especially when a pandemic is causing havoc to its market. This was the case with an AIM high-flyer covered here, which still managed to deliver a meaningful increase in profits in a very challenging period. It's another innovative founder-led Stonking Small Cap delivering strong growth, attractive margins and high returns on equity.

While this business has delivered impressive growth in recent years, its position still remains tiny in a huge market that is ripe for disruption.

Alpha Group International (LON: ALPH), the provider of Foreign…

Thanks I found it via a search of their website the other day. I dont want alpha to be a takeover target,the CEO is still a young amn and doesnt want to cash in, and i dont think the investors want to sell it. this is one of the few stocks imo that could become a 50 bagger stock. all it needs is a rerate up on its p/e ratio which happens in 50 bagger stocks, then once it matures in many years time it buys its shares back reducing the float. The only thing I want alpha to do is stop the dividend, as if it takes all its earnings and ploughs it back into business it can expand even faster.

I have decided to move away from US stocks as they are still too open to manipulation and hype , and rarely trade on fundamentals.

I only want good stocks, that are debt free, still smallish and early in their growth with a large total addressable market and undiscovered by the mass funds , such as alpha is.

Agreed, it was also commented that we may be close the limit in market cap for AIM, it would be great if more trackers could own us more institutes , when we go to ftse 250 that will happen, prob early 2024. If this was listed in the USA only the equivalent business would prob be on a price to sales of 15 and above, an easy £2 billion cap over there. AS the americans really over buy and buy.

Long term , we need more volume from abroad, that will happen. what sort of sale growth is very high growth??, we are around 25%, but our earnings growth are higher rate. I have been reading up, sales growth means customers really want your product, you are marketing it well, and you are taking business away from competitors, earnings growth means you are very efficient with your capital.

could alpha reduce the number of staff? could AI do some of the dealing, to avoid staff costs?

could they reduce buildings costs, as it must be high to rent a London premises?

I think their banking business will take off , much more than their FX business!!

A mention of AI being used and watch the market cap shoot up as well. as AI is very popular.

At the moment I have money is some US stocks awaiting some big short squeezes, once that happens I will plough more back into alpha, basically cos I will feel safer in the fact it wont drop 30% in pone day or go up 50% in one day as many US stocks do, if you dont time the trade right over there you can be in trouble.

Yes, the interest alpha will earn will be fantastic over the next few years especially over the next 24 months, as the CEO said the interest we earn is the cherry on the sundae, look at our underlying money we make from our services, our fees. of course interest rates are transitory ( so we have been told by bank of England governor) and indeed ( the same in the USA).

Will the stock market be considering that in the valuation of alpha? I am a big fan of the company and hope investors will consider the underlying business as well as the money earned from interest. what if interest rates stayhigh for longer ? will investors leave the stock market and go for risk free treasuries instead? despite companies like alpha earning lots form the high interest enviornment?

Could you post a link to that after hours update from alpha, I cant seem to find it, then i can see if the calculations are correct.

Thanks for reply, I have also been trading US stocks lately as the volume over there is crazy. You see stocks like carvana go up 600% on a short squeeze or tesla or nvidia rise with anything with AI in it,. over last 5 months. the bull market is still going in the US.I understand alpha is a very good company and a good hedge, but its timescale for when we will see a large jump in stock price.

one question what is more important, sales increases or profit increases??, as in the US its all about sales, they dont care if a company makes no profits, ( it means it also pays no tax or dividends) and puts all its money into growing market share.

alpha has nice profit margins 37%, but its growing sales at around 25%, is 25% high enough?, do you think they should cut the div and use that money to grow more sales, and should they stock the stock compensation, as that dilutes us slightly, could we get sales growth of 50% like nvidia or tesla? which runs on P/E of over 100%, Alpha is priced nicely, will it ever see p/e ratios of over 100 , like I see in American stocks.

Odd how the link has 2020 on it , but when you open it it is dated July 3rd 2023

Yes it is frustrating, knowing that this is one of the fundamental best stocks on AIM, you see other junk stocks on AIM having hundreds of trades a day and you wonder why Alpha has such few trades, although the ones that go though can be very large indeed. I look at the US stocks and so much loss making junk over there, but these get huge volume on the slightest bit of news. or some have huge short squeezes.

I also see Alpha has moved to the top pick of UK small cap stock by UK fund managers.

https://www.investorschronicle.co.uk/tips-ideas/2020/11/18/fund-managers-favourite-uk-smaller-companies-shares/

will we be rangebound until we move off AIM? or will institutes keep trading between themselves? eventually increasing the price whilst still on AIM.

It is good to know we have few retail, as that is prob why we dont get much chat here.

I think there are so many red flags here-- one director owns 70% of the free float, which isnt acceptable in listed stocks, the company is losing so much money, lots 4 million HKD. Recent pop up adverts are appearing on websites like LSE and others to promote this junk.
