As i have said earlier.
You have commented several time now and have only managed to bring up negativies. You might try and sprinkle a bit of glitter on your statements but they are still underhand negative comments. I will leave that with you.
Point72 Asset Management have increased short position throughout April >> and either going deep or will be getting a bit twitchy now (hoping the later). If Summer goes OK - and we make up for the Christmas we didn’t have - and new SLT get feet under table (all IF) I can’t see why one would short this stock in preference over others?? I have some concerns over European assets but recent RNS note on France leads me to think the downside is baked in. As awful as it sounds if Europe needs to raise COVID walls to rest of world so it can enjoy a ‘European quality of life’ it will. That life relies on retail, entertainment, city living. Good for HMSO if not the wider world.
Looks like news of Harry Badham being appointed to the role of Chief Development and Asset Repositioning Officer is filtering through.
They should have RNS'd though for a bigger impact on the SP....
Doesn't look like it, previously shorts were 6.71, then 6.80, now they are 6.81. 4th most shorted on LSE
Something pushing the whole sector up today and I suspect the shorts are beginning to sweat now. 40p the 42p and we are away. Short tracker shows 6.8% still. Worth keeping an eye on st to see if there is any movement.
Are shorters finally on the run?
I suppose many years of making profits and not losing money to "market manipulation" is all the proof I need. If I ever lose money that is down to my decision, not market manipulation.
I agree that there is manipulation of some AIM shares but with HMSO over 26 million shares are traded each day through SETS so it's difficult to see how MMs manipulate it.
Owls, if you think institutions won't and don't abuse the volatility naturally forming in the market to make a profit in other words, manipulate it. Then you're more naive than I thought.
Owls.....Can you prove the markets are NOT manipulated?
We await your evidence....
GER_PAUL,
"this was driven down massively just before news of the sell off happened which then pulled back yesterday".
What evidence do you have to back up this statement?
Awesome thanks guys
Hammerson has announced that Harry Badham has been appointed to the role of Chief Development and Asset Repositioning Officer. In this role, Harry will oversee the development teams working on destination repositioning across the UK, Ireland, and France.
Harry, was most recently UK Head of Development at AXA IM Alts, where he led £3.5bn of major investment, development and repositioning projects from start to completion for a range of funds and joint venture investors. Working on urban projects across a mix of workspace, retail, leisure, civic and residential space including most notably 22 Bishopsgate, Assembly Bristol and 6 Pancras Square, Harry has built up extensive expertise across numerous disciplines including design, sustainability, leasing and technology.
Prior to his 10 years at AXA IM Alts, Harry was part of the leadership team at property development company, Allied London, where he was Investment Director. He was involved in delivering over £2bn of urban regeneration including the creation of the 25 acre Spinningfields development in Manchester and the Brunswick Centre in London, alongside other mixed-use schemes across the UK.
A chartered surveyor, Harry began his career at JLL within the corporate finance department having graduated from Bristol University in Civil Engineering.
Rita-Rose Gagné, Hammerson’s Chief Executive, said: “Hammerson has urban assets, developments and a land bank with potential for multi-use city centre destinations. As our portfolio transforms and evolves, it is vital that our team has a broad and varied skills base. Harry will support this by bringing a creative mindset and extensive development and urban mixed-use experience. He also has extensive expertise in managing multiple stakeholders and partners, which will be key as we work on our strategy to maximise value for stakeholders.”
Harry Badham said: “There has never been a greater chance to transform our city centres to create huge social and real estate value by making them more local, more sustainable and more connected. Hammerson’s portfolio offers significant opportunities to unlock this value over the mid to long term. I look forward to the challenge and working with Rita-Rose and the Hammerson team to bring forward the change needed.”

Was there an RNS for the new appointment that I missed?
Cooking on gas now.
You say MMs don't manipulate FTSE250 shares, but this was driven down massively just before news of the sell off happened which then pulled back yesterday. Same has just happened with FGP, pushed down to 82-83p the day before the news off their America part was sold and announced (today)... can't speak for the whole day but it opened 15p higher.
Could be to do with current situation, but all travel stocks were higher yesterday, and RR even held onto some gains which is rare! Even oil was back up amongst some co's..... all seems a little too well timed for people who don't manipulate or have insider info.
HMSO just AXA'S Harry Badham as chief development and asset repositioning officer. Great appointment.
They paid them a little respect today for the deal just done, but probably nowehere near enough imho
It's to pay down the debt and strengthen the balance sheet, while reducing the total exposure to retail which has suffered while housing has boomed. Don't forget their goal is to create exciting, centrally located, experience driven environments which blends home, office and retail spaces. The out of town retail parks don't play into their plans for the future.
I think ximtos got a point, I was thinking along the same lines if why sell off the retail parks? The footfall data says after lockdown was lifted the retail parks recovered closer to pre pandemic levels than the shopping centres.... I dunno if the hmso future plan is looking along other Lines though
