there would have to be a massive disconnect between the company's listing in Germany & UK for any kind of major movements to occur on Monday. If it moves down then I for sure will be building up a bigger stake as the fundamentals support the co. well, rather than Mr Market causing the negative sentiment shown amongst those who are underwater like myself and to those heavily underwater who only see short-term pain.
As much s I would love a spike down, I don't think we will get that. Still another 500-1000 shares won't hurt for the long term.

UK seems to have dodged many scenarios painted by IMF, IFS or any economic bigwigs etc. My view is that since most, if not all the banks have not reported customer distress means to me people have been savvy since lockdown or even before that to manage their way through the last two years. On that basis, anduntil I see reports of such, then I expect UK to dodge another doom and gloom scenario being painted. If true then people will book hols even more.

but judging by German this German company trading in Germany, I don't think we will get one. Oh well. will buy anyway for the LT as its sitting in bargain territory as it is.

The trading today in Germany could give an indication of the direction on the 24th.

The volatility is something I feed on even though I took a decent holding and took the rights. Hindsight, foresight, call it what you like. I'm long term but most holders think only short term and see short term when making rash decisions.
I may double my holding if Mr market plays this on the 24th and onwards in several stages and weeds out the unnerved as the R.I was never a desperate attempt to keep the light on and the holidays bookings, news and a strong balance sheet are the fundamentals underpinning the company against Market players who want the volatility.
Its called the market and is normal. Short term V Long term. Which are you???

Was invested in KIBO many years ago but gave up, but liked Mast as an opp. SP hammered from 15p to bargain hunt of 1.37p for 25k just picked up. Spec punt and thats all based on recent RNS's and progress and financials. Need to dig deeper on progress before adding more.

Im sure there will be a rise before the ceremonial drop. Was expecting rise then drop today but got the opposite. if it rises tomorrow, then expect a drop later, so might just top slice after grabbing 500 shares today on any strength up to 24th then I will buy more if it drops. Might do the opposite for all I know..here's hoping anyway.

Less, debt, Bookings boom, so once II's have played the technicals ..this will eventually right size.

Doesn't make sense. Very good take up at over 90%. £7 should be the base min for this stock if it half the sp and double the shares. Technicals at play, II games, order book , who knows. Company sounding out promising holiday news, should not have this current SP effect. Finally got my extra 1000 shares.
Expecting a leg up on take up news then leg down for whatever reason Mr Market wants to lower them by.
Tempted for another 500 if this hit new lows and another 500 if it hits R.I price. You just don't know.

What nonsense it is to compare the "keep the lights on" R.I of Aston Martin against a loan repayment R.I of a Holiday company on the right track. Some BB morons really are one brick short of a full load.

This I am hoping will sink when those II's rebalance as I'll be looking to add a 1000 more shares if the price is right. Too early for any meaningful gains, so fingers crossed.

just face it...company will make more from placings then it ever will from mining.

The rights issue is for 1.8bn, but somehow with the discounted price, I wonder if Institutional demand might cause additional shares to be issued due to the super mega discount on offer. It wouldn't surprise me if they raised 2bn . If so, I see a short-term spike and then volatility as the market grapples with the huge offload.

really??

"It expects over 500,000 customers on holiday with Tui over Easter, with a load factor in the range of 95%, which it said was broadly in line pre-pandemic levels."

What would have been the share price without all this covid and war nonsense? Circa £90 per share, so todays £6.50 is just the beginning of a steady rise back to a more realistic £40-50 per share factoring extra shares. Im in for the medium to long hold. Summer is coming and barring strikes, nuclear war, covid II, we should settle at around £14-18 by end of year.

lol... I think £5.10 is the proper price for the take up. With a strong pound we should be able to get cheaper.

you forget it was dark times then and it was a R.I rescue if anything else during pandemic, war. Tui is not doing a rescue R.I, so the comparison is fruitless

yep took my final 250 shares an hour ago as its near the bottom of the games played around this R.I. Happy with holding now. Everyone should breath better from tomorrow if this plays out the way I think it may.

Big institutions, fund managers who will have the biggest holdings are the smart ones who qualified for the rights offer, so selling their market holdings high and buying them low to fund TUI coffers is a clever market strategy. Holding too many because of the 8-3 rights makes it prudent to sell their holding. Suspected this but never had any idea it would play out like this.

people simply cannot handle RED on their portfolios. I was one of those years ago but now I see Red on a FTSE250 stock as a golden opportunity when nothing makes sense is the best time to add. The co. is not on its knees, hasn't issued rights due to its dire situation. It's the complete opposite, so I just got my extra 250 shares and need another 250 if it goes lower. Then a well-deserved breather and medium hold for the rebound. Thats my strategy, it may be wrong or it may be right. Selling is not an option for me.
