Short are very active today and sound worried….

Does anybody know what date each month the UK registration figures are updated?

Thanks both for the figures, pretty much as expected now that new Vantage and DBX are available, still waiting for AM Online to show the UK July figures, but positive stuff.

Overtrader, don’t waste your time on them, there are a few short traders on here who become active when they are looking to close out, I’m guessing they sold in the 1.65-1.68 area and are now looking to close out.

Broken up from an inverse head and shoulders at 159, a brake of 165 will give a target of 203. That if you like a bit of technical analyst

Not a surprise that they are using the 170 million facility to tied themselves over until money starts coming in from new Vantage and DBX, after all that’s exactly what’s it’s there for! That does mean they are not running out of money that some have suggested, but they do need to hit there year end targets.

WHAT'S THE VERDICT?

“If this is Aston’s Porsche Cayenne moment that allows it to produce ever more decent GT/sports cars, then that’s a good thing”

In a sector crying out for some difference, the DBX provides it. It looks interesting, goes really very well and hits all the targets. It does feel like an Aston Martin product, and is a really very practical and well packaged SUV (running costs aside). It can manage off-road, feels suitably sporty even on a track – if you must – and generally has the chops to make light work of the grind.

The 707 moved the game on from the standard car. Yes, it’s faster and more aggressive if pushed, but when you back off it’s every bit as comfortable and undemanding as the regular car. And not a lot less efficient. And then with the facelift Aston addressed what needed changing (the infotainment) and decided on small gains rather than revolution elsewhere.

I’ve got him filtered on here, whatever he’s saying I can almost guarantee that his information comes from somebody on pistonheads that has registered their account today!

But the main point of discussion today should be that it looks the embargo on the DBX drive reviews has been lifted today and they look pretty good.

Correct, it’s all about Q3, lots of white noise at the moment. New Vantage in production as we speak (first deliveries expected Q3 I believe ) DBX press launch in progress it’s going to be an exciting end to the year don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

Also don’t forget they have 170 million in available credit which can be drawn when needed, so nobody can accurately calculate their cash position because nobody knows if they have drawn any that facility yet.

More green box, must be quite a large short I guess? Nobody spends 2 years 7 days a week trying to trash a company for nothing. I wonder where the Stroll investor roadshow is off to next? It Didn’t take much, to get this moving up.

Chart wise it’s looking bullish, broken the 20 and 50 day moving average and consolidating in the mid 160’s.

Nobody’s is expecting a good Q2, this is being driven by positioning for Q3/4 and 2025.

Lots of green boxes (blocked posts) = somebody is worried about there short? If it’s US investors that are now pushing the price up, then last week will just be the start.

The motley fool seem to think the recent share price rise is down to an FT article which suggested Stroll “was considering” a US listing for Aston Martin. I think it’s down to Stroll courting US investors.

Stroll has sought to win over Wall Street by inviting investors to the carmaker’s Park Avenue showroom, where last year it launched Aston’s Q service, named after James Bond’s quartermaster. Visitors to the showroom are offered a “Savile Row” experience in which they can decide how to customise their vehicle and can admire the latest models, including the new Vantage sports car.

Probably not the best time for them to be short!

Agreed, it didn’t seem like he said anything that wasn’t known already, but he obviously had the right audience.
