Fairly certain that 'Consumer Voice' will go ahead Basher, if only because they are clearly a front for CMC's and in this case Courmac Legal.

Their interest doesn't lie with consumers in any way, they purely exist for claims purposes....they don't even have any staff and their accounts show they have no assets to speak of.

As for Stupmy's £3.88 call....on what possible basis do you forsee another collapse to this level.....no chance!!

You're are undoubtedly right Jerry, though there is still a part of me that wishes they had challenged the FCA and showed up the scheme for what it is.

As for Consumer Voice....clearly nothing more than a paid mouthpiece for Courmac's.

Another significant downgrade and a very negative commentary to accompany it.

'"Future currently has a very low valuation on near-terms multiples, trading on a FY26E EV/EBITDA of 3.8x and PE of 3.3x. However, we do not see these multiples as a valuation support," said the Canadian bank, which has a 'hold' rating on the stock. The structural threat of AI, declining traffic, and limited visibility all raise questions like, whether there will be further potential downgrades and whether business would see sustainable future top line growth or not. Without growth recovery, we believe Future will remain at a structurally challenging valuation."

You have to assume that this is being entirely driven by the likes of Courmacs and other ambulance chasing law firms who can see their huge commissions disappearing.

This could be the first consumer support organisation that actually wipes out potential customer compensation through their ignorance and incompetence.

I would add Losilost, that my views on the SP were more short term than long term - 6 months.....and it is clearly just my opinion, with much of my negativity being based around my very low opinion of the CEO and board.

Longer term this could recover to a higher level, I'm just not sure how at the moment but then I'm not privy to the internals of the company.

My average is around £5.50 so I'm also hoping that a higher level than I suggested can be achieved longer term.

It's worth remembering that this has been battered by the shorts and has probably been one of the most shorted shares in the FTSE for a while now. If sentiment were to change we could see a decent rise fairly quickly.

With the current board in charge I'd be delighted with £4 LB.

What is a fair price target? probably around £5 IMO.

Just availed myself of 4.65% for 1 year bond.

Seems quite good and may not be available for too long if situation in middle east gets resolved.

Time for Bellway to kick on now, especially as expected interest rate rises may not materialise if a deal can be reached in the middle east.

Could be good for £24-25 in next 6 months.

Very good question and an interesting point you make Liberty.

TBH, I'm a somewhat emotional investor and expect instant results; though it's something I've been learning to work on, largely due to some sound observations and advice from fellow board members.

I will not be selling any of my core holding at this point, it still remains a long term investment and I'm interested to see what may happen with Divis or buybacks etc. in the future.

I satisfy my speculative side now by trading on dips/rises with about 25% of funds I keep back solely for this purpose with CBG and it's actually proved to be quite lucrative, so it's all good 😊

Still always happy to receive feedback/advice, it's been something of learning curve with this company for me.

I can feel another Email coming on to Viceroy.....maybe we should have a whip round for them and the other shorts 😂😂😂

Yeh, interesting point Basher.

I'd also add, I do so hope that Viceroy still have their short in play, which is entirely possible as they suggest on their site that they often hold these positions for some time. Let them watch the SP sail past £5, £6......😊

100% Basher.

This still makes my blood boil, the idea of paying out compensation to people who had absolutely no issue with their loan agreements until some ambulance chasing law firms got involved and Rathi decided he wanted to set his sights on a political career....it's all BS.

I'd personally be delighted if this was challenged in the courts.

Make your own judgement on what type of person he is. Few other articles around as well.

Been reading up on Viceroy DD1980....it's just 3 blokes, with the company registeted in Delaware. There are several articles online about one individual in particular, with a decidedly dodgy background, who seems an absolute prick.

They have no other documented investors, just appearing to link up with larger hedge funds to execute their short strategy and get 'paid off', after writing, certainly in this case (and in others), a BS report.

All looks decidedly dodgy IMO and they've certainly had issues with regulators and others as to the legality of their actions and statements in the past.

All in all they just appear to be chancers and more of an irritation than anything else.

Seems likely that poor old Viceroy or one of the other shorts are looking to recover some losses from yesterday, in Viceroy's case probably in a fit of pique, .all fairly futile IMO, let's hope they get burned again.

Still, presented an opportunity for a small top up.

The start of a long and sustained rally (we can always dream), or a brief rise, followed by the inevitable fall and finish somewhere between 2.80-2.85

'whilst throwing shareholder under the double decker'

I wish someone would throw you under the double decker!

You are incredibly tedious, constantly posting the same BS as Chid or your latest alias, literally hundreds of posts, all exactly the same....utter drivel!!

You really are a sad little man/woman/some other gender.

Couldn't stop myself 😀

You got it hopelessly wrong and have now been caught out....dry your eyes and move on.

The report you produced was laughable...though I suspect you knew that....yet you're now behaving like a petulant child.

Time to close those positions and it might be prudent to take the report off your website....not a good look!!

At least this episode has had some benefits; a chance to add a considerable chunk at a bargain price and the knowledge that no-one will ever believe you again....your reputation is in the gutter.

Seems to be buy in the 270's, sell in the 290's at the moment Blooby.

Glad you're on track to erase your losses, I need about another 25 weeks!!

May as well keep trading when opportunities present themselves because, sadly, I don't believe this is going anywhere until we have a competent board.

Should also add that we've seen a significant reduction in short positions over the past few days (Around 1.3%) which has had no impact whatsoever.
