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.

Another positive - main buy recommendation in the well-respected Small Company Share Watch this month.

:o)

Close is bang on the previous resistance point and appeared to bring out some sellers (they may have been buys but dont think so). I believe the TM100 announcement is tonight after market which will hopefully take us clear of the resistance and on to blue sky

Appears that RTD did not enter the TM100 - not sure why - what reaction tomorrow?

Fundy - we still have institutions buying (evidently not just for TM100 inclusion) - looks as though the big guys have seen the online shopping boom coming and are getting in quick.

Anyhow, RTD are next in line to get in the TM100 in January - not long to wait!

I can't see this news having much effect on the shareprice now, there's just too much other good news around.

:o)

Douggie - keep smiling

:o))

another rise today, just keeps ticking along this week. Hopefully will be 30p by end of week

A good summary of bull points from wrinkler on "The Fool", in response to someone eager to sell too early:

"Bull factors are:

1) Substantial rise in the number of internet transactions, saw a report a week or so ago quoting 60% YOY increase in retail transactions online.

2) High petrol prices, likely to remain high for the forseable future.

3) Institutions now buying in heavily, GS recently acquired 10m odd shares.

4) Newly promoted to FTSE Small Cap, with previously mentioned impacts on tracker funds.

5) Recent trading statement quoting earnings likely to be significantly above market estimates.

6) Hit new 12 month high today, so more TA buying likely.

So why on earth would you be selling, even if you have made a decent profit !

The easiest thing to do with stocks like these (As I learned to my cost with SPT and AHT) over the last 12 months, is to sell too early). Much better to let a stock run as long as the bull factors remain in place."

Now that RTD are performing well and the PR cat is well and truly out of the bag, I reckon it's going to be worth holding (and adding on the dips?) for some time to come - they have all the potential of becoming a 1+ company very quickly.

yeah i agree overgrowth.

I'm sure in about 12 to 18 months time this will be at least 1. I predict about 130p.
I think i may hold these for a few years as i'm sure results will be good for 2nd year running and that results the year after will be even better. As i believe oil will be much dearer which helps our fuel card. There are predictions for future oil pricve reaching 80 to 100$ a barrel!!!!!!

scotinvestor - oil's price hikes will be great for RTD, but I think that the jewel in the crown is that they have a solid presence in the Card Not Present security market (internet sales for any newcomers), and that market will run and run :-)

there does seem to be a degree of confidence in this share!

:o)))

what here ??

Morning all

Nice to see people now paying 30p for these!!!!

Comments elsewhere that private investors money is moving from Ashtead into RTD after ashteads results today

This is bum nipping stuff.....29.75p

Ooooooooooooooops done it again.....29.5p :-|

Nice that some of my investments this yr are paying off, Always believed in RTD and still believe they have a good future, maybe time to take some profit on a few though as nothing goes up in a straight line for this long in my experience. One to top up on is OXB, many's share of the year, excellent news flow to come and broker target of 50p short term, excellent value at this price and another I have always believed in. If like holding RTD you are one that is prepared to be patient and stick it out, OXB will reward hansomely, I mean 10 or 20 times, take a look.

bought 20000 few months back expecting it to hit 1, i still beleive in that target price and so far the going is good :) hope to see 50p by march

Tide turning ? x/finger. ;o\

This morning frenzy appears to have been the lemmings selling on the back of a sell tip from RHPS. The MMs managed to pick up a couple of million cheap shares and then the long term buyers started to return
