Listen to our latest Investing Matters Podcast episode 'Uncovering opportunities with investment trusts' with The AIC's Richard Stone here.
brought some shares todays as i believe this is a great entry point. It wasn't long ago when potential bidders were bidding 2billion plus for this.
Honestly how has the board tried saving the share holders. You can't even say that if we get wiped out it was MA fault. Re-run everything that has happened in the past few months and remove MA from the equation. It was him who flagged the in capabilities of the board and it was him who offered to help.
Yet we have got people on this board who are apparently invested yet do not know anything or struggle to grasp the basics. unless you are a shorter, you have no reason to support the board.
Finally the Deb board is clotted with repetitive and totally irrelevant stuff...Why!!? Please let's stay on topic.
good luck to all who are invested, and may you have the patience and strength to cope with the next 36 hours. Anything can happen , and as much as I would love the SP to recover asap, i know that i will be seeing very low sp from now till tomorrow. It is a MM game and the average ordinary investor will get screwed `History
He rather take charge and turn the business around as he knows it is capable of surviving and making a profit under the right management but does not want to take on to much risk as he has already taken over several failing firms/businesses, which is understanable.
Hence i would urge current shareholders to get behind MA, tweet, email and just activley showing your support online will help.
how many signed the template letter that was provided by spd to show your support for MA. us shareholders cry about unjustice but we do not take action.
I promise you that their are people on this board who would not have signed the letter despite being a shareholder/long on DEBS. Do you not know that MA is realistically the only option of not losing all your money. So please sign the letter, support the cause and tweet MA and the relevant bodies, as today and tomorrow will be the last day to actually do anything.
honestly this is just like the casino. If you are investing now you will either lose it all or double up.
I went long and lost a few thousand mainly on Friday,. as a fellow poster said earlier it is a game of 2 options long or short. Looks like i picked the wrong one.
But this does not mean the end, there are many stocks like this in the ftse that are on the verge of collapsing or bouncing back, so just do your re-search and remember anybody can short, it is an actual way of making money and there are too many board members who are stuggling to adapt to changes quick enough.
But if you want to stay safe, then just invest in an index, do not pick stocks and assume they are safe.
How you are still talking is beyond me, perhaps this is what you do for a living but just know you are a really bad ramper who still will not admit that you were horribly wrong. If you could just admit you are a gambler who betted on this stock and lost that would be great, because you never came close to calling it which makes me believe you knew nothing which seprates the investors from the gamblers.
The board do not want to give to MA, MA knows this and still wishes for the AGM as i believe there he will address the irregularities of the board. How the board said everything was fine end of Jan/Feb and fast forward less than 2 months and share holders are about to get wiped out. How is this possible.
Secondly he made a reasonable offer, the board apparently found something better therefore MA was quick to counter that offer with a new one. If his new offer is better than that of the lenders than the board should expect a hearing in court afterall they are elected to also act in the best interest of all parties including shareholders.
defo 3.5 is not the new low, i expect it to go lower if not today then next week.
personally i believe it will go to 3.3 today but i also believe this is one of those stock you should invest in, but only what you can happly lose.
failed to pass the barrier 2/3 times now. either there is one more rally today and we finish above that mark, otherwise expect to finish flat.
long term this is defo one to hold.
Q: am i correct to assume some shareholders of wrn been gifted shares in wetstone. I was under the impression all wrn holder [prior to suspension] would be gifted shares, how ever this does not seem to be the case. Can some one clarify.
Thank you
i wish i saw this earlier today. it is currently around 107 and as good as that seems, looking at todays range i am reluctant to buy. The chance of it going back to 100 might be slim but if it does i have got my alerts and auto buys on, so hopefully i won't miss the train next time.
on the fence with this one. don't think it will go below 290 before the results however once the results are out expect big jumps.
appreciate your response mate. i do believe vod is more in touch with their customers than other operators, key example being the new reward scheme for their users through their app.
Short term i am not sure, but sooner or later i expect to see fruits of their past investments.
brought at the close for 149.5. was waiting for it to go to 146 but it never touched that and was trying to enter 150s band. believe it will manage that next week and believe in upcoming positive news.
What about you guys? Do you think the report will be any good or do you expect it to send it down to the 125 mark that a couple of brokers are expecting.
honestly i thought it wouldn't go below 3p but it seems like it will easily. so do i take a 20% loss and move on or for some reason hope that shareholders are not on the cuffs of getting screwed.
honestly i have left. after reading the update i was not impressed, i would have expected better result especially after all the media attention it received.
i am still in some retail stocks, but even those seem to be a risk to much for me to hold as the whole sector seems to be struggling. this year could be hard to trade as early indications are pointing towards a negative global economy.
started the year nicely with steady daily gains. hopefully with more positive retail news and a brexit deal that won't harm the businesses more than the what they already have, maybe this is the year where the SP of SPD recovers.
the report will tell us about how good trading was during/around christmas, and not how profitable the company is. That report will be published later in the year and hopefully by then the company will be valued a lot higher than what it is right now.
i have faith in the company and expect the reports to be more posative than expected. So i have just invested another 500 right now at a price of 5.24
honestly i can see the price dropping even below 5p before the trading update but it can also rise above 6p, but one thing is for sure that this stock will move a lot from now till trading update, so there is no point monitoring it too much.
