Thanks for the posts realitee, I feel a little better now. But as an earlier poster said, What would really help, is a news release from the company in response to the nosedive this week. If all is good, we need some reassurance. Good luck all longs - I can't bear to sell just now.

This really is a strange company. The better the news, the further the drop in price. Well at least Baker, Astley and Davis should have a great Christmas with the £141 million I helped contribute to them in October.

Good write up in yesterday's daily mail http://www.dailymail.co.uk/money/article-3342010/How-Peppa-Pig-conquered-Christmas-multi-millionaires-three-friends-Middlesex-Poly.html

Don't know if the drop was related to the latest Hunger Games movie opening but I got a jolt when I saw the share price just now.

It's also falling when I least expected it. Nevermind, I have time to wait.

Nice jump up today.

I'm watching Insidious Chapter 3 just now. The ETO logo at the start of the film is pretty smart. Hopefully they will be making plenty profit with the upcoming Hunger games movie too.

Although happy to be getting something back, I too am disappointed by the amount the are expected to return in December. It feels like we are getting short changed.

I thought their remarks sounded like a shorter too. I don't think the pig has lost any appeal in the UK judging by the amount of product in stores and TV AirPlay.

I can wait a little longer but my target is 400p. Hopefully they will be making lots of money from merchandising the Pig in new territories

...All the way up to 400p if you please.

That is quite a clear concise article you found. I think the company should do well if the merchandising is successful in the U.S. And China. I'd be interested to know if anyone has seen any merchandise on the shelves in these countries.

Thanks Bill, that helps. I'm going to buy the allotment and keep them a while, hopefully that plan will pay off down the line.

Does anyone else hold the shares in a Halifax IWeb account? I'm wondering what happens there, whether I will be written to and asked to load the account with cash so that I can buy the New Shares. I assume that when you buy the new shares, you don't have to wait a certain period before you can sell them? I'm not planning to sell them for a while anyways. So many questions....

I'm reading my way through the prospectus. If I take up my rights then I have to stump up the cash for the new common shares....this stops my holding from being diluted...and my broker will write and advise me. Ok. I think the extra £53.6 M is going into the EOne bank account. I wish I had sold when it was over £3.60. This is way too complicated.

I'm a little lost here. As a shareholder, if I don't buy New Common shares then my existing ones will be diluted. But if I do buy New Common shares, I get them at a discount.... How exactly? Will EOne be writing to me or do I have to contact them? And am I being more or less forced to buy more otherwise my current shares will plummet? Can anyone shed some light

This SP has gone totally in the wrong direction. I guess I'll just have to hang on to my shares for a few years until the £ exchange rate weakens.

That sounds like great news. Hopefully will stop the SP downwards drift and boost it up above 300

Up 3.63% today. Part of a slow climb back after that director cashed in his shares causing a nosedive. it's like snakes and ladders. ATB

Well I wasn't expecting that. I hope it picks up again.
