Look at those results today.Superbly run business, funding good growth from own cash generation. Regular increases in dividend. Have held for many years within PEP - not one to double overnight, but IMO one for serious investors to lock away for the long term. 10 for 1 share split may help marketability going forward.Always DYOR etc.

Doesn't look great. Can't resist a punt though. May well not even get there, left a Limit Buy on spreads (Mar Contract) @ 312.0 if triggered target 340.0 tight stop 299.0
Interim 27th January.

Tempted to jump in long today but didn't, will wait for 312p to be filled (if it ever does get filled) at least back above 300p today.

Getting closer but no cigar. Time yet, Interim results Tuesday 27th Jan.

16 Jan Panmure Gordon 310.00 Hold

Aye DC, no sense of humour yon brokers :0)

You need more than a sense of humour to buy this. :-))

Perhaps a few stiff drinks. lol

Working on it DC :0)

Working on it ? lol

He who dares Rodney, He who dares! Not buying it, wee punt. If it breaks resistance @ 310p who knows. Look what happened to TSCO :0)

Tesco was fully expected. :-)) Seriously I hope it does well for you. Only needs its fortunes turning round.

lol. Well done Chris.

Probably tank tomorrow dc, we'll see :0)

Stop to entry for risk free trade.

back page ST biz section concludes SELL
worth reading the whole article

Good morning cynic. Yes this in no secret. Indeed the Telegraph (Questor) highlighted PZC in Jan 2013 as a sell and subsequently stock has been in a downtrend since and again todays Sunday Telegraph recommends sell.

However I use a trading strategy leading up to results based on the chart irrespective of fundamentals similar to your trading of Dow and Ftse. I believe they call it gambling :0)

On 3rd Jan, when I first looked at the chart I read it as oversold @ 290p and at levels of support in 2012. I purposefully waited as documented until resistance was broken @ 310p and order was filled at my entry 312p. I am just hitching a ride.

Closed on Friday @ 320.70 and I subsequently placed my stop to entry. Therefore a trade to nowt. If it rises tomorrow I may take profits before results Tuesday or wait till tuesday to revise strategy.

Trading to me is a hobby, I enjoy it. I don't trade Dow or Ftse because I don't want to spend all day looking at a screen. Horses for courses old bean. What! :0)

What ho! I say (old chap): Jolly good show, Rather! By jove!, toodle-pip. :-))

I say is that dreamcatcher of The Remove? Tally Ho old chap! :o)
