Why have 2 sells x 400,000 each on 15th May2015 just appeared on the screen.?Why were they not posted on the correct day?Why were there large buys on Tuesday and Wednesday this week with no sells at all on these 2 days?Is this legal?Has the share price been manipulated?Can someone tell me what is going on here?

Can anyone tell me why so many shares have been bought over the last few days and none sold?Is it to do with the AGM tomorrow.Maybe a lot of good news?

This share will fly.

Olddixonian-The new company will have twice the market capitalisation and twice the number of shares.Can't see your problem.You will be no better and noworse off after the consolidation.The bonus will be when the newly formed company's shares take off and I believe they will when all the dust has settled!

Redgetz-I think your calculations are OK.If the merger had taken place yesterday,my calculatios were as follows:= Carphone Warehouse = 336.50 per share -Market Capitalisation £1,938.47 mil. Dixons =51.95 per share -Market Capitalisation £1,902.39 -Value of new company£3,840.86 mil. Dixons new shareholding will be 3,661.97mil x.155 = 567.65 shares. Carphone shares in existence = 576.07m shares Total shares in new company = 1,143.72mil. Divide value of new company by number of shares =£3.35 per share My current Dixons shares 10,000 @ 51.95p =£5,195.00 My shares in new company 10,000 x .155 =1550 @£3.35 = ££5,192.00 You should in theory be no better or no worse off when the 2 companies merge.
