LRD, Fantastic Chart........ LRD Laird PLC (Designs and manufactures wireless and other advanced electronics components)Just love this chart with the staircase technicals I look for , its a kind of hybrid of the Elliot Wave System and as proved very profitable in the past, very profitable indeed. It was there staring me in the face on my hot watch list but didnt pick it up until 20 minutes before the close. My target SP on the chart could prove to be very conservative...............fingers crossed.

Re: Laird price plunge This may be of help?" Numis Securities has maintained its 'buy' recommendation for Laird, but highlighted a slowdown in organic growth at the electronic components supplier towards the end of the year.The company, which designs technology used in mobile devices and supplies companies such as Apple, said it would meet consensus forecasts for 2014.Numis estimates that organic growth for the year in US dollar terms should be around 8%."While there was a FX tailwind in the fourth quarter, the organic growth rate in US$ revenue at circa 3% was lower than in the first nine months of 11%, largely due to tough comps and some supply shortages in smartphones," said Numis analyst Nick James.The broker has amended its forecasts for 2015 to reflect the benefit from a strong US dollar, offset by a "more conservative" underlying revenue growth forecast of 7%, down from its initial estimate of 10%.The net result of these changes leaves earnings estimates for this year more or less unchanged.However, James said he still sees upside risk: "Given continued investment in infrastructure, R&D and sales network, at this growth rate operating margin expansion would be somewhat muted, although there is good scope for top line outperformance which would drive operational gearing."Numis maintained its 395p target price for Laird's stock, which was down nearly 8% at 305.8p by 10:27 on Friday"

Re: Laird price plunge HI,Thank you for the well thought out and deeply analytical post.........not.Please give your reasoning for this post so others can judge whether to invest or not.Post like this ( and equally the useless rose tinted buys) are of no use to man nor beast.

Laird price plunge The company's just come out with what seems a reassuring statement, yet the price falls by over six percent. Is it just a case of "buy the rumour, sell the fact", in which case we can probably case the price to recover before too long, or is something else going on? Anyone got some ideas?
