Wiser investors may have sold out on Thurs., that's if they knew about Carlyle's interest in Sydney's listed Link Group £1.5bn bid. This also being their 2nd attempt to try and buy it. Maybe it bears more fruit than Metro Bank, after all 'Banks are risky business' & I doubt Carlyle would be forking out for TWO companies pre year end.

Daily Mail gave it a good mention today, however also hinted that the C E O had considered taking it private. Shucks !

So Chief Executive Daniel Frumkin has been trying to turn the bank around since he took the role in 2020.
But it is understood that he had been interested in taking Metro Bank private since he became boss.

Not so sure whether to sell 1/2 my holding now should they reach £1 -60 having acquired @ £1 -06. Or maybe just hang on in there.

May be advisable to invest in Paraguay. Proven reserves and things happening for President Energy right now. Lucky if buying into PPC below 2.5p as their news posted today will make shareholders happy in time for Christmas.

Maybe he selected a nice property abroad or fancies living it up in Stuttgart ! Who knows !

With expected further good news tomorrow, I would not be surprised to see 20p within 3 months.
28-Oct-21 Chariot Ltd (CHAR) Peel Hunt LLP Buy 15.00 15.00 Reiteration

Excitement re. their drilling in Guyana (from memory 60 days to drill the well) that started about beginning Sept. So maybe it's taking a bit longer to drill & some investors sold out on the rise & have moved to what they believe is a more prosperous investment - maybe. Have faith in this company and keep holding this stock.

Take out at around 46p to be offered is my guess, if it happens.

22-Oct-21 NewRiver (NRR) Liberum Capital Buy - 130.00 Reiteration

Reckon I shall be selling my lovely 328i. As it's W reg. it's the right time to celebrate with a much newer car. Need to see £1 -80 plus - for it to happen though !

Need some profit to set aside the previous year's loss. But nice to read the update but I wish they would drop the word 'challenging' as it can put people off topping up on this oil explorer. There are more lucrative one's out there such as Eco Atlantic who are drilling in Guyana.

As singer Yazz would forecast. So the real recent buying opportunity appears to have been at 49p. I expect 80% + from even the current price. Bring it on Canada.

In August 2021, the Indian Parliament introduced the Taxation Laws (Amendment) Bill 2021, which has certain amendments to the retrospective taxation measures that were introduced by the Finance Act 2012.

Cairn is considering entering into statutory undertakings with the Government of India in respect of new legislation, which would enable the refund of retrospective taxes collected from Cairn in India by way of asset seizures since 2014. The final form of these statutory undertakings has yet to be published by the Government of India, but it is anticipated that the principal condition that they prescribe will be the withdrawal of Cairn’s rights under the international arbitration award.

The expected near-term resolution of the India tax dispute would result in a refund to Cairn by the Government of India of INR 79bn (approximately US$1.06bn). In accepting the terms of the new legislation in India, Cairn would be required to withdraw its international arbitration award claim, interest and costs and to end all legal enforcement actions in order to be eligible for the refund.

Just researched this ! Might just accept my losses & move on.

Paid a dividend recently and their news out today is very positive. Especially like this piece. ................
It is the first time for a while that we can look forward with such confidence."

To accompany the Capital Markets Event NewRiver is providing the below trading update.

Operational progress



Rent collection figures have further improved since our Q1 update in July. Occupiers continue to make payments due under COVID deferral agreements, increasing our rent collection rate in respect of FY21, and our most recent quarter rent collection rate now exceeds 90%. This represents a material improvement compared with the same point last year.

Pullback yes, sure to happen, but I did not expect such a drop or to read that the Cineworld Group have 3 members that have lost out on a court case over rental to the price of £2.9m, stating the cost of rental at Piccadilly Circus, in spite of covid - 19, should not be borne by the landlord. Since January the Trocadero Centre had been chasing up for the rent owed from March 2020 & Picturehouse Cinema, Cineworld & Gallery Cinemas owe the outstanding climbing arrears in rent.'NOT GOOD & I bought at the wrong time. May top up if they drop to the 60's to average out. Come on Bond !

Although they leaped up on the news of closing the fraud case, they still have to pay up. And also ..................

Very nice, but selling 1/2 your investment would prevent you buying back in at £2 + perhaps. That's unless you know of a 'dead cert.' to give you a better return. 'Carclo' or 'Bakkavor' maybe !

An update needed by this site - maybe. Believe they were concerned at the time with their debt plus the burn through cash exceeding all the time planes were staying on the runway. It is still a tad risky considering the amount of shares in issue.
