Potential 2025 takeover targets - ITV (obviously!)
“UK equities are at a pivotal moment that presents what could be a once in a generation opportunity, according to investment research company Edison Group.” - ok take my money! |
Utter rubbish on ITV both yesterday and today…… |
The bbc (no fan of it either) has absolutely trounced this epic fail of a company on Xmas day ratings. Talk about reverse gear! |
And sadder still that you've got nothing better to do on boxing day sticking up for another one of your many user names.

..so its even sadder that you spend time on xmas day trolling him whilst normal folk are out having a good time? |
Let's face it guys, Matthew after having claimed to have had a slap up lunch with his "fellow investor mates" spends Xmas eve night crying about being picked on by bb names such as Royston and jonnybig when normal folk are out having a laugh and a drink. It's obvious he's a sandwich short of a picnic 🤪

royston, MatthewR is a big headed know all who likes to think he is some kind of Cityboy...
Use your filter button. Claims everyone else has aliases and then uses his many accounts to uptick his own dire posts that have no place on this thread. I must check who else has posted today, because MattR will be out accusing me of having created aliases in order to post about him.
This bloke has a huge ego, pity about the tiny brain! |
You really are full of the joys of Christmas today |
No Jonnybig , as several sensible posters have called you out on , a buyback enables you to raise the dividend when the shares are cancelled. They haven’t cancelled most of them yet. Good luck getting the brain cell you asked for at Xmas. |
Thanks Royston. That was a balanced post , as opposed to your previous one where you sounded like a total utter bellend. |
Looks like jonnybig has another handle. Royston. Sad
MatthewR, I'm sad you child! I am the alias of no other person, I have visited and posted on these threads for years and your weird post made me laugh, who quotes hedge fund managers unless they crave attention. I commented and your response is to have a hissy fit and make childish accusations.
I care not if you are an ex trader, ex banker, ex hedge fund guy or that you are likely just another investor who lives in your own little world.
No green eyed envy as my motto is 'live and let live' so you have a nice Xmas and I hope your long in ITV pays up as I do for all the long suffering ITV holders. |
And remember guys, Matthew couldn't understand why the dividend paid out remained at 1.7p, he said the buyback should have made it higher. He also didn't know how to find the daily volume. Well, today it was 1,365,996 pal. Lol what a 🤡!!

So much green eyes monster nonsense. It’s actually a real malaise of this country. |
Jimbull . I was a broker , I didn’t work at a hedge fund. The person in question was a trader at Merrill for 20 years but now works as a trader at said hedge fund. In the context of our conversation , it was very funny. That ok with you? |
Looks like jonnybig has another handle. Royston. Sad |
LOL Royston!!!!!! You've summed matthew up perfectly, love it!

A small buy back today but on a shortened day quite acceptable. Time to relax and look forward to a more promising 2025. IAG (British Airways) was my big gainer so patience can be rewarded. |
 Laugh of the week!
I had lunch on Friday in the city with a few old colleagues and clients of mine. One of them has a not insignificant midcap hedge fund. I told him I was long ITV and he laughed and said they’d been shorting it last week. I asked why and he said purely that they hate the UK (economy).
MattherR, so you told your Hedge Fund mate 'oh I am long ITV' then he laughed and said 'oh I have been shorting it all week'....is this an average brains trust conflab between two professional self styled Market Wizards. I think you have given us all a good laugh with your tall tales. I am still laughing at why so many on this thread exposed you as a fraud ages ago lol.. The City teaboy and his Hedge Fund buddy laughing their way to ITV's unlocked treasures!
As for this Hedge Fund guy who sticks a pin on ITV to short, it moves like tortoise up a bit and down a bit. Still thanks for the humour, so many will be astounded at how the Pro's discuss their investments. Oh Warren laughed and said he'd been shorting and I laughed and said I had been long and then we tucked into our Chicken McNuggets ha hah ha!!!
ROFLMAO |
Matthew - interesting and not unexpected from a fund. It’s also why I think there is huge potential here - as this simplistic view of ITV creates opportunity for those who dig a bit deeper. |
And thank you Cyberian. |
