I think that the reason that the price fell today is that a deal is quite close and when it arrives everyone likes to say it is more than the last closing price and it would not surprise me that the share price is manipulated to have a lower price so that it can be said what a good deal when it arrives.I certainly would think anything under £2 would not be good
The markets just seem really strange today, like they just don't know how far to fall but they want to fall because of the Ukraine situation next stage.
You would think people would be piling into Ted now, even if they get the lower end of sale predictions, its still a nice 15-20% lift from here.
You wouldn't think this was dropping like this if they are thinking the next bid bids were going to be in the 160 -180 mark very strange today.
Cannot understand today's movements.More buys than sells .Sells quite small volumes and the price is still lower.I am sure we will hear about a bid either by the end of this week or early next.
Can’t see volume on my app, so not too negative then?
Look at that spread. Terrible. Not only that but have u noticed the sells are in single digits. Others look like buys.

Very little news or leaks over the long weekend with the exception of one of the so called experts predicting 170 to 190 which a nimber have been saying for weeks.This was the level proit to the recovery last year and as each day passes I think the final price will be higher for the BOD to put to shareholders
S-C expect a share price of between £1.70-£2.00 I'm missing out already here but cannot free any money up yet so I hope this waits for a week or so but I think its going to start running soon.
But who knows.
I thinks that's low and may risk being rejected. The equity in the business (ignoring the cash) is 135gbp million with very low debt.
Thats not much extra for future earnings, the name and infrastructure thats in place.
I tried to Google the article but couldn't find it. Be interested to see how they got to that number
Some encouraging weekend press suggesting at least mid 170,s and Sycamore are one of some serious players, so interested to see what the best offer is over the coming days.
( it was either the Daily mail or the Times by the way, read so much stuff I cannot remember which one )
Another slight reduction by Barclays with their short
First came 85 , average 1.05
I first came in at 175 but have managed to average down to 131
Anyone? I bought it at 135p
Taken a smidgeon off the short side
There is a few prices where they think it could be anything up to 200 takeover price, but are the board going to definitely sell TED, even if the takeover price is as low as 160, or could they say to low we are walking away without putting it to the shareholders.
On the 12th of may 2021 the share price peaked at 2.12 and that was after the share issue so surely the offers must be at least 2 pounds.
I think noe the takeout price will be £1.90 to over £2 .It has to be around that for the BOD to put to shareholders.Remember last year it was nearly £1.70 before the rcovery so I am sur to save face the BOD will want to achieve an offer price significantly above that
Predicting the takeout price is tricky and it really depends on how desperately the buyer wants it. One has to think that the minimum is 170. It would be great to get over the 200 mark.
Could be higher if there is a bidding war - takeout price of £2 plus
It will be sold for around £1.70-£1.90.
Does anyone know if TED will be sold now, like if an offer says comes in at like 170-180 then will the board put it to sharehplders, or can the board refuse it and say we are not selling.
They said there would be a second phase of bidding - with possibly just the two remaining - Barclays closing their short could also see a price increase?
