On 100 shares traded! Go figure! Nothing to do with Trades; it’s a straight ‘tick up’ to ‘keep up’.

... As I mentioned it might last week, but today it has blown the 32p (resistance1) house down. Next Resistance point is 36p. . . .

Hi Ivy, yes very much so. They're super compliant (obsessively so!) But very good at what they do. As are Invesco; though a slightly more agile/faster beast! ATB

Trust me here! M&G do NOTHING blindly - or quickly come to that! This will have been very carefully thought hrough and then presented to the committee for formal investment approval. Their % increase is a very promising sign...

They have substantially increased marketing spend, especially TV advertising in the lead up to Christmas (very good ads I thought!) so lots of money spent in good faith. The outcome? A fall in sales of over 5%. This is a killer combination and will be treated with a marked down-tick in the share price on opening. Sad really, as we all want Debenhams to thrive and survive but the CEO has got this all wrong. Then again, not sure anyone else would have done any better, as the all important footfall has also crashed. No feet - no spend! Good Luck to everyone here....

Then there are the after hours buys today (lots of them too) at as high as £1.01p. And ALL of them ‘O’ Trades! Mad. Delayed from yesterday? Who knows, but it’s crazy hard to get a grip on this one. My guess is back up we go tomorrow and/or Friday. . . .never, ever, seen so many ’A’ Trades in one day - ever. ATB

The money that gets made with a ‘nod and a wink’ over a bottle of 1982 Chateu Lafitte, at a very cosy and expensive restaurant in EC2! For the rest of us, tomorrow is another day. ATB!

Clearly when last they met (face to face update meeting, being major investors), M&G did their usual ‘reading between the lines’ and general ‘body language’ observations and decided to buy more. They don’t get ‘told much’ because they can’t (price sensitive info), but they are very good at “listening” and “observing” in the Board Room; drawing their own conclusions from such meetings. Nothing ‘gets said’, but everything ‘gets said’, if you know what I mean. It’s how these City institutions get ahead and make big money, long before the rest of us find out anything - by which stage the money has long since been made!

100% on the same page. I work very closely with M&G as you well know; they’re a good outfit. BUT, and very importantly, they are VERY conservative and considered. Their % increase here, is therefore ‘particularly’ interesting at this critical point...

I for one do not remotely think that any capital raise is on the cards. It would be horrid timing at this incredibly critical stage.

Or know something that the wider market doesn’t . . .

thanks. Pretty important increase in the scheme of things. Especially at this very critical stage. Seems they’re confident...

Ivy which page details the M&G holding as I can’t find it! Doh.

Good to be a total loser on this occasion! Very good! :)

Truck loads of buys and what will they drop it to by end of play? Bet you any money that we don’t stay at up .85p.

98% Auto Trades - so it's being manipulated totally. In other words, it's guesswork here as robots are doing whatever they like with it.

Has there ever been a day when we can use the word 'clearly with MTFB!?! Has a share ever been more 'unclear' in its daily workings!?!! Get what your meaning though...ATB

After a day of almost unrelenting buys yesterday, a virtual see of blue here and barely an ‘A’ Trade to blame it on(!), we move up by a paltry 0.60p. What on earth does it take here?! On NASDAQ it moved up by 7% with just over 1,000 shares traded (just after Christmas). This is controlled like no other share I have ever owned; it’s bordering on fraudulent. That said, we remain at just over the vital 30p support mark, so that’s a good thing. ATB and here’s to a MTFB Happy Wednesday! 🤪

the £1 mark is such an important barrier. If we go through it then it is looking very good for the short/medium term. Resistance1 is currently £1.01p and the next Resistance point is then £1.51p (taken from 'Barclays Technicals' today). ATB

which I paid c.30p (going by memory) for and sold for over £3!! SWEET :)
