Hi Leem1 you did well to get out when you did, I think I may have an idea why the price is still falling, Schroder sold 3.22mill shares in September 2021 , taking their share of the company down from 9.27% to 3.61% (I do not recall a RSM from the company on this though) ,It would take many weeks for the brokers to dispose of the stock given the low level of dealing. It is now December and hopefully they have found a home for the 3.11 million shares.
At the 10 Dec 2021, this is the state of the Major Share holders Obotritia 10.72%, Griffiths Richard 7.97%, Octopus 5.87% Rosetta 5.64% ,Arix capt5.26%, Schoder 3.61%, The Invus Group 3.04%, Evans Sir Christopher 2.95%, Evans Mark 1.56%, Spreadex 1.17%, The only purchases from the above from September 2021 are from Invus group why bought 1.73 mill shares and Aberdeen Asset who bought 0.59 mill shares. None of the Major share holders have sold except Schroder.
With over 3.22 million share being offloaded the there will always be a downward pressure on the SP.
As a LTSH I hope next year will bring a rise in the SP and no more large sales from the big players.
