One common theme with most shorted stocks is that when you look at the share price performance over the years they have been shorted, it shows a constant decline....

Carillion , Debenhams had been shorted for 4 years or more.

Looking at the share price here its done the opposite...

Saxo figures are out for trading in December. Equities have gone from $67.7bn in Nov to $80.5bn in Dec. So quite a big increase there, especially considering November was a good month for volatility too. FX down from $170.4 in Nov to $147.2 in Dec. Overall monthly volume from July to Dec in billions $ (316.2, 273.1, 242.7, 304.0, 264.9, 254.2). So still trading decent volume given the new regulation hit in August ($273.1bn). Has anyone spoken to Plus regarding the massive short interest? I've sent an email to IR asking for their views but haven't heard back yet.

Might be better off at trading if Elcapital2018 turned monitor/screen upside down.

[rackerrs1] 09/1/2019 13:45

lol what a loser

I'm not a chartist but basically if you take out the Summer/Autumn 18 up and down, this is virtually a steady straight line going steadily upwards over many years. There must be a name for that sort of chart? 'Nice' perhaps?

[sogoesit] 09/1/2019 13:24

(S)he's sick... wouldn't you be if you were short looking at that price chart?

Elcapital2018 is busy doing lots of research/reading/analysis and updating his detailed model.

Also busy preparing a copy paste of shorttracker, this takes up a lot of time.

No ElCapfool2018 this morning? No surprise there

Worth noting that Odey has very significantly reduced its short in IGG. This was always intended as a regulatory hedge to PLUS. And as far as I know, they had never really been bearish on IGG, but this may indicate their belief that the tougher regulatory issues are now in the rear view mirror. Either that or they are about to cut their position significantly in PLUS and make an idiot of me!!

I had posted a few weeks back that I expected to see a cut in Hanbury’s holding of PLUS, and that was not in fact, the outcome. Or rather, it seems that he transferred some of the position internally. So it seems that PLUS is - even at these prices - getting further buy-in from the other portfolio managers within Odey Asset Management. It is worth noting that there is high degree of independence between them.

I am not much of a technical trader (although a technician), but a cursory inspection of the share price graph would indicate that if the share price holds above 1500p, it moves easily to 1600p. Were it to break 1600p, all bets are off. It’s fascinating to watch the shorts building and having to keep so very patient. It’s a really high cost short.

Currently, I do not hold a large PA position (for trading), but I still have a significant interest via the fund manager.

Thanks Metis. Seems like their broker is back from Christmas holidays and getting on with it! Would love to see pressure on shorts with some aggressive buy backs at this valuation.

UK Retail CFD ban is neither here nor there A tiny tiny part of the business rhatton.

[bgw1970] 09/1/2019 07:21

rHatton- very unlikely - remember that leverage on those CFDs is only 2x now, and that this would only hit retail customers. The impact at a group level of banning cryptocurrency CFDs for retail cusotmers in the UK would be, I estimate, 0.3-0.5% of group revenues.
