Card Factory shares are being attacked by shorters including Marshall Wace and Worldquant. I suggest we do what Reddit users did a couple of years ago fit Gamestop and circulate this information in social media. If enough small investors and Card shop workers buy just a few shares we can beat the b*stards and the share price should be at a fair value. Every decent valuer (brokers etc) calculate a fair price at between about £1.40 and £2. The company is also bound to pay a decent dividend. Please post this or similar on social media. Thanks.

And I expect more since then - that increase is from a couple of days ago. Unfortunately it seems to make them lots of money. We need to be patient - this will strengthen.

I'm afraid we need patience. While the crooks are shorting this share continually it won't rise until it either pays a special Div on time of the expected Div or someone decides to acquire a bit holding for whatever reason. Meantime take the dividends and try to relax. Selling is obviously what the shorters want you to do! So don't!

Nope. Looks like the biggest culprits have gone skiing. Nice rise today. Hope it continues but it's either shorters buying or PIs listening to some influences or some active managers seeing value, or a mix! I've run out of cash!

Undoubtedly this is a factor. But if it was just that, the ftse250 etc would all be down similar amounts. And they're not. At some point this share will re-rate again but needs a few active managers or similar to take an interest. A special Div even if only a Penny or two would have a great impact imho. It has been mentioned in previous financial updates quite recently as a possibility.

I get the total shorts is running much much higher... Patience as we get closer to the next xd date... A decent dividend is the only way to punish these vultures.

Why? Are you selling 007? Haven't you said similar before? Just needs a bit buyer to jump in. It will happen.

If that doesn't show dodgy stuff just after a great update I don't know what does. Patience and don't sell cheap both needed!

Ooh, I hope the FCA is looking into it. Card would be a good example!

Beginning to think private direct investors are being picked off by the bots. It's like the professionals have a list of the companies being targeted and leave them alone.

Beachbum... Shame. Of course if everyone follows that narrative the UK equity market loses liquidity and becomes totally pointless. I agree it's close but this share will re-price upwards at some point. Good companies always do, eventually, whether by sp rise, takeover, or going private.

Share buybacks should make sense but seems to just play to the shorters and aggressors. A bigger dividend works better in our messed up market.

Lots of UK decent company share prices have roughly halved over last 5-8 years. One of the reasons it's hard to get investment in the UK and most of these companies are under-valued, including Card - share price was about £2 6 years ago and more than that earlier. I'm expecting a vidend of about 4p a share from Card. Hoping for 4.2p.

I'm guessing many are hiding under the disclosable limit, or working with an institutional holder, or even an institutional long holder messing around. But as we get closer to xd I hope things will improve. All a bit depressing when a company does well yet the share price doesn't reflect it.

Bermondsey, I wish you were right, and without hedge funds and shorters you probably would be. But any company that has been shorted to destruction will tell you otherwise... Calling this a conspiracy theory is naïve.

Yes, that pattern is getting wearisome. Someone will break it...

There's a bit of action this morning. Price just jumped up and back...

If Blundy doesn't buy more at this price and given the likely returns especially if some bigger investors take on the creeps who keep pegging this share back, life will be a bit rosier.

Hard to understand clean reasons for the sp tanking again. Nuts. Directors don't have a habit of buying and i guess UK market is totally out of favour.

Algo sells have returned. Has to be manipulation. Simply no other reason. Hopefully somebody will start buying soon...
