So, what's going on with Boohoo since the highs?

Wasn't there something that spooked investors in the amount of returns they were dealing with..?
Isn't it just following the AIM100 shape, everything has been sliding of late.

I'm in with BAE, my future TVR depends on it! and can't believe it's dropped the last 6 months growth in the last week, despite just signing a £3.7B contract......

For those still invested in Mtfb or thinking of doing, here's a summary from the brass on what they're up to.

It interesting (BOO.L) - There seems to be no obvious news to have spurred the retrace.

Yes, there could be some concerns with returns (this must be common for the online clothing industry) and didn't they do a share placement to raise £50M for a new warehouse to help them grow, which was done at £2.20.

So, I imagined £2.20 would be where the support is but it's now at £2.15, which is almost 20% below the peak a couple of weeks back.

I'm holding for the early August trading update but I do regret my decision not to sell at my £2.50 target and buying back in now.

But I guess I'd have needed to know the drop is coming.

MTFB.L is interesting... Seems fairly stagnant around 30p.

Will buy boohoo hopefully at nearer 200p and awaiting the august update.

Got out of ukog with a measly 2.5k profit (in a week) so not too bad, but could have been 8k if I timed it better. I expect it to go down to nearer 2.5p now but I could be and usually am wrong. Looking at Angus energy as apparently they are about to start production.

Mtfb I sold at a loss to put into ukog. Had the same happen there, lost all my profits due to not selling on spike and ended up losing out. May buy back in now as 30p seems to be rock bottom. But nothing exciting looks to be happening for a while there.

UKOG is painful to watch, I kept two positions open hoping it will grow a bit more, now I'm wondering whether to sell and forget about it or hold it until it bounces back.

Lesson for being too greedy learned. If only the damn IG let me adjust the stop level. mad



Any thoughts on Kromek Group (KMK)? They seem to be doing well, good financial forecasts, should be a solid moderate gain.

Yep, UKOG is all over the place, but all the news seems to be positive and I've not got much 'invested' in there so I'll just hold and see what happens. Currently worth significantly less than I paid!

Always amazes me how companies of this size are able to keep the markets in the dark for so much time as to the genuine state of their businesses.

Looking at the share price performance it had been on the slide for a good couple of years before this bombshell.



I wouldn't be in a hurry to buy yet personally- profit warnings have a habit of coming in threes - but can see the appeal from a gambling/punt point of view.

Disney seems to do well each year during the Christmas period from early November. On the top of that, The Last Jedi comes out this December too.

I sold Carillion around March this year, very glad I did. I think you would have to be very brave indeed to buy now.

My dilemma is what to do with my Provident shares. They have been very good in terms of growth and dividends but have been in decline since the recent profit warning. As we know there are often more than one profit warning, so sell or hold??? scratchchin

Could anyone a bit more knowledgeable shed some light on the price forecast of Sirius Minerals?

http://www.hl.co.uk/shares/shares-search-results/s...

For the last several years they reported higher than expected losses and I can't find any breaking news that would explain this rather high target price.
