Until results come this stock will continue to chop and change. But the share buyback is definitely a positive. Will most likely put Ennismore under a bit of pressure. Maybe they will get another blogger to post a report. Would be hilarious if they tried that again after making it blatantly obvious that the report was an attempt to fuel short positions. My view is that the share price will most likely be stagnant until earnings are out.

One positive out of this is the preference I would have towards share buy back as opposed to dividends. Thats got my vote.

I Don't short stocks (too Casino for me and hard on the blood pressure) but nevertheless would think they are potentially in a pretty exposed position right now after admittedly having a window which they did capitalize on.
Would buy more but in the hole after a recent buy @62p and used up my dry powder.
Think we are in for a continued aggravated ride until results.
Just going to hold and grimace.

I agree, earnings will definitely be interesting. Ever since they started making a profit in 2019 earnings have grown substantial so will be interesting to see if this trend continues. in 2020 BATM were sitting on 50 million cash in hand. Will be interesting to see if they put that money to good use. Earnings will be the focus point for BATM investors. With all the misleading information going around about this stock strong earnings could definitely result in a sharp bounceback.

Oops hasn't..

I know the share buyback has been approved yet, but the buy trading patterns looks that way, or someone's building a stake, sorry no smell of a rat here!!

I think the ftse indice saga was the trigger for the shorters to try and make some money, so the sooner we vote on the Shareback Programme the better. I must admit I don't think I have ever seen a shorting crew in action before, if that was what it was. We certainly saw a few new contributors here who were behaving like good cop/bad cop. Hope no-one sold out in the process. Keen to see the End Year Results more than ever now. Still can't work out why Ennismore would short BVC as their strategy is to invest in small/medium UNDER-VALUED companies! Doh.

Novice investors ought not to be investing in stocks such as Batm. They naturally come with a health warning. They only invest in the hope of a fast buck. If you can't take the pain learn how to put stops in.

misinformation..you are welcome.

That's not nice! Saying I offer nothing!

This may be to complex to wrap you pea-brain around but it is possible to have multiple accounts, for example when you get a new email. Instead of trying to belittle people why don't you get your facts straight. Everyone here seems to be smart enough to clock that the report is a hoax designed to attractive incompetent investors to act accordingly. Look at the fundamentals, their balance sheet is strong ($12.26 million profit after tax, up from $4.3 million the year before). They are one of the few tech companies that are truly diversified (BATM’s portfolio includes a mix of established and novel technologies, and targets a range of sub-segments, customer types and geographical markets). Not to mention they have reinstated dividends. Why would a struggling company reinstate dividends, surely they would need to keep the money if they were struggling so much? All I've read from your posts is waffle. If you are so confident BATM is a prime shorting stock then please humour me your reasoning.

'Used to read the chat for alternative opinions ..'In the two days you've had an account..that adds up !

Yea-dire when Roland Rat is hailed the next Sage of Omaha by a very dubious poster.

This chat has become a bit of a laughing stock. Used to read the chat for alternative opinions but now people just sprout rubbish about the stock. Even though it is doing very well with strong earnings of $12.26 million profit after tax up from $4.3 million the year before. Some of these blogs have made me questioned poeples' intentions here. Anyone that read the shorter report from Ennismore and cross references it with accurate sources would have instantly clocked that it was a shorter attempting to entice novice investors to follow suit. Yes it could gain traction but as always when the 'hype' dies down those that followed the hype will be the worst off. BATM isn't going anywhere.

Nice one.

I went to one of the corners of the flat earth society last summer in Newfoundland. I took a picture at the top of the hill and am willing to post it for anyone saying it is not so. Flat as far as the eye could see.

Once again, chill. Some years there’s a pre-results trading update, some years there isn’t. In years where there is one, sometimes it’s released by now and sometimes it isn’t.

[kooba] 07/2/2022 17:59

Yep there are some serious allegations in there and i have seen these things end up in the main media if they are not challenged and knocked on the head.Staying quiet and hoping things go away i have never thought a grown up strategy. The blog may not have much direct reach but it is being shared on shorting communities on twitter maybe someone with more clout joins the party if they think the company cant answer. These things can fester I’ve found.It’s my opinion , i thought that was the point of these boards..not saying that is correct but it is an opinion i have and don’t think attacking someone for saying the company should put the record straight is normal.

[nellyb] 07/2/2022 17:52

honest question - so you are an ex-city employee and would like or expect batm to initate a public rebuttal to ratty the rat's allegations? have i got that right?

[kooba] 07/2/2022 17:38

It is the mobile number as of very recently.
I don’t care whether you believe me or not really wizz…enough playing stupid games.
You tell me the last four digits and i will tell you you are wrong as i know i am right ..maybe you have the landline last four..2527.
