The word "Short" is what you are all about Bally, Only 1.55% fall today, just look at the wider market, there are better shorts out there.

Time is short now, I was kind enough to share my wisdom, reach for the door or lose your shirt. You have been warned, bear feast imminent !

Sky is about to get killed, it's share price is over valued, it's Saudi Arabian royal family shareholders are going to get their investment ripped as its enemies start to come home to roost. If you don't want to lose your shirt then reach for the door, open the door and bail out of the door. Shareholders have had a great three years but every party has to end. Bank your profits now or wait 10 years to get your value back. You have been warned, bears are coming to feast.

Reach for the door, open the door bail out of door. The pink gun is right sky is a strong sell.

The person who suggested a strong sell gave no reasons...........I bet he wont either simply because he does not have a case with one of the most successful and best run businesses in the UK.

Likely either bid from Fox or sale of Fox stake prompting a bid.
Extremely likely given all recent reports
My price target £13 to £15 / share depending on bidder


See below - just one recent report but there have been many more


Traders switched on to talk that Rupert Murdoch’s 21st Century Fox is rekindling its interest in taking control of satellite broadcaster Sky.
Rumours resurfaced in dealing rooms that Fox, which owns 39 per cent of Sky, is hankering after buying the rest of the company, which paid £6.9billion last year to snap up its sister businesses in Germany and Italy.
But Fox may face opposition from US broadcaster Time Warner, which also is said to be running the rule over Sky. Investment bankers are understood to be working on a potential transaction. A market source said: ‘This could be the next big deal in the UK.’


Renewed interest: 21st Century Fox owner Rupert Murdoch backed off from a bid to take over Sky UK in 2011 following the phone-hacking scandal in Britain, but he is now rumoured to keen to take control once again
Murdoch backed off from a bid to take over Sky UK in 2011 following the phone-hacking scandal in Britain, which led to the closure of his Sunday tabloid, the News of the World.
Fox chief executive James Murdoch told the Hollywood Reporter in October that the integration of the Sky businesses in Europe was going well.
The Reporter quoted him as saying: ‘We’ve also been clear that over time, having 40 per cent of an unconsolidated asset is not an end state that is natural for us.’
Despite the chatter, Sky shares fell 20p to 1056p as the FTSE 100 Index crashed 135.27 points to a 10-week low of 5952.78.



Warning for all shorters

STRONG SELL


TARGET £8.91P

I wonder how many disgruntled TALK TALK subscribers are finding their way to SKY?

[anley2] 21/10/2015 10:46

and today's results are out and the share price is over £11 and heading to the £12 level which some of us forecast some months ago.

Look at the subscriber numbers from Germany and Austria and even the UK and how the cash flow will be used for investment and pay down of debt.........you just can't touch this management.

[anley2] 15/10/2015 16:58

Sky has just reedemed US$750m of notes with no more to be repaid until 2017.

Now there's a hint about cash flow before the results due out soon..............

[anley2] 08/10/2015 11:22

Stand by for results towards the end of this month............

Flip side of that is they can't afford Sky subs anymore.

[anley2] 24/9/2015 11:17

With VW workers being layed off will they all be sitting at home watching German Sky????

It could happen..............

[boix] 19/9/2015 15:48

Unlikely only rose during final 45mins of the day.

[anley2] 19/9/2015 11:18

Brokers report pushed the shares back up today..........

[boix] 15/9/2015 21:10

Why poor performance today?

[anley2] 10/9/2015 10:12

The price seems to be holding up well and no doubt the company just gets on with its job..........

[boix] 27/8/2015 16:38

Large volume and strong buying in closing auction.Makes a pleasant change.

[boix] 26/8/2015 14:23

Expected more strength today.Especially since the market makes a Fox or Vivendi takeover much more likely now sooner rather than later.
