Devolver Digital are listing on the FTSE AIM on Thursday 4th November. I'm seriously tempted to buy-in.

Been looking at charts for game publisher/devs:

Team 17 Group (TM17): listed May 2018 at 232.80, now 704.57
Frontier Developments PLC (FDEV): listed July 2013 at 161.00, now 2,360.00

I think Devolver might be somewhere in the middle of the two, i.e. they select more niche games, but have classic brands like Fall Guys now.

Christ, who was in Avis then fellas?

Gone absolutely mental. Opened at 150 and reached 550 before falling back to ~320!

I was in Wallbox which went from $11 to $28 then has settled to $16‐$17 last Tuesday after getting the deal with Uber.
Unfortunately I only had £20 in it so wasn't worth selling at the peak.

I ditched Team17. I think there is still growth there, but I don't expect it to accelerate.

I also ditched Keyword Studios. I think there is still huge potential for them and possibly a take-over in the future, but I think being listed on a FTSE is a hinderance. Tech isn't valued at all, the UK market (I'm aware KWS is based in Dublin) is pretty stale.

There have been plenty of articles on this especially with more foreign private equity coming in and buying up UK companies. UK investors and institutions are extremely cautious and just don't value UK companies.

I don't see the next Skype (Sweden), Spotify (Sweden), Uni-soft (France).

p.s I'm not forgetting ARMH which we all know was sold off relatively cheaply.

I'd equate memes as consensus which does move stocks for sure

Europe natural gas BOE is $200 apparently, bonkers. We have spare reserves of this in uk just have chosen not to develop it but import it from Qatar instead who obviously get it cheaply in excess

Yep, oil and Nat gas looking good for short term gains.

Why are OCUK forum members berated for pumping stock but when there is a news article from the Motley Fool it is ok? Asking for a friend.

If you look at the poster it's not exactly one of the regulars in here that offers too much insight.

I see your Thungela has bounced back. Hope you caught that falling knife :p
 
That ocugen article says it might, but shouldn't rise, soooo...

Name sounds familiar tbh, I might have had a dabble with them before.
 
On an amusing story. I posted a while back about Mode that a mate had sunk about £10k into based on a recommendation from a mate. When i asked him about it i seemed to get it was "something to do with Open Banking"

I was ordering something from Look Fantastic and noticed that Mode were one of the options for payment. If you used them to pay it gave you 5% back as Bitcoin.

I was out with the guy on Saturday night and mentioned it and asked why he thought they'd grow given they're up against the likes of Paypal/Klarna/ShopTo/Any of the million others. He said that their fees were low at only 0.5% so shops would want to use them.

I pointed out that if they only charge 0.5% on the transaction but give the customer 5% in cashback then they're losing 4.5% on every transaction. He just looked a little confused at that. I know that companies, especially in a Fintech type space will usually make huge losses to build up market share, but it's concerning that people are investing (his only asset) without knowing too much.

So Devolver have now listed, under stock code DEVO.

I can't find this on either HL or Halifax Share Dealing when I search though. Any ideas on how long it takes share dealing platforms to show new stocks?
 
Invest funds not shares in the majority. This thread has some people who could lose all of what they invest and they bounce back the next year maybe even gain more then they lost because thats their income savings profile. Its why tips end up being unsuitable for other people even if the idea is ok, the risk of over night news is massive on shares.
The cost of acquiring that BTC wont be 100% face value probably, they can arrange some regular contract buy as there is a ton of business in crypto but with no wish to retain the actual crypto vs their FIAT liabilities; but yep sounds like a loss leader. They are already losing money if lacking sufficient customer revenue.

The cost of a FTSE fund is below a tenth of a percent, maybe the platform charges something but its so cheap vs swapping shares about even just on spread people will be spending far more. FTSE was like 5% yield I think its now paying over 3% every year, its hard to beat for hands off saving.
Shares need to check the RNS news at 7am every day, its tons more hassle to know all the details.

If RR puts in a low here for the weekly that'd match Dec '20 peak which seems more bullish then I expected. The FED speaking about less easy money seemed to have taken on no negative sentiment so far

Not sure if anyone is keeping an eye out but Volvo are floating on the Stockholm exchange tomorrow.

I wonder if the whole car sector as a fund would work out on the basis any good manufacturer can develop an electric car and share in the valuation placed on just couple advanced in that respect. Not sure I'll see any fund manager say as much but if a company does well its within a sector growing and demand growing for that product.

Are we bullish tech because of windows 11 ? I dont see tech as overvalued overall, they seem unimpeded

Speak to me in 9 months. China has been manipulating coal prices downwards.

Good buying opportunity currently to double down on.

I'm buying into kistos currently until they sort out the rail issue though in South Africa. Government seems to be dragging their feet. That's affected them hugely they can't get their coal to their other customers.

Made about 30% on some of the money I took away from thungela into crypto so I timed that sell well as it plummeted afterwards.
 
Looks like Nvidia is going to the moon. Up another 6% today. That 14% over the last 7 days and 40% in the past month.

Pretty sure earnings are due on the 17th so there might be some pull back then due to shortages, bottlenecks etc.. but indications are it's going to continue to perform. Probably the next $1tn company this time next year, if the worlds economies don't then go crazy due to over supply.

As I understand it, Nvidia has teamed up with Microsoft for more metaverse stuff.
 
Hop nobody jumped in on that Ocugen post above, down nearly 21% today...

Still, maybe nows the time to buy lol
