Sell or Hold24 Apr 2021 12:59
I sold yesterday mainly because there are arguably better shares out there that could recoup losses quicker (prd, zphr, boil, echo, senx, adv) plus I'm generally impatient as I didn't want to hang around to 2022-23.
So should you hold in the hope it rises eventually or sell now and do the above or buy back in after the consolidation?
The usual pattern is that the sp will dip below the Open Offer price and will remain there until the overhang has gone which could take many months, any spikes will be sold in to by the LL thus keeping the sp in a very narrow range.
The big question is why take part in the OO when you will almost certainly be able to pay less on the open market (happens nearly every time), the only time I've seen the opposite is companies with good assets and crucially no debts. A big red flag for me in the rns is that the LL could potentially get the remaining shares (the slack) at any price lower than 0.35p depending on the current sp.
As for holding, I've seen the sp of many companies in a similar financial situation slowly drift down where eventually the remaining assets get sold to cover the bod's wages or where they can't get placings away at which point it normally becomes a shell company and delists, pretty sure that won't happen here.
In BPC favour, it's does have good assets but it just needs to get a grip on it's finances and stop saying they're fully funded when obviously they're not.
P.S. As for my bet with Irene and the fact that I'm no longer a shareholder this will be my last post here, GLA.
