Jimmy - you're like the office gossip. For a non-holder, why are you so interested in what Mo is doing or Amigo in general? You sold out years ago, get a life.

Talk about having a dig at the banks and the hedge funds Oke. No doubt that he's gone to war with all of them now, he's out and THG are done as a listed company in the UK

It's the same video that he posted on LinkedIn, he's just posted it to IG.

Whilst it's hard to defend him when you think about his guidance misses and behaviour as a CEO of a listed company, its also hard not be inspired by the video he's posted. He's doesn't give a f### anymore and is now determined to burn everyone that crossed him. As long as he doesn't burn the PIs, this will be a great end to the THG London listing story

Good luck guys - LTH and traders alike! Hope it all works out.

I noticed that AS, Numis caught with their tail between their legs

And back into auction for the 3rd time in 18 minutes...can't take your eyes of it really (even though I said I would ignore short term price movements!)

Agree GY - they will be deductible against THG profits only, it would take a very creative accountant (or one of the guys from Arthur Anderson/Enron) to apply them elsewhere!

Agreed. The results themselves are nothing to write home about, however, with the proposal we are in a different place right now. Those expecting MM to comment on the speculation, prepare to be disappointed. They will do what they did last time and disregard it as flim flam. Sit tight, watch, wait and ignore the price movements.

well...either some short positions are closing or something else is happening. 64% on the day

you'd have to pay around 250k per year stock!

Don - I dont disagree with you here. I've not seen ANY public press speculation.

It could be a stalking horse to force other potential bidders to show their hands or for MM to put an MBO offer on the table. Either way, it's positive.

Lordeh...i had the same feeling. It was ridiculously out of character. Maybe we were right all along and this Steve really does work for a Hedge fund....and they decided switch their position from short to long!

Only the Oracle of Hull can tell us for sure.....

That he did. He should set up a twitter account "TheHullSpy" I'm sure we'd all follow it.

Be like Steve.

I put this rise down to Steve in Hull. Steve has always been down in the dumps about THG and his large average. However, Steve finally decided to take an optimistic attitude last week and has now seen a positive reaction. Be like Steve.

Its coming down now...lots of day traders getting out, but hey, the RNS is there now. Time to sit back and relax for once

Some large trades going through the book now...70 has just been hit

Agree with Pokerchips, it's the most plausible scenario. Guess we will all find out in due course.

Hi - the Bloomberg data was correct as of 5pm on 12th April. Agree about Threadneedle, it is strange to say the least. I personally rust the data from Bloomberg as opposed to any other website, but hey, you never know.

Agree Trotsky...there is no evidence to say that this is another Carillion. It will be interesting to see if Asteriscos sell off more of their position, if they don't, its most likely that the current trades were just some spring cleaning of their portfolio. Personally, I never believed that they were planning to take over paypoint, despite their large holding. Next dividend should be due around July, price action should be interesting over that period.
