Well, the company should really give an update on what proportion of their production is shut down at the moment. The word from factories is that many companies have their workers staying home, waiting for gas price stability and a recovery in order levels. From what I've been told, it pretty bad in the main producing areas of Spain and Italy. If these folks are bucking that trend, then they must be magicians.
@aks343
You never mentioned what your porridge tasted like with your added flavours?
@alfista
What's so iffy about the sp rising? Its never iffy when it goes down?
By the way, someone is buying 1 share at a time. Not sure what this nonsense is all about, is that you covering your short position one piece at a time?
@alfista
Not sure why your post was removed but I got your back. If there is anything negative you want to post about the world ending and armageddon etc, I'll make sure nobody dares gang up on you
Regrettable that you ganged up and got my post removed. Nothing incorrect was stated.
There is an energy crisis throughout Europe, surely nobody can deny that !
You seem to be determined to pick fights with everyone, very strange.
The challenges remain, nothing has been notified acknowledging them, so they are still valid.
A reduction in holding notified today adds to the puzzle of last week. Who took the sp up so sharply, and why? Perhaps there will be more notifications, otherwise it looks a bit iffy to me.
@fredhunt
Interesting day/week ahead. I'm hopeful for my little investment.
@alfista
Energy crisis or shorting crisis? Have you closed your position or are you still fighting?
@aks343
Did you vomit into your porridge last week or have you planned it into your diary next week?
Let me know how that one goes.
It was definately a very interesting week with a hugh close. Maybe one of the shorters closed their position? I guess we will find out tomorrow. Regardless of what triggered the share price increase this week gone, I would be quite concerned if I was a large shorter. My guess is that shorters will either go in harder to put downward pressure on the stock, or give up and potentially cuase it to increase exponentially.
@sharedetect
Let's hope this £9-10 prediction is better than @aks343's attempts to criminalise Geoff.
Doesn't matter how much sugar he puts in his tea, its going to be tasting bitter.
I held my nerve as this was always looking likely. I think when it hits around 6.50 this week, most shorters will be on their way out and it should rise rapidly to around 9-10 where it belongs.
He stopped the Yacht and the cocaine ended up being nothing more than sugar for his tea!
@sharedetect
Things are looking a little brighter for you.
I wish I had bought back more shares after selling. I didn't buy enough when the price dropped.
There's rumours that Boldhaven is closing its positions too. Have you heard anything?
Also, rumour has it that @aks343 intercepted Geoff Wildboys yacht and arrested him with 3 tonnes of cocaine. Any idea what really happened?
Also fully expecting the story tellers to be on here again tomorrrow with some more breaking news about Geoff Wilding being part of the Russian Mafia or the Colombian cartel…
Everytime the SP rises, they come running out!
Blackrock started closing their short position last week… my guess is some of the smaller shorters are following suit.
Any day now this will absolutely blow up, if you’re thinking of topping up to bring down your average I’d probably be thinking about doing it sooner rather than later.
Forgot to say:
no RNS or media items I can find; interim results aren't due till the end of Nov and no apparent closing of shorts, so still can't understand such a big move today.
No idea! But the SP has spiked - though not this much - once in Sept and once in Oct. It then came most of the way back down. Maybe some big short-term traders.
I am thinking of topping up as got in just below £9 but deffo not today! When the SP drops back it seems to revert around the 50 day SMA so may reconsider it then.
What is going on here? Absolute madness and it’s just the start…
...I'm obviously referring to aks343...to be completely clear.
Like Fred, I'm not quite sure what your interest is here - clearly you don't have VCP shares,
and whilst it is good to have a round of views, yours seem like 1 of the 4 riders of the apocalypse!
Each to their own, but you need to come up with some more solid evidence than just Nostradamus predictions if your to seeking to make any sense to users on this board.
Absolute nonsense about spruce house having to liquidate VCP position. They’ve just increased their position by over 2 million shares over the last few days.
Having spoken with Benji at Spruce House, they’ve got a HUGE order for when the results are announced and they’re allowed to buy!
Regarding the fund redemptions, absolute nonsense, they’re locked in til Feb 2025 so please quit already with all the rubbish you’re sprouting.
Hold on tight - Here it comes!
...looks like 4.55% - Coltrane 2.32% / Boldhaven 1.32% & Marble .91%
Blackrock height was .9% in August and have decreased since then several times but have now come out altogether from a position of .49%
I'm not professional enough to know exactly what all this means, but no doubt they are all maneuvering around at VCP and shareholders expense!
Would however like a little more clarity on their printed results and this in turn would make it less likely for shorters manipulating uncertainties...Burford is another that springs to mind with this sort of problem.
Personally I don't like shorting whatever the arguments are either way, and only occasionally (and could be done by other means) do they stumble on real shortcomings or corruption.
@aks343, I did't post because i did not deem it necessary. My previous answer was very clear. You claimed that Spruce House may not have the capital and may need to pull out of VCP and I highlighted clearly that it wasn’t the case if they have just purchased 1,4m shares. Whether they purchased from another institutional investor or not, is not really relevant to your argument. That said, SH purchased more shares than Vulcan sold.
Anyway back to important developments… interesting to see Blackrock reduce it’s short position to the lowest since it started shorting in May. Could this be a sign of things to come? I wonder what the interest is on loaning VCP stocks now. Anyone have access to that information?
I guess we will see movement in one direction following the full release of financials at the end of the month.
BIG NEWS!!
Blackrock have started to close their short position - You’ll be hearing a lot more than just crickets now!!
I don’t know on whose behalf you have conducted all your research, nor will I investigate your little list of stocks, but it seems very diligent of you to have enlightened us all so much. However, for such a diligent chap, you have omitted the most relevant information... or maybe it just didn't serve your interest?
Please see RNS from the 13th of October where Spruce House increased their shareholding in VCP by 1.4m shares. Maybe you should review all RNS's whilst you're there. They are much more relevant to the trading price than your little investigation.
Seeing as you like investigating the portfolios of institutions, have you conducted a similar investigation for the performance of the shorting institutions (Blackrock maybe)? Probably not, that would just be counter intuitive. Or maybe it’s just that it’s (literally) a bit too close to home?
I won't sit here a list all the poor performaing positions of the shorters nor the investors. Its just best not to cherry pick your information to support a preconceived argument.
As a small shareholder myself, should I also list the performance of all of my other stocks? or is that equally as irrelevant as the informative post below?
Only important factor is Victoria management, not trading positions of shareholders' other investments. It would be great if we could keep posts relevant to VCP and factors that impact VCP stock price. Surely this is the aim of this forum, no a place for the propaganda divisions of shorting institutions. Hence why most make posts during working their office.
Yes, there are clearly difficulties in the market, no one is denying that. Yet I am of the opinion (right or wrong) that this is more than reflected in the share price decline from 12 pounds already. Anyway, whilst the share price performace this weeek was poor, I was pleased to see it was nothing more than an increased short position, which is very close to the levels seen in 2018, afterwhich there was a huge rebound in price. Will history repeat itself? We shall see over the next few months I expect.
@alfista
You won't see any of this history on boss man, because it's all in the caped crusaders head.
Obviously been reading too many comics while getting high
