Strong volume again with plenty of buying evident throughout the day.

Been making a small flag on the chart during this session. Close around 110p if it breaks out this afternoon?

"more money into a system will always depress prices it's called competition"

Wrong economics 101 if demand outpaced supply margins won't decrease any time soon.. Although they will at some point.

We are seeing the sector evolve into something much much bigger... Into its own asset class where it can be used as an insurance product by third parties and the underlying asset is tradable between different investors just like venture capital trades are made.

I expect that jonwig owns MANO and not LIT. He would obviously prefer you therefore to buy the former. He likes to talk his own book. These threads exist for his propaganda.

I fully expect to be zapped by the newly blue wiggy for trying to tell the truth, LOL

[jaws6] 01/4/2019 09:02

plus LIT has not been to any event yet like MANO so few pi do not know them !!

[nimbo1] 01/4/2019 09:00

im not arguing that. What Im saying is access is more important than pricing in the asian market. Opening up of the hong kong market for example is new - there is no capital focussed there...more about access as opposed to pricing don't you think?

[solarno lopez] 01/4/2019 08:59

As you can see you can always argue a case either away but more money into a system will always depress prices it's called competition !

[nimbo1] 01/4/2019 08:57

I think LIT is more insulated as they have the pan asian network in place and that market is just opening up. If you read about how big Burford think the market is we are no where near saturation...but then they would say the potential marketplace is large.

These funds don't have the ability to manage cases, and the guys they back will be hunting the larger cases, I don't think we have to worry about the money flowing into the space for a few years.. The demand for litigation funding is growing very fast.. Just look at our order book

[jonwig] 01/4/2019 08:50

gaius - that's an important point. At present, demand for TPLF is probably increasing more quickly than the supply of funds, but that could certainly change if SWFs diversify away from equities and bonds (eg. Norway is dumping its O&G investments).

MANO might be less affected, as its individual investments are small, and it's a UK-centred operation.

[gaiusgracchus] 01/4/2019 08:42

I'm an investor in MANO and have a small position in LIT. The news of this Therium group raising £325m for deployment into this space over the next 2 years does not fill me with happiness. Are we going to see the space consumed with capital which will in turn depress returns? That's what I'm concerned about.

Real momentum in the sector...

"The benefits of funding are becoming increasingly widespread across the world; from claimants that would not otherwise have the capital to launch their claims, to the largest corporates that use funding to transform claims into financial assets."

I think the market isnt paying enough attention to the recent news

i found this info on twitter

"Clyde & Co has entered into an arrangement w- disputes funder Litigation Capital Management to help its clients “unlock new ways to manage & pay for disputes.” Clyde & Co’s global arbitration practice Cochair B. Knowles says clients are “increasingly ready” for 3rd party funding"

Nick Rowles has stated that he thinks the 3rd party funding market in the future will probably dwarf the entire size of the litigation funding market at present..

Its a business that I can have the confidence of holding through a recession should there be one because that will create more work for the pipeline.

Patrick and Nick are both already very successful,wealthy and well known in the space, so for me I think they are wanting to leave their mark by creating a very successful company.

So far all the ground work is done and now its just a matter of scaling the business up which that have proven they can so far. Will be interesting to see how they go when they start managing third party capital also.

Well done B.A.B.

The important thing is where is it going over the next few years. You seem to know the company well. Clearly medium -long term with a fair wind and some decent wins this could be a large company.

Short term (end 2019) I’m hoping a share price of c.150p should be achievable. What is your view?

[robsy2] 29/3/2019 17:50

Good for you bbab!
Happy days

[bigbadaussiebear] 29/3/2019 16:29

TOLD YOU SO! BOOM! +105% on my 400k shares in 7 months WOOOSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[cf456] 29/3/2019 14:57

Volume really starting to pick up this Month.



The story is beginning to pick up momentum by the looks of it.

[greenknight1] 29/3/2019 11:34

Certainly is!!

[gconvery] 29/3/2019 11:34

Breakout on good volume....?

[bigbigdave] 29/3/2019 10:04

Arden initiate coverage on LIT with a buy rec. and target price of 140p.

"Have £5k to invest? I’m confident this stock could double your money"

"Another company that has recently sprung up in the litigation finance sector is Litigation Capital Management (LSE: LIT). With a market capitalisation of only £100m at the time of writing, compared to Burford’s £3.6bn, the business is a tiddler compared to its larger peer.

However, if the firm can replicate Burford’s success, I think investors could double or even triple their money with this enterprise over the next few years."


"If earnings per share continue to grow at 100% to 200% per annum, it could be worth 180p to 260p in the near future."
