Another positive trading update from Plus500 (LON:PLUS) this morning who are "pleased to announce that the strong momentum, previously referred to in its trading update on 20 November 2018, has been maintained through to the year end. Accordingly, with the year ended 31 December 2018 almost complete, the Board anticipates the financial performance will be ahead of current market expectations." The shares are up 8.1%…

Happy Easter Matylda, and Mr C. I did notice that Topps Tiles (LON:TPT) (which I don't hold) announced an acquisition today, which initially seemed to look quite good value... until I saw the amount of debt being taken on; I half wonder if the target would have gone into administration without the takeover.

Learning Technologies (LON:LTG) (on your analysis/watchlist I think Matylda) is up quite a bit on the announcement of their latest amortisation adjustm- I mean acquisition, of Breezy HR ("Breezy") for $12m. In 2018 Breezy reported unaudited revenue of $3.6m (2017: $1.3m) and EBIT of $280k (2017: $826k loss), reflecting the operational leverage of the business as it scales rapidly; 80% (2017: 67%). It looks a…

No value at all while Carclo (LON:CAR) are warning on debt covenants... ...and thanks so much somebody for brightening my day with a thumbs down :-( See Paul's more detailed comments about how he thinks this company is uninvestible. This company has seen one warning after another and a downward trajectory in its price from 120p to its current 20p.
