I would agree that long term all looks positive. Big worry is that the uk markets as a whole are showing very little sign of improving. No real confidence from big players in FTSE 100 companies America flying which is amazing given the crap they are in hopefully confidence will come back soon.

markets moving ahead ok but Glencore after a positive start heading south. Any thoughts on what's causing the blip

that could explain things. If the stock is being heavily shorted it is never good. The board have been slow to close bad locations. Ashss been mentioned here in the past there is a reason MKS has lost over 80% of its value in 5 years. A lot seems to be riding on Ocado. I get the feeling this is their last throw of the dice

I agree with the positive comnents and would agree that the news all looks good but the Share Price keeps going down and no natter what happens during the day it tanks in afternoon trading. Why is there simply no support for MKS and what will it take for the shares to move forward

Any thoughts on why for the past month despite market uncertainty card factory has barely moved off 50p but now is a about to lose 20% in 2 days. Have I missed any news as not sure why the sell off

My point about stop losses is you asked why i didn't sell earlier. I thought the buy in price was cheap and they would rebound and never imagined that years later they would be in this position. I simply wonder if those who bought in at 1.10 had stop losses and closed out or simply bought more when the price dropped still believing they are cheap. I don't short sell. I don't wish for MKS to fail. Just don't know what itsgoing to take for this to turn around as the momentum for years has now been downward

The share hit £5.998 in Jan 2015.
Hence 5 years in the price is under £1.00 and heading south every day against the hopes of those on the site. Just one way traffic. Tesco was 2.20 in 2015 and is still 2.20. Other supermarkets within range. Mks down over 80%. Clorhing range has dragged the company down for 6 years but like a dog with a bone they won't let it go. Love to understand the logic as to why MKS has outperformed peers for all the wrong reasons. Will be down another 4% today the way its heading and the excuse can't be because the markets are falling. The markets rallied yesterday and MKS only just managed blue after trading. I guess those with 5% stop margins must have closed out by now. No probably holding on and averaging because they feel the price is lie.thats what was said at 5,4,3,2,1. I am holding a lot of shares in MKS and hope for success. All I know is there appears to be no end in sight to the decline and the current management aren't up to the task,hence the position marks is in

No intention of taking a short position. Don't believe in hoping a company will fail. My point is that there have been no green shoots on years and the SP has not even looked like taking off apart from a recent rise to 1.17 where is has just dropped continuously since. Not sure what the garbage is. Love to have clarification on what I stated. All factual and not good reading but please share.

he has surely had long enough. 85% decline in Shareholder value in 5 years. No previous CEO experience and clearly there is 0 confidence in his plans with a relentless vote of no confidence by shareholders ditching stock.
I thought he did a good presentation at the AGM but he surely is part of the problem as he simply hashadno success at all. Good at selling the dream but not good at deliveing results that really matter. He of course would not stand down as he still has around 96p to wipe off the value of the company but he is getting there fast

MKS have admitted it will take years to see results of the deal so if that's all we gave to look forward to as well as no dividends and year on year share price decline I guess there is no stopping the short sellers for now killing off the company slowly but surely. What is it going to take to kick start the SPand give investors any confidence to hold or buy and not to ditch. One small gain in the last 11 days is worrying. Did anyone see the sentiment results after the chairman's report. Interesting to see how many small investors still have confidence in the future of mks

Does this mean if it can't rise when the DOW is up 450 points and the FTSE up 2% what can we expect tomorrow if both are down dramatically. Seems like no natter what there is only falls.

starting to wonder what it will take to move MKS
FTSE and DOW flying, upgrade by Credit Suisse.
Good presentation from the chairman at the AGM
Next and Ocado both doing well. But despite what seems positive the market is not buying MKS as being a bargain. What is it going to take. Unfortunately the market doesn't share optimism over the Ocado deal. The same old AM rise and PM dive. Just don't get it

Any thoughts on wht no support cannot be found. FTSE doing well but Mks about to fall below daily low and again under 1.00. It just seems that any gains are short lived at the moment

Ocado has a market csp of almost 8 times that of MKS. They could buy out MKS with change. Something needs to happen and soon to MKS as support cannot be found and just like the last 2 weeks good start and then just falls. Hopefully today it may be different. If no 90s with the next stop and short selles will keep winning.

Having watched both videos I do feel more confident in MKS but I am still concerned that shareholder value and the Sp does not reflect their sentiment . Lets see what next week brings.

Any company that has shown better than expected results has seen a good SP increase on the day of reporting. MKS Falls. Clearly the big players are not impressed. Let's hope it rallys later. Why.

something is needed to provide some support. Just floating at present waiting for direction. I had hoped the news of sparks may have helped but it seems regardless of news it just struggles to gain any ground. What will it take to move??

probably right. They consider themselves a tech company. Let's just hope MKS can recover to not be an attractive takeover offer. The board has done work to do

for 5 years I have made the same comment about being basement level and watched the SP decimated from from £6 to now under £1
Painful watching its decline from a strong FTSE 100 stock to an average FTSE 250 daily the price just drops further. Wonder if Ocado with a market cap of over £15b just buys up MKS with a market cap of less than £2b. The way MKS share price is going it would be easy pickings and the current strategy is yielding no results for shareholders. Thoughts??

When I purchased these for my pension in 2915 at £6 a share the same comnents were being made. The long game. Now £1 a share and same comment. I am s fan of MKS but they simply have lost their way. I am sure they may bounce back somewhat but for now just a day by day fall. Good luck and remain optimistic.
