More again tomorrow?

Maybe delisting is the way to go

allign who?

what other tactic HH?

just saying, this is better than fiction.

on one hand, a cracking RNS, on the other the wires saying "A second American short-seller has taken aim at Burford Capital, claiming it is "inappropriately financed" and that public scrutiny was "long overdue". Gotham City Research waded into the controversy surrounding the litigation financing company yesterday, issuing a statement saying Burford has enjoyed an "absurdly high valuation" and defending the contentious methods of Muddy Waters and other activist short-sellers, saying they "should be applauded for their work". - The Times"

The number of folk that come here, stay for a year or less, then depart. Regular, as schoolwork. Just saying.

Plus - as colonel pointed out, Santander took a chunk recently.

Roth1 - not a lot of shares about (for obvious reasons). Any II wouldn’t get far before the SP is 26p. They’d help from special bots (look at trades recently...) or a deal with an exiting II, the latter of which would not make sense.

Under £500m market cap is stoooopid, though not impossible.

“Something deeper” - maybe you should see the doctor. Total guff. Look at the trades. The sells are automatic, relentless, and typically under 300 shares per package. This is results and brexit. Once the sept info comes out (which will we all know include some unpleasant known knowns) then a fresh view will get formed.

What are you on about COdey??? It went from about 470-880 at placing.

ask warren about tesco

... in theory, the company could use the proceeds from the loan book and buy all its shares back (bar 1).

... MTRO would be almost doubling 'its money'.
better business there than traditional banking...

i don't agree. if the company issued (sold) shares at £5 and can buy them back at £3 then that is good business. Also, less shares available for shorters to buy back. simple.

£510m. wow. Back to shorted placing price ... with all new shares factored in!

at 300 as at 500. never cared much for 400.

i bought
