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.

Nitefly - 19 Sep 2003 09:53 - 17 of 2406

haha, maybe we do influence the punters and mm's?

I'm amazed how sentiment and news can change so quickly. Not that it should even have been down in the first place!!!

Best of luck to all.

Heard from another BB from someone who knows her. Apparently a very sharp cookie and the fact that shes on board is a very good sign. Judging by the move upwards today the city agrees.

jules99 - 19 Sep 2003 10:44 - 20 of 2406

I knew her really well, Went to school together..was the only Girl to acheive 3 STRAIGHT A's and a 'Blue Peter' Badge on the same as her Pet Hamster's Birthday ...

Ask yourselves - How many people who could ever hope to acheive that...???

I know what your thinking...Mr David Blane...sorry I mean 'David Blane'...

Sadly your wrong....ONLY Jane Tozer could...!

So start buying folks...lol...

It's Friday...POETS day...

ta.

As I said a while ago after i bought at 13p and saw a small decline prior to results, i thought results would not change price much. However, they have slipped quite a bit even since then down to around 10p!

The price cant get much lower as i believe this is a company that will give good returns if you hold onto them for a period of time - for next 3 to 6 months anyway.

Through short/medium term, I believe price will get to 15 to 20p and will increase to at least 30p eventually.

What does everyone else think as even Shares magazine etc are tipping them and that was when they were 12.625p!

Connection between Petrol and RTD...?

Help me if I missed this one...wind up?

chrissie - 21 Sep 2003 22:16 - 24 of 2406

Forget it!

scotinvestor - 22 Sep 2003 16:21 - 26 of 2406

I see RTD has gone below 10p!!!!

How low can they go before someone sees sense and 20p to 30p is reached.

dalrymp - 22 Sep 2003 18:45 - 27 of 2406

We just need some good news. The next contract win will send the price
north. 30p at least by Christmas!!!

Nitefly - 23 Sep 2003 09:14 - 28 of 2406

It's a question of do you want to make nothing each week and then plenty by christmas or do you want to pull out/take a loss and maybe be luck enough to make something with another company?

I personally would rather earn a bucket full at christmas!

After all my calculations, if I had just left alone my first deal alone I would be a very rich trader by now :/ - Instead, i went in/came out etc... and made a tenth of what I could have made!

RTD is the same!

Best of luck all.

dalrymp - 23 Sep 2003 17:36 - 29 of 2406

Nitefly


Over 1,000,000 buys in the last 20 mins. Good news could be on the way??????

Charts show a reverse trend - 30p by mid December!!!!!!!!!!

jules99 - 23 Sep 2003 22:41 - 30 of 2406

been out all day...RTD did i miss some action??

It's funny, the other day YOOMEDIA went up to something mad..from 20p to 55p......RTD should order the same drink...2 large ones...!

Patience is going to reward all holders...only a matter of time.

planttec - 24 Sep 2003 06:26 - 31 of 2406

Jules
second that, Its not going to be a one day wonder such as yoo, look at that now, falling away very fast. Need to hold these for a while to see the return.

dalrymp - 24 Sep 2003 17:50 - 32 of 2406

Everyone keeps saying that this stock is oversold. If so, how come the institutions haven't come back in? - I wish they would!!!!!!

scotinvestor - 24 Sep 2003 21:25 - 33 of 2406

Apart from RTD suddenly expressing upfront better financial figures for the future or a new contract signed, what else is required to get this share price up.

Everyone on this including me has bought into them and went on about how great they are and how much they go up by. But they haven't!!!

What's going on?

Getting exasperated by it all

ricardopage - 25 Sep 2003 00:45 - 34 of 2406

Although their last results were good, they (RTD) are a little cautious regarding the next set due out soon (see last para below taken from Yahoo).

"The payments market continues to grow and develop and the move to on-line payment transactions continues to accelerate," it said.
Retail said good business from its petrol-sales card in Australia helped the figures. The company has also signed a contract with Canadian group, PaySystems, which provides point of sale card facilities to retailers, for it use its ebitguard system. It chould mean over a million checks per month will be carried out by ebitguard.
Because the first half included a number of one-gains Retail says it does not expect the second half total to exceed the first half's adjusted profit."

(the spelling mistakes are Yahoo's)
I'm sitting on mine and took the chance to top up at 9.25


dalrymp - 25 Sep 2003 16:49 - 35 of 2406

Recent news from opec (re cutting oil production) and the Australian dollar and economy getting stronger all the time, should help RTD second half profits, shouldn't it. As the company mentioned in interims that higher oil prices and stronger Aussie dollar was one reason for the Autralian aquisition doing so well. wdik Please correct me if I'm wrong.

chrissie - 25 Sep 2003 17:11 - 36 of 2406

dalrymp

I found this on another BB...

Note that the Aussie dollar continues to strengthen against sterling (16% since this time last year) and the price of oil has spiked sharply upwards - both positive factors when calculating RTD profits.
