Ah that German deal explains it - thought there must have been something like that in the background

skinny - 29 Nov 2012 08:12 - 66 of 92

I have held them several times over the years - but sadly, not now!

Toya - 29 Nov 2012 08:16 - 67 of 92

Isn't that just typical eh? I'm not kicking myself though - would be black and blue by now!

ahoj - 29 Nov 2012 09:29 - 68 of 92

Thankfully I hold some. I paid so much interest as they are in CFD account, but well worth it.
Expecting £4.

skinny - 29 Nov 2012 09:51 - 69 of 92

Well done ahoj - I was tempted when I posted yesterday, but these have had spikes like that before which have amounted to nothing - so that exactly what I did - nothing!!

ahoj - 29 Nov 2012 09:56 - 70 of 92

I was kicking myself for not selling six months ago, when spiked and I was quoted for 266!
I sold 30% ealier today at 314 and will keep the rest for £4+. Pension will be resolved and the rest, two third of business will be in a better shape after this deal. IMO

Toya - 29 Nov 2012 09:58 - 71 of 92

Yes - well done Ahoj!

The sale of their railway business to Siemens should be nearing completion, will this clear the way for a bid for the remaining controls etc operations?

halifax - 25 Apr 2013 11:06 - 73 of 92

results due 16th May sale of railway business completed,return of capital (76p) per share will be paid shortly thereafter.

halifax - 28 Apr 2013 20:28 - 74 of 92

newspaper reports suggest bid coming from the US.

halifax - 30 Apr 2013 11:28 - 75 of 92

sp up 4% so far today.

halifax - 01 May 2013 16:04 - 76 of 92

sp moving up towards the close is that bid coming?

ahoj - 01 May 2013 16:12 - 77 of 92

Most likely.


I was telling everyone to buy when it was 165p over a year ago.

halifax - 01 May 2013 16:16 - 78 of 92

ahoj must have been five years ago looking at their chart.

ahoj - 01 May 2013 16:29 - 79 of 92

January 2012, when it crashed following an announcement.

halifax - 01 May 2013 16:37 - 80 of 92

ahoj not a closing price according to the charts.

halifax - 02 May 2013 14:00 - 81 of 92

RNS sale of railway business to Siemens completed for £1.7 billion.

ahoj - 02 May 2013 14:07 - 82 of 92

Siemens could buy it two or three years earlier at half the price. It is unfortunate that they follow advise from big boys, and wait until the market is strong and pay high prices.

Common mistakes by big companies are the result of guidance (in fact misguide) by their advisors (big banks, so called investment specialists/advisors !!!)...

Good for ISYS.

halifax - 07 May 2013 10:32 - 83 of 92

sp reaches £4 ahead of next weeks results.

ahoj - 07 May 2013 10:44 - 84 of 92

Yes, as I stated above, Siemens could buy the whole company around 128p a share, pay less for the whole company.....

Those who downgraded ISYS then are the main winners.
