BMN: Normally i don't comment on cros BB references. Been in BMN for a good while. Had a great run so far. Worth having a look at if you are looking for other homes for your money. DYOR. Not a recommendation to invest purely to investigate.

Do bpc have the option to reject the 3 month extended period? What message would people take from that if they do? I would view it as a very positive message, to me it suggests 1 of 2 things. Either BG do not approve of the major. ...why would bpc be the one to reject the extension? Or it confirms confidence in the ability to negotiate better terms elsewhere. Flip side major are playing serious hardball and offering single digit pct terms for bpc. Again not sure why bpc would not allow the extension to bank the cash and hold the line at a higher pct

Is the option to extend on a month by month basis or are we looking at a straight 3 month extension? (Not sure how to make this post more rampy or de-rampy so will just ramp the fresh fruit and veg from your local farm shop - tastes good and is allegedly healthy)

I would put a value of £5.00 on the rose coloured glasses if they are supermarket own brand.

To value a BPC share just look somewhere in the middle of the spread, that is the value today.
If you look tomorrow it will be somewhere in the middle of the spread again.
As with any company it is only worth what someone will buy or sell a share for.

after the buzz of activity earlier in the week today feels like a quiet day.

one thing for sure regards the share price, whatever it is right now it will change.

share prices have a habit of moving both ways.
The swings here are good for traders, the more recent trend (3 month time window) has been good for holders.
there will be traders who trust the fundamentals but want the instant gratification (and cash) that can come from trading. Some will be lucky and be invested when a positive RNS comes out. Others will be unlucky and curse the decision to trade when a positive RNS comes out.
The reverse is also true for negative RNS release.

(this balanced posting is tiresome)

do your own thing, invest, sit on the sidelines, short, it is your call.
Do your research, make your choice, go on instinct, be led by the postings of others, post drivel on a BB or sit quiet in the corner.

Sometimes you are the statue, sometimes you are the pigeon.

Now that's what I call drivel

and for balance sell your unwanted internal organs on the black market and invest the proceeds here.

lets see if that counts as ramping or de-ramping....

I suspect you are right on this one Degsy.
My understanding was that in addition to any negs between BPC and any farm in partner BG had to have approval of the farm in company. On that basis I would not be surprised if this is all wrapped up in a single day of announcements.

EA approval RNS
BG approval of BPC farm in partner RNS.
BPC and Farm in joint RNS.

all holders here deafened by popping fizzy plonk corks. no RNS required.

I make the list!
I need to be more careful in the tone of my message.
I hold shares here. lots of them.
I try not to suggest anyone else buys sells or holds but that they do the research and take the position that fits for them.

I must counter my obvious ramping by suggesting everyone sell everything, shares, property, children everything. Find a religious commune to move to. Maybe the end of the world is closer than we think?
At that stage BPC becomes as relevant as bikes for fish.

maybe there was more choice on the menu than they are used to at the golf club?

I accept your apology in advance.

and that is mildly racist....

The RNS could mean we are in the final stages of dotting i's and crossing t's before news is released tomorrow.
equally it could mean there is no change to what you already know, we have been playing golf for the past few weeks while the major does what it needs to do.

the point is there is no RNS to release from BPC saying the deal is done until there is a deal done.

share price volatility is a traders dream, long term prospects that become realised are a long term holders dream.
If holders hold and traders trade the holders do not lose and the traders win or lose between themselves.

If there is no news then the paper rise in your value of BPC is all down to traders trading. You make a decision based on the price if you want to join in by buying or selling.

MM's have feelings too.
no idea what those feelings are. I suspect smugness comes out close to the top but WTFDIK
DYOR - pin down and tickle anyone in that field until they tell you everything.

GLA LTH I have a feeling the vast majority will see themselves in profit here in the weeks ahead.

think of it as 30p target moves to 35p target. (approx.) suddenly that small difference in entry price makes sense.

I have a lower target price to buy more, only because I can not face the additional cost to cover an extra grandchild at these levels.
I hope I never see the target price I had set.

nothing personal JM but I do hope you are now locked out of this with a 4.8 target price.
Fingers crossed you have left enough on the table after top slice to make you a very healthy return.

OilBell. you may be right, you may be wrong. Either way I applaud your open and honest posting there.
If you are wrong and BPC flies you still make a good return on the de-risked holding.
If BPC does not fly you have made some money on the rise to date, I hope that covers anything you have left on the BPC alter.

I have often thought about doing the same but I am greedy for more. If it fails that is unfortunate but not catastrophic. 6 months ago I had written the value off to zero in my holdings with a view to leave 1m shares to each of my grandchildren, in the hope one day BPC would give them a boost in life.
As we sit here today I can see the price where in place of 1m shares I can leave 1m gbp between them from BPC.
At that level I will take a chunk off the table.

That is not a bad turn in life for a corporation pop child of the world.
