MTFB on the BB people say it will be £1 next year & £2 the year after.
But nobody knows.
I'm holding not adding. I wouldn't sell something else to add.
Trade what you see, not what you think you see.
Similar position to me...But nobody knows.

I probably would add more, if I felt something else had matured, but all mine are in a bit of a holding pattern.

I sold all my Carillion and Provident at the first sign of trouble. Both will come back imo and I would be happy to own the shares again - but how long will the recovery take???
ETA- Provident up nearly 11% this morning.
Indeed. Got in Provident first thing this morning, holding out for around 820 at the moment, watching Carillion with interest.ETA- Provident up nearly 11% this morning.

Game is doing very well this morning too, very tempting but may have missed the boat I think.

And better still today - up almost 20%!
Much better than I had pessimistically expected... Glad I didn't get out at 8.20 now. Think I will hold out for medium term now.
Only wish I had purchased slightly sooner, and a lot more... Hindsight is a wonderful thing!
Anyone in Game or able to offer some insight? Seems the initial momentum has dropped.

I just don't think it has a future. More games are going digital which are available to download directly.
Online retailers like amazon, argos and ebay now have far more popularity than game
I think game has had its time, there might be fluctuations in its share price but long term it will be all but a memory on the high street

That's certainly what my gut is telling me, though in terms of a shorter term punt, it looks a lot more attractive. I just don't think it has a future. More games are going digital which are available to download directly.

Definitely worth doing some research I think, I read somewhere that they were in public talks about dissolving the bricks and motor aspects of their business. Should there be some truth in that, and if it comes to fruition and the new model is sound enough, I think it could recover somewhat. A lot of ifs there though!!

Anyone get tempted by BKY, seems compelling..
Not had a proper look, but i've had it in the back of my mind to investigate more. What are your thoughts on it?The raw material, uranium, is at 10 year low and expected to increase significantly as current suppliers dry up.
The deposits they are about to excavate are some of the biggest and readily accessible.
The mine is in Spain, so no funnies from tinpot local governments...
I have first hand experience in dealing with the Omanis and their DD is second to none, if they are prepared to front up the capital to extract the uranium with £93m (in tranches) I am happy to ride on their coat tails. They also guarantee a buy price for the material above current spot prices.
As always with AIM it's a bit of a punt, but I feel it is a good medium term one, which has much potential....
Ctrip tried to give me a heart attack (on Etoro, so CFDs, no actual ownership).
Value had been going up nicely, GREAT Earnings report after hours, after hours trading looked even better, then when the market opened it lost over 6% so fast I didn't have time to dump it.
Ah well. we live and learn!

The same thoughts as you were what made me file it away as one to look at - low Uranium prices, and a useful deposit in a friendly & politically stable location. I've no idea how it stacks up in terms of cost of production mind you.

Seems like a healthy medium term good bet to me...

I don't know if you're still holding Provident? If so you might want to read this:-Game is doing very well this morning too, very tempting but may have missed the boat I think.

A lot of their previously self employed agents seem to be jumping ship and taking their customers with them. I always liked the Provident business model but I wonder if they can recover from this.

Thanks, fortunately I got out at 920, ahead of the dip it's since taken!http://www.providentagents.com/index.php
