Unbelievable schoolboy error by Z7795.
In December 2018 BOOM weren't just over £1. This was pre the 1 for 100 consolidation. The share price was actually just over 1p. Tobin purchased 9 times before the consolidation took place in June 2019. EG he purchased 545,000 on 26/10/18 at 1.25. Not £1.25 but 1.25p.
MT's average purchase price since the consolidation (92 buys) is currently under £4. I will add the above 9 purchases (all below his post consolidation average) and give the absolute average he has paid. It will come down a little with those 9 added.
Embarrassing drivel being spouted and passed off as fact.
that's very kind of u to say thank u but u should care about these things. that's why the stock price trades no where near the level is should be. if the stock can't trade up when its going well, what's gonna happen if the world goes into recession and business starts to deteriorate? i bet boom won't struggle to go down further then. u should be very concerned as to why the stock won't rally u really should. i know i am. i get told i'm misleading but bearhunter doesn't. no one ever questions the ****e he puts up. average of 399p haha. mathematically impossible haha
I have to say you have an encyclopaedic level of information. But it’s on the wrong subject and your always trying to steer towards shareholdings. There’s often an element of spite which is not good. If you could direct your attention to what really matters and that’s the business. No balanced, or sane , investor gives two hoots about the averages of Tobin, Candy, etc. and dates purchased. In my opinion your stirring things up. Let’s see how you do on analytics of the business.
Just those two purchases 59k at 102 and 36k at 1900p make his average 783p. Those are the two biggest trades he's ever done I believe. Appreciate he continues to buy down here but lets not forget about the multiple purchases he made back in 2022
Tobin built Telecitygroup from 10p Redbus days. Telecitygroup was sold to equinix for 1145p (£2.35B) a share in 201. Looking forward to see the return on his 4.9% holding in AB with a 399 average....question. How on earth did u get to the conclusion that his average is 399p? His average is 980.16p. His first purchase was 59k shares at just above 100p. Are u totally discounting all the very expensive ones he purchases. How about the 36k at over 1900p? Feel free to go and check the data on Bloomberg. Don't take my word for it. His average is 980.16p
Acast since the start of this year....+7.11%% vs Boom -22.31%
Boombang...I just chose a year because it was a nice round standard start point. From the high in podcasting, to the slump and to now hopeful recovery. I can do whenever u want. Since Acasts IPO in June 2021its dropped -71%. In that same time period Boom has dropped -64.96%
Are you trying to be the fountain of knowledge on Audioboom.
I’ll highlight your ACAST post. You wanted to prove a point so you chose the price action from January 2023. Why this date. Why not since the beginning of 2024, or six months since November which come up with very different results.
Boom
Jan 2023 432p
Nov 2023 150p
Jan 2024 285p
April 2024 240p
ACAST
Jan 2023 SK7.39
Nov 2023 SK 9.00
Jan 2024 SK 9.99
April 2024 10.60
Most here can work out the percentages.
I’m sure most here will see you’re just cooking the books.
Last one I promise. Candy's average on his Boom holdings....226.9p
His average on his 1.4mln.....194.34p coz he's NEVER done a single trade to change his holdings since 18th Dec 2020. He has some fantastic timing that Peter coz straight after he got that position they rallied for 17mths straight but he never did a single thing with it. Odd. Guess he couldn't have sold any if he had already lent them out
I'm just looking at Bloomberg data so don't shout at me if u disagree coz I'm only going by that. Tobin declared his first holding in Boom on the 31st Dec 2018 when they were just over £1. Would u like to guess what his average is on his total holding? 980.16p!! What really fvcked him was when he increased his position by 33k shares on the 28th March 2022 at nearly £19. All those silly purchases ruined his average. So on a positive, no one wants these back up to £10 than Michael Tobin
I'll give u 3 words "u are wrong." According to Bloomberg he had 343k shares on the 31st Dec 2020. He now has 316k. So he might have bought 3 times last year but over that stated period he's been a net seller. Why didn't u tell the board about the sells he's done?
There are many things Z7795 is wrong about.
One example... three words... Roger Charles Maddock. A NED of Audioboom. Holds almost 2% of BOOM. Added 3 times last year.
I have np agenda. As I've said 1mln times I'm long. I'm just pointing out a few things I've noticed. If I was short I would hardly call it "increasingly desperate" while the stock sits at 235p Profitable maybe, but definitely desperate :-)
"increasingly desperate?"....these are 235p no? haha
What am I wrong about Rifkin?
Wrong again Z7795.
You're either ignorant of the facts or lying to suit your increasingly desperate agenda.
Acast the only real podcast firm we can compare against Boom as its listed in Sweden. Since 1st Jan 2023 its up +62%. Boom in the same period.....down -44.5%. We are in the wrong stock haha. That's the Bonnier/Candy effect for u. Boom will come good one day but not while all that crap is still hanging over it.
If u go by the Bloomberg holders list do you know that there is only one of the top 30 holders in Boom who has increased their stake in Boom in the last 3yrs and that's obviously Tobin. In 3yrs! None and I mean none of the other 29 major holders have increased their stakes in Boom while the stock has dropped from £22 to to Friday's 235p. U would have thought at least one of them might of wanted to average down no? I wonder why none of them fancy buying more? Don't you find that odd?
Evidence of Bonnier selling down in Boom? The latest TR1 filing on the 19th March from Mrs Bonnier where she no longer holds Boom. Sold 599,467 shares. E&L holding down from 1.3mln shares to 150k as of the 19th March as well. Will that do?
I laughed because it makes no sense. Bonnier family hold around 500m AAA shares, recent placing at 2p. Debt owed is 1.4m. In the requisition they have committed to pay 1.4m in escrow until the EGM process is completed. This does not suggest Bonnier family are bankrupt and AB is not “the go to”. It is abundantly clear the real shorters&manipulators are using the Bonnier family to hide their illicit activities. It may have worked if they refrained from spreading FUD.
I don’t think I have missed anything. If 30m was used to open short positions (suggested in court documents I read) the money is not off the table and there is a monthly payment on the borrow. “Buy shares as cheaply as possible” if party A was hoping to destroy party B, they would be banking on party B to capitulate at the lows.. short covered, return shares to BOS and live happily ever after. Now it seems party B has deep pockets and no intentions to capitulate AB shares. This would leave the shorting party in a right pickle. AB going from strength to strength, making record numbers, stronger backdrop, ad spend on the upturn, MT buying like a dog on heat and M&A activity looming in the next 12 months is a recipe for disaster for these shorting manipulators. Now if the shorting party was leveraged to hilt, the monthly payments on the borrow can become very painful. Could this be the reason NC is liquidating his MTL shares?
Anyway, enough conspiracies for one day, I am sure the truth will surface sooner rather than later. One thing we can both agree on “massive manipulation”. I for one would rather be long than short. I had a very good week on Tesla, profits into AB next week. I strongly believe Stuart Last and Mike Tobin will lead us to victory.. slight sniff of a incoming bid and these manipulators will be blown to smithereens.
This spat between certain shareholders has no bearing on the business and I am confident the share price will return to fair value sooner rather than later.. said our esteemed leader Stuart Last.
It was merely conspiracy theory number 2. You could laugh it off, or accept that’s there’s some truth within there. I don’t see that 192 could be shorting, they seem to be caught with their pants down already. What you seem to miss is that if there was a deal with BOS, then 30M has already been taken off the table. There’s no upside for a shareholder if they’ve already collected on the upside, what they need to do is just hand over the shares (as cheaply as possible). The outstanding debacle remains irrespective between 2 parties whose claim against each other could easily wipe one another out if judged. Is it better to keep the delays going on and on until someone capitulates ? I remember not so long ago that the share price rallied on rumours of a settlement of this case. it was unfounded and the share price slipped again. It is so simple what’s going on here and it could point in the direction of massive manipulation.
Zak the contradictions and holes in your posting history are abysmal. A blind man can see you play a key role in manipulating AB’s share price. I just hope AB board and regulators act fast to track you down. Your posts strongly suggest you are conspiring with a number of parties to manipulate AB’s share price. I don’t believe you have anything against the company, but you certainly have something personal against this Bonnier family. Your motive is clearl.. you are manipulating AB’s share price to destroy your enemies Bonnier family.
From research and speaking to reliable sources. How do you know he didn’t save aaqua?
Zak what evidence do you have the Bonnier family have been selling down?
You have pushed this narrative for a good part of 18 months. On one hand you are saying Bonnier family have lent their shares to short AB, on the other you claim he is or was a distressed seller.. which is it?
“The stock is going no where until the court case is resolved” we have witnessed this statement from you in the past. If I was a investigator, you would be top of the list. The conviction in your statement confirms you play a key role in conspiring to manipulate the share price for the last two years.
I don’t know how you came to the conclusion I like Robert Bonnier, I don’t know him or your history with him from AAA. I reached out to my contacts after you persistently spammed this board with FUD and justifying it by blaming the Bonnier family and AAA. I proved you wrong as a liar many times. Do you remember when you intentionally misled this board by thinking AAA were dumping shares? I posted a statement by AAA director “they have not sold a single share and have no intention to sell”
Zak has gone above and beyond to spread FUD in order to keep the share price suppressed. I think in the very near future the chap hiding behind the avatar zak7795 will be globe trotting to avoid authorities in many jurisdictions.
why have none of u ever question 192 pte's position? why while the stock got pumped up to 2223p he never sold a share. why when they collapsed they never did a thing? don't any of u think that's strange? boom doesn't trade on fundamentals we all know that. the company even stated their concerns on that last week. the business is doing great and what's just happened? they have gone from 320p back down to 235p. these scumbags control boom at present. that's why no proper fund wants to buy in even though boom is a great little company. before u **** me off bearhunter if u don't agree with that i know ur intentions aren't genuine in boom cos some of the +ve stuff u say about bonnier is very concerning. the super rich bonnier, a man who's only ever run firms to insolvency. fact! the super rich bonnier who has only sold boom in recent years even at these stupid low prices. so is he broke? super rich and doesn't care or stupid? he's certainly one of them. the super rich fella getting sued by anyone whos ever done business with him. aaqua.....i presume are in insolvency. what's the receiver gonna do with their 403k shares? anyone ever wondered that? according to the tr1's mrs bonnier now out. e&l (mr bonnier) has 150k left. this is my theory. candy wants to ruin bonnier for conning him and knows he's got no money so the last thing he wants to boom shares rallying so bonnier can raise more cash. candy doesn't want boom shares down here but maybe he can wait longer than bonnier can. just my thoughts
