We are just about to start the 2nd one in Bristol, then on to Gloucester, then I think the Big one in Fulham ( largest to date)

Has this been tipped somewhere or something? Not that I'm complaining!

Now up 5%, £4.02 on the offer, VERRRY INTERESTING ....

[tuning peg] 28/4/2006 12:07

Up 2% to an all time high of 389 (so far today). I sense something is up.

Let's not forget the directors have been making sizeable share purchases in March and April. Perhaps the mooted takeover from a US group is on the cards? I would guess trading is pretty good at the moment with the pick up in the housing market particulary in the South East where BYG has its biggest presence.

Anyone else any ideas why we're getting close to £4?

Plus another million - I like directors that show faith in their company

Everybody ignoring the very large director buy here this week?

"• David Ross, a non-executive director at self-storage firm Big Yellow, has increased his stake for the second time this year.

He spent £655,000 on 179,500 shares following a purchase of £116,200 worth in January. He now holds six million shares in the group, which recently announced a rise in turnover and a strong start to the new year. "

Willower:
The top part of the article below might help explain things. This article is from the LOK BB.

wan - 23 Mar'06 - 07:15 - 629 of 629

Briefly...Yesterday, as expected, the criteria for REIT's were watered down, and subsequently 'property' companies shares reacted positively with a 10 per cent-plus rally and that included BYG! LOK is/was off the radar screen because it is not listed as such, however, I still think that self-storage property/companies are a natural fit for REIT's, as can be seen by the ownership in the US. So will LOK blip on a few radar screens before or after conclusion of Kingston? Interestingly European Reits trade at a premium of around 25 per cent to net asset value. If we apply that to the 'January 05' property valuations of £33.6m (from memory 2 stores added since) add in the combined Kingston and Reading effect at circa £13m? then we arrive at 219p, interestingly Bridgewell recently raised Lok'n Store's fair value by 19% to 215p, whilst reaffirming its overweight rating. Even if we take the January 2005 valuation as being up to date, add no premium but add in just the Kingston effect at circa £8m, then we can arrive £1.66, it then implies the self-storage side is currently valued at just £2.5M, which appears cheap.

Any comments as to why BYG has jumped over 5%?

[willower] 03/2/2006 22:02

I was referring more to the huge volume in shares ie over 3m

[spark240] 03/2/2006 20:36

They have a big projected program including more stores in the North.

[willower] 03/2/2006 15:50

Does anybody else wonder what is happening here

[johnv] 26/1/2006 15:59

Geoffg, rather not say where in case my subscription is cancelled.

[geoffg] 26/1/2006 11:41

[johnv] 26/1/2006 09:48

[jimboy99] 25/1/2006 12:20

[jimboy99] 25/1/2006 12:17

[spark240] 17/11/2005 18:54

Got in at 1.30 ;-0)

[slinky lady] 17/11/2005 16:12

Nope but I bought mine at 1.77 so I'm very happy thanks very much :-)

[spark240] 17/11/2005 11:02

Told you, anyone fill up before the hike ?

[handycam] 09/11/2005 18:26

Somebody has to pay for that expansion.

They have it all to do in ten days' time [to maintain their rating].

[spark240] 10/10/2005 17:38

Big program for next year, should be good for share price.

[slinky lady] 10/8/2005 09:51

Any idea why these are on the move this morning? Not that I'm complaining :-)

[spark240] 25/7/2005 13:42

Something kicked these into touch ?
