Trading the stockmarket (NO Referrals)

Those of us already in QPP are expecting big things in the next 2 weeks, slater and gordon are considering a bid with rumours ranging from 500m to 1 billion, this is for one division which is worth about 60% of EBITDA. If that happens current market cap of 300m (ish) will be shown to be ludicrous.
 
Those looking for high risk-reward play, take a look at LSE:TUNG. Management is exceptional. Very lucrative business model for monitising e-Invoicing.
 
^^ cliche maybe but capitalism has a tendency to efficiency through open competition which makes it more or less superior to every other economic attempt at trade control. Or in short if you prefer, greed :p
socialism is inferior to lower prices from economies of scale. Main dynamic I see occuring is a recognition of that, our system at present and most parties are all rebased to the left imo

Do you mean buying or cutting losses?

I mean the company really, shares and personal losses are retrospective though it affects sentiment near term. Just wondering how solid that business really, etc

USD eclipsed GBP in 1914, but world didn't realize until 1944. What if dollar is already sunk? http://bit.ly/1FqHV1x pic.twitter.com/hLKB2P8VAe

It's certainly a fun story to be on the outside of, not so much on the inside of, I imagine.

It's a sort of steroidal company with blistering profits but no cash flow to show for it and wasn't helped by the ex-chairman and CEO jumping ship. It's not going to go bust but a lot of it's asset base will have to go for it to recover and I highly doubt it will recover to anywhere near it's peak.

It'll be interesting to see the result of the PwC audit as well.

I also dislike it's business of personal injury claims, PPI recovery, credit hire and accident management.

Got in when they where about 200p, luckily only £2000 as a punt but **** me it is annoying.

Well I liked the part about tracking technology decreasing premiums and basically an efficiency derived business model. However that is a minor to this claims handling major which is a mess.
We can hope they spin gold thread from straw, asset selloff is most likely I guess. There does seem to be buyers so on that basis its maybe a buy but a risky one.

Today they fell upto 20% on a share dynamic

The share itself is not strong looking

Apple’s share price has risen 23,639% from its first trading day

I guess theres a simple argument for product makes the company ?

You're welcome, I'm sitting on 9000ish of these across two isa's at average of 208p. I think some hedge funds are shorting TUNG at the minute from what I can see here:
http://www.shorttracker.co.uk/company/GB00B7Z0Q502/all

We have a choice of selling incase 200p support is breached (to buy at even lower prices) or hold and not give in or buying! My funds are all allocated and one of the small caps I'm in is very illiquid and really p'ing me off because I want to top up on tungsten! My gut tells me they will one day be ftse 350 and then ftse100 over a 5 year plus horizon.

Did you listen to the webcast and watch the video here? http://www.tungstencorporationplc.com/content/tungsten-20142015-mid-year-update

Top tip from me is don't listen to tips...

I'd agree with that especially tips from the likes of Fool and Red Hot Penny Shares etc....in fact I'd go as far as saying I'd short all Fool's buy idea's if I was a trader with lots of free cash.

I however wasn't tipping, merely saying "Take a look at". I will however disclose that have apportioned a large weighting to my portfolio to this particular equity.

I personally dislike it immensely and feel for the many retail investors who they captured through arguably dodgy accounting via their 100+ subsidiaries.
