Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
@JTMacs yes in this case the theory is no news is good news indeed. As long as there is no BOD or "official" source from either sides denying any rumors it would be good news. SP would probably go north until clarity. I do not think any take over would be at the level many here are starting (realism is needed) however can only be on the the 350P - 400p range which might be rejected......
Warren, seriously! OMG never the case? Oh dear..never mind eh! the good thing in this case, if any more rumors and any hint of confirmation it would be a case where shorters would need to buy back....thanks for your input. PS are you still shorting here? Good luck on Monday it is going to be painful.......
do not ready too much into it. Businesses are required ever so often to release the RNS with the total voting rights. You would notice other companies doing the same today........ what would make this fly is a few more articles at the week end (as long as Lloyds and Metro do not deny anything it can only be good)
Would be interesting, Lloyds name is out if this is just a rumor the bank could simply deny an interest or if they do not rule anything out would push another potential contender to make their move. It is all shaping up quite interestingly , I do not think this would go to the 5£ some are mentioning...I 'd be happy to see the 300p first. But definitively Monday could turn out to be an interesting day (and many small shorters who hang out here would be feeling the pressure.....)
Dogger hope you are seeing someone for whatever issue you got (i.e shares). If you can not afford to lose the lot sell half of it and that is it. You would be out of pocket of 18K but at lest something would be left, and keep the rest hoping for 2 or 5 years time lines. If you do not need the money next month etc check the SP in 2 years time simple as that. Ultimately nobody can tell you what would happen to the SP we all thought we got in at the bottom (hardly anyone has)..... could it go further down? who knows..... but if you are real go and seek help urgently. if you are not "real" seek help regardless
Metro is a long term hold, anyone hoping for a quick turnaround would be disappointed...... one positive side is that it there do not seem to be the large swings we have experienced in the past few months. Shorters would eventually buy back (they might have brought this down as much as they could) and (would be good to look at the trend) would be reducing over the next few months. Ultimately only way for the SP to jump is a Tr1, take over bid that is all (and yes rumor of VH dog's taking the bank private).
You might be right tbh. Look at whole is past posts, all of a sudden he is "down" big time and spreads negativity.... either someone who should never invest or a short trying to worry people by using mental health as a tool and openly says so as an excuse (He was "apparently" on plus and he same pattern was used till the share price started recovering then moved to "metro " on the down trend. Good thing he is good in picking up shares who seems to be shorted quite a bit.....
me shorting? HAHAHHA I am simply not into conspiracy theories etc. The SP will grow but let's be honest it isnt going to grow by the silly amounts many here are stating by next week etc (I would be very happy to be proven otherwise). I have said time and time again, key is for the bank to be able to reduce running costs and the reason the SP has not jumped much more post results is exactly that. PS to make it clear! I would be very happy to apologize to you if a bit approach is made (the higher the bid the happier I would be with my apology....)
did he state this that he was planning to take the company private? You have (and many others) made the silly mistake of falling for the company. Yes it has got great potential but not for the short term. I'd rather prefer a steady increase than a quick jump (followed by a fall ). The takeover is all around an article and made up comment here (let's be honest if it happens we would be the last to know)..... Some sense would help, I dislike de-rampers as much as rampers....
OK with people well deep into Metro but some of have really made the mistake to get too close to the "brand". The issue is not shorters etc (not anymore) but the fact that results were ok but did not clear up potential long term issue (how is the company going to cut costs). Ultimately BOD and PR department must step in ....any rumor would indeed let the SP go high but would result in in coming back as fast.
