Options will be lost if not taken up (exercised)
But once taken up NEED NOT BE SOLD!!!!

Any increase in share price will ALWAYS be more than taxes paid (as no tax is 100%+)

"Sell them before they drop further" is the message to us
Very disappointing he didn't keep these shares

Tiger is back at the top after 10 years

Is it true that Governmentium possesses extreme magnetic qualities that can suck up gold, silver, platinum from thousands of miles away?

THIS DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO ME!!!!

Globalisation has grown due to advances in transportation and communication technology. With the increased global interactions comes the growth of international trade, ideas, and culture.

We raised a massive £95m by a placement of new shares.
So lack of cash has not reduced profits by major infrastructure costs imo

Bottom line is we desperately need our net profits (EPS) to increase, rather than floundering every year

£m19.9/17.9/14.6/0.97 are our net profits for 2015/6/7/8

Debenhams (LON:DEB) (in administration)

On a related note, I didn't realise how much money Mike Ashley had ploughed into Debenhams shares - £150 million! If he can get it so badly wrong, that seems like a good reminder of just how difficult it is to get it right in this arena. And also a reminder that equity is a very dangerous asset class.

The lenders who have taken control of Debenhams are said to include a couple of banks, along with the distressed debt investors GoldenTree and Silver Point.

They are the only ones who might be able to come out of this process with a win, and they took on much less risk than Mike Ashley did with his purchase of the ordinary shares in the open market. I'm sure they did a full scenario analysis and figured out that even in a worst-case scenario, the losses wouldn't be too awful.

As a general principle, it's far safer to buy the distressed debt of a struggling retailer, rather than its equity.

Ashley's strategy looks more like dangerous, risk-seeking behaviour than it does a sober investment programme. Hopefully he can avoid falling into the same trap in future!
