No worries was a brucie bonus anyway :) my view fwiw is that possible some shorters were contracted NOT to sell until after ex div date ??? would seem logical and probably standard practice so maybe ( and im just speculating ) maybe some shorters could not short due to contracts signed before the divi withdrawal and legally once ex div day arrived they all piled in en masse ??? like i said pure speculation using guesswork and a touch of logic but who knows. gl
Once declared isnt there a legal obligation to pay ?? i can understand the final dividend being unlikely and withdrawn but the interim was declared and that might present legal problems best dealt with by just paying it, i mean its less than 70 mil which in the scheme of things is not a lot but its possible a shareholder could argue that they bought shares on the strength of the declared dividend and if the company had prior knowledge or REASONABLE expectation of their inability to pay this could throw up all kinds of issues. Just a thought.and yeah optimism lol ive already spent that bonus in my head :)
thank for the info, pleasent surprise to say the least, and i managed to add some @ 8.74 as well :) so research,legwork and pouring over stats and dumb luck makes me twice as much with no effort lol figures. Gla
is this correct ? �0.43 dividend ? to be paid when ? If so might also explain a little the shorters being back in the game, most "borrowers" are contracted not to sell pre div or to pay the dividend if they do i am led to believe ?? if this not corretc would appreciate being put right! thank in advance.
your a liar and a fantasist imho lmao Consider this people, prof by his own admission ( see earlier posts) sold out at 6.78 and was deramping to try and by back in before ex div date... !!! So then why all the urgency to try and get the price down pre divi? Look prof if it helps your self esteme to try and convince people on here that you are a "playa" me and your shrink have no problem with that but really " i used to make 30k a day then i got greedy" or was it "i made 20k shorting this"..".i made 30 k shorting this"!!! take ya meds and grasp reality for a minute would ya ? maybe it was a typo should it read " i lost 20k snorting this " ??? If you were that big a trader what ya doin wasting time on a forum ?? surely you must be too busy to rub shoulders with the plebs :) what a joke ...
still banging the same drumhuh ??? HOWEVER you could have sold for over �7 and collected 34p a share and still sold out for almost what your sell price of 6.78 was a couple of weeks ago is that right GENIUS? lmao lets all follow the prof hey its only money :)
After hours trading is b/s really level playing field my aris! still drop the price hoover em up and close the shorts up she goes, always been an unlevel playing field for the small investor lets be honest.
would have liked to re discover the 9.20's today but bigger fish than us are tussling over this puppy !but tomorrow is another day. I still see a good turnaround for my holding and some more trading when the opportunity knocks. Im still of the view that i will look back on the holding in my sipp as one of my best choices ever as i watch the divi roll in but only time will tell. Gla..... One thing to remember is that somewhere Woody is singing "you got a friend in me" :)
thats two forlorn hopes maybe the third attack will get us over the wall ?? after that with a bit of luck it will gather momentum as the shorters run for the hills to fight another day :) all imho and nothing more.
and as probably previously stated on numerous occasions,you take obnoxious to a whole new level, does it come naturally or did it take time to hone such a winning personality ? Though it is past the yardarm so might be the Gin!
sorry for me a trade is buying and selling which is what i meant when bought some of these small trades would have cost what 20/25 quid plus whatever trade fee however small when they sell so why would you not accept a reasonable % drop before selling ? most will probably buy back again anyway ?? that was the point i made very badly anyway.
I agree it never fails to puzzle me auto sells on � 300 trades ??? the stamp duty and tax and fees are like what almost 10% of that order and yet you can bet the sell order is tight as a duck aris lol still what do i know
well only my opinion/optimism obviously lol but once this does leg up fast when it goes !! on one end sp being defended against shorters by woody et al on the other shorters know how twichy pi's are on this one so boing boing :) but yeah i think once 9.08 reached it will get back into the 20's but lemme qualify i wouldnt put my house on it just 9 grand :)
and tax on a �300 sell order ???? jeez peeps if you want a decent return try holding for a while and accept that a 5+ % swing on this share is not just common but practically guaranteed !! I get it no one likes to lose a couple of % but on this share right now only one who gains from silly sell orders is the shorters and the exchequer !!!
If this play comes good we are looking at potential 50 to 100% sp increase medium and possibly short term in addition as soon as the dividend is reinstated a potential for a 10/12% plus dividend based on TODAYS sp !! they used to pay �1.20 �1.34 and 98p thats not chicken feed!!.If anyone is expecting those kind of potentail rewards without speed bump's well your in the wrong place,only oil explorers present those opportunities and, well they are kinda risky. bol
nah its fun buy 8.80's sell 9.30's easy as pie lol im fully expecting a serious rise anytime soon but then i have just loaded up so am a little biased :) but unless the pattern changes we will see 9.30 possibly 9.50 in next few days ?? heres hoping gla
