Think about what impact the rise of driverless cars will have on the 'stable' cash flows of the breakdown, motor insurance and driving school businesses.

I selected it as a prime short but the market ,at this moment, seems to disagree.

Sits proudly blue on top of my "Red Sea Scrolls".

With 7 times EBITDA debt.....don't think so.

Balance sheet is horrendous - I'd be amazed if it can survive. CPI RNS this morning gives a hint as to what would happen to equity in a similar scenario.

Well over 30% now.Got stopped out for small punt.Will stay clear for now.Bear attack has not even started yet so will be driven down with so much debt.Markets are unforgiving and ruthless so sub 50p likely.

[hor_fra] 30/1/2018 18:33

Well, with that I agree! :-)

[bookbroker] 30/1/2018 18:07

Doesn’t matter, this is still a pile of 💩!

Dec 29th, closing price 169.70
Today's closing price 134.70

169.70 - X*169.70 = 134.70

X=0.2062

drop = 20.62%

Well to be honest he is not that far wrong 176p to 134p about 25%

[anony mous] 30/1/2018 16:52

Lol.It's a fact, do the maths.

[hor_fra] 30/1/2018 16:45

How exactly is it "Over 30% drop in just 1 month"? The share has had a terrible run, I agree, but why overstate things?

[anony mous] 30/1/2018 16:25

Over 30% drop in just 1 month

I beleive the 8.08 only includes the short positions above .05% of stock.
So most likely there is more.

[timothyjones2010] 29/1/2018 19:25

8.08% thats disclosed shorts. There may be more, suspect there is. I suspect there's more traction down for the share price over the week. Thanks have a feeling there's some bad news coming out soon

Would like that cleared up too anony.
Recon bletchly park will need to be reinstated first.

Lots of rns regards holdings, nearly everyday.Anyone decoded them.

[minerve] 18/1/2018 12:21

Barclay's note, generally negative short-term, positive long-term. Dividend concerns, investment in business needed etc.. Usual thing. TP £2!

Well, their critique has just made that TP a little more difficult.


LOL

[farmsted] 18/1/2018 10:54

Must be someone short selling the share as no news is out that we know off.

[rathean] 18/1/2018 10:36

So any idea why the drop today?

[tsmith2] 12/10/2017 08:28

another leg down, feels that way. £1.30p - nothing on charts, unchartered territory.

[luckymouse] 09/10/2017 12:39

I note some equity swaps in the news - dont know much about them except swaps usually swap fwd cash flows between a fixed & a floating rate - cld be some insts hedging the fwd div perhaps
