Actually making a profit on CINE now after I averaged down last week up over 30% today wow

Now up 50% wow

[Atanasoff]

The market is nuts - just over a week ago I was at at £2,500 loss in total (sorry, realise I am small fry) and that pays for a nice holiday.

Thanks to buying back into BOO and CINE at just the right time by the looks of things I have just a paper profit of £500.

Kicking myself that I don't have pendulous balls like some here. I stuck £1K into my 212 account this morning but only bought £500 of CINE. Arrrggghhhh.


What happened? Just fell by 20% in a second !!!!!

AA broken 40p, not sure how much more it can keep going.

Fantastic to be reminded of the days of early summer when things were soaring.

AA, restaurant group and cineworld all having a great couple of days.

I’m sure it’s only a matter of time before the dream is over though...

As I said the other day, it has doubled in a day in the past.

Guessing someone must have offloaded a load at 65p which mad it sink back down.

I am holding out for £1.00 a share and aiming to double up...

Per my questions above, I don't understand the shorts game. The data still shows big holdings but is several days out of date and suspect some have reduced or closed.
Possible a price gets run up by the same parties to cover a loss.

I bought in as a long term thing. All this bouncing about is an education.

With 3-4 competing names in the mix, the threat of AA being able to refinance their immediate debt cheaply, and the share price being a small component of the overall buy price, there must be people taking a view that 40p is to be viewed as a *minimum* takeover offer.

I was just wondering why my nice gain almost vanished in a flash.

The variables in the market are equally fascinating as they are frightening.

Indeed, I cant claim to understand it as I only started trading due to COVID-19 and coming across this thread whilst bored...

Its made me a few £ and given me a hobby so wont complain. I struggle not to be doing something so this whole lock down period has been difficult for me despite me still working full time.

You seem to be confusing CINE with an AIM share...

2. There was a ruling in the US yesterday that removes some of the limitations in the industry in terms of who can own what. The big studios can now buy cinema chains. So there's some takeover hype here, too.

Me too. When the pandemic was full on the share priced crashed. When pandemic part 1 is over the share price increases. Surely pandemics are good news for funeral companies. Anyway I missed out on todays rise.
