Jacque Vert are a favourite of mine. I've bought on each downturn and collected some nice profits in the past.

With some amazing assets and brandnames, bought for shares last year, the smart boys are now ready for action. I'd be surprised if there wasn't a takeover before the finals, people are now moving in.

Should I buy more?

Steady today!

They're warming up again!

Wait 'til this beauty starts to rise!

Getting ready for an uplift?

Any thoughts, Actif and Alexon were both positive

Greetings JRM.
Its looks as though its a lonely life posting on this thread. You seem to be talking to yourself! Fear not for the Lord (Gnome) is with you. I see JQV as a potential three-bagger on a twelve month view. Hope we'll see a positive trading statement at the end of the month and a good run up to the results. Keep the faith - we just need a few more partners.

Lord Gnome

Thank you!
I'm usually alone!

Why are they panicing today. This is the perfect takeover candidate. Good brand, big institutional share holder, good assets (Remember Baird) Low market value etc. Should I buy more?

Just curious about the departure of Bill Walker - was this expected as everyone seems to still be upbeat about JQV? Had he done all he was hired to or was this a big surprise?

Cheers, Blanny19

The speed was a bit unexpected but I think the ideals he imposed will hold the company in good sted.

Todays trade is mixed

Please talk to me!

The spread has spread slightly.
Is this the bottom?

Greetings JRM, just checked in to see if you were still alive. Are we alone? Do you think anyone else is eavesdropping?
Is this the bottom indeed - or is it the end? I've given up with this share. Still its the end of the trading year on Friday let's hope for better things to come in 2004/05. Still a long way to go before we get results in July. I don't suppose that there is any chance of a trading update is there?
I continue to hold only because I just couldn't bare to sell out at this level.

Lord Gnome

We need more smart ladies!

Thoughts please. I'm all alone again!

Just popped in to say hello JRM. No news, this is without a doubt the most unoved share on the market. Most of us are here because we were daft enough to buy in after the ramp by Mark Watson-Mitchell - I hope the smug git's bank have called in his overdraft!
Still, today is the last day of fiscal 04 for JQV. Let's hope that May starts a new and more positive chapter in the JQV story. From tomorrow morning we could be sitting on a share with a forecast EPs of 4.87 and a forward P/E of just 3.18! (Figures taken from Barclays Stockbrokers concensus of brokers forecasts). This share will have to move soon if that forecast holds good.
I might give the company a call and ask if they have any plans to issiue a trading update.
Keep the faith - this could still turn out for the best.

By the way - forecast EPS for this year is 1.57p for an EPS of 10. I won't buy any more until results - I want to see if the current forecast is anywhere near correct and I'll read what the directors have to say. If it is accurate and the forward statement sounds positive then let's make sure that we top up before the crowds arrive!

Lord Gnome

Come on chaps, keep the faith!

Will this morning about Belinda from Debenhams going to the competition spark any interest?

Some blue today. Perhaps we're rising!
