An unusual change has occurred in my Interactive Brokers Pro account.

I've just noticed.

Capita (cpi) shares short selling available to lend by 4 lenders has changed from what has been for various months till now an average of 8millions shares available from 3 to 4 lenders to today dropping down to just 719k shares from 3 lenders inventory based in the UK.

That's the lowest I've seen since months ago. What does it mean all these changes to us punters? Don't know for sure if it's a good or a bad thing or if those previously shown higher volumes that were available have been picked up and now put to use or that the amount that was put out for shorting purposes has been reduced or withdrawn by those UK lenders. Soon we will know if it will have anything to do with days to come the cpi shares price direction.

Strange indeed. I've been waiting for my CityIndex app to work again since I first noticed 1 hour ago and their app flagged up a Cloudfare web server unknown system error originating from their Manchester based Cloudfare server. Anyhow, that's their very first time they've been down for so long. They're will be many punters suffering losses at not being able to log into their platforms.

For the record I don't spread bets anymore. I use their apps for share price signal movements which tend to be helpful when day trading.

Okay Trisor. I shall take your version of understanding.

I guess I need to learn to interpret better those tipranks articles or I'll find myself at the wrong end of the channel.😉👍

[No further action from the Secretary of State under the UK’s National Security and Investment Act]

So it's a done deal and nobody from the UK government can stop it according to that article.

I thought the Secretary of State still had a saying. I guess nothing is ever written in stone.

Also please see what it's being said in this article:

The completion of the sale is expected towards the end of August, pending no further action from the Secretary of State under the UK’s National Security and Investment Act.

Hi DARKBLUE

Thanks bruv😍

Imho it's a good find.

1 year only worth of work.

If you think that they recently renewed that contract with Kent Public Services for £30millions over 4 years, I guess they've got themselves a good deal.

Your wish has been listened to Kipper9 😉

Over to you AimMaster2018

I'm switching off my commentary line in cpi for today. Please do keep track of this and don't get pulled in and be to keen to trade when imho is not that time yet. It's every man for themselves.

Take😉care bruv👋🏻

You're such an irresistible Clickbait🎣GoCpi

[The Clickbait word use and its meaning]

It typically refers to the practice of writing sensationalized or misleading headlines in order to attract clicks on a piece of content. It often relies on exaggerating claims or leaving out key information in order to encourage traffic. The term is generally used in a dismissive sense.

How could anyone not adore and not fall in love with GoCpi comments on my posts?

Oh well, they've got themselves a fan and that's me me.🫠

Oh well have it your way SimonJPassmore🙄

Sooner rather than later you'll have to go down the route of eating your own comment. There's never been a first time like the very first time.

Try it and if you like it then hit it one more time for good measures😂

My point is....

Wait for a proper pullback and tgen consider it further.

So my advice to anyone who wants to add more or join for tge first time cpi to hold and wait. You're not going to miss the great Capita Cruise Line. She's not yet ready to sail out. WAIT🫷

What I've notice AimMaster2018 in the last few days?

Most of yesterday trading was based on a mixture of AT transactions with a good dose of the FTSE negative and positive algo feeding through the cpi share price making go up and down like being on a rollercoaster.

But today no algo of any kind is moving cpi other than those constantly firing AT buy and sell trades. Cpi is purely being kept going by AT transactions.

The way I see it AimMaster2018 is that with this latest Rbc trading update followed by the later arrival of the Shore buy rating that seems to be stuck on a repeat loop, imho soon will start to have its effect.

It's an unfortunate situation for the current LTH and the recent ones that have just joined cpi. I don't wish anyone to lose money or be affected financially by this latest improved Rbc rating. But, I cannot ignore their constant involvement and capability to stir up trouble specially after what they've not long ago caused of which I was also part of when they crashed cpi down towards 12p direction. So, let's not kidd ourselves and be aware.

AimMaster2018

It's a very tricky question AimMaster2018

We just don't know that; yet!

The appearance of still some large [O] buy purchases does seem that those punters are quite happy to run the gauntlet and take their chances and hope for the best.

But the reality is that the trading volumes are getting thinner and thinner from either sides and would eventually require some intervention from the Market Makers and friends alike to stir up some business or it will stale up the rhythm of the day trading.

They don't have it and never had put a figure on their buy targer price AimMaster2018

They're obviously afraid to commit to put their finger on it and be bitten off by those then would curse their name if it doesn't come through🤣

Today Rbc published their new stock rating for Capita and placed a 'sector perform' target price of 22p.

I've never been impressed by neither Shore or Barclays stock analysts for when it comes to cpi.

I do have seen other stocks react after a stock broker upgrade or downgrade by their ratings, but not cpi. Not once, but Citibank and the Rbc analysts have demonstrated the capacity to create havoc specially for the Cpi shareholders.

Nevertheless, their ratings start loose some effect and relevance after various months have passed.

It just like a bad snake bite that has a kind of venom that doesn't really kill you but leaves the victim worse for wear but eventually gets over the incident and survives and gets back on their feet to continue with their onward journey wherever that maybe.

[Understanding Market Perform

The phrase "market perform"

Market Perform in the Context of Other Analyst Recommendations

The two most powerful analyst calls are buy and sell ratings. Research has shown that buy recommendations are slightly more powerful in the market overall and they can accelerate a stock. The sell recommendation can lead to some acceleration, but it is most pronounced when a stock is already disliked by the market. Market perform sits between these two polar opposites, and that results in it being read as one or the other.

Is that what you've asked ?

This is a screenshot from the RBC own website. I'm able to see it using a backdoor entry using an old script still functional that allows me to generate an updated share price rating on any stocks that the RBC investment bank analyst is actively covering.

Here is it: https://ibb.co/HNsbmXG
