The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring Jeremy Skillington, CEO of Poolbeg Pharma has just been released. Listen here.
Johnny, I wasn't picking out one individual on here - I was making a general comment that no poster on here THIS YEAR apparently went to the AGM - so no wonder we are all asking questions!!! Nice to know though that you are not too busy to post on here :-)
To be fair, although some of the posters here have been to the AGM in the past - I don't think any went this year (perhaps one).. my excuse is that I always have my audit at this time of year so could not travel - but I presume some on here are based in/near London and could attend? I know questions were asked/sent in advance of the AGM (RKB) but did any get answered? My point - in short - is that can anyone of us really complain when we don't go to the AGM? (I have been to various AGMs in the past - and always find out a little more of future plans that what those not attending will know - so it is worth it!)
To answer your question - I made so much money on Next and then Helphire years ago - a few car crashes since have not stopped me looking forward very much to 55 early retirement - why you are obsessed about me and continue to talk about other investments yet do not post on them is beyond me - it be a shame if I have to filter you as well!
All investments carry a degree of risk. Whether you want to call it gambling is up to you. With Debenhams I only invested small amounts and what I could afford to lose. Btw if you do have to obsess about me - at least get my user name right!!
Wasting out time? FFS cash is down to £130k. I don't care how low the price is, you have to have more money than sense to be loading up ATM before any news.. which could easily be suspension as the cash RUNS OUT
I trust your post was a joke, Mannnan :-) TBH I really don't believe BB comments 99% of the time will make anyone buy or sell a share - except perhaps when there's a sudden spike and everyone wants in - no one here will be trading MOS due to what I am saying or indeed our bullish new poster GL elsewhere
Jezz Darren - pot, kettle, black. LSE is a discussion website and if someone believes x investment is worth buying into - they are entitled to say so - even if at a later date they are proven wrong! For example - you are banging on about the merits of ASOS at the moment - is there a reason? Are you trying to convince everyone on there that the shares are worth x amount? Are YOU benefitting from ramping ASOS via share price appreciation? Think about it - you are doing on ASOS what Pearls did on here - trying to say why you are invested there are what you share price target is. (for what it's worth - ASOS probably did so into oversold mode and was worth a short term buy - MY OPINION ONLY)
Strange I thought he had sold out and moved on .. obviously not - I am starting to wonder if he/she has/had some connection to the company as it sometimes comes across as almost personal... I think we all agree more news will be welcomed soon!
Next has done well for me over the years.. remember getting in around 10p back in the late 1980s (after starting work for a competitor) ... did sell too soon but reinvested a few times and back in this week following this news - target £67 GL
Amazed that literally no one posts here - it's a massive company - and outperforming the retail sector - perhaps people only like posting on the higher risk type investments out there? At least Next is showing that there is still hope for other retailers if they get their overheads under control and get their ranges right
LOL attacking one poster who posts 1.6 times per day in a month ... er... this share has been suspended for several YEARS yet the thread is still active !!! (not sure how you can still consider yourself INVESTED in a share you cannot trade btw)... so perhaps ask WHY the thread is so active - obviously one of two reasons 1) investors can't led go and are being led up the garden path by hints of pending news or 2) this time it's legit and a relisting is on the cards. Personally its interesting to look in now and then - as an ex investor here - but not every single day (!!) when there's literally nothing new to discuss atm
Don't get too excited just yet. They have had short term loans before which they have extended so I don't read too much into this although news is due on several fronts gl
Well I was thinking £1.50 today so happy to admit to being way out - it helps that MA holds over 50% of the share issue - we are still looking at a 10% drop and significant drop over the last six months - I guess you need to compare the share price performance to the rest of the sector..
Yes egg - 17.4 million of us out there who believe democracy is as/more important that the economy perhaps growing a little slower outside the political super state than in it - but this isn't the place for discussing Brexit. The question really is a) why the massive tax bill in the first place? b) how many years does it relate to? c) is it connected to SPD or HoF or another acquisition and d) will it be paid!?
The Telegraph tonight states that the auditor was only told on the day! (Friday?)
So that auditor can't ask for a provision if they don't know about it!!!
Poker chips, agree - my point being that the results had been delayed several times Inc 3-4 times yesterday .. so cannot see how a tax demand can be deemed a surprise....
Sorry if already pointed out, but if the tax demand was only known on Thursday, it doesn't explain why the results had already been delayed two weeks. Either they knew about it before Thursday or the HoF issue had initially causes the delay. As for Monday, I reckon £1.50 but who knows!
