Thanks Bruce. Will research and investigate these. No rush to invest this money. Dixon CP has bounced back off around £1.60, so may have missed out on these. Cheers!
I have some money to invest in my ISA today. Despite recent rises putting me nicely up on Tesco I would dearly love to buy more at what I consider to be a bargain price at the moment. I need to steer clear though as my portfolio is still too heavily invested in this share but good luck to those buying in. Royal Mail, BP and possibly a punt on Dixons ****hone is where my ££ will be going.
....if it drops to £1.50 or so. Still a very profitable business. Sorry for those who got caught out, sit tight and keep the faith. It'll bounce back....but may take some time.
I came to broadly the same conclusion as the fool article last night (a first!) so have set a target to buy in at 7.50. Unlikely to get that today as another 5% plus drop is unlikely, but a chance next week I reckon. My portfolio is just a tad risk heavy at the moment (too much Oil!) and my next purchase should arguably be something big and boring from the FTSE 100 but lets see what happens with RPC in the coming days....I may be swayed!

-10.5% !
sitting on my hands for the moment down 9.5% and falling like a stone. I remember Yell PLC and their acquisitions which forced eventually forced the company under back in the day....going to wait for resistance and will look to buy after GE Thurs or Fri
Stonking set of results and good divi, this has been on my radar for some time. I don't really share the concerns about the company being acquisition heavy. Anybody have any other negative info I may be missing? I just don't see reason for decline in price today. Do i buy now or do I wait to see if Corbyn is in power on Friday morning and buy for 6.00? ;@)
This business is worth (many times) less than zero. I've known this for ages. Read what has happened at Thomson Local (again predicted my yours truly) and that will be the next stage for Hibu. All in my (peerlessly accurate) opinion, of course!
Went into admin today. Around 300 staff told to leave the building. Had to make their own way home as Company Cars were taken back there and then..... Handful retained. Hibu next??
A long day at work (for someone else no doubt - call centre?) with big losses in Yell to pour petrol on the flames of your miserable existance. Think I'd prefer Jeremy Kyle to be honest. GL for the future.
I'll simplify your rant for you. You gambled and lost. Surely you would have invested in a safer stock if your money was that important to you? No Jeremy Kyle for me, now a successful self employed businessman. Made great money (big 5 figures) on Yell shorting it all the way down (after losing 6k on longs around 2010). I Called Yell (Hibu) spot on for 2.5 years...if you'd read and followed my posyts during thisperiod you too would have made ££££....you didn't, so stop getting into a lather, accept your mistakes and come back better and stronger next time.
Really sorry you lost money. Your fault though, high risk share, you gambled you lost ....always on the cards for years...some people saw it some people didn't Dust yourself off and move on.
OK Your money your choice to waste it. Good Luck....think you are going to need it.
Do you really think that when a board of directors says "little or no value" they mean you may get something back?? It's not a case of gloating...it is just crystal clear to me that if you continue to pursue this you will lose even more money....if you lose out on a share then kick yourself, learn and move on....this horse died a long time ago...stop flogging it!
Brilliant post on Weds at 18.16...spot on It was so good an imbecile want to meet you for a fight to sort it out! Some people just don't want to learn....sharedealing is a skill it takes time and patience (and the ability to not invest in companies like Yell / Hibu)
I have calmly and patiently explained that this company was going down the pan. I'm a former employee with decades of experience in this exact marketplace. I was shouted down by the cries of the people who have an almost pathalogical inability to see the bleedin' obvious. When the D4E was announced (exactly as I said it would be around 18 months ago) I thought this would be the end of it....but no people are now looking to persue the board through the courts in a frankly ludicrous attempt to seek some form of compensation. Are you mad? DO NOT throw any more good money after bad on this....the board may have been hopeless but they haven't misled anybody at any stage here...the writing has been on the wall for years....you will fail in your attempt to seek further redress (IMO) If you lost money here it is 100% your OWN FAULT no one elses....when you develop enough self awareness to realise this you can then go on to make money from stocks. GL ALL!
...don't chuck good money after bad in paying Solicitors to pursue Hibu...the Shareholders group doing this are doomed to failure in my PERSONAL OPINION (which has been spot on for many years!)
...just a company that made very bad decisions that has resulted in creditors taking over...not in the slightest bit controversial or unexpected. Those of you that held on need to shine a light on yourselves, have the self awareness to realise you have made a bad investment decision, dust yourselves off and move on to pastures new. If you've lost money here there is no on but to blame but yourselves...sorry that's just the way it is!
Hope you are well. I posted I depth about Microsoft at the time. Thomson Local had a deal to sell Microsoft products and take a small margin it didn't help Thomson and it certainly wouldn't have made a jot of difference to the trajectory YELL was taking. Next stage for Yell will be sell off of various parts of the company (IMO) and it will run as smaller entities under new ownerships. Employees of YELL need to have a long hard look at what has happened over at Thomson Local (re contracts) in the last few weeks and concentrate on finding new employment ASAP All in my personal opinion of course!
