Motley Fool, so judge for yourself just how useful it is:-

..."how many ADVFN users does it take to change a light bulb."

Ooo!

Those who denied lightbulbs ever really worked. All a Bill Gates hoax...
Those who denied there was such a thing as electricity; you can't see it with your own eyes...
Those who accepted they worked but claim they are all part of a plot by the 'Elites' and the 'Illuminati'(!) to use "electromagnetic radiation" to kill off ordinary people...
Those who claimed light bulbs were the cause of the "Plandemic"...

So... likely quite a few. :-)

thats exactly what I was saying but not so posh.
Its like how many ADVFN users does it take to change a light bulb.

Yes, just the same UT there is at the start and end of every single day the market is open. Sometimes bigger, sometimes smaller 🤷‍a94;️
Definitely nothing to see here

What is an uncrossing trade?An uncrossing trade is where buyers on the bid and sellers on the ask match together in a single trade at the end of an auction period. The uncrossing trade shows up with the trade code "UT" on the London Stock Exchange.

[watfordhornet] 12/5/2024 15:42

It's a UT. It is clearly stated as one

[netcurtains] 12/5/2024 15:26

There was not...
Judging by price of trade and price of L&G
it was a collection of SELLs during the day..

[masurenguy] 12/5/2024 15:13

There was !

[watfordhornet] 12/5/2024 14:25

There was not

[masurenguy] 12/5/2024 14:08

3.5m share purchase (£8.65m) at the close on Friday !

Performance here is still pathetic. Given the FTSE has shot up so much in 3 months. Much unloved (like the banking sector/telecoms and so on).

Ron, WC, thanks for the Withholding tax info. I will check with ii, my SIPP provider if I intend to buy US listed shares.

Mms don't make decisions based on some kind of personal feelings towards the share. Essentially they are guided by supply and demand from pro investors. If LGEN doesn't rise it's because there is a net insufficient demand. The effect is that very short term share prices mostly move randomly as pros all have different reasons to buy or sell.

[fionascott1234] 10/5/2024 13:14

Mms have decided you have had enough. LGEN cannot maintain rises despite 60 + in FTSE.

[anhar] 10/5/2024 12:54

Turvart: ...What I'm trying to say in basic layman terms is this IFRS 9 & 17 accounting is hard to understand for most investors and it skews the EPS & PE figures, then by skewing the figures and investors no longer understand how to read results etc they will probably avoid buying...

I doubt very much that small investors understand much of insurance company accounts at all, whatever the prevailing accounting standards. Pros will though and they are all that matters in share pricing, not the likes of us who are irrelevant.

For historical reasons I can read accounts but am usually not bothered to do so in great detail. That's because as purely an income investor I'm concerned primarily with divis and I don't need to delve into the minutiae for this purpose.

Clearly this is American money being put to work here but it’s selective how far they go is anyone’s guess but behind all the fudge the UK economic situation is dire and when we finally get a 0.25% cut markets will probably tank lol.

[netcurtains] 10/5/2024 09:58

ABDN and PHNX playing catch up this morning?
Or is LGEN just taking a breather?
