focusIR May 2024 Investor Webinar: Blue Whale, Kavango, Taseko Mines & CQS Natural Resources. Catch up with the webinar here.
Took my 15 minutes just to add a relatively small amount as a top up. Now i need a coffee. No cash left, all in.
Ok and what if your house is on a cliff edge and is in danger of falling into the sea ? Then these offers look good do they not !
So what will be tomorrow ?
Toffers you can test liquidity by placing a quote and deal, it showed plenty of liquidity for a very large buy order.
I checked the same and no problem in buying so there is stock, so my limit orders are in place and good luck to all.
Not sure if this is relevant but Cheltenham celebrates its 100 years of the famous Gold cup. And JD always goes, so I wonder if he wants to wrap this all up before then ? Would be a good launch date and lots of free publicity. If i was him i might even pick Gold cup week, it will be the only news at the races and all the restaurants in Cheltenham and hotels etc. Its a sunny day today, going to enjoy the sun, good luck to all and as many already say, DYOR.
Toffers you seem to want to dismiss JH and his role in making SD the design house it was, look at 2013 to 2016, this was JH, the share price was around 15 pounds, then a bumper year in 2017 when it peaked at just north of 20 pounds after the product line, developed by JH. Then JH resigns so no creative director and at this time along comes Sutherland and 2018 and the shares dropped to 5 pounds, then JD comes back in 2019 but we then get Covid and Brexit and Boris and retail gets hit.
Right now JH seems to be in transit, no projects, and JD wants to take full control. So in my mind put the 2 original forces that created a Billion pound company, they might shred SD in the initial stages, but JH was the design force and SD needs someone to inspire its design team, its running empty in this area and needs a complete revamp.
I think JD and JH are both heavily motivated to make SD a success and this renewed enthusiasm will also be welcomed by their backers, the banks. In recent years i know designers that have left SD as it was not a creative place to work, i would like to think that JH returning will change this and reinvigorate the brand.
Thats interesting because at that time the shares were trading at around 4 pounds so i assume he cashed out. Also interesting is the fact that at one time he was worth 165 Million !
We all know from reading the RNS feeds that the last form 8.3 released near to the closing bell on Friday had a surprise for all of us, it declared that the ordinal co-founder of SD had a 5% stake in SD. After some digging from others on the board the question was raised to has he maintained his shares in SD since departing in 2016 or were these newly acquired. We now know that others here who have researched this , and importantly provided lists naming the main shareholders and JH is not on these forms so its safe to assume that this is a recent buy back into the company and this would make sense if there is a plan to relaunch SD with JH returning as the design and product director, his former role in the company. If your take is different then lets discuss.
Its very odd, such a late declaration considering the size of his holdings, so James H and JD back together ? I think its more than possible. Certainly the designers i know at SD would welcome it.
JD needs to own 30% to bid, so actually he gets it for 70M, and now we know the former founder of SD, James, has 5M shares , and James has deep pockets, its looking more likely than not that there will be news. Why go the CVA route when for 70M you get to full control !
Don, he cashed out and took another stake recently, and James is not on a rocking horse, he is 53.
Now this would be interesting if the two J's got back together again and reshaped SD. This is an interesting development and certainly no one here has even detected this before. Now they were a real strong team and i wonder what are their plans ?
I know who this person is, the one named in the RNS drop, i always assumed he was out of SD, never new he still had a stake in SD, its the original business partner of JD. I knew he went back in but not at what level, this was within the last year or two.
Ok so this is how the board is going, well all you impotent schmucks who want to keep posting then do so, but JD is the only man in this room.
As everyone says on this board, do your own research and i have done mine, many buy orders all placed, today is a topping up day, good luck to all.
Thank you for the clarification, i did not understand it either.
Toffers again i agree, all these posts with many wild statements, but they don't know JD, and his other businesses' he owns in Cheltenham would be affected. Its interesting as you ask yourself, are you investing in JD or the company ? For me its both, without JD i would not touch this stock, but as its JD then its yes all day long. Again good luck with your investment and as always many thanks for your incisive postings.
Agree, and today was a good day, its turned blue and closed up on no news, so like others i topped up today, even added more in the last 5 minutes. Might even match your number of shares at weeks end at this buy rate.
Yes i do the same, finally 2 have gone through and still have another 5 just sitting and in place.
