but CPC is primarily for students, not us oldies!

I understand, AceofClubs, where you are coming from, but take a different view. This SP is underpinned by the buyback at present. If they are ignored by the market, the co will buy them ever more cheaply for now. Then there will be nice full year figures with a decent divi hike and more to come. Sure it is not exciting but it is likely to be safe and rewarding. What's not to like?

....seems to be the next time we are scheduled to get an update. As I recall that is 6mths before our debt is due for repayment.
You would have thought that the co would have rescheduled early if they could while interest rates were rock bottom. My guess is that either we are expecting healthy growth in net profits (unlikely) or sale of some IP or even an agreed bid. Would have to be at least double this sp.

No idea why. The pubs are doing fine. Any ideas?

...from the crash in AZN.

None of our investments are yet 'dead' or 'worthless'. The market just does not think much of them right now. Depends on your timescale and risk-tolerance!

....and this SP stays down. Seen it all before. Stick around for the firework display. Just not sure when it will happen.

.....may be better than zilch but it won't keep up our SP long!

What did you expect for third QUARTER figures? Green stamps? These are excellent figtures and just rrequire a little patience.

....continued increase after figures tomorrow with real possibility of biggere divis and possibly a special.

Good Luck then. I believe in the maxim 'if it cannot be explained simply so that I understand, I don't touch'.
I suppose if you were to come unstuck together with the rest of the world, you could always change your moniker to 'my last farthing'!

Only consolation is that the co will hoover up at some point.

... for me but up today against the market, so maybe a few more think like me.

...to get something right.

Very helpful and I have today invested here, after further research of my own. Did look at BBBiotech but thought it too concentrated. This looks in a temporary dip and, all other things being =, should resume better path in 2022, or possibly in anticipation. Decent dividend as well. Only 2.5% of portfolio. Definitely safer than AIM rubbish.

...to very little movement in SP until co buyback is finished.

....in Dubai!!!!
Is that so shareholders cannot shout at them?
if you are a holder and are working over there, please try and get there. A report of their answers to questions would be interesting, but I expect nothing.

Decided to hold. Massive divi cover and more to come with recovery from pandemic. Definitely raising divi and possibly giving a special all IMHO.

Proved wrong so far but believe these have jumped far ahead of events. Do want to buy still but much nearer 49p.

Unusual and cannot think why. Oh yes, I bought more! My life story! Well, I am sticking to my guns here. This is a little IT goldmine and U.S is well aware of its potential. I envisage a small net profit this year and the distinct possibility of an agreed buyout in due course. Of course this is only my opinion so please DYOR before committing yourself and don't risk money you cannot afford to lose. It is not without risk.
