wtf dropped to 71p on the bid.
seems to be good support at 73p.
likely i'll be holding for longer. that way gains may be much better than expected by many at the moment. the sun will shine here one day.
Haha
Thanks Jonnie5x - congratulations on your own success - a win is a win.
Back to TED, which is looking very dismal sadly. Not sure I understand it.
Must be down to company sentiment, but considering how much buying there was directly after the open offer at levels much higher than this, I'm surprised. I had always thought there was a danger of 75p - despite topping up my offer shares at 97p and 80p. However, I didn't expect it to stay down here for long.
If it goes below 70p, I'll probably come in for some more, but really hoping for a reversal upwards.
from 72p to 76p in a flash.
well done Knowbody ! (always good to see a success story)
i also got lucky on boohoo, on Tues i bought 1000 shares at 252, then sold 272
(but only held the shares for like 15mins)(, so my profit not as good as yours, but will keep me in beer tokens for a weekend)
yesterday my Boo bottle went, even though i was very temped at £2, i didnt want to hold overnight (I need the sleep, lol)
AML/Mars are more mini worries of mine
"boohoo board/stock is madness at moment (may be a win other there)"
Be careful over there.
I got tempted in yesterday by some ramping (which I rarely pay attention to) - bought at 250, watched it fall to 200, held my nerve with the very tips of my fingers and eventually got back out today at 279, with £1400 profit. But it was one hell of an emotional roller coaster!
Would love to see TED rise like that, but the fundamentals here are vastly different.
engines just warming up at the moment. patience!
Houston prepare for takeoff..
Considering the situation TED have made some proactive decisions firstly the sale and leaseback of the head office and secondly the rights issue. Although there is tough competition TED has decent brand recognition and what it offers is quite unique. Maybe another consideration is the slavery act. Surely protestors today should have more of an issue with companies taking advantage of slave labour to pulling down statues of people who were practising it hundreds of years ago. Having said that the young are supposed to be more environmentally friendly but are happy to leave their copious amounts of rubbish on the beech to be washed out to sea. Who knows but there seems to be a lot of hypocrisy going on at them moment. I wonder how many of those protestors were wearing items from boohoo... Anyway I believe TED now represents good value at this level and I have been toping up. GLA
with the recent placing , hanging around below 75p is a concern to me
i get a feeling this will slowly trend lower, i once followed Thomas cook down, kept averaging and ignored the signs (got burned)
GL to all, keep strong & try avoid losing money if you cant't make it
boohoo board/stock is madness at moment (may be a win other there)
What a load of tosh.......how ridiculous
TED's online offering is decent, high marketing presence, slick website, combined with a good quality product. Think the financials are the only thing that will stick a rocket up this thing
I am hopeful that this will happen but what needs to happen for this to occur? There is only bad news on the high streets? John Lewis just closed 8 stores across the UK with 1300 job losses as more business is going online. Is Ted's online business robust enough ? So many questions the BOD need to answer.
SP touched 73.5p yesterday. i think that was the march low? hopefully a bounce from here. its long overdue.
" Frustrating I can't even buy tried a number of time this morning"
if you look, you will see quite a few OFF BOOK and Off London trades, with some OFF BOOK and on the London market - these shares will be traded and not even be made available to you ...

shocking. there was a buy at 74.20p 22k shares. buyer did well there.
Frustrating I can't even buy tried a number of time this morning
expecting a bounce off 76p.
"it's a well known fact that huge profitable funds buy shares in companies specifically to lose money"
Well-known to many perhaps but not to me.
What's the advantage of the practice to the fund managers, who presumably want to receive dividends?
Seems like an odd practice to me, but as I said, I hadn't heard of it before.
bloodninja - just to add I believe the Toscafund Board and Investment execs are incentivised to lose money. It's apparently apparently more 'ethical' and creates a better work culture.
Just imagine the horror if this rises 100% in the next few weeks.
GLA. 75p support. You don't need me to remind you these were 10x the current price a year ago.
Russell has lost his marbles, it's a well known fact that huge profitable funds buy shares in companies specifically to lose money, how dare you come here and suggest otherwise. Toscafund became the size it is through a successful campaign of losing money, and investors were so thrilled with their ability to do this that they gave them even more money.
I agree - although someone was suggesting his record is patchy.
I'm almost tempted to buy more, because there could be quite a bounce, but I feel cautious about it really.

i dont get why you seem to need to watch this constantly , as if your life depended on it... what is the hurry?
Your expectations seem a bit out of line with the overall market retail sentiment ...we are in July just ahead of the August lull
..and share prices are generally up one day and down the next...
Personally I would give it a rest and make a decision to just come back in September or just throw in the towel and walk away
He doesn’t keep increasing his stake to loose money!!!
