eviking - the cash balance and value per share about the only bits I understood!!

Plenty of positive info about DBays management though, all bodes well I think.

Onwards and upwards.

Wasn't me!! :-)
Big buys good news but plenty of PI's will exit as the SP rises, keeps dragging the SP back again.
Everyone STOP selling, this will continue to rise and more so if you stop selling out too cheap, IMO.

The Final Results for year ending November 2021 are in. The RNS is lengthy and as a novice I find most of it hard to understand but I think it is good, in my opinion.
There were some early sells this morning that dropped the SP briefly now followed by some good buys that have lifted the SP, heading back toward 16p as I type this. Hopefully this is sign the RNS is very good and further buys today should see us firmly over 16p with any luck.
Still holding and waiting.....
Good luck all.

A further 950,000 shares bought back on Tuesday, total now 87,654,594, about 62.61% of target.

Just 75,000 shares bought back yesterday, not enough to affect anything :-(

I know Leedsman, it is SOOO frustrating!
Frankly, it beggars belief. I see other investments rise & fall based on nothing at all and yet with what is happening with the buyback and DBay/LDG/CTH hardly any movement at all.
It simply doesn't make any sense to me but I remain optimistic it will get going eventually.

LDG have now posted an RNS noting DBay's possible offer for CTH.
Still doesn't say if any of LDG's cash pot might be in play for this.
Either way, likely to reflect positively on LDG's current investment in CTH surely.

£1.61 by Friday? If only...
Sounds like finger-in-the-air unfounded baseless ramping to me.
Seriously, where do some posters get their projected SP's from? Disney World or cloud cuckoo land?!
Bonkers!

Some big CTH news this morning - it appears that DBay have made an offer for CareTech for 750p a share and could start a bidding war with Sheikh Holdings for control.
The RNS states that DBay or funds managed by them already hold over 2M CTH shares (we know LDG hold some 1.9M) but doesn't mention what further role - if any - that LDG would play in this offer.
Interesting times ahead?
Maybe....

A further 569,223 shares bought back on Friday, total now 86,629,594, about 61.88% of target.

Still holding....

I don't think there's a bidding war Biscotti, it's the same group - the Sheikh brothers (previous owners) backed by a consortium of other investors - increasing their offer from the original 710p to 725p.
Either way, CTH holding out for the best price if they decide to sell only good for LDG and anyone invested here.
Definitely still undervalued, and getting more so IMO.

Ok, so this is interesting - LDG have invested a further £6,769,069 into CareTech, an additional 974,130 shares @ 695p.
This brings their total investment in CTH to £13,116,740 and raises their average cost to 664.4p per share.
If CTH accept the takeover offer from the Sheikh Consortium @ 725p that would see a healthy 9.12% profit in the space of a month or 2! And if not, still an excellent investment.
That all sound very positive to me but what do I know?

Investec bought back a further 9,300,000 shares yesterday, somehow still managing to keep the SP below 16p?!
The running total now 86,060,371, about 61.4% of target and I would say excellent progress in such a short time given they have until August '23 to complete the buyback.

Good info Biscotti, the consortium offering 725p per share for CTH.
Let's hope CTH doesn't turn out to be "Bad Medicine"!!

The end of Q1 is upon us and no RNS this morning?
Disappointing but not the end of the world, al sells no buys yet this morning but SP holding steady, no panic.
Hold, watch and wait, news will come soon I hope.

A further 599,119 shares bought back yesterday, total now 76,760,371.
Logically, if buying back over 70M shares got the SP from 13p to 16p, then hopefully another 70M should get this from 16p to somewhere near 19p, notwithstanding they are now beginning to invest some of the cash?
Still watching, still hoping.

Morning all, sorry for late update, bit unwell this morning.....

So, yesterday's curious buy almost certainly Investec, they have stated a further 9,426,240 shares bought back on today's RNS. The total now 76,161,252, about 54.4% of the targeted 140M shares.
And yet the SP stuck below 16p - I see there are buys this morning less than 16p too.

@Brooky83 - not sure the price has been frozen, I think stagnant probably more the case unless the markets are doing something deliberately? Re. chat - there used to be lots of different posters on here but now it feels like it's only me and a few others, LDG is a lonely place to be!!

I feel like we need something positive here, just to get firmly above 16p might help.

Some big volume UT's today, but also a very curious 'buy' - 9,211,168 shares @ 16p, but value only shows as £1M when it should be £1,473,786, bit odd??
More than likely Investec mopping up I should think, will know on tomorrow's update.

Better yesterday, a further 1,271,274 added, total now 66,735,012, about 47.67% of target.
I think investors exiting (at a fair price??) are holding this back, plus they are still sat on the cash and apart from the CTH investment aren't doing anything positive/constructive/exciting with it.

Only 257,111 added on Friday, total now 65,463,738, about 46.76% of total targeted.
Nothing else to report yet.
