Latest statement is that they expect to deliver £2m profit this year.

Market sentiment appears to be against you. How much did you short for?

Nope. I'm just sitting here saying "told you so" to all the *****y ex-donaldsons staff who got laid off for being crap and posted BS.

I'm not at DTZ (I'm client side) but I wonder whether the ex-Donaldson staff will ever get over being dumped because they were simply not good enough. No? Oh well.

SP nearly doubling in 6 months = "can't see this recovering"??????? Thank god you're not my broker.

Actually, I'm client side. Oh and bar chat... really? If Hanover Sq is really the best you can do for market sentiment then you'll forgive me for giving that kind of chat a wide berth.

If you knew him, you would agree that this is no great loss.

name names!

Which two?

I've just spoken to Richard Stanley... and he has no idea what you're talking about. He's not going to JLL. That said, there are rumblings that there are those who are less then happy with Izdiks number crunching approach. 130 are getting their marching orders in the next few weeks, and the jungle drums says there will be at least one more significant cull (100+) if not two by the end of year.

How long term is long term? Honestly, I think it will be depressed for 2 years. Depending on performance floating 25-50p range. I anticipate market pickup after that period, so maybe within 5 years time back to £2-3 and then upwards for another couples of years thereafter. If a competitior (either Cushmans of maybe JLL) go bust then there might be a rally earlier on. Alot will also depend on what the French want to do. My guess is hold for the short term and if performance improves then maybe a full delisting. Who knows.

Your previous posts were removed for being in breach of the usage terms of this forum... and the same will happen again. Your lies will get you nowhere

... guess.

... it is indeed your paranoia. There have been no discrete meetings. Now ask me how I know.

Some further large purchasese by directors...

At last some sense. But your comment regarding deadwood still seems ill informed. UK Property Management Turnover is £40m Eurovals is the most profitable department of it's in kind in EMEA Strong UK Vals. Middle and Far East offices posting record profits.

... all of which proves you really know absolutely nothing about the company. Ex-donaldsons I presume.

utter twaddle

Honestly... I have no idea. I do not pretend to be a seasoned trader. I've only be in for about a year, and on a comparitively small spread, all of which are Real Estate or Real Estate related. Stick with what you know, I figure. As for recent transactions... very large numbers shifting. Much larger than recently. But the trend today on SELLS has been UP. Very odd. Then there are some very small trades... just one or two shares which cancel out any gains. If I was a cynic, I'd say that someone was selling one or two shares to deflate the price... maybe a shorter. The bigger trades - I'd guess the sellers were large portfolios who are correcting their spread. The buyers... hmmm. Difficult to say. With the St George taking a huge stake, I wonder if it might be DTZ directors buying. The new CEO has publicly said he is taking £1m worth, but I cannot remember if it is from the rights issue or existing stock. Assuming that DTZ survives the current economic climate, I do believe that they will very well. Personally, I'm in from £3 (Oct '07)... so I either have to cut my loss, or hold on for the bounce. Not made my mind up yet.
