Depends if you want a med/long term investment and not an immediate disappointment partridge... what are the odds on your horse...

cynic - 11 Jul 2007 13:33 - 1761 of 2037

probably better than on COH and the pain will not be so prolonged .... lol!

AdieH - 11 Jul 2007 13:42 - 1762 of 2037

Depends what your entry level is... for those that got free shares from the demerger from Bakery service they will be smiling from ear to ear... The brokers note puts a target price of 66p... You do the maths... Regards.

cynic - 11 Jul 2007 13:56 - 1763 of 2037

so if you buy today, that's the equivalent of about 7/4 on the horse at Wincanton!

partridge - 11 Jul 2007 14:16 - 1764 of 2037

Odds in the Times quoted as 7:1 against. About IMO on a par with COH, but either (or both) could come good. Personally, I would favour the chances of the horse, (at Kempton, by the way) but good luck to any holders of the shares.

David10B - 11 Jul 2007 15:13 - 1765 of 2037

Well it looks as if I m not so dumb after all and COH is a loss maker.

I note its down again today and that cant be a good sign.

Does not say much for all the so called positive posters here with their hidden adgendas to ramp.

IAN Please note my comments.

The unfounded ramping of hopelss loss makers should be made illegal, as it must cause a lot of grief to many

beemer2 - 11 Jul 2007 15:42 - 1766 of 2037

Just back from a quick break in the capital.

Could'nt help but notice that MLR is down once more...and after all the ramping on numorous BB's by our resident numpty.

THAT CAN'T BE A VERY GOOD SIGN....LOL.

David10B - 11 Jul 2007 15:51 - 1767 of 2037

Ok beemer as you can see I am trying to bring some sense and order here, so please tell us what is your defination of ramping?

beemer2 - 11 Jul 2007 16:08 - 1768 of 2037

I don't usually reply to numpty's...but if you insist

My "definition of ramping" is when for instance COH was down to low 30's and oversold...I rightly predicted that it would return to the 40's and you being a numpty said back in June that would not and in the process bet me 10K, but seeing you are obviously still learning the ways of stockmarket it would have been like taking candy from a baby.

Therefore may I suggest that you stop being a prat and act your age as I understand you are well over the age of sixty.

David10B - 11 Jul 2007 16:14 - 1769 of 2037

Thats not ramping and neither was it oversold in the low 30s.

All things being equally it should not have risen --however it did and I called it wrong, but built into the rise was false bid speculation---you wont see that again.

However you have not answered my question what is your undertanding of ramping please?

I am now hell bent on getting a valuation on COH that is correct.

David10B - 11 Jul 2007 16:52 - 1770 of 2037

Well gentlemen I must be doing something right.

I have called COH down and today the bid slips into the high 30s, a fall of 1.5p on the day and with a spread of a massive 2p.

I have taken some stick here over this share, however my commitment to fair play and a square deal deal for the private punter remains unfettered.

I believe this share will now continue to slide and it beats the hell of of me how some could even think of it going to a pound.

These BBs are a public platform where we can all come and freely express our views.

Mine may not be popular with the status quo, but I express them in all good faith!

Ultimate Cynic - 11 Jul 2007 21:08 - 1771 of 2037

Aidie, I thought you had sqelched him.
You should stick to your guns else it won`t work. I havn`t a clue what he`s saying and don`t care except for when you respond (or should that be - rise to the bait).
Regards, U.C.

edit:
Aidie, Apologies, I am trying to read this BB on a mobile phone (T-Mobile Web n'Walk) since my main Internet connection is down.
The screen doesn't display the page normally and my response (above) was directed at much earlier posts of yours. However if you still continue to respond to him now then the top paragraph still stands.
STICK TO YOUR GUNS!!
YOU KNOW IT MAKES SENSE.
end edit:

cynic - 11 Jul 2007 21:16 - 1772 of 2037

someone, who shall remain nameless, is clearly on a different planet .... sp not only remains above 40 (not really relevant anyway), but is still holding relatively comfortably above 200 dma ..... holders should be concerned if this level is broken with any impetus, and even more so if 38 is breached where decent support could/should be expected as it is where the 25+50 dma converge

David10B - 11 Jul 2007 21:33 - 1773 of 2037

H Cynic. no still on this one. but perhaps its advfn that has flown to Mars as the last trade there for COH, trade #15, (30.100 shares)shows the bid broke into the 30s.

However please dont fret, I agree with you that if 38p is breached its going down fast to my predicted 30p, perhaps even lower, now that I established it was still loss making after 7 years.

Tommorrow will be a great day please enjoy it.

partridge - 11 Jul 2007 22:11 - 1774 of 2037

Almost doubled the money on Millionpercent (e.w.at 15/2) - maybe that is a good sign for COH holders!

AdieH - 11 Jul 2007 22:32 - 1775 of 2037

DOn't worry UC he is squelched and if he does verbally abuse Ian has said he will be removed... Regards.

AdieH - 11 Jul 2007 22:33 - 1776 of 2037

Well done partridge, any other tips I like to dabble now and again on the horses...

cynic - 12 Jul 2007 07:33 - 1777 of 2037

always said your horse was a better bet that COH .... lol!!

David10B - 12 Jul 2007 09:28 - 1778 of 2037

AdieH I never verbally abuse, you need to reflect.

My only concern here are shares and rip offs, and of course rampings--no more, no less.

The fact is each day I find less and less good knowledge here, with of course the acknowledge exceptions, and I see they marked COH down today on opening.

If as Cynic says it falls through 38p there is serious trouble.

You never did take the time, or courtesy .to answer my findings on the Numis Note-----dont worry though its perfectly understandable.

AdieH - 12 Jul 2007 09:33 - 1779 of 2037

Morning everyone (apart from those that are squelched of course)... so are there any tips today partridge?
