Yep, i don't see any reason for such a big drop. I got in at 320p. Interesting morning thus far

This work nonsense really gets in the way ;-)

Just flogged them at 2288. Made me £500 after buying yesterday (I'm not a big player) think I managed to sell at 7.5% on the day. For anyone holding longer you'll do well i reckon but I like to trade rather than invest. Very best of luck

I (only an opinion) don't take much notice of broker ratings as the damn things have been so wrong in the past! Not questioning your opinion though, and we're both in the same canoe, albeit with difference paddles! These are strangly oversold. I suspect some bot's have gone mad or a bit of shorting has happened. Good luck

Yeah, I got in at around about the bottom ie 14% down. If we get a few % back I'll cash in. I'm no expert but reading the update it's just a case of less profit than expected. The company is still sound so my gut reaction (and I underline it's only that) is this is oversold by 5% minimum. Good luck.

"Hikma, down 14.5 percent and heading for its worst one-day percentage drop in 8 years, led the market lower after saying that its full-year core operating profit from its generics unit would be hurt by delayed approvals of new products and higher-than-expected costs." Sounds like a rapidly rising share price hit it's first bad news. Fingers crossed we might get a recovery this afternoon

This is all going swimmingly

God no. If theres one share thats likely to go up 10% at the moment its a miner thats dropped 10% the previous day.

Almost a 5% bounce (very welcome) so far this afternoon. Would that back up your shorters theory?

Could have been money to be made there

I couldn't understand the dividend wording. Seems it will pay at some point.

Big man making the share price move :-)

That you doing all the buying? (big money)

Yeah its over the market cap so they must be pretty sure they can insert value!

Sorry, what does "full" ask mean? Cheers

Well, you seem to be riding out the issues their market is causing stocks around the world!

I was in this for a while. Got stung with the loss of the Singapore licence. I do agree your logic and if I had £10,000 spare I'd probably stick it it. I just think timescale-wise it will be 2 (ish) years before you would see a return which I'm not patient enough for.

Does it give you a feeling of power driving the price up by yourself? ;-)

I see your point but I wonder how long it will take to pay the loan back. If it eats up the profits then the shares are hardly attractive. The loan is likely to be a long term plan. That said, the markets are an opinion poll and if enough agree with you then you're sorted. Very best of luck to you.

After my initial post I decided this was a non-buy (I'm just dealing in a fantasy terms at the moment). Reasoning was I noticed the Broker rating change gave the price a few % boost. That would swallow up most of the gains you could expect from all the but the most amazing trading update. Just my thoughts, which happened, for once, to be somewhat correct!
