But would you, in any capacity, wish to represent Mr Trump

"Will you be needing financing with that supreme court action, Mr Trump"?

Yeah I was sweating for a while. Confident now though. It's all looking good long term on this one

[hatfullofsky] 03/11/2020 22:36

That was 7month back ;-)

[bogman1] 03/11/2020 22:14

What happened to the dip? Was gonna add. Current average is 9.5 so have a bit to go..

[papy02] 03/11/2020 18:36

Can’t time them all :-(

[ozzmosiz] 03/11/2020 18:10

That was poor timing

Trying to trim my equity holdings today. Can’t sell even £3k of BUR. Left a limit order still no execution after a couple of hours. Worst of the 5 stocks I’ve trimmed. No liquidity at all. (Broker is EQI)

Edit: was a broker problem - dealer could execute no problem.

[time_traveller] 02/11/2020 14:08

My feeling is you could get it 3-5% cheaper, but yeah, you wouldn't go far wrong buying here.

[bogman1] 02/11/2020 13:29

Quiet on here... looks like a good day to buy this one..

I sold my NYSE stock (about 20 percent of my total Bur position) as the difference between AIM was too much - no problems with that trade Tired to buy back into the AIM listed original, but wasn't able to

[williamcooper104] 31/10/2020 08:20

understand being risk off at moment While Bur's business is If anything negatively correlated to the economic cycle unfortunately if wider markets tank 20 percent Bur will probably fall c20-30 I'm happy to hold; but I've 50 percent of my assets in cash/high grade low duration credit at moment - so not bothered about a bit of volatility - and if Bur trades again below NAV with a bit of Peterson adjustment I'll load up aggressively though everyone must make that judgement to hold/sell/buy more according to own position/needs

[kaos3] 30/10/2020 21:11

today I did the risk off trade and sold BUR - if it did not go up at listing - it might go down lol. specially elections day coming. migh loose few % but protecting much bigger loses

[time_traveller] 30/10/2020 20:22

Maybe, but the US trading looks very sticky. Anyone tried trading the NYSE stock?

[old fool2] 30/10/2020 19:55

Burford is positive in USA whether this will reflect in UK on Monday or not

[rar100] 30/10/2020 16:43

I think we are all disappointed by the pretty bad Covid news and Bur's US debut both coinciding, it's sods law about the timing, possibly better Covid news will cheer up BUR and the general markets and just maybe BUR will be known more outside of just the law circle, I live in hope...

[chucko1] 30/10/2020 15:43

GRS, don't be quite so harsh - it's actually more insightful than some posts I can think of.

[gettingrichslow] 30/10/2020 15:32

Yeah thanks for that Seymour, basically it might go up, but it might go down! Useful.

[ptolemy] 30/10/2020 14:26

I've updated my view of BURF.

[hatfullofsky] 29/10/2020 23:42

And then we can go for : this is a BUR thread not a COVID thread

[hatfullofsky] 29/10/2020 23:39

Then we can go for : nobody died from the flu

[hatfullofsky] 29/10/2020 23:38

So many inaccuracies : let's start with know v knew
