How is it possible that the s.p can drop when there was a 2:1 ratio on shares bought/sold?.
The previous day there was a 5:4 ratio on sold/bought? .
Both red days ?.
As far as playing the big boys at there own game ............."don't report good news or the s.p will go up before we mop up" is one game big boys play.
Obviously my opinion only of what a cynical person might say.

Do not rely on the buy/sell indicator shown it is often wrong, for example this afternoon's 4.4m sell is actually a buy. However, don't trust big boys/ MMs / anything you read on a bb, is fair comment.
@Bobby...What you are describing makes a lot of sense in my mind. That would also confirm what I have been thinking from the beginning. They are two separate TR1's. Which makes it a 29% holding which is just below the 30% which would force DB to make an offer to EUZ Share holders. As it is just below this threshold...I suspect they do not want to do that....Intriguing ...however to say the least !! So I guess they are busy effecting "transfers" to legalize their holding of 29%.... !! Obviously trying to do this quietly but too many eagle eyes on this forum. Wonder who c%cked this up ?? !!
Oiltap, maybe it was 2 RNSs because wilhelm as bought exactly the same number of shares as have his company, in which case 2 x 14.47% holdings. Just a maybe, because otherwise a correction RNS should be issued.
Hi Oiltap...I fired off an email to Dan. Will let you know if I receive a response. :-)
No Response from Dan .... I am wondering whether the BOD have signed an NDA with DB hence no communication to shareholders ??
I am with you Bobby....But I asked a simple question and expected a simple response. THis is very unlike Dan as he normally responds quickly. The question I asked was "Kindly can you clarify the holdings of DB as two separate TR1's were issued at exactly the same time on the same day..."......surely he would have responded by now to such a simple question. That's why I am guessing possibly under NDA.... This all makes no sense to me at the moment.
Thanks Bobby...Good point.....who is regulating the goings on here then ? Maybe we should ask them ?
@ Oiltap...is there any ruling that compels anyone to complete a TR1 within a specified number of days on reaching 3% threshold ? If so how many days ?
The notification to the issuer shall be effected as soon as possible, but not later than four trading days in the case of a non-UKissuer and two trading days in all other cases.....
So this regulation has been breached in my opinion....Specifically the two 350m trades of a few days ago.
Thanks Oiltap...:-)
Should we not then report it as market abuse ?

A 340m trade doesn't equate to 3%. 2 of though well maybe it's one in Husbands name and one in wifes name.
one in my name and one in my wifes name, orders placed at same time, could be the answer.

@ Oiltap. Thanks for the advice. I emailed Dan again as per below on top of my last email which he has not as yet responded to.....
Further to the below I also noticed that there were 2 x 340 million trades on the LSE.
As a steward of the company, do you perhaps understand the nature of these trades and can you explain them perhaps ?
If not do you mind reporting them to FCA as there were no TR1's issued for them.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
@Oiltap...still no response from Dan...really weird.
@Oiltap....I got a response from Dan......
Apologies for the delay as I have been traveling.
It might be easiest if you give Laurence a call on this.
Lol....So still no luck !!
On the contrary, it means that LR is definitely still at the helm, even if it’s not always entirely clear to us which way he’s steering...
Drill it, prove it, sell it, is still my view
