I see on Shortracker that two funds are short, combined 1.15% shares. thats 2.6m shares short, they are brave. If special dividend payed this year and with the normal dividend thats around 200p in my calculation they have to pay back.

Ok see your point, hopefully news on the special dividend next month. CEO bought shares over £25 thats good, always like to see director buys. So at £25 p.e 21 which is still cheap for a growth tech share.

Matt I don't know where your getting 17 pe from, full year 2016 eps was 71.61c convert to pounds roughly 59p. Look at their results.

Disappointing when a company is on a high p.e 36 and there is a hiccup HP revenue down 8% the shareprice gets hammered.

With the proposed special dividend and our normal dividend the yield will be around 10% tis year. what a cash cow this company is.

Nice to see one of the Daily Mail tip of 2017 at 2179p. Ex dividend 5th Jan. http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/investing/article-4077064/The-hottest-stocks-grow-portfolio-Experts-reveal-share-tips-2017.html

I think it's the first big downgrade on this stock, can't remember another one.

Big downgrade by UBS today.

We are in, no rns needed. Arm delisted 6pm Friday. Spoke to stock exchange.

We will be in FTSE 100 tomorrow 5th Sept.

Matt Until I see a rns from Micro Focus, still won't be believe we will replace Arm. Just wondering what date they do valuation. Seeing we are ex div today, does that count. Lot of questions.

I must admit strange no rns, we are top of reserve list for Arm, in theory Arm deal I suppose could fall through and they stay where they are in the Footsie. Just have to wait and see.

Trust me we are in Arm delists 5th Sept, we take their place?

Yesssssss it's been confirmed we are in from Sept 5th.

Matt I think its calculated when Arm officially delists, so company with highest market cap. Seeing we go ex div tomorrow of course shares will fall, effects market cap, so bit unfair if they don't take that into consideration. Just have to wait and see.

Matt Arm delisting 5th Sept, someone takes their place, if it was calculated on Tuesday closing price then its us. Fingers crossed, but may be announced after close of business today, then we shall see who takes Arm place.

It was as good article, excited about other uses for their systems. The great thing is the users can use their smartphones so the sky unlimited, Uber perhaps.

I see a lot further to rise, don't forget dollar earners been given a 15% boost from the weak pound since Brexit. May not show in the Sept figures, but next set should be superb.

Number 95th by market cap, surely we get in. Sept 2nd review. http://www.stockchallenge.co.uk/ftse.php
