As a retired vet, I well remember the days when young vets progressed up the ladder - if they so wished - to become a partner in the practice. That practice was owned by the vets; it could be anything from a one-person practice to a dozen or more - but they OWNED the practice and were free to charge whatever they wanted; however, this was dictated by market forces (i.e. neighbouring 'rival' practices). Everything was in balance, and the veterinary preofeesion was held in high regard.
When the corporates entered the market, everything changed. They became the 'dictators'. Profit became the be-all and end-all of everything. Over time, the public - who are not stupid - cottoned on to this. The result - the profession that I was once proud of is now being treated (quite rightly) as nothing more than a money-grabbing machine.
I don't expect this post to accumulate any 'likes'. After all, I am only a (retired) vet with 40+ years' experience on the front line, not an investor....
PurpleKenny: they may be recorded as sells, but most of them are buys. I'm being offered 9.94 to buy at 12.47. That's below the mid point of 9.97, so it will automatically be recorded as a sell.
There is an article on TW's websit headed 'Skinbiotherapeutics, is there a placing underway - response from Stuart Ashman'. I don't subscribe to TW's website, so I don't know more than that. Perhaps others here do...?
LOS ANGELES, Oct 19 (Reuters) - Oscar winner George Clooney and other top Hollywood stars have offered $150 million to the SAG-AFTRA actors union as part of a proposal to end the actors' strike as it nears its 100th day.
Their offer, confirmed by Clooney's spokesperson on Thursday, would provide the union an extra $150 million over three years and could help fund improved health benefits.
Clooney also said top stars would only collect residuals once lower-paid actors received theirs.
Sorry Jtrade1, but my profit was a whisker under 40%; buy at 326, sell at 457.45. Hardly a tiny profit! I still have enough in an ISA (at 332.98) to go on with, but I'm likely to be back in here after a reasonable retrace. As Knowbodyyouknow stated - 'everyone has their own strategy...'.
No. I tried and tried but without success. Was slighlty peeved when I saw some people had managed it (or, at least, close to it)...
Not interested in the others. I'm interested in SBTX, which is currently down 13%, and most of this is after ZM proclaimed his 'doubling' opinion...
"30.00 expect we may double from here may see alot of people coming in later today".
And then again, we may not.
Zak Mir is, in essence, a technical analyst; an analyst who gets things 'wrong' more often than he gets things 'right'. TA does not appear to 'work' in a stock such as SBTX. I could equally pluck any random number out of the air and state 'it may' reach this level.
A complete waste of space...
Here's a paragraph from an email I received from IG a few minutes ago:
"We are now awaiting delivery of the shares from our broker CITI & our corporate actions team has sent a chaser email to broker today."
Not the most efficient set-up...
Hi Zeon690, perhaps they should have by now - but I'm still waiting too... (I'm with IG). Have emailed them, but so far only had a 'holding' email in return.
Just for balance...
This was an article by HL specifically about three RETAIL shares (not any old shares), that were 'hoping to do well' this Christmas. And they were arranged alphabetically (ASOS, Currys & Sainsburys).
The 'cherry picking' of points for further dissemination can be quite misleading.
That was in Arabic - clearly LSE can't handle it!
20p ????? ????? ???????
Goldman Sachs reduced from 210 (buy) to 50 (neutral)....

It seems to me that these three director buys today are nothing more than token gestures (one is for 'just' £5,000). In my view, they are worse than no director buys at all. A director buy needs to be significant if it's to be taken seriously, especially after a 20%+ drop....
And finally... they've arrived - without any fanfare - in my IG account!
Not entirely sure about 'looping upwards'. From past experience, the appointment of a NOMAD and Joint Broker is often the precursor of fund raising by one means or another - and they do have significant debt...
I've had this on my watchlist for ages and was preparing to dip a toe in, but I now intend to wait and see for a little bit longer.
Looks like she got them for nowt! (If my understanding of what an 'exercise price' is).
"...she is exercising options (the "Options") over 972,727 ordinary shares of £0.01 each ("Ordinary Shares") with an exercise price of nil pence."
Roughly £4M worth....
The £2M is an Uncrossing Trade! How many times do people have to be told what UT means....
