Morning all. Missed the morning excitement.

Someone did a lot of large trades at 16:29:59 yesterday (Tue 05/11/2002)

AZN 4,820,211 @2210.0 ( 2257.0 - 2260.0 )
BP. 60,750,643 @399.0 ( 404.0 - 404.5 )
DGE 9,191,898 @735.0 ( 749.5 - 751.0 )
GSK 18,111,171 @1203.0 ( 1229.0 - 1230.0 )
SHEL 27,543,805 @411.0 ( 417.0 - 417.75 )
VOD 219,192,618 @103.75 ( 106.5 - 106.75 )

That's about one billion pounds of 'P (protected portfolio Trade' trades
+ more ... !

Opinions on why and how it may influence your view of the market and the
individual stocks?

Does anyone have any detailed explanation of 'protected porfolio trades' ?

From a lurker - I am short NTG from about 4.80. If you are going to
short it plse leave your shorts open - it goes down happily on its
own - but if you all close the mm's might mark it up !.

ISYS - there was some strong buying yesterday that looked institutional, pushed price from an intraday low of 64.5 to 70 at close. Yet at the close there were some v large (£5 - 10m) sales well below bid. 2 largish buys 1st thing (900k and 300k) at up to 70. Suggested to me a pump and dump. 70p is resistance but there are still buyers at 70.

Rich thanks

[martin h] 06/11/2002 08:46

rich have you ever thought of trading VOD, much smaller trading range than the banks and IMO more easy to guess
