back to 160p within a fortnight.

[manics] 30/3/2021 07:10

Decision time for BARC imo.

This might help.
The Shard is only 309.6m high, so the ship is almost another 100m longer than the height of The Shard !

That ship in Suez Canal is carrying 18300 containers...mind boggling figure...wonder how long it takes to load and unload...and it is 400 metres long...that is size of athletics stadium track...

[diku] 29/3/2021 21:50

If last Friday Dow 450 points up wasn't enough so pump another 100 points today...and as usual FTSE dangling negative in no mans land...

I wonder what JPM's fee is for the buyback?

[diku] 29/3/2021 18:38

This buy backs is really guns blazing...15mln shares every day since start...does that mean more are turning sellers keeping Morgan occupied...taking up the slack...

Will there be a pullback once the buyback completes?

reidy66: probably. Nuts valuation though, which has doubled since the round prior to IPO.

[smurfy2001] 29/3/2021 12:35

Approx £168m spent on buyback.

[reidy66] 29/3/2021 12:10

Anyone going to have a play with deliveroo on weds ??

[jordaggy] 29/3/2021 11:25

Loan and mortgage lending beat forecasts...good for banks.

PRBSHARES: make no mistake HSS is a company in trouble and with lots of debt, but that's why it was recently 10p. You're playing a recovery. diku and I had a good ride 12p-16p-ish. It just reminded me of Thomas Cook a bit 10 years or so ago -where it has the brand, market penetration and scale, just needs to do a better job of monetising it.

BARC -still looking for that 187.XX UT to get excited on ahead of 193.80. We all knew weeks ago this area was going to be hard work and so it is proving to be, but that's OK imo.

The buyback continues ...

Date of purchase: 26 March 2021
Number of ordinary shares purchased: 15,589,400
Highest price paid per share: 184.9000p
Lowest price paid per share: 182.9400p
Volume weighted average price paid
per share: 183.9197p

Manics : thats a great looking chart for HSS. I'm not involved in it but pleased others seem to be earning some ££ there.

Barc seems to be bumping around the 180-184 level as the buy back continues ... whats your thoughts ?

[manics] 29/3/2021 09:41

diku: indicative of the crazy leverage that's out in the market imo.

HSS chart looking nice though I've no intention to re-enter.

Remember when the Lefty media-BBC was gushing about how well Germany was handling the virus, now they are one of the worst in Europe with over 100k cases a day. 40% french refusing vaccines because they don't trust their government!

[manics] 29/3/2021 09:06

Will 178p be tested once again?
