What no profit - how do you value a share like this? I need to see a working company to understand it’s prospects. At the moment it runs on shareholder funds raised in the last placing. In my experience high tec, cutting edge companies like this can roll along for years before they make good money. I’ve followed and invested in Iqe for at leat 25 years and only now during the last 5 years is it making money, even so it’s share price is all over the place - but at least I can look at it’s P/E ratio or it’s PEG and compare it to other profitable growing companies. Vrs looks like a punt to me and at it’s present price I’ve definitely missed the boat. Good luck to you - if it comes down a lot or starts to make good money and the odds look better I’ll join you
Good news - Iqe has yet again proved the doubters wrong. It was always going to take time to fill a key position especially when the post was vacated so unexpectedly and abruptly. What I like about Iqe is that it seems to be sure footed and clever in its relentless pursuit of growth and profit. I hope the Short Sellers take note and leave them to get on with it - I hope also that Iqe clients take comfort and see Iqe as a serious and reliable supplier to be trusted for world leading advice and supply for their cutting edge technology in Material science.
• Citi raises its Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) price target from $230 to $265 (18% upside) expecting next year’s EPS to beat consensus. Analyst Jim Suva raises his FY19 EPS estimate from $13.92 to $14.43 (consensus: $13.61.) • Suva: “We increase our financial model primarily due to higher ASPs & stronger gross margins given the consumer preference for higher memory configurations of iPhones coupled with the new falling memory prices.” • Suva says memory represents 10% to 15% of component costs in the base iPhone models but higher storage phones that cost the consumer $100 more only costs Apple an added $20. • The analyst’s checks suggest strong demand for the iPhone XS/Max with customers opting for higher memory iPhone configurations, which matches the early checks from analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. • Previously: Ming-Chi Kuo: iPhone XS Max has 4x sales of XS (Sept. 24)
There seems to be a concerted effort to sully the reputation of IQE with innuendo and lies. Read the accounts, half year statement and any other announcements made by the IQE. Read the same stuff that their clients put out - Lumentum, Apple, AMS and even Finisar. Take with a pinch of salt everything else - there is a lot of money riding on this being kept low - enough money to creat fake news and persuade journalists to bend their stories. You can affect the share price by simply buying and selling this share. If you have a lot of money you can change its price over a prolonged period and eventually change the whole markets perception of a company. I liken it to the difference between the weather and the climate. If you change the weather for a prolonged period there comes a point at which perception changes and it’s not weather any more it’s the climate has changed. In the end value will win out but if you don’t have the patience or you need to sell you will lose to these people. I think it is market manipulation and should be banned.
Again. No Volume but large change in price - are they looking for stoplosses? Why can’t iqe keep us in the picture and let us know how we are doing on a more regular basis. I suppose as there has been no trading update we must still be on track to meet Iqe sales expectations, or at least not materially different. That has got to be good news because they were expecting sales to increase this year between 40 and 50% from last year.
Ah back to filling your boots territory. I recon Iqe are working 24/7 on several continents to satisfy vcsel demand. No one else has the know how and the capacity and the readiness to do it. This is high margin 40% or so and going to increase with each new machine brought in over the coming months. Forget the charts for they have been created by hedge funds and short sellers manipulating the market. This has cost them a lot and they don’t make a profit until they buy back the borrowed shares they have sold. If you don’t have to sell - I ask you why would you?

Last bit If these writers held any other job and made a mistake of this magnitude, over and over, they would have been fired as incompetent. They kept forwarding a story quarter after quarter as it was proven wrong publicly over and over, maintaining all the while that they had some special insight or access into the industry they they clearly didn't have at all. This year, as Apple gears up to unleash its second generation of iPhone X models, the hyper-scrutiny of its unit mix and the contrived supply chain mumbo-jumbo of analysts and these disgraced journalists should have even less impact on the perception of Apple's business. It increasingly doesn't matter what Android proponents argue and insist. Apple has never had more market power and clout to deliver the future of technology. And Android has never been more boring.
Taken from gritty on advfn board Seems like all the fake journalism, news & rumours is what has been helping the hedge Funds manipulate the SP. however we PI are going to have the last laugh as the proof Is in the pudding with the Trio . Here's a clip from applinsider Killing the phony story of iPhone X pricing and demand Over the past year, specific, high-profile journalists at the Wall Street Journal, Nikkei, and Bloomberg composed multiple and parallel false stories that claimed that Apple's new iPhone X didn't offer enough new "innovations" to interest buyers and was far too expensive to sell in meaningful quantities —the total opposite of reality. They put their reputations on the line to rush out a story that might have been true, if their logic had been founded in reality rather than just invented conjecture. These weren't simply analysts spewing out made-up ideas hoping that some of their thoughts would end up looking intelligent after the fact. These were reporters who falsely portrayed their writing as factual, professional journalism—reporting, not invention. To the surprise of many, they were totally wrong, as iPhone X left the gate outselling Apple's other, more affordable models (including the similarly fast and wirelessly-functional iPhone 8 and the much cheaper, year old iPhone 7, as well as the cheapest-ever iPhone SE). However, after the initial holiday quarter, writers at those papers continued printing stories that suggested they'd done some research or observation into iPhone X sales and found problems with ongoing demand. They also created reports suggesting evidence that Apple was slashing production of iPhone X, creating waves they claimed to have observed among Apple's suppliers. But, those reports were false. And they were repeated anyway. They were not accidents or mistakes. They were false, and they appeared malicious, not mistaken. Rather than reporting what was actually happening based on facts and research, these establishments were simply concocting tales of what they hoped —or perhaps guessed —might happen based on nonsense and whispers. None of these people acknowledged these false reports. The reporting of the Wall Street Journal, Nikkei, and Bloomberg can no longer be trusted to be accurate, impartial and honest, particularly when they attack Apple and report on what they imply are facts ascertained from Apple's supply chain. They could not have been more wrong, and have still not explained why they published garbage-whimsy as factual data sourced from people supposedly "familiar" with what was actually happening. If these writers held any other job and made a mistake of this magnitude, over and over, they would have been fired as incompetent. They kept forwarding a story quarter after quarter as it was proven wrong publicly over and over, maintaining all the while that they had some special insight or access into the industry
Priced to go mass market. There are a lot of people out there with old iPhones waiting for this more affordable phone - I am hopefull big sales here and all with Face ID and iqe kit aboard. Share price should in a world without market manipulators reflect this and go much higher
