Not just another coffee shop chain - this one is a brand leader and is only trading in Eastern/Central Europe (i.e. the countries recently admitted to the EU destined for substantial business growth).

I would like a little breakout but not to large or it will pull back on profit takers. steady growth over the next few months would be much more relaxing IMO.

overgrowth - 05 Feb 2005 21:03 - 103 of 2037

stockpick - check out the Coffeeheaven website.

Click on "Latest News" on the menu then on "Research notes & Brokers" - there's a really good broker's analysts note - bang up to date - released in Jan 2005!

shareshark - 05 Feb 2005 22:06 - 104 of 2037

Cheers overgrowth - makes great reading!

shareshark - 07 Feb 2005 09:33 - 105 of 2037

Looks ready for a strong breakout when we get the trading update later this month - MM`s know this and want cheap stock IMO.

snaylor - 07 Feb 2005 10:13 - 106 of 2037

no large trades but all buys today. Price ticking up slightly now

shareshark - 07 Feb 2005 10:20 - 107 of 2037

When the update arrives COH will be pushing towards 2p IMO

AdieH - 07 Feb 2005 10:39 - 108 of 2037

Forecast on iii says target price of 2.5p, just topped up...

dclinton - 07 Feb 2005 10:47 - 109 of 2037

Ticking up but only by virtue of the MMs widening the spread to 11%! The bid has remained unchanged at 1.15p

snaylor - 07 Feb 2005 10:53 - 110 of 2037

my broker has upped the quote provided to buy to 1.29 from 1.19 this morning, that has to be a good sign.

dclinton - 07 Feb 2005 11:05 - 111 of 2037

Yes, but would you buy with an 11.5% spread (as it stands now)? The effect is to slow buying down as the immediate risk becomes much higher. We really need to see the bid come up along with the offer so that we could potentially realise some of the gain.

snaylor - 07 Feb 2005 11:19 - 112 of 2037

Doug, true, a good point, but i'm confident. 11% is too large and shouldn't stay too long.

Cheers

dclinton - 07 Feb 2005 11:21 - 113 of 2037

Much better now :-)

snaylor - 07 Feb 2005 11:23 - 114 of 2037

A very good day already, wish I had more spare funds this morning

stockdog - 07 Feb 2005 11:25 - 115 of 2037

Go the COH - 1.30p!

overgrowth - 07 Feb 2005 19:48 - 116 of 2037

A good day today folks - it looks as though Coffeeheaven are starting to be recognised as a company destined to offer superior medium and long term growth.

AdieH - 07 Feb 2005 20:07 - 117 of 2037

Yes the broker comment helped, shares should be at .25p according to the brokers note I saw on Ample, topped up today...

overgrowth - 07 Feb 2005 20:08 - 118 of 2037

AdieH - 2.5p I think you mean lol!

overgrowth - 08 Feb 2005 20:37 - 119 of 2037

A bit of profit taking after reaching new highs - trading statement is expected during this month and expected to be good - plenty more upside to come :-)

shareshark - 10 Feb 2005 11:06 - 120 of 2037

Trading statement released today:

http://www.uk-wire.com/cgi-bin/articles/200502100700104297I.html

I interpret the "comfortable" in the expectations statement to be Richard Worthington keeping a bit up his sleeve for later in the year - maybe a later "better than expected" statement to come later in the year IMO - especially if the currency advantages remain good.

All the rest of the statement is very positive long term - COH will be a great investment IMO.
