RTD - Why? (RTD)     

Nitefly - 15 Sep 2003 10:55

Why are we again at 10.5p bid?

It doesn't add up...

Good Results + Strong buying pre results + Christmas online buying soon = Price drop

Then again some companies that have debt for equity hanging in the balance, poor results and bankruptcy around the corner and they go up!

Why sell now at a loss?

Wont that be a kick in the teeth when we see 13.5p 14p again!

Best of luck all.

Drifting away again on very low volumes today folks - how annoying it is to watch RTD on a daily basis. It appears that only a major revenue enhancing contract announcement will launch us out of this "traders channel" at the moment.

Or maybe that's what the people waiting in the wings want us to think, a few more sellers and that will bring RTD down to a very tasty level for them indeed. These clued up characters tend to wait until the dust settles after a sudden surge in price from tipping in RHPS (or equivalent).

Friday tomorrow, the traditional Friday rise should occur and be further fortified as soon as the investors mentioned above think that the bottom has been hit.

I think I'm a bit addicted to this share and fear I have no self control...

Very interesting post from jimibt on advfn:

"i guess we're saying (tho' not yet in the public domain) that RTD stand more than a GOOD chance of entering the TM100. in which case, there will be a steady accumulation over the next few weeks, taking us up to the 55M 'current boundary' equating to 24.5p per share. is this in your opinion likely to be on the minds of fund managers in the end of week meetings tomorrow??

whichever way, i think the current mid of 19.25p is a pretty stagerring opportunity for we PI's to pass up on but as ever, i'm sure we'll all lament the passing of the 20's in due course (and of course, in true PI style, with a hint of 'miff').

happy to continue my accumulation at these levels until my target of 40p in early october."

mournin all.......... now back down to 18.25p and still loosin suport

blakester - 09 Jul 2004 10:20 - 1326 of 2406

to be honest overgrowth, I doubt this share will ever surface above 30p

overgrowth - 09 Jul 2004 18:21 - 1327 of 2406

Blakester - Could be true, plenty of good news and still the price keeps wasting away.

The problem is, I've seen this happen before and you can bet your bottom dollar that as soon as you get hacked off with it all and sell, unexpected news appears (very often on the same or next day), the price is suddenly past 30p and you're left staring in disbelief.

Douggie - 09 Jul 2004 18:59 - 1328 of 2406

and that is exactly what keeps us here hanging on with our tongue hanging out...fodder for the better informed to take advantage of us, guess the smart ones are in and out here taking 5% or more a time getting a good return on the same cash, while I sit on my hands darn't make a mouve, in the meantime I'll settle fo 30p next week please

Fred1new - 09 Jul 2004 23:11 - 1329 of 2406

Douggie just wonderin don't you ever go in and out?

Douggie - 12 Jul 2004 07:58 - 1330 of 2406

NO

blakester - 12 Jul 2004 20:13 - 1331 of 2406

This company needs to be taken private and quickly. A management buy out is exactly whats needed (at least for me to get my money back)as the heady days of decent returns are not going to be found during all this sideways trading of the main indices.

There's no MM manipulation here, only lacklustre interest...

P.S. Does anyone know why hoodlessbrennan.com always shows a different price to everyone else?

Fred1new - 12 Jul 2004 22:55 - 1332 of 2406

My feelings about Management Buyouts is that they are generally below the real value of the company and that management is doing itself a favour not the shareholder who may have been funding the R+D of the company for a long time. The shareholders who bought in later at low prices may profit, but many longterm holders are cheated.

Fundamentalist - 13 Jul 2004 09:42 - 1333 of 2406

the last thing i want is a management buyout - they would take this private at about 25p, when in a few years time this will be worth substantially more than that imho. If id wanted 25p i could have had that earlier in the year!!!

blakester - 13 Jul 2004 21:40 - 1334 of 2406

If I only had....

Douggie - 13 Jul 2004 21:55 - 1335 of 2406

Me too

overgrowth - 13 Jul 2004 23:28 - 1336 of 2406

Comments from wombled on iii, to remind us that we really should still be quite bullish about RTD, despite the silly season market malaise setting in.

"I expect these shares to start moving from Aug onwards. As it stands RTD will enter tech100 index, first time since feb 01. This will initiate tracker fund purchases.

Secondly, interims out on 6th sept, RTD always has a good run leading up to results. Increased by over 30% during the lead up to interims in 2003."



Fred1new - 13 Jul 2004 23:34 - 1337 of 2406

I blamed Douggie for not going on holiday for the down movement in this share.







And all the other shares I am holding which at the moment seem to be going south for the summer!

Douggie - 14 Jul 2004 08:14 - 1338 of 2406

Fred1new...........so do I

so are mine :o\

Oakapples142 - 14 Jul 2004 08:43 - 1339 of 2406


You are not alone. My only hope for riches seems to be PDX where Directors keep buying shares

Douggie - 14 Jul 2004 19:18 - 1340 of 2406
