Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
What hasn’t changed: share price 9am Monday and yesterday was hovering around the £2 mark. Same today.
What has changed: Trials now in 20 countries. Production capacity increased. £80m investment in the bank.
I would ignore the Walter Mitty characters on Internet forums.
Look, even if the share price does drop to 175p, that is hardly catastrophic. The share price was 150p last week. Share price will move up and down over the next few days and week. You might get lucky and catch it on a dip or you’ll be left waiting as SP takes off...
Unless you are a day trader, you’ll be looking at where SP will be in 3-6 months minimum (or for serious investors, 12 months time).
Is Punit our resident investment guru now?
For a giggle, have a read of his post history. He often asks the most basic questions.
Has Ladbrokes not opened yet this morning?
Also worth noting yesterday 8.30am we were at £1.99. By 11am we were at £2.20.
Read the RNS minus the placing. The news contained within it is mega.
Now read the same news + give SNG £80m investment. You can see why there is so much excitement.
For a company the size of SNG to have managed to raise £80m and be oversubscribed is an impressive feat by any measure.
The share price last Friday was £1.71. Yesterday morning it was £1.99.
The fact that II’s were willing to fork out £80m at £1.75 says a lot. They haven’t been given a huge discount like some other Covid pharma placings lately.
Also £105k buy above the closing SP
£40k and £10k buys after hours.
Tomorrow likely to be another interesting day.
Just 9 months ago there were rumours of a takeover at 80-100p.
So I can see why for some 33p is a kick in the teeth
Loving all these geniuses who claim to have sold on the spike this morning. Next time let the rest of us know what is about to happen. Your timing is magic.
I call BS...
These boards would be more useful if everyone was honest. You do not need to impress random people on the internet who don't know who you are.
Yes, in April share price went from 60p to 90. Even end of May share price was hovering around 80p.
Just look at share price over last 6 months. Then see why current SP of 80p is not unusual.
For anyone confused by what they are seeing on Google, check sharesmagazine website for BOO trades. It will show the trades registered after close.
Yes, closing price is 235p.
There was a sell of £17k after the bell at 213p, that is what threw Google. But after this sell there was a further sell of £20k at 233p. So closing price is defo either 233 or 235.
BOO share price:
17 July 2017: 221p
16 July 2018: 203p
15 July 2019: 209p
15 July 2020: 212p
It has been stuck at 50p for almost 3 weeks now. I have never seen anything like this.
Huge sells coming through. Yet SP doesn't move.
Slightly unsettling.
But then you also said on Tuesday: "I'll be very surprised if this doesn't touch the 80's today in the first hour or so, or at least today sometime."
Were you surprised?
Will you be surprised again...
I don't visit this board any more. Can't be bothered filtering through post after post of his nonsense.
I'm still invested here. Good luck all.
Looks like there is lots of interest on this forum this weekend. Both for and against. This forum was very quiet a month ago. It is often an indication of what is to come when there is so much chat on a forum in the build up to a big week..
As for the questions re fundamentals and sentiment. Right now the markets are driven by sentiment. Look at Aston Martin, Hammerson, TUI and various others where the fundamentals are not great at all, but the share price has rocketed these past few weeks.
The same could well happen with Card Factory. With the seller now done, and sentiment favouring a big move upwards, in the short term I feel confident I will make a decent return on this. Card Factory hasn't yet had the huge rises that others have seen, this coming week could be the week...
IMO DYOR. Good luck all.
Yeh, it looks like they were struggling to keep up with the huge surge in demand. That is why they have just opened up another warehouse in Wakefield for online orders.
And new website launching in July which is supposed to improve user experience.
A slick new website + warehouse capacity increased is a smart move.
When I searched “greeting card” on Google, Card Factory is the first result after the paid for adverts which appear at the top.
The non-advert search results are based on website traffic volume. So the fact that Card Factory is the first result is encouraging.
On 9 January 2020, the CEO (Karen Hubbard) purchased 10,000 shares at £1.09 each.
On 22 January 2020, the CEO purchased 25,000 shares at 88p each.
I find it reassuring to see CEO owns shares at a price well above where we are currently. She must be sitting on a big paper loss at the moment.
To me if the CEO is willing to buy at 88p+, then I am happy with my 40p average.
Today 10.2 million shares were traded. Huge volume. Seller now out. Next week will be interesting.
