Thanks for that ..

Rock- Why would they trade through those exchanges?

Thanks

Rock . I hope that because we have been up and down through the 50’s and 60’s twice in a few months , that the ‘conviction' holders are all thats left until we hit higher numbers.

Well thats my theory LOL

I did think that we had been up and down for the last few months, and there will be plenty of holderss thinking they will be safe trading at around 70 to 75, but it could be that the next time we hit those numbers we move up again and never revisit.

I tend to think that when IG index says 76 % of retail clients lose money, that will be the same on here.

80% lose trading and 20% gain..me i am holing LOL

Gl to the minnows!!

If it is Sparta or another activist, i expect the SP to go up and down like a yoyo, then one day we will get a few days of rises that don't come back down.

this guys like to buy at the lowest possible price

PS I was a golden boy on the fast track at the time, but of course there were many other Golden boys and girls waiting for the vacancy..

LOL

Well we disagree, IMO what the CEO says goes, and like you i have worked in corporate life, all the minions do is get the words right to get past the barriers.

But the CEO says they way it is, i have been sacked at least once for disagreeing with a CEO, he didn’t like it at all.

Got 6 months pay for leaving the next day

True

TBF to Kando thats is how it works, he owns the 25% and operationally thats how it works.

I disagree about the rationale for the miss, brokers and posters on here said they would never hit guidance, so IMO its not about the loans facility.

I think it was to enable him to move JG aside form key posts in the business, as I have said before on here, to sideline a co-founder and key partner is very difficult and the 3 misses culminating in the last one, allowed that move to happen.

I think we will see better to come, but also fear that it wont, but in the end I trust TGL...

GL to all us minnows

I am just remarking on the vitriol by some regular posters , Imo wanting people to either buy or sell.

These actions leading to holders selling out / buying more usually losing a few percentage points as they try to buy and sell. as ithe price action is very disturbing, ultimately leading to others accumulating shares.

I never forget one of the active type investors being interviewed on Bloomberg, they were very positive about a company for the medium term, yet they continually , traded , shorted and went long. Using financial instruments to make things more complicated and amplify the effects.

When asked why, they reply was

1. We make money as we go along and
2. we accumulate more shares on the way as well.

So for me its someone making money and accumulating shares.

Us lowly PI’s are best holding if we think its going to make us money medium term

Just my take on it.

Yesterday the SP hit a low of 50.16 and the vitriol on this board was quite astonishing, many a holder reading this board would have been tempted to sell during the onslaught. ( some bought of course.)

This afternoon the SP hit 60.20, thats about a 20% rise from bottom yesterday to top today, and there was silence on the board. Apart from me and a few others wittering away.

I think its the opposite of a pump and dump

All Imo of course

I also think that access to these very high net worth companies and individuals is worth a lot, so its more than just the numbers.

But i don't know how many Spa’s are very high end.

Weekend homework for me..lol

I would have no idea what ESPA would be worth as a stand alone, but it certainly is at the high end, i knew about the skin care products but not about the range of spas..

Always a school day at THG

Very interesting

BTW if he spoke out in defence of MM or the company and wasnt seen to be objective, it would be massive breach of Corporate Governance , look what happened this morning at Scottish Mortgage.

He has bought 1.5 million pounds worth of shares here after less than a year in post...at BB he bought 250 thousand pounds worth after 15 months.

He should / must not be involved in the day to day running of the company, we also know that he handled the 1.70 bid with major shareholders as is his duty not MM’s.

Big Fan here and we are lucky to have him IMO

A non - Executive chairman /person is responsible for managing the board, they comment and input into strategy , run board meetings and ensuring communication with other board members.

TGL his last public utterance as far as I can see was at the AGM when Flim Flam , no doubt we will hear from him again at the next AGM

I think posters are misguided when they say non-existent.

All Imo of course

Here is a summary of their duties, pinched from a consultancy that works in this area,

The core functions of the chairman, among other, include:
• setting the ethical tone for the board and the company
• providing overall leadership to the board
• formulating (with the CEO and company secretary) the yearly work plan for the board against agreed objectives, and playing an active part in setting the agenda for board meetings
• presiding over board meetings and ensuring that time in meetings is used productively
• managing conflicts of interest
• acting as the link between the board and management and particularly between the board and the CEO
• ensuring that complete, timely, relevant, accurate, honest and accessible information is placed before the board to enable directors to reach an informed decision
• monitoring how the board works together and how individual directors perform and interact at meetings
• ensuring that good relations are maintained with the company’s major shareholders and its strategic stakeholders, and presiding over shareholders’ meetings
• upholding rigorous standards of preparation for meetings, and
• ensuring that decisions by the board are executed.
Further responsibilities of the chairperson would be to identify and participate in selecting board members (via a nomination committee), and overseeing a formal succession plan for the board, CEO and certain senior management appointments such as the chief financial officer.

Crow- Insults?

Quindell was a scam as i said, the technology was non -existent and IMO he was lucky to escape prosecution , I put that down to the incompetence within the SFA.

Are you saying MM and THG are crooked? I note are you using badly run as your alternative.

You may think i am stupid but my Mum doesn’t...

Mr Terry,

Mr Terry told the market that he had been buying shares in Quindell when he was actually selling them. Mr Terry’s stewardship of Quindell prompted an investigation from the Serious Fraud Office into the company’s accounting and business practices.

Crow i know all about Quindell and the boss MR Terry. it was a scam from start to finish with some daft Ozzies left holding the parcel when the music stopped, if you think THG is like Quindell IMO you area few brain cells short...

Could be another Quindell with the TGL as the puppet..what do you think C man

PS Im boogying away to the Kaiser Chiefs at high volume in my study..

If things continue this vein, I Predict a Riot!!

GL all of us
