If Hunt the runt goes easy on us tomorrow then we could hit the 90p this week.

Me, been averaging down since my first tranche a few months ago at over £20, got over 4k shares now and the divi payment is huge at todays price, even if it's halved still a great % so I'm here for the foreseeable. GLA

We're already back in the FTSE 100 and have been for about a month!

Did we make the cut off after todays fall?

2121? I can't afford to wait that long... Upwards from here though for BP.

Todays figures better than I expected and I'm very happy with the divi payment, I was expecting that too be slashed. Its going to be a tough year for everyone but looks like igr are setting out their stall to combat this...

I just topped up here using half of my isa allowance for the year. I'm hoping that the trading update won't be too severe and only a short term problem and also that the divi is not cancelled/suspended in its entirety. Heres hoping.

Yes anon3, I was lucky enough to accumulate IGR over many years after working for them for 24 years, my average price is 45p and I once had nearly 3 times my current holding, how I wish I still had that amount ??. I think we'll get back on track within a year or two so no panic on my part. Good luck to you.

I was hoping for an 11p total divi this year which would have been about £6k for me but likewise I can't see me selling anymore until at least 2022.

So we're getting the well overdue results at the end of the month along with a TU, a bad idea in my eyes, we'll probably get a good set of results for last year then the dreaded covid-19 update which is bound to be unfavourable and allow IG a reason/excuse to attack the dividend like so many other companies. All my own opinions. GL

A nice end to the week and more to come Monday going by the closing trades in the £5.70s. Have you any idea of when the results are due anon3, it was first half of June last year but can't find any info on this years due date. Cheers

anon3, I was thinking pretty much the same thing, liontrust bought approx 5 million shares costing circa £27 million pounds yet no price movement! Unless they're adding more in the near future so price is being held for that purpose! Either way it's a nice confidence boost for IGR. Year end trading statement due within the next week.

It would be nice if if was the closing price mick-b but we'll probably open down 18p on Monday.
Maybe we'll reach those heights next week if Tuesdays results are as expected.

Anyone know when Alfa results are next due?
Can't find any info anywhere!
Many thanks

In a an analyst report published on Tuesday morning, professional analysts at Canaccord Genuity initiated coverage on shares of Ig Design Group (LON:IGR). The firm set a “Buy” rating with GBX 800.00, giving 35.14% to target.

All wrapped up

This is the most wonderful time of year for greetings card and gift wrapping company IG Design Group (LSE: IGR). This AIM-listed £450m company has a large global reach, with operations in the Americas, Europe and Australia. Its products now retail in more than 200,000 stores across 80 countries and it is expanding through acquisition.

It has also been one of the most exciting stocks of the last five years, up an incredible 850% over that time, yet hasn’t attracted the investor excitement you might expect given its soaraway growth. I wrote about this small-cap 12-bagger earlier this year, noting that it has even managed to defy the retail slowdown affecting bricks and mortar retailers on the stricken UK high street.

Christmas on the cards

The group recently announced a reported 23% rise in revenue to £205m, driven by organic growth of 4% and the acquisition of Impact Innovations Inc in the US, while underlying profit before tax jumped an impressive 76% to £18.5m.

Unsurprisingly it isn’t cheap, currently trading at 21.6 times forward earnings, but it isn’t that expensive given such strong growth, with earnings forecast to rise 13% and 17% over the next two years. You even get a small yield, currently a forecast 1.5%, with cover of 1.3x, but this stock is all about the growth. I’m hoping IG will shine at Christmas, and for years to come.
