The latest Investing Matters Podcast with Jean Roche, Co-Manager of Schroder UK Mid Cap Investment Trust has just been released. Listen here.
Are you suggesting manipulation spitfire?
Surely not in the straight laced, well governed, 100%balanced and fair trading system we find ourselves using.
The media and the short sellers would have nothing but a fair trading mechanism.
Straight as a dye is the LSE.
I'll hear nothing less.
Lol
This thing pivots around 666 ALOT.
The names Beazley and Belzebub are not a million miles away from each other.
What is going on here lol!!
Jokes.
Nice little broker forecast upgrade to 1000p there.
:)
Expecting a gradual increase over the next couple of months.
Good post Newbyoldy.
With respect, people quoting MM directly controlling the SP and other people expecting this to be this price and that price by a certain time with no actual reasoning for it.
Do we not think the price is purely demand driven?
If good news comes then forget 10p or 12p.
I would expect at least 50p plus.
Can you explain 'perhaps 1.3 to 1.4 Mill to shift'
Are they already amongst the free float or not?
I thought they were entering the market last week?
The shares that are 'not shifted' where are they if they're not part of the total floated shares?
Also; if not yet sold onto the market, surely we can expect a further downward movement in SP as the supply of shares tick up?
I'm not being pedantic I'm curious as to where this information is coming other than the initial RNS.
The only thing that will shift the SP north significantly and promptly is a takeover, otherwise there's a fair chunk of time before ASOSs starts to bloom again (which I don't mind waiting for).
I'm not sure what the answer is to revamping the investment case for the UK stock exchange however, reducing dividend tax and capital gains taxes may be a start...this may go someway to bump starting the property sector too.
My thoughts too.
Mike Ashley will not offer.I don't think he has the funds for an offer last time I looked into that one.
He's small fry compared to Shein.
The only thing I can see stopping Shein entering either exchange is their negative environmental aspects and reported poor working conditions.All issues asos and Boo have been scorn for previously.Shein however, are again in a different league, as their level of environmental effects and poor working conditions will be much greater given their huge scale and cheap prices for their poor quality garments.
Things are heating up here.
Inflation will be in the 2% range soon with interest rates being cut, this big old beast will come good once again.
Although I think MA will not make any offers, guess who wins and BIG if a decent offer does come in?
Yep MA.
He's not soft ill give him that.
Exactly sj74.
It is unlikely however; it depends how much Shein ( let's face it they would be the obvious candidates) wants a part of the USA/UK markets.
We know they want in.
If the US and UK continue to make things difficult for Shein to float then for me, this will increase the likelihood of some sort of offer.
Aside from this, there is also topshop.We know they're desperate to get their hands on.
It's a shame there's an Asteroid on the way :(
