I was thinking it may be down to director buy too but this is quite a run so not so sure. Hope it continues but I have to agree with twt that a pull back is probably pending ???? In the 5.90s only last week so this is a very positive run ?????? And it looks like the yanks are responsible imo !

Bogart “ We look forward with excitement “
I’m with you there Chris !!!!!!

Exactly gtx so let hope Molot sticks around for a long time yet as I believe he’s probably the only guy that will make us stick to prudence when it comes to cherry picking our “ investments”

TOO many times twt but all the positives you mention we’ve been expecting!!! It would just be nice to think a few out there are beginning to see it too,,,, I have and continue to believe once momentum kicks in we’ll start to be priced as we should ? Or even get a bit ahead of ourselves al la three four years ago. Patience people, patience,
When I look back at my sells and purchases over the years it bloody stupid .. I’ve bought and sold circa £18-£19 all the way down to a tenner and bought not so very long ago under a fiver I think ( I must look it up sometime) and actually I think my first purchase was around where we are today ??? I’ve always believed I’ll see a massive sp here but of cours when it was 20 quid it only needed to bag x 5 lol

Closing in on ten dollars in the states and just shy of 8% rise. Hope it’s knew investors rather than the directors 2 millions worth ,, could we possibly be gaining the respect we deserve?????

4 to 10 $billion . somewhere in the middle I'd be !very happy with !!!!

Well that’s a start but a few more rns to come as they promised to purchase $2 millions worth from their bonuses !!!

Hoping they will mention how our 1st quarter has done later but I’m guessing pretty average as I couldn’t see any mention in the results report ???
Hope they give us the usual polished performance all the same !

On “ their” cut

I’ve been here a few years now so will be very glad to put Petersen in the past and move on !!! Finally it does seem like it will be settled soon and the kind of comments coming from Sebastian Maril recently suggest the same I think ?
I’ve never worried about our short term price fluctuations but I am getting increasingly tetchy as I think we are looking so cheap that we are ripe for a takeout and believe me it won’t be at anything like a fair price !!! It also keeps coming back to me that when Chris Bogart said “ that would be for shareholders to decide “ I somehow think he wasn’t thinking about us small holders , now that’s not a put down as I’m very pro Bogart and Molot , I just think life for them would be so much easier if Burford went private. And I might add far easier for them to capitalise on the “ cut”

Well if you did your research you surely would have realised this share it not for the impatient, I’m many more ways than one !!!!!!
Great board here the last couple of days with some very thought provoking posts ... trouble is it forces me into yet more studying this company !!! Hey ho who said getting richer should be easy !

Agree GG
that was why I posted part of the RNS earlier but ultimately there IS more pennies in the pot to reinvest !!!

Not all great reading but very happy with this bit !!!!!

o Excluding income from YPF-related assets, which accounted for over half of 2019's total, 2020 total income rose by $170-$180 million, or by 95-101%, on a consolidated basis and by $175-$185 million, or by 104-109%, on a Burford-only basis.

I'm very happy with todays RNS
but some will be concentrating the whole content of the announcement not least what's to follow

Thus, we expect to report the following results for 2020:



· Total income: $345-355 million on a consolidated basis (2019: $366 million), $340-350 million Burford-only (2019: $357 million)

o Excluding income from YPF-related assets, which accounted for over half of 2019's total, 2020 total income rose by $170-$180 million, or by 95-101%, on a consolidated basis and by $175-$185 million, or by 104-109%, on a Burford-only basis.

· Operating profit (consolidated and unadjusted Burford-only): $240-250 million (2019: $265 million)

o Operating profit was affected by modestly higher general operating expenses consistent with Burford's ongoing growth strategy, current expenses related to managing assets in funds where the related performance fees will occur in the future and expenses related to Burford's New York Stock Exchange listing and other equity-related matters

· Profit after tax (consolidated and unadjusted Burford-only): $160-170 million (2019: $212 million)

o Profit after tax was impacted by a large book tax charge, as discussed in our interim report that does not reflect the much lower level of cash taxes actually paid

Many thanks Jane

Well if the year end is disappointing and the sp drops I’ll be buying that’s for sure.
I was pretty chuffed to add a few pennies worth the other day at £610.5 ,,,
I’m long here as most will know so what’s not to like about more buying opportunities!!!!! I firmly believe in a few years time our recent end of year profits will look like a drop in the ocean ,,, but as always dyor

Nice sat22.06 yesterday TWT .
It's important to have at least an inkling as to the shananigins that go on but they matter not if you are truly long !!!!

Thanks TWT
Have to say I should have posted it myself after reading it ,, there is nothing in it that says I should be looking for other long term investments , I'm not totally stupid so have a few pennies elsewhere but miniscule in comparison ,,, If this doesn't get to where I think it for me it certainly will for my two daughter ! I don't doubt that!
I guess the only thing that mike me review here is the current SP means the other idiots out there that don't see it ????? LOL

That's my take on things too TWT ,
As for momentum ? I'm convinced we are not on most USA investors radar atm but when we are we should head north pdq !!!
and so we should we are extremely cheap right now so I've been adding recently
