Trading the stockmarket (NO Referrals)

Fuzz · 9 Jan 2010 at 14:22

I've spotted a US based company that has applied for an IPO but as yet hasn't seeded onto the market..
How do I go about keeping up to date with it, so I know when the shares hit the market. There isn't a proposed date on the IPO form, only "2010".

Find out which broker is handling the IPO and which exchange they will use

Fuzz · 9 Jan 2010 at 14:42

All I can glean at the moment are the underwriters. Goldman Sachs & Morgan Stanley :/

yep all the banks are down, I think XTA is well worth looking at if the drop to under 10 pounds.

I know I said I was going to stay out of the market but I decided to give YELL a go and im around 5k down at the moment, I am quite tempted to take the loss to invest in RBS.

Obama is just blowing smoke, the banks will go back up.

This just give you a chance to top up a little.

whoo, I have been baning on about Yell for weeks. Finally the markets have seen they are Undervalued.

Its up 15% today

and if they have hold above 42 I expect to see another large bump over the next few weeks.

mine are still drilling (should reach terminal depth by end of feb) 3600m
No news yet and shares are on their ass.

I bet it's a duster, would be just my luck lol

Feel your pain Scubascopion, I'm waiting on two emerging oil expos at the moment. One just changed crew due, and have had probs with a nitro kick. The other just seems to be on a constant red day...

Nice to see MNR just keeps going on and on

Something seems up here again, no news, a day when most things are dropping, this pops up for seemingly no reason.

Wonder if lettings news is on it's way.

Currently I hold Barclays (was down for a while but they have done fantastically as of late, why didn't I top up I will never know) and today bought some Provexis and Gulf Keystone Petroleum.

I'm hoping GKP will do well over the coming weeks/months and Provexis is a bit of a gamble really

Oh dear what happened to gkp today

Yah its a bad day today and to be honest I think we are on a downwards trend.

I quid pleased I sold up RBS about a week ago but I sold my Yell yesterday (with a very good profit) but bought XTA yesterday which is down around 5%

icey_haj · 5 Feb 2010 at 08:46

Getting hammered. :mad:

Simon · 5 Feb 2010 at 09:04

I have over 10k Lloyds shares at an average of 47.9p.

Was gonna sell at 58p too as I was expecting another drop. If you get it right I think there is a lot of money to be made of bank share fluctuations over the next few months

gord · 5 Feb 2010 at 09:26

I think I might sell my AU. soon. They've been fighting the trend, but the index back at 5 doesn't look particularly strong.
