WOODIE,
Thank's for the info,I was not aware joe grimmond is still a board member
(Having read the AFX I presumed joe grimmond was no longer a board member).

Vgood thread,
keep up the good work.

wow, have you seen shares mag today.
States that for year 2005 WDNY are on for 3m profit which equates to a current pe of just 6.....yes 6 for this company.

Even a lowly manufacturer like this should trade over 10, so we are looking for a share price of about 80p/100p minimum & that is without any new contracts.

buy em boys, they may not be this cheao for long.
Expect IC have more positive news tomorrow.

waiting for ic comments today will they backtrack from sell advice a few weeks ago when share price went up 60%in one day wait for more info on contract bit late if you sold on there advice just shows even in ic mag they can get timing wrong.cheers woodie

NICE TO SEE WDNY GIVEN A NICE WRITE UP IN TODAYS SHARES MAG,REASON FOR TODAYS RISE.CHEERS WOODIE

nice rise today up 7% so far cant find reason?anybody know.cheers woodie

I think it's the fact that people are just realising that they could put their money in this stock, forget it for 12 months or so, come back & they should be double todays price.
Excellent yield of 6% as well. Don't see many stocks on the market like this.

time to post more info as it has been quite for a month just as posted on this board widney releases rns statement re 3 new contracts at time of post up 11% on day also hit 52 week high.cheers woodie

about time this pup back in eye of traders up again today in a falling market nothing has changed since my last post re 52week high same today fresh 52 week high set today.agm statement due thurs looks like more good news awaits.cheers woodie

as i dont get investors chronicle can someone post why they have a buy on stock,your help reqd cheers woodie

woodie, I have not seen the article either, allegedly one of its main tips, but stole some info from 'the other side':

(Title:)

WIDNEY (WDNY)
A new management team has been doing great things, and although the shares have prospered, they still offer plenty of value

The IC's key points are:

Bull Points
Impressive track record
Strong management team
Attractive market niche
Good dividend yield

Bear Points
Belcot division is weak
"Belcot Tool and Die... accounts for 5% of sales and is Widney's smallest division... faces tough competition overseas."
High Gearing (157%) "

not much to go by but explains fridays small price spurt. I still regard WDNY as one of the most reliable stocks in my portfolio based purely on 18month performance.
tau.

tau sorry for delay in thanking you for info,looks like the same info as when they tipped them last year.cheers woodie

results due on thursday. Recent RNS suggests they are in line with expectations, will be interesting to see if they exceed these.

nice set of results divi up 200% looks good for full year still good value.cheers woodie
