We would love to hear your thoughts about our site and services, please take our survey here.
There seems to be neither rhyme nor reason for the fall other than that URI its biggest competitor is down 8.32% as I write. This has fallen from £60 after its good results and dividend hike last month to £46 today. Typical AHT I'm afraid. I've been invested here for 21 years!
ok Quickdip. No need for sarcasm. Not everyone looks at this board 24/7.
I've just bought in here having made a bit on Go-Ahead.

Bus strike ended
We are pleased to confirm that the bus strike has been called off following a positive driver ballot outcome. We are very sorry to our customers and the communities we serve for the disruption and uncertainty over the last week.
Seems to me that the big share holders sell out one the shares have gone ex dividend.
MNG which investors tend to buy for the dividend went ex. div.last week to the tune of 13.4p and 3 days later had dropped by 30p. This is then the buying opportunity.
The building materials group CRH soared over 8% yesterday when it proposed moving to a U.S.listing as most of it's Business is there. Maybe AHTs rise today is on the back of that.
The board plans to recommend transitioning to a US primary listing in 2023.
"We have now come to the conclusion that a US primary listing would bring increased commercial, operational and acquisition opportunities for CRH, further accelerating our successful integrated

Thank you for your useful post of yesterday which I have just noticed. The capital restructuring seems much more complicated than last time. If the share price goes up tenfold they will not be as attractive to trade. Also if buying now it's best to buy a number which is devisible by 10.

Darktrace on the back foot as trading update approaches

Darktrace PLC
Darktrace PLC (LSE:DARK) is facing intense scrutiny as the AI group prepares to release its latest trading update.
The group has found itself at the centre of a short-selling campaign by US hedge fund Quintessential Capital Markets (QCM), after the fund released a damning report accusing Darktrace of overstating sales, margins, and growth rates.
Evidence was laid out in a 70-page document titled Autonomy 2.0? The Dark side of Darktrace.
Darktrace has already lowered its revenue expectations for the full year to between 29.5% and 31% due to a larger impact on new customer growth, but has raised its expectations for adjusted EBITDA margin to 16.0 and 18.5% (previously 15 to 18%).
Comments from Sam Roberts, partner at Cooke, Young & Keidan, today commented on the allegations put forward by QCM.
"If we look to the recent past, there is ample evidence that scandals such as the one Darktrace finds itself mired in can, and often do, result in actual legal claims. Depending on what happens next, there is a real possibility that investors and shareholders could make claims against Darktrace to try to secure some form of financial recompense,” said Roberts.
Predictive text changed Qatar into quarter. More disappointed!
I bought these 8 years ago at 307 as it was said Quarter were interested in buying Sainsburys. They went down. Then they went up and I found myself in profit when they were hoping to buy Asda only to be disappointed again when they weren't allowed to. Just one big disappointment.
Just found the reason for share rise today.

AHT's competitor, URI was up 4.39% after hours. Can't see why. I don't think they build tanks!
Strange that today NEX is the biggest faller in the Ftse 350 while First group is the biggest riser.
