have another read through the half yearly, and within it:"A significant market opportunity exists for continued profitable growth and we look forward to a second half of continued positive momentum." and director bought about £3m in June, is that the actions of a person who thinks there are problems ?

yep same

meant chairman not ceo

to be expected: from the ceo in the interims....sold some in June too "I have been fortunate, not only recently to have celebrated my seventieth birthday but also, to have seen The Character Group develop and grow since 1991 into a major player within the toy industry. As shareholders will be aware, I have been reducing my shareholding in the Company, on an ad hoc basis, over the past few years but, in order to prepare for my eventual retirement from all executive duties, I have decided that a programme for an orderly sale of the majority of my remaining shareholding should now be undertaken, with the goal of completing that programme within the next 12 to 24 months"

officially October, but we got a trading update 5th August last year

yes, but sold a third at 3.62 so not all fantastic news, although I made an additional profitable trade on that bit too :) will be watching next trading update like a hawk although I am expecting good news, but always aware just in case, still looks undervalued at this price. loving the look of RCN now revisited, annualised rev of £100m and could be a bid proposition imo. I didnt buy originally as I noticed Henderson selling and I see they're still offloading at 10%, hasnt stopped the sp rising though, looking for an entry apologies for o/t all

seen this before on another good share I did well out of (staf), it feels as though the price is driven down to support before good results. If you look at staf 1000-730 (dropped to about 700 that day) before results and look whats happened since. I was puzzled but held on thankfully

yes i am, woodford gives me added confidence

everything always is, doesnt always mean it'll get there tho

ah you in here as well then, we must stop meeting like this :)

£2.49 first buy, still think more to come but not going to count my chickens as market has a habit of kicking your butt when least expected. Haven't seen Jolly around here from recollection, might be a sell signal if he appears !! (just kidding Jolly)

am in peg too, great minds think alike ! thought about buying acso first thing, wish I had now !

looks like you're having a good day with acso too !

well done spikey, I sold my final tranche at 1350 (more fool me), can't complain since my intial buy was around 600 with averages up along the way, will watch with interest (and fondness)

Shan, ah good to see you sniffing aroung here, gives me even more confidence !

any thoughts on those share based payment charges ? not come across those before, are they one offs ?

so pretty much what I said below then. I got in a top up at 330, shame I didnt wait for 320 but hey ho at least I didnt do it at 360

not sure if its a good example but I was looking again at Powerflute (POWR) on my watchlist (but now ditched), they've had an unresolved vat issue with the Finnish tax authorties for over 3 years, didn't prevent their sp taking off, but might give an indication of how long these issues can take to resolve

well they have only sold about 1/3 of their holding so still hold about 52m, and wont be selling them for at least 90 days if at all. I guess they're just reducing their stake at an all time high

yes topped up again, just as well I cancelled my stop loss as it would have got taken out for no reason, didnt see that coming but its a long termer anyway
