again distortion.you stated lombard "had"to buy because of pressure.no evidence to suggest this at all.their reasons for buying are their own and you are not privy to them,unless some form of insider.are you some form of insider as you seen to be unusually familiar with lombard's motives?

again the same one sided distortion.there is no evidence L/O have "had"to buy any. they have simply bought shares for their own reasons ,as to which you are presumably not privy, unless you are some sort of insider .are you some sort of insider?

interesting question about N&G.the actual discount figure is i think 7%,but what they will do next I've no idea.the £6m so far invested at average of about 1.48p is now worth about£1.4m.they must surely have been privy to the plan (will be pretty peeved if not)and perhaps an agreement to buy back the outstanding £2m,to try and preserve somewhat the existing value.clearly if the deal doesn't go through its completely finished so they will,i expect,support it.what concerns me is that the deal has clearly been in the pipeline for a while but no updating of the market as to change in circumstances till now.no doubt the lawyers and advisors will have that point well covered on grounds of commercial sensitivity etc

just repeating the same one sided view.just admit you have no idea what is going happen. that is the only honest view,unless of course you work for lombard and have inside info, which i doubt.and by the way what evidence is there of "all this selling pressure"only one significant holder has reduced in recent months,and if there were significant selling pressure, as opposed to a planned incremental accumulation strategy,Lo would not have been able to absorb it by incremental steps.time to stop digging imo.

funny thing is strangler, i recall saying specifically to rickitikki that i never paid attention to the likes of akers nd mcnulty. wish id paid less attention to myself now!

evening bucolic.glad you had a good time in london.back to the fray!

still drivel booth imo.just one sided deliberatively negative speculation.by all means lets look at the FACTS as you describe them.first lo are not selling down despite your repeated references to past sales several years ago.quite the opposite.they have clearly been accumulating for several months,which can just as easily be construed as a planned incremental policy.they cannot buy too many at one go as its spikes the pricer the next tranche. last increase was 1% as was the one before and the one before that a little less than 1%. if you enjoy trawling through past activities for clues to future events,look at LO's history in proactis and the ultimate very beneficial outcome for those who followed the pattern and invested at the right point.

thanks aimigo. thats helpful

not looking for an argument,just clarification. naps valued at £12m on todays closing price.that is just under. $16m. so what about the $45m.?

think you would have to discount any arithmetical calculations of value based on thew sale price,to reflect the disadvantage to pis etc of being in a private company.that said i agree with the implication that fall today has perhaps been overdone.still a mess though.

also just to complete the unburdening process, i do accept that personally i have been guilty of ignoring or minimising some fairly obvious aspects regarding matchett, which are , with the benefit of hindsight, now pretty clear.sadly that's how hindsight works.

not that it makes any difference now,but i think for the sake of balance,one needs to remember that a lot of people will have been invested here on an entirely different basis from that which has applied for the last year or so.originally i bought into a fairly novel VR company.i didn't predict covid and its complete destruction of that scenario.similarly i didn't predict the napster plan(although i had a very very bad feeling when it was announced as it was obviously weighted heavily in favour of real.i didn't predict the ludicrous N&G arrangement. i think it is at rifle facile to attribute investors misfortunes here to falling in love with a share.i have never been in love with it,although i have been overly optimistic in averaging down when pretty clearly all was not well.current losses now considerably outweigh the significant profits i made first time around on this one, so i do regret reinvesting after the gore and bt news.but it was all very different then.

horse gob,very sorry to her about your wife.im sure you could do without the news here.hope things improve.

i agree strangler.it will be interesting to see what N&G do .current average about 1.48p.i assume they have been intimately involved in these proposals and see a positive outcome,but perhaps not.

apologies londondan.i felt i might be included in that as i have been a fairly positive poster on here for quite some time.glad to know i wasn't.

not in the slightest londondan.why should i or anyone else feel embarrassed.as for being humiliated,I've never subscribed to the slightly primitive school of thought that seeks to equate the validation of ones investment opinions with ones sense of self worth.

agreed arturo.very positive sign.

absolute drivel booth.

another astonishingly asinine post by booth about the warrants.

wait for booths posts now about electric shocks! anyway on a serious note just seen the rns.yes good news.i have done well on a few positions where lombard have been involved(proactis being the last one)doesn't mean they always get it right but their involvement in dec 2019 was one of the reasons i invested.
