Well that would be kind of cute for Harbinger.
Lend stock to shorters who drive the price down, acquire stock at those lower levels and then ask for their stock back, squeezing aforementioned shorters.
Too good to be true!

Why don't Harbinger, Lansdowne, Lehmans (55% of the outstanding shares) recall their shares so they can't be lent out to shorters?

[phillis] 18/2/2008 09:52

An amazing 25% of this still on loan!
What a squeeze potential if this were to make the Footsie 100

Nice to see something in Blue in my portfolio this year for a change! It really hasn't followed the general market trends at all.Roll on .

It been a great ride but called it a day for the moment, we have been here before several times and the volatility makes it hard to stay with this one -

suspect this rise may be partly a response to worries about the number of recent sub-sea cable breaks.... makes satellite services look more attractive as an alternative

Timely reminder to take nothing for granted when a carefully considered top quality defensive large cap is seen 20% away from the recent high - isat not exactly the best advert for stop loss trading disciples!

kerrr - wish i had those powers ! they did a nice job buying back on the quiet

[shroder] 03/2/2008 22:47

I think you need to read between the lines on that one ;-) a very public announcement that they had reduced followed by a hefty purchase -

Nice corner Lehman!!!!

[kluk069] 02/2/2008 23:59

Things really must be bad if they have to ditch 20m quality shares to make a few bob via repurchasing 'em a fortnight later!!

[shroder] 01/2/2008 14:39

Lehman brother putting on the squeeeeezzzzzzzee, go on my beaut!!

[shroder] 31/1/2008 19:26

Well this has to be the quietest thread on the bb - glad to see it blue after the large moves recently

[shroder] 22/1/2008 13:04

I added a few yesterday but nothing to break the bank -

[steeplejack] 22/1/2008 09:19

I'm not adding at the moment simply cos it's had a good run and is vulnerable to top slicing in this market.....cowardly eh

[shroder] 21/1/2008 23:23

Is anyone following this one?

Interesting situation, added a few today -

[shroder] 17/1/2008 19:38

Loud and clear, over...

Does someone have an up to date list of the major holders please - its getting interesting with a whopping 20% out on loan
