The purchase is "Justin Thyme" for a mention in the weekend press.
I have quiclky glanced at the trades today looking for the big purchase that had caused the buys to be over one million but I only see continual hourly buys which I find reassuring at the moment we have buys 1061,000 sales 432, 000 - away for the day
a stake holding announcement would be nice
Yes that seemed to trigger the downturn and the latest drop to the 53's that wasn't in the script I wrote for the afternoon - but I expect a good recovery by 4-30
I have followed Mohamed El_Erian Queens College Cambridge President for years. "Longer end of Bonds - the ten year average 4.25 (volatile) - the excitement will be elsewhere in the curve."

By chance I noted this share has had 95 trades in 6 hours (less than 16 per hour) -- 27k of buys and 163k total sales in that time
I checked all my dealing with ticker McG and they are all XLON
However I know for a fact ticker MCGL does exist on AQSE but doesn't seem to be active ?
888 Holdings Plc Share Price (888.GB.PL) exists on AQSE and does about 4 trades a day ( I have seen 7 am trades when they open !!) often my limit buy or sell (placed as I watch the price ) ends up with them - their "official" spread is massive. by the way
For the record Flutter although a totally different "animal" announce their results on the same day.
Just to remind Smokeytime of his/her last two posts : or as your account been hacked ?
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Pretty clear a rights issue is on the cards here. Results date is secretly disclosed which is not right and seems to be more bad news on the way as otherwise they would want us and the market to know. Cosmens have been loading up as a few have pointed out to block a low ball offer from some foreign company for the US business as it is becoming clear that they are not going to achieve the price that they were after and that only means one thing.....rights issue as the profits generated currently will take too long to wipe the debt out.
I hope I'm wrong but the way the board are behaving the signs are all started to appear
-------------------------------------
Everyone keeps commenting how undervalued this share is but there's a possibility this company can get the recievers in and start selling parts of the company they need to wipe the debt and the rest will be handed to authorities owned by the government like the buses etc. The board are incompetent and I can't believe people are topping up with this downward trend. Insane!
You got more chance of making money down Cheltenham than this garbage unless your willing to hold for 10+ years.
-----------------------------------------------
When "Mary" goes +ve I worry
The share price today has behaved lliterally like a bouncing bomb. 4 times it has met resistance at yesterday's close (effectively the Cosmen buy level ?) .
Presumably the removal of some management will be reflected in the results.
Only 4 days to go to sanity returning ?
And as i type this the price drops again we have 66.50 66.90
Funny that RNS ...that's why I am active here
Let us not forget Cosmens "neighbours" AzValor Asset Management SGIIC SA " bought a 3% stake in the fourth quartile of last year

(Alliance News) - National Express Group PLC on Thursday reported a higher revenue for 2022 but its loss widened due to an impairment of goodwill charge for Madrid-based subsidiary ALSA.
The Birmingham-based public transport provider said annual revenue rose 29% year-on-year to GBP2.81 billion from GBP2.17 billion, though its pretax loss widened to GBP209.9 million from GBP84.9 million.
The company said the statutory loss was higher due to a GBP261 million non-cash impairment of goodwill in ALSA, a company operating long distance bus and coach services in Spain, Morocco, Portugal, Switzerland and France, bought by National Express in 2005.
Meanwhile, underlying pretax profit jumped to GBP145.9 million from GBP39.7 million.
"A relentless focus on operational leverage, cost discipline and successful pricing actions has underpinned a recovery in [underlying] profit and margin as well as in the return on capital employed," National Express said.
National Express reinstated dividends at 5.0p per share "reflecting confidence in the future".
Its expectations for 2023 are unchanged, and it has "clear and robust actions in place" to mitigate macroeconomic headwinds and cut costs.
National Express shares were 13% higher at 139.94 pence each in London on Thursday morning.
