Wouldn't be surprised if an announcement was made after the market closes.

The share price is still HALF price compared to just before the profit warning last month, and that is before any formal offers are made official.
Lots of upside potential.

I am guessing that any airline that was sitting on the sidelines hoping Flybe would just fold and then get it on the cheap, will have received a wake up call today with the news about Virgin leaking out.
As the price keep rising, they will want to get their offers in quicker now.
Even at 15p it seems way too cheap, and that is before any bidding wars break.

The fact that Flybe have several parties interested is great news for investors.
Certainly think a lot of talking/ deal making will take place over the weekend.
If a bidding war erupts then 15p will seem like a very cheap price to be into this stock (in my opinion).

Certainly been an eventful day for the regulars on here, and even better to have good news flowing.

The fact we have seen a massive rise just on media stories is a good sign that if/when offers come in, Flybe can rise VERY quickly.
Got to be in it to win it ;-)

https://www.headforpoints.com/2018/11/17/why-flybe-will-not-go-bankrupt/ Raises some good points and very positive about Flybe.

I'd say that 3,260,535 @11.25p could be a buy rather than a sell but it is cleverly masked around the mid price.
No sells have been that high today - unless this trade was done during the 8:00 - 8:04 am auction.

Looks like the auction trades between 8am and 8:04 will show up later, but the fact PI then bought shares at 12.35p is a very good indication that the action was very positive. The big boys have bought these today ahead of tomorrow and is a very big positive (imo).

Hold your nerve folks and enjoy the next 24 hours.

This time tomorrow, this chat will be unrecognisable with everyone coming in to buy this stock.

So far 4 minutes of auctions - could be a good sign or another RNS coming with offload.
Hopefully former :-)

Just ahead of the results update, as I said yesterday, we can expect volatility around the results.
Yesterday was a very mild trading day with the share price holding above 11p, even with more sells than buys.

We already know the results won't make wonderful reading BUT the share price collapse appears to be overdone (according to HSBC brokers) and *if* Flybe can deliver results inline with those forecasts, then, in my opinion, 11p will suddenly seem a very cheap price.

This is where we could see a sudden uptick in the share price. For those that have held on - the rewards could be good.
Obviously, if the results are more gloomy than forecast, then the opposite will happen.

I am still leaning towards the 15-20p range.

I think the next few days are going to be very volatile just before and after the results on the 14th.
Will we head for turbulence, just who will come out the other side as winners?
Fasten up, assume the brace brace position and enjoy the Flybe flight! ;-)

GLA.

JRjnr, no relation to the sadly departed JR from Dallas - fair point ( still not sure why they have to wait until Monday, are they not allowed to close their positions on any other day?!).
While it seems logical short selling Flybe is now a waste of time, the same could have been said of Debenhams when it went below 10p mid-September yet currently trades 8.16p.

Let's hope we see a rise in the coming days.

Nearly all the trades today are buys, yet the sp has not risen to reflect this.
I can only guess that either there is a hangover of shares still floating around after the 3 RNS revealed yesterday or ...
another RNS is about to come, further holding down the price.

JRjnr - bit of a wild statement claiming, "all the shorts will close Mon...." - care to explain how you know?

I totally agree that the valuation and share price drop has been completely overdone.
As I shared before, I think 15p would be fair value (and even that is too cheap!) but the constant RNS from the big boys chacking their pants has kept the price down.

Let's hope for no more RNS from them and we push upwards and back to a more realistic valuation price.
Hope those meetings are not too boring BTFATH1 ;-)

All of those points are great
BUT Flybe is not subject to any takeover offers,
No-one has built over a 3% stake (just 13 RNS since profit warning, ALL selling) and finally,
the share price is resting around the 11.00 to 11.50p range today - not challenging 13p etc

Reality over fantasy.

No massive spike
No mystery big buyer of shares ( over the 3% threshold )
No takeover bid

Just a nice quiet tick up, which would be good to see leading up to the midweek results.
Reality over fantasy any day!

No idea who is trading shares (buying or selling), we will only know if it goes over 3% of the shares in issue - so if anyone has more than 6.4m (approx), we will find out.
So far no-one has, just 13 RNS since trading update - all offloading.

I'm not going to do any wild guesses, I just want to see the share price recover.

So far since the trading statement, I think EVERY RNS has been those large institutions offloading with NONE increasing their holding or any new institutions going over the 3% threshold.
Until the HSBC broker update to a BUY (which I'm happy about), this share was heading into single digits.

As I have said in previous posts, until we seen an end to the sell off RNS, it will be hard for the share price to rise.

Believe me, I want it to rise!
I would love it if Flybe became part of a takeover and the results next week were better news.
