I think a few ppl in the know may have been privy to the 1,255,200 sale @ end of day auction.
May plummet in the morning? hope not.

Any money invested in AIM listed companies falls outside of your estate for inheritance tax purposes after two years. Maybe this has something to do with the price fall. As one of the larger / safer companies on AIM, Mears may have been a popular choice for someone of high net worth.

Its only gone down since the announcement of main listing.
Im wondering if city thinks Mears is gonna ask for additional funds or is it the fact that the move up will just cost more? hmmm.

Don't understand this drop at all,no bad news about as far as I know

[whizzy1] 27/5/2008 10:52

[5dally] 22/5/2008 14:51

Don't see why not Geovest:-)

Transferring to the main market normally results in an uplift in the share price. Main listing should be very positive for MER in terms of profile and valuation. Give it a year or two and it should be in the FTSE250.

One of the few ports in a storm at present announces excellent proposed move today;

Mears today announces that it intends to apply for admission of its ordinary share capital to the Official List of the UK Listing Authority and to trading on the London Stock Exchange's market for listed securities.
The Directors believe that the listing on AIM has provided a means of access to the equity financing required to achieve strong, consistent growth in turnover and profit.
It is expected that the Company's ordinary shares with a nominal value of 1p each will be admitted to the Official List of the UK Listing Authority and to trading on the London Stock Exchange's market for listed securities and simultaneously cancelled on AIM effective at 8.00 a.m. on Monday 23 June 2008, subject to the receipt of the necessary approvals from the UK Listing Authority.

I will go with that one.

Gordon Brown's policy on social housing & care for the elderly will keep this one heading north. Long may the climb continue.

[5dally] 15/5/2008 14:49

and up again today:-)

[whizzy1] 12/5/2008 21:48

And again today.

[whizzy1] 08/5/2008 15:27

Climbing nicely over the weeks.

[5dally] 01/5/2008 15:42

This seems to be doing well recently:-)

Yes, it was radio5 live about one year ago and turned out to be 2 ex employees with a bit of a grudge by the sound if it. Shares fell to about 235p but were here now. Also, good write up in last week's IC full page buy tip.

[polopolo2] 26/4/2008 18:24

I don't believe it was Panorama, pretty sure it was on radio 5 live. Whatever it was resulted in a severe impact on the share price so great to see it heading back towards the peak of 340 or so.

Would not surprise me if it went over 400 by year end.

[whizzy1] 26/4/2008 14:28

I saw the news threads at the time, had no idea it had been on the box though. Ta.

[polopolo2] 25/4/2008 18:06

Allegations were made against Mears several months ago - all with no substance as was fully proved in the investigation

[whizzy1] 25/4/2008 16:57

Panorama? As in T.V ? WTF?

[cambium] 25/4/2008 14:26

I know cheers

[hsbcpremier] 25/4/2008 14:16

[gjd] 25/4/2008 14:12

Share price depressed by sales before new CGT rules + aftermath of Panorama tailing off?
Anyone buying at this price?

[cambium] 25/4/2008 14:07

[whizzy1] 25/4/2008 14:05
