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.

Chiva

yes
been holding since 10p ish and continue to do so for the long term.

Results are due monday week (march 1st) which should clarify the november trading statement of "materially ahead of forecasts"

recently seen new contract with macys/bloomingdales and Goldman Sachs and Barclays buying in as well as entry to the TM100.

My targets/timescale are quite long term. I am hoping for an EPS this year of 1.8p-2p and then next year of 3p. This, come monday week, would give a current pe of 17-19 and a forward pe of 11. With the current growth levels this still appears cheap though we will know more once we actually see the results.

Currently a lot more short term money in the share (lead up to results) and this will lead to added volatility.

all IMHO and DYOR etc etc

Me too - I think it's good news to see loads of sellers coming out of the woodwork now - this means that come results time we shouldn't see a cascade of profit takers selling off and the sp may actually rise when the results are known!

Within the next 12 months looking to 60p-80p as a reasonable target.

parveen1 - 18 Feb 2005 19:20 - 2127 of 2406

Agreed overgrowth

A fair number of ppl were expecting this to rise to the mid 40's to the results and were expecting to dump their shares.
I'm happy for it to go up in gentle strides

Looking to topup if it gets to 33p (have 20k lying around)
I am sure there will be many more ppl ready also

As I mentioned on ADFV: As per investtech chart, we are trading on the bottom line of a rising channel. If we move up a 1p on Mon/Tues then we can expect further movement upwards until results day. If not, I can see a horizontal development potentially moving into a wedge - break-out either way will be very difficult to predict at that point unless there an optmistic report from Clump. I continue to hold - glass half full etc.

Douggie - 21 Feb 2005 15:58 - 2129 of 2406

HI folks :-[ not looking prety ;o\

pachandl - 21 Feb 2005 16:18 - 2130 of 2406

Testing my patience. I can only assume that the MMS want more "breathing space" in the run-up to results. Walking the price down might maximise their profits next week. Either that or weak holders are getting worried and abandoning ship!!

Douggie - 21 Feb 2005 17:53 - 2131 of 2406

I'm nervouse but holding... hope not unfounded faith can't realy see why they should drop any lower.....but what do I know............! ;o\

Fred1new - 21 Feb 2005 17:53 - 2132 of 2406

Patience Douggie. The results wil be good and more to maintain this SP. At the worst the market may play silly burgers for for a few weeks before it climbs once more. 40 p at least. I am sticking until I see at least 48-50p.

Fred1new - 21 Feb 2005 17:56 - 2133 of 2406

500000 and 100000 share buys at end of shift to-day.

Douggie - 22 Feb 2005 08:30 - 2134 of 2406

WE are certainly being taken for a hell of a ride not enjoying this at all ;-/

Chiva20 - 22 Feb 2005 08:54 - 2135 of 2406

Nope I'm hanging on but not enjoying it.

Douggie - 22 Feb 2005 12:02 - 2136 of 2406

once again so much for long term holding another good profit taking oppotunity GONE...........but I didnt know 'till now that this would happen ;-/

skyhigh - 22 Feb 2005 12:12 - 2137 of 2406

scary isn't it ! who knows what's gonna happen now ?.. this must be a big tree shake and the sp will resume it's upward path soon.(imho) :-)

pachandl - 22 Feb 2005 12:25 - 2138 of 2406

skyhigh - my worry is that by breaking the low-point resistance levels the sp might not recover at all for a couple of months. I am really pissed off for not selling when the sp got to 37p - greed is not necessarily a good thing. Anyway, I am now holding for the year!

skyhigh - 22 Feb 2005 13:03 - 2139 of 2406

Same here..I'm holding for the long term....

Fred1new - 22 Feb 2005 13:06 - 2140 of 2406

Yes it is miserable, but will be surprised or horrified if it drops below 30p. which I think is most unlikely. I have removed my stop loss trigger, which is unusual for me. I still think this is due a little to some holders from 5p up taking their profits after a period of consolidation in price. Also due to apprehension that even with good results many of the smaller tech and support companies being caned. But if one looks over slightly longer period these company prices generally recover of short period.

Look at Wolfson, Amstrad, TPT etc.

Anyway it been b. awful for my stocks for a few days other than SBT, TFW, WLF, even SEO is wobbling around. But that is the market.


Douggie still think to see 40p a week or two after the results. Unless Bush attacks Russia in a mistake for IRAN.

But undoubtedly we would be able to put that behind us to!!!

Like my intention of killing Blair because I believe it is the right thing to do. Think of the ongoing misery I will save the British people. 8-)

O happy days.

Keep Smiling!

ethel - 22 Feb 2005 13:17 - 2141 of 2406

It looks as though RTD is one of those stocks that has a nice hike in price in January,(note that the directors did'nt buy this time round),followed by a slow decline,with 5p price movements until the rise up again beginning in October.That is if it follows previous patterns,hope not!!!If it does,you will not loose more than 10p per share approx.Either way,it should go upto 45p IMHO.I think that the prospects are greatly improved on last year and hope the sp to be boosted by new contract announcements.It has similarities to NSB,is anyone into that?

washlander - 23 Feb 2005 08:00 - 2142 of 2406

The trading pattern in RTD is totally diffrent from last year. There appears to be much bigger volumes of buys over the last three months or so. Furthermore the sales are in smaller tranches then the buys although more of them.
I do believe it is the smaller investor who originally supported RTD who is reponsible for the movement down as he/she takes profits with last years performance in mind. The big boys are still there. Also I dfo believe the money people are very much responsible for tree shaking.
My wife and I are still here as we think that 39p - 43p is the more realistic price short to medium term with a rise to over 50p by next year.
What do we know we still work instead of drinking gin on some tropical island :-}

Douggie - 23 Feb 2005 08:33 - 2143 of 2406

here we are again

Mourning all ;-/

Rumour of the Day


Retail Decisions, the card fraud prevention specialist, dipped 1p to 32p, despite talk that Tuesdays full-year results are likely to be accompanied by three contract wins. Last month RD signed Federated Department Stores, the owner of Macys and Bloomingdales. The shares have risen sharply since October, when it said profits would beat forecasts.
