Stabilisation or "greenshoe" is when an issue comes to market and the underwriters will sell more shares than are being issued .
The idea is that when the Stock starts trading the underwriters can buy their "short" back and thus hold the Stock around its issue price for a few days.
Makes the underwriters look good in their clients eyes .
There are always "stags" who want out as soon as trading starts and the underwriters can buy that stock to close their short again and hold the price steady

Can anyone tell me who buys into these IPOs at such high valuations ? Who actually funds the initial IPo

[countless] 11/10/2018 19:19

Can anyone please tell me what stabilisation transactions are? Who pays for them and how do they occur. I never knew they even existed! So much for a free market.....

One born every minute, the poor mugs that invested their hard earned into this pile of sxxt at a vastly inflated price just as the UK car market heads south and everywhere else teeters on recession, great timing. Worth a couple of quid a share, parts bin unreliable cars and a company built on debt, bankrupt seven times so far in its history, thats about every thirtenn years it goes bust haha.

Where would this be without the stabilisation transactions ?
Thank goodness I never went for these.

Share float matches their current range of cars ... high expectation followed by disappointing reality.

Q

[wish i wasnt in rbs] 11/10/2018 11:07

Did anyone put money in to this? I only look at this price to cheer myself up.

[ignoble] 10/10/2018 21:30

All the Fund Managers who piled into
the flotation don't look too clever.

We trust these people to manage our
Pension Funds....

Hey Ho ....the usual answer is usually that we invest for the long term.
In other words, if it goes wrong short term , not to worry , all will be well in 30 years time.
Lol
Totally beyond me how anyone sees Aston as a good investment but hopefully I am wrong.
Maybe long term ...
No offence to Fund Managers. ..just a bit of banter.

255623 sold at 1598 then 16028 at 1588 after hours

not an easy time for UK car makers

Another UK dodgy float heading South, bet the backers glad to unload this debt fueled POS on the public and funds and get clear, two quid by this time next year.

[pawsche] 05/10/2018 17:05

If AML follows the same pattern as Ferrari it'll probably be worth buying in at about 12 - 13 quid... And then keeping your fingers crossed!

Wish I could afford one but won’t be investing

[ignoble] 04/10/2018 12:49

At least Aston don't make a diesel

[spob] 04/10/2018 11:54

New car sales down 20% on the year

I know this is a completely different category

but still not good

brexit fears having an affect on consumer behaviour and the overall economy

[imperial3] 04/10/2018 11:38

Still considerably over valued imo,sell.

[cashandcard] 04/10/2018 11:32

Leaving the cars aside (overvalued), does anyone see any value in the Aston Martin luxury brand and premium state of the art property developments etc...?


Cash

That's not Rowan Atkinson again, is it.

With his money he can afford a few prangs.

[spob] 04/10/2018 11:19

maybe these fund managers have been incentivised to participate

are they allowed to recive gifts such as free cars ?
