Oil down over 10% and the £ is down around 1%. Not really making up for it is it? keep it real.
mornington I believe this is an old wives tale. If your shares are in a segregated account then the broker cannot touch them and if they are non seg then you cannot control them. And putting a limit order in would not mean they cannot lend them out. They would just call them back once sold. The UK do not have the same settlement rules as say the USA.
Depends on your broker and which MM's they have a relationship with or how good they are. Some only speak to 1 or 2 or just leave limits with their mates (lunch a lot).
Unfort I think not. I did expect the rise to last longer than it did but the shorts have the upper hand again in that there will be no updates until mid march so still able to act on PI's fears.
I personally think that this has been manipulated down by the Algos for the last month or so.
JohnPWH are you being serious? 16:29/30 is the last trade during normal market hours. the trade at 16:35 is the auction uncrossing.
If there is an issue then they need to investigate the leak. And the BOD should be investigated as to why it has taken so long. I am hoping that it is just a bear attack knowing that they are not going to announce anything until CMD in March.
Isnt the bond a convertible around 42p. I think the big issue is that they have not confirmed that it is a long term field. Not known for another 6 months or so.
They can say what they want and when they want to. It is no longer price sensitive.
So if I read this correctly for approx. 35k shares they pay for 14k. To stop being accused of helping to let the price drop maybe the price should be an average of the last months closing price. Its not like they would be underwater. They are only paying for 40%.
Why does that look good? Means more retail clients using market makers as opposed to professionals working orders on SETS.
Surely its not just restaurant numbers but also user numbers. Can have 10,000 restaurants but if only 500 people on the app it wont last long. That's where the costs will come it with marketing.
This was being ramped a lot before when it dropped to 2p. Those that bought there were looking for a quick bounce. They were then down approx 50%. They are now in profit and most probably sold to get their money back. I think this has more in it. Now needs a few big chains to sign up.
There us no reason for the BOD not to be updating shareholders. Now half way through the 6 months before the company is completely de listed.
Daltry before you start throwing FFS's around re read what YOU said
Going short is hedging - as is going long !
Maybe a mis understanding but is a sector I have spent most of my working life in. For speculators and hedgers.
Daltry going short is not hedging. It is only really hedging if against another position linked product. Long something short something connected. If they have an agreement already then they would be naked short. the only real way for them to hedge would be to buy puts. That way if the price drops below their level (less premium paid) then they can make money on the option.
They would not be hedging they would be going short as already a deal in place with BP. So all down to that agreement. Probably done on an average or pre fixed price but would be good to know.
Yes price of oil up last 2 days yet the price here drops. Not sure day to day price of oil affects HUR as no idea what the pricing structure is with BP. There are a few negative people around at the moment and hopefully they are wrong. As for saying it always does this costs people a lot of money.
If a share drops 5% then bounces 5% it is still down !!!!
Not exactly a bargain if your target is 35p Hmmmm
