15m seller24 Oct 2018 00:30
Mr Hope has been acting not in the best interest of the company.
That we know.
Previously old hope tried to orchestrate a hostile takeover and Outrider had shares.
Now one way he could be acting against the company, is to sell shares in a manner to keep price low.
This short selling an d manipulation of SP was what YA was doing that Zaza was not happy about.
So was Hope trying to play the sp with sells?
Was he acting to keep price down to assist in some kind of takeover?
The one thing that would confuse this, would be..... if Hope (Outrider ) had many million shares - why sell if company was about to increase hugely in value. They could make a mint by holding.
So the question should be, are they sells?
We have all seen transfers into ISA that show as sells when in fact they are sells and buys in effect, as they moved as good rates from account too Isa account.
So unless its the service providers or similar with a need to sell for some reason, then it makes no sense that a holder who must have had in excess of 300m shares to sell, especially with such potential news around the corner.
A 33% rise would be another £15k for same amount of shares
I have sneaky feeling that its a transfer.
Many think the video and Exxon news is related
I think the Exxon news, and end of selling is related too the video
I hope today that the 10m end of day was to clear the final shares.
Companies do buy shares prior to a take over, if they own 10% of a company, its 10% less they have to pay to someone else, They brought that 10% cheaper.
For instance, and just using these numbers for ease of accounting
Company A has 14b shares at 1p
Company B buys 4B at 1p Costing £40m
They then do take over at £1 a share
It cost them £100B for the 10b shares
It actually cost them £100,000,040,000
It would have cost them £140,000,000,000
They now have 4b shares also worth £10B too so can sell them
Now the total savings on that is £40b or just short of that (40m less)
Those figures are totally random and not in any way linked to value of FRR .
They just indicate why a company looking to buy out would benefit by purchasing a percentage of a stock they want to purchase.
It saves them money and makes them money.
Late night musing
