He's correct, RDS.B closed Friday at $50.08 on the nyse. Each of these represent 2 shares in Shell.

Good spot, currently trading equivalent to GBP 18.32

If you look at the recent RNS there are several titled "Transaction in own shares" these break down the buy backs. If you are looking at the trades I don't believe there is a way to distinguish normal buys from buy backs.

Ranger4, you can say that about any investment, either you realise a gain or use the loss to offset cgt. The point you originally tried to make is absurd - that goodman buying is somehow a sign that he thinks the company will fail. Everybody agrees that pvr has been bad for longterm holders but that doesn't mean there isn't potential for exceptional value at current prices.

Ranger4, do you really think he is intentionally planning on losing money on pvr so that he can pay less tax?! That might be the most ridiculous thing I've read on this forum. It's true you can use capital losses to reduce cgt but the amount you save is always less than the loss.

You swap out a like for like battery, just replacing a depleted one for a charged one so no need for a 10k charge. This tech is currently used in China by Nio https://youtu.be/0StTrsdoD3c

That's a texas based oil explorer. Not related to this but understand the confusion given the near identical names and ticker.

You're exactly right jh77, and if spoton were worried about the bond not being successful they would have realised that profit. I take it as a good sign they still hold 3.1% of the shares in issue.

SpotOn have already paid 500,000 pounds to participate in rights issues last April and May. Not massive money but unfair to say no money on the table and it's 500,000 more than Apec ever paid.
