Had enough of the BS - it’ll probably go up now you watch!

Kim it’s pretty obvious really when you think about. This share is up and down like a tarts knickers so many are in and out like….., well you get the analogy 😂

Sometimes when I’m in I want the share to go up and other times when I’m out and looking to get back in I want the share to go down. I’ve made a fair bit on trading this one up and down.

However that means very little with thg the market seems to be completely random when it reacts to any rns

29/01/2024 story.

WTF?

I’m waiting for an opportunity to get out here - hoping for 80p then I’m dumping the lot.

Price is odd today seems a big tree shake?

How do I manage to pick the shares that the market reacts insanely to?

I don’t see how 290 is “too high” it’s now sitting at around 7.7 p/e and profits/revenue are increasing. If anything it’s too low at 290. Marginal missing of expectations doesn’t warrant this drop. Oh well no point waiting for the market to be rational.

I would expect it to recover some today as people buy back in for the dividend but nothing is predictable these days. I think it’s an overreaction tbh 17% drop for “marginal” missing of expectations? It’s still profitable and the business is still going in the right direction. Odd. Seems to be a lot of panicky holders and that in itself makes me think twice.

Might be a good idea to look at the share in the portfolio with agm’s or trading updates coming up and think about reducing before they come

Jinxed it

Yes I wish I’d bought at the bottom instead of the top - oh well as long as it gets back I suppose

Price is finally moving today anyone know what’s going on? Does someone know something we don’t yet know?

Yes I did say it was at its lowest level of shorts, because it was! It now isn’t it has now increased. What’s inconsistent about that? I’ve been a holder on and off for 2 years I lost a lot initially but got a lot back by dipping in and out. I’m not claiming to have always got it right but I have managed mainly to buy low and sell higher. When the shorts start to increase I tend to get out for a while and come back if the price drops. Doesn’t always work but usually does and I’ve got a lot back this way.

Hmmm. I sold all mine this morning. The massive rise in short interest has made me nervous. I’ll buy again when it drops. If it doesn’t and I miss out hey ho but I’ve lost a lot of money with this share in the past ignoring the short interest. Someone knows something.

Shorts increasing as is the doom and gloom chat on here.

The short positions held on THG are currently at the lowest they have been for 2 years. Its time to blame someone else.

It was included in the Stockopedia NAPS portfolio so clearly the market makers have spotted an opportunity to rip people off by manufacturing a ridiculous spread

Depends how you look at it I suppose. if what you are saying is true then they are buying at current, in your words, deflated prices because it is going to go up significantly. That seems like an odd reason to avoid this share.
