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.

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.

well its rising now

Morning All

That is a nice rumour Fund. hope there is some truth in it :o)

Damn - knew I sold too early. Oh well you win some - you loose some

Cheers Fund.

The interesting thing with the rumour to me is that it stated that there were three. you would expected a rumour to be contract win/wins with no number - 3 implies to me that it is more than a rumour - nice to see some blue back after a few red days

Agree with your point re "3". Clearly we cannot expect any one of those deals to be "company transforming" otherwise RTD would have to disclose that information immediately through an RNS - but if it is true then it shows that RTD is picking up customers at all levels. Holding my breath for next Tuesday.

Much better day musn't get too excited little :o) in order

that was a lot of trading for 1/2 a p still beternowt!

looking forward to next week DO hope I am not dissapointed!!!!!!!! ;-\

Have a nice weekend all

:o))

Ah well not sorry to see back of Feb. this year!!

maybe tomorrow .. my hope/expectation isn't too high ;-/

Douggie - 30p by end of tomorrow?

Douggie......looking for a 10% rise tomorrow

A broker target price of 31p was set many many moons ago, since then we have signed countless new contracts and the aussie fuel business is doing great.
+ there's rumours of new contract wins

The current 34p looks so undervalued IMHO.

Headline news in the US:

"Federated agreed to buy rival May for $11 billion in a deal that would combine famous store brands such as Bloomingdale's, Macy's and Marshall Field's."

That will make for a good deal of stores across the US on the level of Walmart.

I assume that RTD's technology will be rolled out over the new stores too.

Looks like excellent news to me.

Interesting day tomorrow. I'm half expecting a slight retrace maybe by as much as 10% over the coming week. After then the the good news will sink in, including the wide ranging effect of deals in the US such as the one above and we'll see that steady climb towards the first major hurdle of 1.

It all depends on what the value of the rumoured 3 news contracts is. Good news on this along with great results will send RTD soaring up.

FRED helloooooooo fred you gone quiet you sold out?can't blame you if you did ;-/

No still holding about 200K. Sold a tranche some months ago which I had held from 5p. I think there is still a long way up for this share to go. Intend to wait for it.

I do hope to-morrow is a good day!! Same goes for SEO and BPRG.

Well the results look good - but ws this already in the price - or was this better than expectation ?

B

Well - I did not have to wait long for my answer - down 7.5% alreday ? - Why ? - anyone any comment please

Morning all

I think the initial market sentiment reacts my views that the rsults were good but not that good - the recent share price appreciation had priced in something special. I think that there were no new contracts that we didnt know about and that eps was at the bottom end of what most of us were expecting to see. Short term i think this may well suffer but the long term story is still very positive, with reference to potential acquisitions to grow the business.



i sold 2/3 of my holding at 33p this am, will buy them back at some stage once the dust has settled, still holding a fair sized chunk


Will do some more reading and some calcs and will post later

Thanks Fundy - look forward to your analysis
