What region was the Lidl built in? I would expect Lidl to start trying to expand more to try to catch up to Aldi a bit, but Aldi's success has proved biggest in the NW. If STY can get it right and take on more Lidls, it would be a coup..........but they have to get it right because cut price supermarkets are very demanding clients.

My first big mover in months. Nice to see.

Seems I won't need to make that apology.

I totally agree. If it's a tip from someone you know well, or someone who you are certain has proven themselves..........for sure it's reasonable to buy on it. My point though is that I would FAR rather miss out on a bit of a profit than jump in to a loss. And since I DON'T know the person, and suspect many who might buy in on the ramping don't either, I see it as a bad buy until proven wrong. You may say that's a silly mentality, but I have done very nicely with my balance of cautiousness and carefull buying/rading

You will of course notice I do not say this IS the case. Merely that it has the appearance of a pump and dump. It could be the case it's a legitimate rumour. In which case, great, but you'd never catch me buying in on a rumour cast on a BB.............WAY too easy to get caught. This might be the one in twenty that's legitimate. Bloody unlikely though! And if you'll buy this, you'll buy the other nineteen too.

If you buy in early and sell before the bubble bursts...............you're either (a) Very clued into what's going on (b) Very lucky.

If you'd point me to the drivel part, I'd retract it. I really think pointing out a possible (in fact, bloody probable) bear trap to newer investors would come under the heading of being decent. Something you probably won't understand I'll grant you. Lets just see if the rise is sustained, shall we? it will argue for itself. Regardless though, only a foold would buy into this unless they: (a) Knew the share themselves, assuming the rise to be legitimate (b) Were in on the game. This reeks of a small group hiking a share. Pump and dump. Fleecing the unwary. You know.............wa**ers.

Lol, another bear trap? I do note that although 19% up, it is only 10% up from earlier on the ask, not the bid, as the spread has incresed from 2% to 10%. In other words, those buying in on the ramp are buying on the lovely big numbers which in fact are quicte small...............and those who promoted the share will be out with a nice 10%. I'll apologise if the rise continues tomorrow.........but you wouldn't catch me buying this! I'd rather miss a little profit than risk being locked into a dog.

Don't hold your breath. Yes, there is often a dead cat bounce. But this is a dead cat splat.

All well and good. I hope they are viable and trading well into the future. but since they are putting a motion to De List...........not with my bloody money!

To buy this at the moment is nothing short of lunacy. Even further, I'd say you'd need a pathological dislike of having money. Of course if things pan out there's a lovely upside. But if they do not............and they probably won't, you'll just lose the lot. I for one am glad to be out of here a little while back with only a very small loss on my second trade.

I work for a company which is in direct competition with a branch of McInerney. We are tiny compared to them, they should have pretty much wiped the floor with us. They haven't. We win over 70% of the work from the particular client. This shows in my opinion a complete lack of focus on their part. I have also worked for two other arms of McInerney previously and have not been impressed on either occasion.

I don't short, not that I have anything against it, I just do straight simple buy/sell trading, nothing else. No, I bought a very small amount of these (£100) for no reason other than to be a member of the 'turd burglars' I fully expect to lose it, but hey, it's a bit of fun!

I do wish you would all stop complaining about the consolidation. This is our turd, have faith in it. I know it's difficult to adjust to owning a 28p share, but worry not, in weeks it will be worth 0.004p again. Have faith.

I'm rich! I'm rich!!!!!!

I thought it was against Islamic law to make dosh out of lending money? Doesn't bode well for shareholders surely?

No mate, I am NW region only. We build anything out of Neston and Middleton.

Been in these for around 5 months now! only £900 initial investment though. I tend to only buy small amounts of this kind of thing. I have done well out my mines/oils etc that I bought though!

I havent bothered because I'm a coward. I have a decent job which pays well, and i always said no matter how well I did out of this I would not give up the job. I do most of my research on Google and try not to be as obsessed as I was back end of last year, front end of this one. It was taking over life! So I didn't go for a L2 account or anything fancier than meat and potatoes trading. It's what I do best. New job is good............but not enjoying it as much to be honest!! have to watch every bloody word I say to anyone now. Especially the client! Have to say I was happier before when I had time on my hands!

Hiya mate. Hope you're well. Question for you..........do you know a good site which easily allows you to search by sector? I used to have it on one of my share dealing accounts but it's gone
