The price was immediately marked down to 20-21 this morning. I tried to buy a measly 5000 shares and they were offered to me at a shade over 22 pence. What's the point in marking it down by such a magnitude and then not offering any shares.
When the BBC start reporting the bubble is usually about to burst. Happened with the dotcoms, miners, bitcoin. They're the perfect contrarian indicator.
I'm pleased that BM and LA were not awarded options which are essentially entirely risk free. Their significant shareholders are seen as sufficient incentivisation.
Must admit i didn't even see the rns until i logged on here this afternoon. They could have announced at 7am this morning and got more traction rather than announcing after the market has closed.
in the last two years, they have been announced on 30 nov and 21 dec - so we are certainly in the timeframe. They always include a very thorough chairman's statement.
