'Is this shorts closing'?
Doesn't look like it I'm afraid. The round number sells are still around taking the edge off any rise.
This is a curious short. For quite a bit of the time they seem content with preventing a further rise rather than pushing it down further but are willing to use the opportunity that something like the last RNS provided to do just that.

The balance of cash/shares sounds like it's still under negotiation.

As we know, there will be lots of roles for AFC over the next 30 years.

If a company was due to benefit from payment by a large number of shares in the near future, how legitimate would it be to either directly or indirectly short said share in order to receive more shares?
Is it just the case that if the original agreement and shorting are legal, then the behaviour would be legal?

I think they'd be obliged to notify the market if they were buying back.

Suspect this is connected with China trying to cool off its construction sector. Same effect is pushing iron ore prices down.

Anyone?

12.24 just reversed. Shame as that looked interesting.

Monday if the buys at 11.41 and 12.24 are anything to go by!

Last trade was showing as 62p on google.

Just under 6.75 M sold in 3 large trades after the RNS.
Did it trigger something?

Sounds to me like Professor Christensen has been keeping a running list.
Would be useful if the vanadium battery industry had access to it or produced their own version.

Competitive bids would be even better.

Who is the other question but then it always has been.

I think Pat was referring to the 600k thrown on just after 4 o'clock and yes it today did have the feel of a large buy behind the scenes dragging the bid up.
Earlier 3 x 250k trades seem to have been reversed and reported late.

Seller working hard this morning.
3 x 250K sells in the first hour
Good sign that they're having to work hard.

Looks like lots of PI buying as well. Perhaps they sense the bottom.
Anyone got any insight into the sequence of 500k trades going through?

It's not looking like betamax in China and I can't think why it would be in S Africa if there is an intention to develop domestic owned resources.

Lack of buyers and low confidence are in part related to the poor communications.
The clear beneficiary of not shouting the BMN story is the seller/s. Whatever they're up to it has been made easier by the lack of news flow most of the time.

At some point with the takeover explanation they would have to show their hand. BMN is still predominantly owned by retail investors and the AIM herd would pile in. This would be a straightforward if annoying outcome that might lift many PI's out of the red.
