Banning shorting shares is NOT a good idea....shorting gives the market transparency and there would be less trust in the market without shorting.
As I repeatedly said...
How can anyone borrow money they dont have to buy shares and send prices UP ?.... yet they do and everyone cheers the fact, even if they send prices beyond their true value ... causing GREED
If you can allow that....then you will always be allowed to borrow shares you dont have to send prices DOWN ... when you think the earnings of a company will decline in the near future ..it largely causes FEAR amongst those who do not have enough knowledge about markets ... that is NOT the markets problem but individuals
The market is a TRADING venue based on data that predicts future prospects .... if people can borrow to fuel Bitcoin GREED and speculation then the same has to happen at the other end
Ending shorting is a BAD idea
GutterSnipe. "our time will come" Hopefully your time will come very soon, back to the gutter you moron!! & you think you are so clever? You are a pathetic idiot. Just get a life. Sad or what? But appart from that, another good day today, so lets hope it continues.
Not surprised with the potential takeover price!
Going by Iliad's offer, which was rejected, the sum of parts of Vodafone is at least double the equity value today, after stripping out net debt.
Petty cash to the Magnificent 5.
Microsoft will be interesting.......they already are investing in the IOT business which will be a standalone from 1 April - surprised we have not heard more on that.
Make short selling shares illegal in the UK, like Germany and others.
Short selling of stocks in the UK causes instability in companies share prices. In many cases £millions can be wiped off the value of a company by coordinated groups of short sellers spreading misinformation and rumours, causing investors to panic and sell their stock.
How on earth can some other company loan out something you own without your consent and the company or person who has borrowed it use it to influence the market in the opposite direction with the massive percentages of shares they are able to borrow and not own outright? Its fraudulent and corrupt, legal theft authorised by the government and needs to be banned and stopped.

Feb Options close tomorrow the 16th , so that could be why the price is ticking up
If you look at the March Options it will give you a signal on how the Option players see things going
Oh dear oh dear gutter. Every time you open your mouth the SP does the opposite of what you say.
I did warn you to keep your mouth shut.
Explains the rise then, the sell off after Iliad was a false one and the Italian is still on the block, presumably at a price more pallatable to the BoD.
Vodafone's Italian CEO can't even broker a deal with the Italians. Time she went and Vod hire an outsider.
It have rolled over agane sadley.
Wot a amasing share this is.
Remembber, buy low and sell high.
" The EU has signalled it is open to allowing mergers in the telecoms sector in Europe, a development that would support an industry lacking the scale to boost ageing infrastructure, in a confidential draft paper seen by the Financial Times.
“The fragmentation [of the sector] could impact the ability of operators to reach the scale needed to invest in the networks of the future, in particular in view of cross-border services,” said the draft paper on digital infrastructure, which is under review by the EU executive.
Brussels said it may act to ensure all players, including big technology companies, pay for the use of telco infrastructure “to ensure a regulatory level playing field and equivalent rights and obligations for all actors”.
Garonne, the is no middle ground with you is there. For you VOD is either the best thing since sliced bread, or the worst dog on the FTSE. Take some pills.
Unfortunately, it hasn't made any difference to this dog. Looks like it's back to square one. And on a day when the FTSE is going up!
If Vod does not go bust it will recover eventually, we just need to be patient
In addition, Vodafone (VOD) may have received a new offer for its Italian unit, according to the report, which cited people following the matter.
I hoped that Hatem Dowidar joining Vodafone's board meant E& had reached 20%. Apparently, that is not the case. However, it could mean that important issues have to be discussed in the near future and the most likely one is a new offer for Italy.
