Re: GVC Stream Log I should say - A bid offer of up to £3.6 billion (depending on the FOBT report due this Autumn.)
Ladbrokes Coral has a market cap of £2.28 billion, GVC value them at £2.7 billion and make a bid offer of £3.6 billion, only for talks to break down - their shareholders will be seething!
Re: A Steady rise this week - more proba... Your post was certainly more illuminating than charlie51's.
Re: A Steady rise this week - more proba... If there was any sort of above average volume here at all then you might have a point. But ....fact is there is not.

Re: A Steady rise this week - any idea why? Because the fall since mid June has been overdone. Possibly. Shares do rise and shares do fall. Some even flatline.
A Steady rise this week - any idea why? There has been a steady rise in the SP this week - however there has been no news.Does anyone have any Idea why the rise is there?

Janus Henderson Group now +10% Janus Henderson Group plc have increased their stake in GVC to 10.09%.This must be a good indicator of a positive sentiment.
2017 dividend prediction I found this prediction:"Future GVC Holdings dividend predictionsEx-Div Date Pay Date Type 05 October 2017 03 November 2017 Interim"Until we get an annpouncement it is just a guess on the date and the amount anyway.
divi we have had 2 dividends this year so far Feb and May. Does anyone know what we can expect for the rest of the year?mm
Large number of automated trades I notice that there were 30 trades all timed at 12:593 today these must be automated trades - I assume the significance is these trades indicate stakebuilding?
Re: Todays Trading update - good news! Reasonable to expect increasing dividends, notwithstanding a quieter summer due to the lack of a football tournament.Perhaps the Financial Markets day will result in a continuation of our re rating
Re: Todays Trading update - good news! In the past there have been complaints that management pay themselves too much. I feel particularly critical of other companies where it seems that senior management s=are rewarded even for failure. If this company goes off the boil a any time, thne I will feel that way again. In the meantime they are helping my portfolio grow on the basis of success. Since I am in my 70s and since the Conservatives are at last facing up to the guaranteed - not likely - situation of ageing over the coming years, this all helps me to prepare for basically looking after myself in the last quarter of my life. This gives me a stronger feeling of independence, that much iundervalued feature of our lives. They have also taken on the false argument that you have bought your house so that you may pass it on to your successors on your death. No, you bought your house so that again you feel independent, and for most of us we have enjoyed a very large capital gain often with the help of tax advantages in the payment lof mortgages. We can downsize and probably have a significant capital nest egg. During our lives we have also had the opportunity to build up large tax free savings via various forms, the latest being ISAs. All of this of course assumes that our incomes are larger than our expenditure and we can afford to put aside current expenditure for future benefit. Most of us come into the world with nothing, and we certainly cant take it with us, so we have to support ourselves and ours - our responsibility, not the state's - and still leave something over via our tax contributrions for the state to support others who cannot truly help themselves. That is called a civilised society. Anyway. enough of the ramblings of an older person and back to GVC. I look forward to their next acquisition, and trust that as with the last one they do their homework and have the skills to absorb and add value to any future acquisition. In this way, I look forward to seeing an SP of 900p in the not too distant future. After all, even with good odds, my distant future cannot be too distant!
