AE yep just today, you are right the rest don't seem to be doing well either.

swsmith20, since when do you mean? If just today then take a look at the rest of the market. If since last month, then rights issue

[swsmith20] 16/5/2014 15:33

whats happened to the share price

Those not taking their rights will soon get a cheque for their Rights Allocation x £4.10 - not bad for doing nought!

A quick return back up to £14 now looks on the cards.

Anyone not taken up their allocation?

1206 based on the listing doc price.
This is my first experience of a rights issue. If I have a nominee account will I get a PAL document in electronic form and how will I be able to take up part of my rights? Waded through the documentation and implies I'm a Crest holder but can't see having got anything through on the 16th April as outlined. Presume I have til 6th May?

expected drop was to 1209 from memory

[watson] 17/4/2014 09:26

I guess that today's fall is due to the admission of nil-paid rights?

My mental arithmetic is insufficient to calculate whether this is the extent of fall we'd expect.

I will bow to your greater knowledge Peakedge ;-)

Not really, AB.

It is quite possible the journalist lives in London, though probably not in the City. London and the City and not one and the same.

You'll note that the quote in Dave Whitby's post uses a capital letter for the City: this is a way of differentiating it from London in a more general sense.

English definition of "the City."

Cambridge online dictionary: "the business and financial centre of London, including Britain's main financial organizations such the Bank of England and the International Stock Exchange"

Chambers Concise dictionary: "the centre of British financial affairs, most banks, etc."

Is 'inside the city' a fancy way of saying 'I live in London?!'

[broadwood] 01/4/2014 08:26

ON fire! Another contract win.

[broadwood] 31/3/2014 12:06

Is the rise going to hold? - with the rights issue in the background.

[broadwood] 31/3/2014 12:04

WOW!!

The market sure likes that de-commissioning contract.

[tradermel] 28/3/2014 10:53

Nothing better than a well placed stop loss :-)
