How come Dark isn't listed as a ftse250 constituent yet I looked on the lse and hargreaves lansdown ftse250 lists and darktrace isn't on either yet.
New press release today. Darktrace now member of MISA

Nice to see a close above 600p again. Hopefully another strong finish tomorrow for the weekend
If I'm reading the share news correctly we need to find a way to pump the shares up to 850p by next Tuesday to get into the ftse 100. If not will have to settle for the ftse250
Do any of you post on other forums like redditt seems like you might get more traction/larger audience.
Is the 18th of August the cut off for index inclusion?
Sold at a discount though of 620p a share hopefully we don't get a massive gap down today. Could be a solid buying opportunity to top up though if that's the case.
They seem to post a new article on darktrace nearly every day at the moment seems like they want the price down for some reason. I wonder why. They don't seem to post about other companies as often.
The HP Autonomy and Mike Lynch issue was the main reason big US banks and many investors avoided darktrace and was the main reason for the Conservative float. The forced sale of Mike Lynches holding although initially would seem like a bad thing is actually the best thing for DARK moving forward and will light a fire under the SP as its the main thing holding it back. It's also highly doubtful there will be any money laundering charges brought against dark its just something they have to mention in ipo documents as a risk for legal reasons so they don't get sued by investors later on. I also believe extradition is very unlikely due to how the US refused to extradite Harry dunns killer so will be un-likely to get approval from the home secretary.
People that are worried about the recent ups and downs. This stock trades like a high growth tech stock not like most UK shares which barely move. If you want some perspective look at the chart since the ipo. Cheapest retail money got in was around 330 so up 100% plus since then got to have some taking profits here and there. Also dark has a relatively small market cap so easy to push around for a few big traders. Look at how companies like crowdstrike, cloudflare and twilio e.c.t trade they regularly have moves of 5% plus a day like a big chunk of the high growth stocks on the NASDAQ. Its nearly impossible to predict tops and bottoms so best thing to do if you are confident in the company is to buy and hold.
Motley fool really seem to be trying to get the price down a bit. All the articles they put out are generally coming from a negative point of view. Think they want the price down to the 300/400s again as they are upset they missed the chance to fill their bags.
Dark as really acting like a high growth tech stock at the moment. I used to invest in safe boomer stocks like Aviva and L&G and really cared about dividends but I realised these are better for once you have a large chunk of capital amd are ready to live off the income. I didn't really get into these type of stocks till the pandemic hit and I invested in US companies like cloudflare, twilio and crowdstrike As I am still reasonably young (under 30) I can take the volatility. Wouldn't be surprised to see a bit of a Pull back soon though but I'm a HODL sort of guy these days after realised trading is a mugs game.
Did not expect such a jump today. Up over 100% now super thrilled with this stock. The only sad thing is my investing account has and average price of 339 instead of 330 due to that being the price when I moved my holding into my isa. On the plus side no tax to pay. ??
Anyone think now earnings are out there could be a motley fool pump. They have been on the sidelines in the last few articles now update is out they could turn bullish. They can't not comment as its one of the top risers in the lse over the last few months.
Could be traders loading up in anticipation on big earnings. Or someone has an inside scoop on the trading update.
Nice to see we broke 500p today a week ago I was praying for 400p. I think this will keep pumping till earning release. If sentinalone ipo goes well could also see a boost.
Bee in here since ipo seems to trade like a US tech share with generally bigger % moves up or down. At the moment had good upwards momentum even though its volatile. A little more exciting than your regular ftse stock.
The LSE needs a proper tech index similar to the nasdaq would be much better than having the ftse 250 or ftse 100
Anyone else think Aviva should be more Conservative on the cash handouts and invest in growing the business especially in the bulk annuities/pensions de risking sector which is more capital intensive as that's where L&G seems to dominate and are rated a bit higher.
As an aside I noticed they have an online only insurance on comparison sites earlier which is very competitive for me anyway (cheapest option for me on confused.com) so I have now gone back to aviva for car insurance. They always shunned comparison sites before. But this could be something that helps boost sales quite a bit I feel like most people use comparison sites these days.
Hi,
I guess earnings will be out some time in July as year end is June as far as I can see. Hopefully due to the recent hight profile cyber attacks there could be some strong earnings as Companies take cyber spending more seriously. I think most investors are waiting for this earnings report to see if the growth story is still there.
Anyone know when the FTSE reshuffle is. I know its in June but can't seem to find a date. Should see darktrace in the ftse250.
