Burford Capital Share Discussion Threads

LFEIF down to 4.96% on 22 October.



Perhaps the announcement that a consortium is in talks to buy £500m of Woodford shares will reduce the speed at which Link have to sell the rest of the BUR shares in LFEIF

yup that's a mega buy looking good GLA ..

[mad foetus] 05/11/2019 09:59

Someone just bought £6m at 910

[stoxx67] 05/11/2019 09:54

should be a great deal higher than this.

i suppose the catalyst for a substantial move north, back to £15 at least, is the , potential, US listing in Q1 2020.

i'll be happy when we are back at levels prior to the criminal acts of Muddy Waters, one suspects, and hopes, 2020 will be a terrible Year for MW and those in the UK that collaborated.

will be most interesting to see it all play out.

back through a tenner soon IMO, shorters will be feeling it back at these levels...DYOR

[mad foetus] 05/11/2019 08:31

Chart wise £9 looks key so I expect some resistance there and for any experienced shooters to close a little above that (9.15-9.25). That's the muddy stretch to get through

[stentorian] 05/11/2019 08:27

4.17cents record date is 15th of this month.

[dgdg1] 05/11/2019 08:21

Yes and any shorters left out there - I say this to help you as I genuinely feel sorry for you that you may end up with huge losses - do yourselves a favour - even if you think the shorting argument has something going for it and you respect MW or TW or whatever - just consider that there are plenty of brokers and investors who are very bullish so just consider that maybe you are wrong. I'm not telling you to go long against your convictions but at least close your shorts as you must admit there is the risk of a massive loss. Just my friendly advice, please don't ignore it for your own sakes. Best of luck to all.

[mad foetus] 05/11/2019 08:16

£9, wonder at what point any remaining shooters throw in the towel. The bull case seems intact and there is lots of blue sky to move into

[scubadiverr] 05/11/2019 08:05

In short I don't know. However surely it could only be a hedge against a bet predicting an increase in the share price 5% is a significant chunk and would have thought only iis would have access to that kind of capital and would be able to go long without using the CFD route. Interested in others thoughts?

[syoun11] 05/11/2019 07:28

Hi, anyone know what to read into yesterday’s Tr1 which states over 5% in a CFD. I understand they don’t own any shares but not sure if we know they are betting on a upward or downward movement. Is it possible the broker is holding shares to hedge against the CFD?

[ozzmosiz] 04/11/2019 21:23

RNS.... Coltrane Master Fund has 5.22%

[davr0s] 04/11/2019 17:56

They are highly illiquid which is why I wouldn't dream of buying them given recent history (I have held a lot in the past)

[dekle] 04/11/2019 17:52

The bonds were very difficult to buy. Couldn't seem to get any quantity within the spread or even on the top. I'm in profit with them but only just because I bought them on the way down.

[roddyb] 04/11/2019 15:51

For me - the action was in the Bonds. £70-75 purchases are nearly up to par in two months and the running yield is about 11% - Muddy Waters did me a huge favour.

[gettingrichslow] 04/11/2019 13:43

mad, I think it’s fairly clear that poor old George Stobbart doesn’t have a clue what’s going on with anything, so let’s not beat him up!

[mad foetus] 04/11/2019 11:32

That's funny. So when share price was £7 one broker say it will go down, lots say it will rise, it goes up 25% and you say the only broker to trust is the one who's got it wrong. Lols!

[george stobbart] 04/11/2019 11:28

I know, but I only trust Canaccord.

[scubadiverr] 04/11/2019 11:23

That was back on 29 August and share price risen since then. More recently Liberum have guided £26 and peel hunt £11.60. both showing tremendous upside

[devalpha] 01/11/2019 21:59

Bogart & Molot working diligently in the background, while Block fumbles from tweet to tweet.Sentiment slowing changing as rationality gradually outweighs fear.In the short term the markets a voting machine, but in the long term it's a weighing machine.Good luck to all long term holders and anyone with a genuine interest. Block's picked a fight with the wrong crew here.

[scubadiverr] 01/11/2019 18:09

Does Adnan still visit this board? Always enjoyed his insightful and well researched posts and would like to see more of the same.

[donald pond] 01/11/2019 16:53

And another big one, so looks like over £2m changed hands at days highs.

[mad foetus] 01/11/2019 16:38

Nice £800k uncrossing trade to end the week. Looking very good for continued gradual rises, 50p a week for the rest of the year will do nicely

[winsome] 01/11/2019 13:52

Tell me the most wonderful company you can think of (apart from BUR) and I could easily write a semi-convincing or certainly sensationalist bear report on it. Such an easy thing to do, if I had the time.
