Ok - Psquared reduced again by 0.06% on Tue to 0.69% matching what it did Monday.

AQR has stayed put

Still doesn’t totally explain massiVe closing day trades Mon / Tue. Maybe we can expect a Rns on this tomorrow maybe?

Maybe Freeh is checking it first for inaccuracies before it can be released....

Jadam : Im totally with you on this. Partcularly your last point. It is plain as day for me.
You don’t short for such an extended period of time and in such a relentless manner if there isn’t some essence of doubt with this company and it’s fundamentals.

This is totally unprcedented for a FTSE 100 company when nothing officially has been reported as to the state of this company to justify the stock behaviour

Correction: info does not come out quick enough on public domains

Agreed - those massive buy trades on Monday and Tue have not been officially declared anywhere yet via Rns and we only saw a modest decrease of PSquared short position on Monday which was not big enough to reconcile against.

Info does come out quick enough on public domains

Does anyone know, what sp NMC floated when in joined LSE? Is it something like £5?
We might be close to that by month end on no news.

It seems like every week we are hitting new lows on this sp and this just urges the shorters on

If NMC and Freeh wait to the last possible moment to release news on review which is effectively the end of this month. Then it pains me to say it but this stock is heading for the 6s, based totally on its trending characteristics and trajectory since the news of Freeh came out. The bears / shorters will not relent and let up here on until concrete or fact based news comes out and the longer it takes to come out to report the ‘primary’ findings, the more confident that they will believe there could be some holes within it.

The way i see this now, they are in a win-win situation here as they drive the price lower and lower on no news, so by the time news come out, even if is really positive, the share has been driven so low they have created a cushion to close out. And if the news Is not so great, then it will continue to get smashed further or just kept in the slumber for month and years until wholesales changes are made to the business or it goes into the hands of private equity firms

Pretty sombre outlook, but giving a frank opinion here after being in this company many months.

Gap between buy and sell trades still growing - most likely finishing red unless further news comes out

# Trades 12,498
Vol. Sold 2,010,150
Sold Value £19m
Vol. Bought 1,495,518
Bought Value £14m

I think buyers have probably been sucked dry today from morning session and this could float down to low 9s if stop losses get triggered.

Blimey opening hike has been quickly wiped out

Shorts I think knew news on Shetty was coming hence the mad action on Mon and Tue

Big 10% step jump

Share Buybacks by company are all declared through RNS - ‘Transaction in own shares” or something similar...

Interestingly - tonight’s market close trades have barely any sells. Putting the £5m UT to one side there is a only tiny handful of sell trades, with highest amount being £10k. Have not seen this trend in previous 2 days.

Psquared reduced to 0.75% on Monday. Not as big as thought but still reducing. Expecting more to tomorrow to reflect Tue

NYSE opens at 14:30

If there were huge short exits Mon and Tue that explain those massive buy trades, this sp might just settle down a bit now and just wait for news. We will only find out on shortracker this avo and tomorrow if this has been the case

Trying to process all that has happened in last 2 days of trading along with all the news and MW tweet. This is what I found and think.

Key figures for me today are the sheer volume of sell trades over 4m shares sold and £41m in value

Below is summary of today’s day trading
# Trades 18,521
Vol. Sold 4,091,056
Sold Value £41m
Vol. Bought 2,138,601
Bought Value £21m

Then you have the big £47m buy trade of 4.6m shares which represents a 2.2% holding and no associated sell trade of equivalent size although total number of shares sold is over 4m and pretty close

In theory, this could be the sum of AQR and PSquared cashing in at same time, but this could only be to a single donor as i it is a single massive buy. The only donor to have this size of collateral outside of owners is Capital Group and they could have even lent more yesterday and today for new short positions and here is why

you also have a £11m UT trade and market close in there aswell, which i see as as a pre agreed transfer of shares. So what I believe has been going on here is that you have a coordination of both big shorts like AQR and Psquared plus other smaller shorts who have taken out renew short positions in just last couple of days.
Remember stock has managed to swing from mid 11s all the way down to mid 8s since yesterday, the % drop form a short perspective is still 30% profit. It’s the same profit margin as going from £30 to £20 . This can only happened with a concerted effort by shorters working together like an orchestra and then you have the conductor, in this case MW who puts a well timed tweet in response NMC knowing full well that NMC had to respond to the fiasco yesterday on the sp plus the rumors and speculation spread by FT yesterday which was intentional to set up further manipulation for today’s carnage.

But, even if this sound far fetched, all this fiasco on sp has been only possible a due to the fact that NMC and a Freeh have been taking far longer than expected to release their primary findings which I don’t think even shorters may have necessarily expected, but for them has been a fully taken advantage of.

And now with the price being so low for such an extended period of time this has now attracted takeover bids to add even more noise and complexity of where this company will be in next 3-6 months.

This week needs to be when concrete news comes out to stop all this madness

This will follow same pattern tomorrow and day after , and day after that on no concrete news. Pumping and dumping baby. That is the meal ticket for this week for this sp
All aboard?!!!

Yeah that was £4m trade we saw, plus other s in 100ks we saw in Friday close.

If we can confirmation tomorrow of Monday’s immense trades were shorts also, then this quash all rumors of big investor liquidations as we can substantiate this ourselves with available data.

This could be the reason why the shorts could be pushing really hard. As they have a 48hr window before their change in positions are disclosed and any other speculation that has been put out in mkt place is then quashed.

That’s the only hope we have here

Just read MW tweet. Looks like a loaded comment to me and they probably know who has dumped stock yesterday. Either Capital Group Is involved and this is a final manipulated onlslaught or Shetty himself (via a whistleblower maybe in Freeh advising ). Even FT was involved in rumour mill yesterday similar to co-ordinated attack when they released news post MW report of a £200m deal that never completed but allegedly was going to be funded through more debt.

This is all very calculated. AQR and Psquared traders who were the original big shorter pre MW attack are going to enjoy very early retirement
