Going to be a big day for MTFB, following am RNS this morning on Amphions position and clarification that it has been them selling over the last month or so, which is all over now...

Game on.

[dom9]

Yeah - I am getting slightly frustrated I didn't buy more now but waiting for BOO.L to report on Wednesday!

I think there is still plenty of time to get into MTFB.L but it'll hurt paying say 40p instead of <30p!

Even SXX.L is green today!

[Lucifer Morningstar]

As above, very much looking forward to reading the results for BOO.L on Wednesday.

ONS for retail sales in the UK recently cited a jump in consumer spending (August), unexpected given the current climate.

88e has dipped to 0.9p (-14%).

Anyone else in IQE?

I sold half my holding at 147p just before the iPhone x launch as a hedge as thought it would drop, thought I was being clever, but it's dropped more than I could have imagined and the disclosed shorts are still growing... It's almost back to where I bought, I'm risking loosing my gains if it continues to drop at this rate...

I cancelled a stop loss at 120p yesterday because i thought knowing my luck it qould bounce as soon as i was stopped out, I'm happy to invest in this company under normal market conditions, I believe they have a great and profitable future, but I don't want to piss money away, any idea where the bottom is?

Woodford can't buy a favour at the moment of he's in it it doomed. I'd sell now and see what happens, if you believe in the company buy back in later, better to lose money you never had than lose money you do have.

Woodford has had a bad run lately but overall he's still ahead of the pack.

I can see the arguments in the Times article but if I had sold shares on every newspaper sell recommendation I would be seriously out of pocket.

So rightly or wrongly I sold enough of my Stobart shares yesterday to recover my initial investment. They were showing nearly 120% profit so I left the profit element. Could be an interesting ride.

The market has answered this question in thi mornings session, bounced off 110p back up to near 120p... I just need to be patient and come back to this in a few weeks.

Presumably the market is reacting to the decreased margin?

[Burwood]

Yes but what did they expect. The pound has fallen.

[dom9]

Hmmmm... doesn't look like I'll be flipping my BOO.L today.

Results weren't bad at all. In fact; they were good! A bit of profit taking and a tree shake, today, perhaps. This has happened before. Suspect it'll rise again in a few days to new highs. They're making more money and still growing.

It's not 'worth less' today than it was yesterday. Disappointing but hardly the end of the world. Still holding most of the gains up to quite recently.

[Shnozz]

BOO must be moving at some pace. Had to requote about 10 times to place an order just now. Never had that before.

[bmwmike]

Just topped up on BOO and bought 10k cap-xx

Amzn looking good candidate for top up with the stronger £ and a recent fall in SP but holding off for now.

[dom9]

BOO.L showing over 10% down now... Suspect there will be a reversal shortly as people see a buying opportunity.

The company is making more money than ever and yet we're now ~35p below the peak of the last few months.

Didn't see this coming (obviously, else I'd have sold).

Will keep holding for now, expecting it to turn and head back up. More MTFB.L will have to wait!

[Shnozz]

Even more oddly in my trade I seem to have only paid 230 yet the quoted price was 236. 10 or so re-quotes later and its executed at 230, then immediately showed a % gain at 234 upon going back (straight away) to the main screen.

You've done well there, by the looks of things!

The spread (bid/ask) on MTFB.L looks to have gone out 5%+

Feels like it's being held back. Hopefully this continues for a BOO.L recovery.

Still find it a bit odd that it has dropped so much.

Sold £34k yesterday in BOO at 260p (Entire holding) as didn't want a large drop on downgraded guidance. Needed £12k for cash & the Rolex Submariner paid for with BOO profits which I'm picking up next weekend. The rest of the money is for the car balloon payment due Oct'18. (£22k)

Bought £22k back this morning at 8:05 at 259p, read the RNS, saw lots of uplifted guidances and pulled the trigger too soon! I have no doubt it will recover, no doubt. Hoping for £2.85-£3.00 within 12 months.

Liberum analyst stated that the fall in SP was due to margin consensus going from above 10% to 9-10%. Margins had dropped due to growth in lower margin PLT as well as investment in the brand.
