For a FTSE Company to lose nearly 30% in a few Weeks with no profit warning or major change of beneficial owners except to say that profits came in slightly higher and figs for the Year should be inline just doesn't sit right.
It is almost guaranteed that any stock that makes some good gains will get slapped down again for a multitude do Bolox reasons and so it goes on - the Doomloop!

As a telco infrastructure it should be milking from those big US techs...the amount of online traffic going through the network...would Apple products work without telco infrastructure?...

NMC was some classic of buy side Satan's

[institutional investments] 06/2/2024 23:07

I would actually argue, shorters have more morals

Short side try expose a truth, and buy side dont want it unearthed

Insurers play a big financing part

[institutional investments] 06/2/2024 23:01

Buy side funds probably finance 80% or more of the hedgie operations

Just a 3rd party took for clients

I know it won't happen. But it should

Any critical infrastructure should be

Nationalise BT? Really - after 40 years! lol they ain't gonna happen. Nationalise Vodafone and Diageo as well then! lol

Ultimately you have to remember who funds the hedges

Buy side funds

Where do they get burnt in the UK? They have complete control, even when good figures come out they still go down.

[institutional investments] 06/2/2024 22:55

BT is a heavy target. Industry isn't

Globally, other high yielders out there, similar financials by ratio if not numbers

Not getting targeted for dividend threat

I think it's something else

Dunno what obviously

[institutional investments] 06/2/2024 22:52

I don't blame aggressive shorting

Because they get burnt when wrong, same as buyers

They tend to at least make you look deeper if nothing else

[institutional investments] 06/2/2024 22:51

Needs to be nationalised. This is a gov project really

[isis] 06/2/2024 22:50

As many observers have said we appear to be in a Doom Loop never being able to breakout before the shorting starts again. The only way to get any value is a takeover but that is difficult for reasons we all know.
Government have not helped at all, massive fines all the time and retro suits for allsorts of reasons that weren't questioned at the time. Our Companies are being used as cash machines.
We'll just have to see how it pans out but it has been aggressive shorting that has brought this down imo

Don't know if it's about dividend re targeted here

You reckon that's what it is ?

[essentialinvestor] 06/2/2024 22:48

Around mid May until FY results and whether the dividend gets cut.

[institutional investments] 06/2/2024 22:46

Don't get me wrong. Maybe you did ok and a few others


But if you don't generally time a market /markets, you get screwed over

If not by capital, by inflation etc etc

[institutional investments] 06/2/2024 22:42

A lot more human behind it than you think

Includes telling Algos what to do
