Evolve,

How much are you down on your short at the moment? Around £4500 isn't it? Will you be closing it before the finish on Friday or are you praying for bad news and holding until the end?

Nearly there boys and girls not long to wait now. The nice steady rise this week is encouraging I'm glad I haven't got a short in this one the closer we get to Friday! Hopefully as more of them close their positions that'll accelerate the rise before the offer or offers come in. Remember there isn't just one potential owner looking at this. Holding firm here.

I'm not valuing Superdry I'm just laughing at the valuation of £15m. You do you I'm just waiting for the RNS. Haven't got the time or the inclination to get into lengthy debates on a message board. I've got my shares and I'm holding.

Good luck all holders not long to go now.

15 mil? Can you let us all know what you're smoking this morning cos that's some good sh*t. 😂😂🤦‍♂️

Stop overthinking things.

Deano you said....

" I see no upside for JD making an offer to take it private UNLESS he and his backers have deeeppp pockets and are playing the long game."

He's in talks with Davidson Kempner to back his takeover (Source Sky News)).

Davidson Kempner Is the worlds 8th largest hedge fund with assets of over $36bn so would fit the description of having "deeeppp pockets".

Evolve is short at 36p @ £1500pp. Imagine if the RNS drops at 7am on Monday morning and we open at 79p!!! £64,000 down!!!

Evolve went short at 36p and still hasn't made any money. He wants to close his short today because he knows theres a big chance of an RNS first thing Monday morning announcing the take over.

I'm pretty confident we'll see an RNS on Monday morning before trading starts so anyone that wants in I'd suggest now is your last call. 35.25 could be the lowest we see today as others board the train this afternoon . I wouldn't want to be out of this when we close today.

Just my opinion.

That isn't how business works one man can't just decide to take a company into administration like that lol. If the company wasn't viable anymore and it did enter administration the administrators are impartial and have to get the most money for the assets/company so he'd go up against others.

Bonzob

The SP isn't dropping its 15% up since Monday and over 200% up since it was announced the founder was looking to take it private. Of course we have daily fluctuations but remember there's lots of new day traders here now and they'll buy and sell all the time.

Is this a gamble? Yes. Could it reap big rewards. Oh yes.

Your post the other day said you shorted this at 36 and we haven't gone below that yet. Make your mind up.

NVIDEA absolutely smashed its earnings and the whole of the NYSE is up on the back of it.

Great week so far currently up 15% since Monday afternoon. Very encouraging that since the story broke on Monday night that Dunkerton was in talks with various companies about a takeover none have commented to deny it. Speaks volumes that they've all been approached by Sky News and they've all declined to comment. If you wasn't working on an offer you'd let people know.

Ha ha that's funny mate. It's a sign!!!

You guys getting the RNS's from across the pond? I've had 5 so far all insiders selling shares. Doesnt exactly fill me with confidence.

Good to see you in here Neil777,

I owe you huge thanks a drink for your Helium 1 tip that worked out great for me.

Be nice in here though please we don't need you de-ramping my nice big earner lol 👍👍👍

Lol I know how you feel mate sometimes I feel like I'm giving a stock the kiss of death!!!

Good to hear that your other sectors are keeping you afloat hopefully all the travel stocks turn around soon. I honestly think CCL should start climbing again soon.

Welcome back Bot,

Yeah I'm still well and truly on the sidelines here mate it's very frustrating at the moment. The company is breaking records left right and centre but the SP is still falling. It's gotta turn soon for you all.

If you're feeling adventurous you might want to have a punt on Superdry. Takeover talks currently taking place and I'm thinking the offer (if it arrives of course) should be north of £1 a share. Currently 38p as I type. Might be worth taking a look.

I went in the shop in Liverpool One last week and it was full of shoppers. The shop looked great and was FULL of new stock. Definitely didn't look like a retailer in distress.
