Mug retail investors trapped at the top. :-(

Even banks have increased by 15% to 20% over the last 10days.
The sector issues on their books is frightening.
The number of zombie businesses in which they’re having to continue to lend. Piling debt on debt. At some point these begin to fail, possibly in the next 3months, which will have a significant impact on those balance sheets. Provisioning policy????

welcome to las vegas.

[careful] 09/10/2020 07:22

just checked the prices on Halifax.

buy 215p sell 184p.

a huge spread, odd market pricing.

Mostly shorts closing IMHO, normal service will be resumed next week.

[smartie6] 09/10/2020 07:20

Isn’t it mental that PI’s are going in heavy on failing Companies?
Many with no future.
To think that RR are now trading at 215p and Cineworld at 30p. Pure madness?
Setting up another feeding frenzy for the shorters?
Feel for those that are going to be wiped out following these prices.

Tfergi, answer to your question is the PI feeling that there’s bargains. Mental?

Can someone summarise in a nutshell why this is flying over the last few days ? I have seen that the government may be using them for power plants ect.... is that what driving the rise ?

[r88ave] 09/10/2020 07:15

time to short once auction is finished

[kulvinder] 09/10/2020 07:15

Having said that would shIhad the balls to buy 10,000 this time last week at around 1 pound a share. Good luck all. Not going to chance it at this price.

[babbler] 09/10/2020 07:15

They are selling their stake...

[babbler] 09/10/2020 07:14

Built a stake?

[kulvinder] 09/10/2020 07:14

Just be mindful also that it maybe due to shorts unwinding thus driving price up....

[careful] 09/10/2020 06:50

so an American company has built up a stake.
explains the recent rise.

[notknowing] 09/10/2020 06:29

thebull is 100% correct.

Told you the large players were offloading into the retail-driven-strength.

[sbs] 09/10/2020 06:12

That might not apply if the purchases are automatic and contractual.

[thebull8] 08/10/2020 21:40

A director (who would be classed as an insider) cannot buy or sell stock if a takeover of being discussed. There is categorically no takeover happening here Add in the fact that you would not conduct a right issue if you were planning on selling/merging

[sr2day] 08/10/2020 20:51

charities exploit others finalncially too with fat cats managing the funds just like at RR.i think there are better hands on ways of helping the elderly.

post transaction market cap

[dealy] 08/10/2020 20:31

At Friday's low the oost transaction market cap was just 4 billion quid after 2 bill of new equity money going in. Rhat was clearly stupidly low. But even it is only 6 billion quid after 2 billion of new money going in. Pre covid the market cap was about 14 billion. 6 seems more than reasonable

[dealy] 08/10/2020 20:23

I wasn't able to follow my own advice this week by selling out around 140p after the 40p bounce from Friday.The reason it's going up is because the post transaction value is considered to be at least 6 billion quid hence the rise in the underlying stock this week (8 billion shares times theoretical ex rights price of now about 75p).For some reason today I forgot this and started thinking it was 8 billion shares times 2 quid or 16 billion which would probably be way too high. It never should have fallen even to 130p never mind 100p.

[careful] 08/10/2020 20:23

Almost doubled in 1 week.
But down 85% since jan 1st.

Crazy volatility.

Hard to guess what this will do over the next few weeks.

We all knew a fund raising was on the way.
After the announcement the share price halved, then doubled.

Standing back they are raising £2bn.
That should pay for the restructure and cover losses for the next 2-3 years.

[topvest] 08/10/2020 20:05

Very surprising share price move over the last few days. Who would have thought it. Is it just me, or have markets gone a bit crazy!

[renzokukenreddragon] 08/10/2020 19:32

My losses this year are worth it for this comment alone.
