Ok so the figures sounded OK, but the share price today looks
very temptingly cheap - down to 93p last time I looked, it has
been up there 150p or so, and pays a divi.

So anyone hold these and if you do, what's your views?
I'll dig out the share price chart and paste it up in a mo..

allright people,nice to hear you have been seawall.

lots of volume early on today,why ?

It is near it's all tiume low so there will be buyers about.

These have to be cheap!

I would suggest that they are too risky to call as a long.
Report today suggests that with sales they are having a hard time,this year's profits have been sliced to bottom of the range for this and next year.
Numis has slashed target to 65p with like for like sales having deteriated from 1st quarters 1.7% fall.
Any likely bid from Bauger whom hold 22% or any other bidder does not need to materialise until the share price is lower.
To my mind the downside risk cannot be discounted,although like everything you bet it down and find it goes up.

your right there torquay,it would `nt surprize me if 85 was coming soon,,,,end of day,,you never no . myself bauger still wants to take it private me thinks,who no`s be lucky,it still owes me 20% but i wont sell yet.

what did i say about 85 by end of the day . its here now ?

Yup reached and slightly over by a fraction, still think we will
be holding for possibly 6 months, unless something unexpected happens.

bunny i have given up on this at the moment,i have other fish to fry . brjk/cash,are to of my recent buys big future for these,keep your eye on them.

Moving up....no idea why, but moving up!!

undervalued for sure,divi alone is more than any highstreet bank,i my sell if i can get out allmost even.

Are these worth a punt for recovery?

you tell me ? .
mite be troy,after all they went from 27,180,,,,,,,,,

Times speculates another takeover or buy out.

If it does, Dave is buying the drinks.

I assume you still hold Sainsbury?

yes sw ,but i would like 3.50ish,and thats a fair buyout price.

True.

hows that gas and oil going much change.i here there my be some news on the horizon soon with mtn.

The oil and gas is waiting for .........................

.....well, something!

The run up to Christmas should be either good or bad depending on results.

I know it is not your cup of tea looking at the way you trade, but I am into HNR, SEY, PCI & TLW.

I still hold other bits but the main is there.

I am amazed at all this bid rumour activity in the retail arena, looks like you chose wisely some months back.

to be honest seawall retail is my sector,but i do go for a wide spred of investments,all sectors,bar,oil/gas,textiles,well i have that covered in away,chemicals,power & water.had most other sectors through time,i do have my favs,,,,,,,of course ,we all do.
today i have bought,easyjet/reg vardy.
my golden rule`s are no your sector/and try to buy the top 3 in the sector.its worked for me .

Sounds a good plan.

Me, I have none.

I research, the reseacrh some mre, then watch and buy.

The biggest bloomers have been to listen to a freind who thinks he is in touch with the other side, (of the market).

That has stilted my perfomance, but left to my own devices I do not too bad.

I like the idea of bottom feeding, which I have done in respect of HNR and SEY, trouble is I have to wait for something then to lift them off the bottom.

They both have and now it is a waiting game.

I the mean time, my pension rolls in every month on the 1st which keeps the wolf from the door. (Early retirement is great and recommended).

thats what i hope for,but i will be over 50 by the time the dream comes true,but thats the goal.
