Waiting for a reply from Avon we may get a release statement |
Agreed that was mechanical. The company need to make a statement |
I'm not sure that's right as it was effectively announced in 2020 so it was a purely mechanical announcement of a release of previously announced shares. i.e. I'm not sure that it would have been stopped if they had material new information. |
I reckon that they did that - ie no material change here - with that RNS at 14.00hrs yesterday; if there was, they would have had to say something at that time. That was a nothing RNS, so no need to release intraday? |
Still nothing from the Co this morning. |
I didn't top up be added a few to ease my offside position, still offside. |
Statement from the company would be helpful saying they are no fundamental reasons for the price drop..! |
Prob someone caught up in crypto issues and needs zee cash.! Over sold!! |
Avon Protection was under the cosh on Tuesday after a share placing.
According to traders, JPMorgan placed 1.8m shares for an undisclosed institutional seller at between 1,061p and 1,100p.
At 1110 GMT, the shares were down 12% at 1,036p.
Avon specialises in the engineering and manufacturing of respiratory protection equipment for military, law enforcement and fire personnel. |
Hi Liam - thanks for the info and makes sense. Out of interest how did you find that out? Thx |
Just topped up . Cyber Monday prices |
Yes, nothing to do with the company. On a bit of support here chartwise, so a decent point to buy. |
Someone needs the cash it’s a tactical sale then not a fundamental sale |
It's a placing from an institutional seller: JPMorgan placed 1.8m shares for an undisclosed institutional seller at between 1,061p and 1,100p. |
It seems to be a tactical move I'll call Avon |
I checked on stockomendation and there are no new short positions opened or new broker recs/tips posted. Maybe it’s a holder caught in the crypto crisis needing the money? |
Asymmetrical access to information??? |
Who's done all the selling ? This stinks |
To drop suddenly like that is either a loss of a big contract or some kind of testing failure. |
Yes something up. It could be a tree shake to pick up shares on the cheap or really terrible newsI think the former |
Any ideas? |
Falling off a cliff. Somethings definitely leaked ? |
A mixed bag, as you'd expect half way through a restructuring but enough to put a floor under the current share price and advance on future good news. I'm about 4% of my pf here and will increase to 5% on weakness. |
Picked up 5000 more at a great price It will take a little time for people to fully digest the very positive news |
