Think it will need to hold somewhere short of that until the bidders are formally announced! - Loving this!! Burn those shorts City Group etc!! Burn and then buy is probably what there're doing!

Ok there a rules in place for bidding and acqusitions and your scenario sounds illegal! Also its a design company - how can the design of tech be obsolete!!

I'd love to see some muscle come in here a good few billion Yuan perhaps to scare the pants off Apple who it's becoming clear are seriously in breach of IMG patens and IP - Of course they don't care because they are sickening bullies!

I just mean it's taking a long time to push through this technical level - it's grinding up - I'm personally hoping for 100m combined for MIPS and Ensigma, this would still be a loss but I think the city and fund managers might then think they had a real chance of selling their IP for PowerVR into AR and AI customers - MIPS should fetch a good price Mobileye heavily onboard and autonomous cars, drones IOT etc are going to be massive tech - it's a shame they don't keep these divisions.

120 seems sticky as hell - hoping it breaks soon! Next week and week after might see the clever money in before the results and a possible announcement. GLA.

'aren't the costs down to the losing shareholders' Tsch tsch Grump S. Weren't you as a young man considering a legal career? :0))

Google, Amazon Samsung.....

I was reading over the weekend that there are many multi-billion Chinese companies/deals ready and waiting to gobble up such as IMG for AI and AR capabilities in fact it's a government directive! Apparently IMG have enough in the way of 'potential' new business coming through to cover the total Apple loss! GLA

108 just before the results 120 after. Apple may have a surprise in store in the meantime!

Am surprised it's got this far considering the reaction to Staley and the results - thought the Goldman Sachs 180 short (sorry recommendation!) would have pushed this below 2 quid for a week or so! Although OIl rising and the FTSE at record high so possible support here now.

'Getting rid of Barclays chief executive Jes Staley would be bad for Barclays and bad for UK banking. That's the view of some current and former shareholders who tell me that not only would Barclays suffer if the US boss was pushed out during his so-far successful turnaround of the 360-year-old bank but also, weakening the UK's last major investment bank would be bad for the entire UK financial landscape.' I tend to agree with this - However the magic dust is wearing off - expected better from this quarter!!

Actually I agree - They missed the 21% profit from the bonds rally - just like Goldman Sachs did! Its not a good sign at all!

I think if Stayley survives (he might not) then its worth another 10-15p here - fingers crossed! Well done Jack Bowers - called it right!

Making my uninvestment in RBS feel even more painful!

Makes me hanker for the good old days of rife insider trading - the spike up or down the day before always told you whether the results were good or bad!! PI's were even more screwed back then!

Come on BARC for once in your miserable life don't retract tomorrow or go up initially and then drop 8% on some news they tried to hide in the small print - I'm sick of that!!

Look at em go! - I've dipped in and out and was looking at them when they dipped to 219!! Arrrggg! All that debt but now better potential to keep assets and sort it out.

Agreed it does LOOK bleak, however I believe there are two pieces of good new coming 1 - IMG will agree a deal with Apple along the lines of 15cents per device sold rather than 30 as it was 2. and that they will post great results as I believe their endeavours in the China are bearing fruit. - They always knew Apple were going to do this - so they were prepared and have other gates which will now open. Buying isn't for the faint -hearted but I think 2-3 months will see a significant rise
