It will even fall lower than the 58 you bought.

Just a correction, should settle between 60-70 in a few days as the market prices in its new acquisitions.

Guys who sold at 75-80 will be back in the low 60s. Technicals seem to be favouring more downside at the moment.

I missed this bus and stopped waiting for it to come round to my target range.. I doubt it will get back to the 34 zone anytime soon but I'll keep watch

buying above 30 bob is a risk in itself

Do you really know what is free fall in a stock or market? The Centum has rosen from low of 14 to high of 84.50 .Going back to a postion it jumped like 71 will not mean a free fall but people are just taking profits(Selling) hoping it will not rise more than that as they hold in fear of a market correction of the same stock. BAT has today risen by 77Kes and after two days it can fall by same margin.

@All@din if u bought @58 i suspect you are a trader rather than an investor. For this sell now and buy back when the price starts moving up again.

Centum will come roaring back once they make a few more positive announcements. The thing about the big shareholders like DJ CK is they just don't sell. It's the speculators and inexperienced that buy and sell on a whim.

This share will make some people cry very soon. They make paper profits and pay zero dividends. People buying at 80 will see dust when they issue another profit warning.

I also bought at the same rate not expecting it to go upwards by that margin.
I was hoping to hold onto it for the next one year or two, but now seems it may plummet to 50 - 60 range.
Dont know whether to sell or hold to it...Sad

Speculators in any market are VERY important. They are the ones who create your opportunity to trade in the first place.
Conventional thinkers waste time building shelters when they are unnecessary and then have no shelters when they need them the most. Socionomists do the opposite.

Yeah, I think the business is great and indeed has a bright future. That's one of the main factors that led me to invest in them.

Someone gave me great advice on another thread, "Never fall in love with stock". That noted Centum has a bright future but the current price is purely speculative and has nothing to do with the company business. As fever fades so will your profit margin. Sell now and buy when it stabilizes.
