Good afternoon Ian,
Thank you for referring to my rather niche comment from last summer, whereby I questioned the motives of Rowka. My views have clearly been vindicated by events over the last week and his volte-face. However, I take little joy from being right, as nothing has changed here from an investment point of view. I haven’t sold a bean and we’re now trading at a discount to the buy in prices of institutional investors.
Rowka, I apologise for my vitriolic outburst towards you on Friday PM, however my sentiments remain and you really are quite despicable. Not that you’ll care. As the last exchange of words between us, I would recommend you invest in a Nasdaq tracker as you seem to be chasing all kinds of rainbows and would be less likely to lose your shirt.
Parsley2 – your comments here read as if you failed your 1st year logic module on a PPE course. I think you’d be better suited to a BTECH National in hair design. When you’re old and lying on your deathbed, are you really going to wish you spent more time on the LSE boards ‘warning’ us all of our investment here? Wouldn’t you rather spend time with your family? Like fellow second rate critic PATT, you clearly suffer from at least one of the dark triadic personality traits. However, as I’m a reasonable person, I’m going to give you some data about EUA that you won’t find in the common domain (unless you have a Bloomberg terminal, in which case you can view it yourself):
- Last week the institutional short positions reduced by 51.30%
- The total shares on loan for short positions is just over 6 million. The company has 2.76 billions shares, so the short positions account for just 0.23% of total shares (nearly all of these are hedges by the institutions)
Combine this data with the fact that the last time we saw the buying volume of last week was the MSCI buy in.
Connect these pieces of information and draw your own conclusions, I won’t be engaging with you any further as I have better things to do with my life.
Finally, to all investors here who read the utter tripe from Rowka, Parsley2 and the MadStork on here or *************, Tom Winnifrith, TheLongerGame, Hermes and Gary the Fish on Twitter, just remember that these people likely have tiny Spreadex short positions. The MadStork even posted his minuscule spreadbet position here. Imagine spending all that time and effort on here talking EUA down for such a small amount of cash. How desperate these people must be for small scraps of cash. If they put all this effort into their careers they wouldn’t have to resort to gutter tactics for a few quid here and there. Don't give up your shares easily.
All the best
In addition to the good points raised below, fatboy1nc has a good link about how this share is manipulated on low volume days like today on ADVFN - I'd suggest giving that a read. If you're here for the end game of JV or T/O (as I am, bought in recently), then don't bother watching the minute-to-minute sp Danjo.
Would the offer not have to voted on by shareholders? There will continue to be a market whilst the vote concludes and no suspension. Let's assume there's a 7 am RNS that states the BOD is recommending a takeover offer at xx pence (insert your own dream scenario). The share price re-rates before the market opens and everyone that wants to close their position can do, but those that do will be getting slightly less than waiting for the conclusion of the takeover due to the spread. For some examples go look at IMO or UNAC (but don't look at ENT!).
For anyone else that has noticed all the 250K trades that seemed designed to manipulate the share price within a range (likely for the purpose of accumulation), there's a decent explanation on the ADVFN board by fatboy1nc. I only bought in at 4.5p last week (sorry LTHs!), but I too noticed this behaviour over the last week or so. It's a shame I didn't get into ARCM previously - this is a great board with some really informative posts and where different opinions are largely respected. Not your average LSE board.
London Stock Exchange reported two after-hours purchases (probably the same person given the time stamps) totalling 8000 shares at 309.42p - this price was around Monday's high though. The trade flag is OILQ, which represents a negotiated trade in an illiquid stock (which we know TWD is given the free float around here). If it's delayed reporting from earlier in the week, then the Google sp will just re-adjust to Friday's close, though we'd all prefer if the buy was in anticipation of a major RNS Monday AM!
MB - agreed, very excited about the long-term prospects here.
If you haven't read this already, then I can recommend the following analysis on TWD:

Same as you MB - bought in recently, already great returns. Potential for many multiples of the current sp.
SC - thanks for the info in your postings, much appreciated.
If Sneller is buying more, I'm here for the long-term. Waiting for EUA sale to complete, then going to upscale investment here.
All the best

RMR and Franny raise excellent points - who is Rowka?
This is a person who has posted, on average, 18 times per day on EUA for last 30 days….this is quite a staggering number.
Given the sheer time-consuming nature of this fact, one might conclude that they are either: unemployed, retired, a full-time at-home trader or employed by another party to specifically ensure that their posts and their information is at the top of the BB every day and at regular intervals. If it is the latter, then we must all consider whether this is for nefarious means.
Analyse the posts Rowka adds…paragraph after paragraph of technical information that most lay people will not understand. What is the purpose of this? Clearly to give the air of someone who is credible to potential new investors. So why is Rowka trying to pump the share price? We are all more gullible that we like to think and Rowka’s behaviour worries me.
Moreover, do we think that Rowka is Googling this technical information on the fly? Of course not. Rowka must keep a long document of his/her ‘research’, to be rolled out at regular intervals during the day. We should all ask ourselves - what is the point of all these posts? Some people here will question why I am asking this – the reason is the same as every genuine person here, I have a great deal to lose/gain, though hopefully the latter, in EUA.
As a new member to LSE, but long-term observer, I of course welcome any scepticism of why you think I might now be commenting. The reason is I am all in on EUA, but not because I am influenced by posters like Rowka.
My open challenge to Rowka is simply this – prove to us here on the EUA board that you own EUA shares and tell us why you constantly pump this share. I appreciate you are “visiting” the site as I post this, so I can wait for a reasoned response.
