We would love to hear your thoughts about our site and services, please take our survey here.
Agreed Rich62. Soooo undervalued and I'm sure others on here noticed the article on the BBC website last week of the increase in the use of pawnbrokers. A sad story but a positive one for those invested here.
Someone recently posted on a chat thread that the trend for tourists is moving towards phone and card payments. I've given up on foreign travel so have no idea which is the most convenient method of buying and paying for goods and services abroad these days. Anyone on here got a take on that - will tourists continue to buy foreign currency or do Visa and Mastercard supply or their needs? (Incidentally, in Kenya you don't need cash. Even the poor folk use virtual cash through Mpesa on their phones. They're way ahead of us :)
Yesterday's UTs were apparently Otus selling a small percentage of its holdings. Otherwise a sea of blue.
Yes Stuart, you're right. When I checked before posting I read what I thought was there :) Common mistake. I sold out this week with a £250 profit which chuffed me after years of misery with WSG. I'm expecting a drop now to the 250p mark where a gap needs to be filled and I hope to jump in again with a much bigger pot. This looks a company with a great future and with a meaty dividend I'd like to see it as a pretty safe place to invest longer term.
Following todays RNS Liberium have upped their TP to 290p. The market still has woken up to the potential here with a PER of only 10.
Thanks for posting Scoob. V encouraging. 280p fair-value target PLUS handsome dividend. What's not to like?
Expect the sp to rocket in the coming month. Why? I've just sold my last tranche after 10 fruitless years watching it freefall from 90p to today's miserable price, averaging down over the years as I got sucked into one positive RNS after another. All the best to those long-termers who still hold out hope. Knowing my luck on here you should be quids in soon now that I'm gone.
Ian B!! Good to see one of the "ancient" names on here. Not many of us "Foolers Fools" left on here now. I've halved my holding, but didn't dare pull out entirely, just in the vain hope SOMETHING might happen. I always gave PF the benefit of the doubt, but that has dwindled to almost nothing now. Next year Rodders? Hmm. Doubt it.
Hi Bilgepump. Don't be too harsh on them. Every Christmas we expect Santa to visit . . . but he never does. Some of us have been stuck in here from the 90p days and in all that time Peter Fowler has NEVER delivered on his promises. That's why they are so cynical. They don't want the price to go down so they can get more in. We all want the price to go UP - big time - so we can get OUT. Have a blessed Christmas, but don't expect that blessing to come from WSG.
Good ol' Virgin. I love that they do this out of the goodness of their heart and it doesn't cost the customer a penny.
Oh yes, and we needed funding to sell two piddling little X-ray machines (one of "our larger projects"). Mark Hughes has caught the Fooler bug.
I've just remembered that Fowl-up had a contract in his drawer for an African airport that just needed to sort out an internal problem (nothing to do with security, ahem) and we would be flying. That was long before covid raised its ugly head. Anyone remember that one? I know Gibbo will :)
CrystalBallBroke: Yep. Tried to sell through AJ Bell but can't without resorting to phone trade for some reason. So, back in the bottom drawer. Iran will never happen so our only (slim) hope is that the Saudi bigwig (cant remember his name or royal connection) blackmailing one of his countrymen into signing a huge long-term deal. But the silence from that direction has been deafening.
Good to see you still chipping in Foxy. It's been a long trail for some of us still left on here. I always try to see the best in people and for years made the observation that WSG was the unluckiest company in the world. But I have to admit now that Peter Fowler has mental health issues. A Walter Mitty character, he sincerely believes that his company is a world leader in its field and that, despite the headwinds of dealing in the two-thirds world, he is doing a grand job. Either that or ... (libel laws restrain me from completing). Next year Rodders ... we'll be down to 0.5p
