That’s a great clip; well worth watching! Very interesting perspective but SO true....also, my apologies to those that might find my entry below a little deflating; but I only write what I ‘think’ will happen going forwards, which trust me, is a far cry from what I ‘hope’ will happen! Most contributors on these boards only write what they ‘hope’ will happen; which for me at least, isn’t terribly helpful! Let’s face it, we all ‘hope’ that this will reach £7 by Christmas! ATB. :)

The company desperately needs to turn a profit, as it would then be a lot easier to ‘value’. However, I for one, do not see that happening in 2022; I feel that it’s just too big a hill to overcome this year (just click on the “Dark Fundamentals” button above, to see what I mean!). Hopefully, they will. But I suspect that they won’t. So, in answer to your question, expect the usual RNS detailing an increase in customer base and revenues, but not much else. Certainly not enough of a change in fortune to reverse the current downward trend (so far) in 2022. Geo-politics will not help in any way with further falls to come on the main Indexes globally. It’s going to be very hard to make money out of equities for sure. If you do, then cash it in and don’t get greedy, because it can be wiped out in a day in a Bear Market such as this! Grim prognosis, I appreciate, but it is what it is. The Bank of England has let us down terribly; as we have sleep-walked into this. They should have taken decisive action early last year, not now, when the horse has already well and truly bolted. They have shown total weakness and a total lack of leadership. Now we all suffer! . . . ATB

That was meant to read Amers - not Amersham!!

Amersham I would wait, even if that meant paying a bit more. We need a total 'trend' reversal here and that is not going to happen any time soon in my opinion. It's going to be a very tough year for the UK and Equities will follow that path. All the best either way....

People were saying that at at £3.50p. You'd be mad to buy these at present.

There we have it. Sub £3...it was just a matter of time.

This was always going to struggle given where we are in the world. It’s a Bear Market so it’s very hard to win. In fact, I said back in May not to spend any of your new ISA money, as you would be paying too much for your shares and instantly lose a chunk of it. How accurate was that! I have not spent 1p, let alone £1 as we have plenty more pain to come this year. The world is a mess basically. The BoE totally bottled it yesterday, with their Mickey Mouse .25% increase. We need a rise of at least 1% to stand any chance in 2022. The tough headwinds will comfortably wipe out any gains, so I will not be investing myself. It can and likely will, get worse, I’m afraid, as the usual sluggish Summer season also approaches. Sit on your cash folks and don’t be tempted to invest or average down, until the autumn at the earliest! As I said, a £4 finish to 2022 will be a very good result for this company. . . .

The lowest this has ever been. It's going to take some magical results and a profit, to turn the market on to this company. Nobody is convinced of either; so DT will have to do it the hard way. It's going to be a very long year! My best guess is between £3.90p and £4.35p by the end of 2022. This I repeat again, will not be a 'get rich quick scheme' - but it beats Crypto I guess.

Steviewonder77 - yes and no really. Many here couldn't give a toss about the company. They are here simply to make a profit; as such (and very understandably), they care about, and monitor, the share price. If being honest, EVERYONE, watches the share price; it's only when it is under-performing as much as DT is, that folk say "don't focus on the share price". If it was 'flying' (as it once was) then that was the ONLY thing that was being discussed here! This has a very long way to go before it holds £5+ I strongly suspect.....like late 2023>>>+

It won't be in profit that quickly, hence my £5 'at best' Target Price for 2022. It certainly won't be £4.50p by the next results either; there are simply far too many headwinds going on for that kind of elevation (and that's excluding the constant insider selling too which is very unhelpful); much patience will be required from all holders here. . . .

Personally, I think Peel Hunt and JP Morgan have been spot on. I think this will be sub £4 for months, not weeks. Berenberg should be ashamed of themselves, with their ridiculous £10 target price. That was a one-off, driven by deluded PI's chasing it. I will be very happy if we reach £5 by January 2023 - but it certainly won't be easy, as the Market doesn't favour Tech stocks like DT. Dissappointing of course, but better to be very realistic in a major Bear Market such as this (and it will last through to 2023 too), or you will lose even more money! I still have not spent a penny in this years' ISA; it is a way, way too uncertain world for that . . . . ATB

It's not a 'knee-jerk' reaction; irrespective of the latest (in a very long line of bad news) negative news. This was always going to go sub £3.50p - as mentioned last week. Do NOT bet your pension on this company, as it is far from being a certain share. £5 by year end, at best, as it's not worth any more than that. BUT it will need to be + + + news, all the way - which we all know, won't happen! ATB

This is exactly what I was talking about earlier this week. We are firmly in a new Bear Market. It’s why folk should stop trying to put out £7, £8, £9+ etc. “Guesses”- as this share is highly unlikely to reach those numbers; irrespective of quarterly results. This is not only a Bear Market, but it is also a market that is in (very unhelpfully for us!) an ‘anti-tech’ cycle, and will, in my opinion, remain so until 2023, at best. Year end close here? For me £5 would be pretty good. Might not sound much, but it would be +25% from today’s close. Some will be best served by reducing their crazy guesswork valuations, as it just ain’t gonna happen! It’s a ‘Market’ thing, not a ‘DT’ thing. This article from today’s Daily Mail money section, is a worthy read. . . . ATB

We have entered, unsurprisingly, a global Bear Market. As a result you need to (in my opinion), (a) keep your ISA powder dry (I.e. don’t be spending it any time soon) and (b) massively lower your expectations for 2022. DT will be lucky if it closes at £5 this year. I would certainly not be “topping up” or buying, as you are 100% guaranteed, at this point, to be paying too much. DT will, I suspect, drop to £3.50p, as the headwinds are far worse now, than they were back in February. Do not expect to make much money, if any at all, this year; in fact probably budget to lose money. Make no mistake, everything will suffer, from Equities, to Bonds, to Gilts, to Crypto. Sit on your cash and wait until the autumn or you’ll almost certainly regret it. Apart from that. All is well in the world :)

. . . yet more internal selling. This time it is the CEO and the CTO off-loading, nearly 1 million shares between them. No wonder this share isn't going anywhere. In fact I can't see this closing above a maximum of £5.50p this year; just far too much selling by Senior Directors and Institutions. Always a very bad look for a non-profit making, zero Dividend paying, Company. . .

“Lloyds added 1.2 per cent, or 0.54p, to 46.31p after analysts at Bank of America upgraded the stock to ‘buy’ from ‘neutral’ and upped their target price to 57p from 46p. Lloyds also won price hikes from UBS, RBC and Deutsche Bank”. . . .

It's not possible to 'Subscribe' Im afraid, Charles. You have to have an Equities / Unit Trusts Portfolio with Barclays, or be a Private Banker with them. Given how painfully tedious this share is, I've pretty much stopped looking these days . . . .

Charles, you really do talk utter nonsense. You're wasted. You should write Fiction for a living as your imagination really is quite something. . . Good Grief.

Exactly! We don't want a larger free-float than we already have! It's ridiculous, as the share price does not stand a chance; as witnessed so far this year. Horrible performance since floatation day (silly fake rise to £10 excluded, as it wasn't a 'real' rise. More an excitable feeding frenzy 'in anticipation') . . ATB

What a disaster RNS. This company lurches from one share diluting event to the next. With that many shares yet to be dumped onto the market, it's going to be a very poor year for holders - most of whom are well under water. Don't listen to the £6/£7 brigade here, as it just ain't going to happen in 2022. Sad fact I'm afraid, but I said this many months ago. Well done JPM and PH you nailed it. Many PI's will sell now. Berenberg are ramping fraudsters, so don't be fooled by them or other rampers here (mostly now gone, having done their dirty work)!
