Dire share price performance, little wonder one of the directors dumped a million at 4p 24th May !

As for Director buying, why would they when they've already stacked up 12,050,000 as options going forward.

[bashor] 13/6/2019 08:33

Well it doesn’t look like the directors are going to show confidence apart from in word form

Observations from the last 2 trading days, less than 10m shares were traded most were sells and the share price went down over 30%, the previous 2 weeks 60m shares were purchased and the price barely moved, its begs the question who sold so many at 3.96p so close to a profit warning

There's also the distinct possibility that they simply haven't updated their website

[bashor] 08/6/2019 13:19

I think BGF have 2 distinct sides one where they invest in private business to help grow them possibly putting a director in with the view to sell it in 3-5 years and then the investment managed side as is investment here

[gbh2] 08/6/2019 11:41

Possible they don't list it until accumulation is complete?

[pugugly] 08/6/2019 10:22

SUN not listed as a BGF investment on their portfolio website - So what am I missing?

or is there another division of BGF which is an investment company trading/investing in quoted companies.

Edited - Thought I had found answer to my own question - SUN not listed as one of their investments -
Confused - Any enlightment please?

[gbh2] 08/6/2019 09:16

Problem here is they have so few Investors, yesterday's 6 million was high volume for SUN but at 2 to 3p the cash was negligible and likely to have been PI movements imo.

Maybe the celebrity/Royalty obsessed ceo wasn't so bad after all!

[bashor] 08/6/2019 09:05

I’d rather they take a more measured approach with any forward looking statement as nasty surprises damage trust in investors, under promise and over deliver is always received well in my opinion

Share price is rather like the weather down in West Country yesterday, rain with sunny intervals. Rather have the transparency of any bad news up front so I can make an informed decision on whether to buy,sell,hold.I'm holding as I'm of the opinion that was an overly cautious trading statement.

Well I'm having that cure every day lol. Gla

[bashor] 07/6/2019 22:56

Good man, at times like these drink becomes the cure

[jmf69] 07/6/2019 22:44

I've had 5 pints of estrella followed by 5 pints of peroni with a couple of jager bombs thrown in. So I feel pretty good right now.

[bashor] 07/6/2019 21:13

Somewhat battered and bruised today by the news here so time to enjoy a glass of my favourite tipple, #livetofightanotherday

[bashor] 07/6/2019 17:52

John148 It could well be but often a profit warning is followed by other warnings, any buy signal for me would have to come from the directors with a sizeable purchase with some hard earned, then and only then would I consider adding

[john148] 07/6/2019 16:52

Oversold. Good buy opportunity.

Mandate, re 5105

Fund managers are more likely to miscalculate including the Special One Woodford - it's other people's money they are playing with - essentially a game of Monopoly to them. It is of no consequence what so ever to their careers or fortunes.

They think they walk on water, or are masters of the universe (Goldman Sachs).

So don't bother what fund managers think or do - if people think that we PIs are clueless with our money, fund managers are intoxicated, reckless and clueless and often just out of University with a degree in some totally unrelated field - it's just that Dad's golf partner, knows people in the City.

The last couple of weeks with BGF accumulating whilst us punters were able to get a 3.96 bid on millions of shares feels even stranger now after this mornings warning, none of us can complain as we had the chance to sell the lot should we choose, the puzzle is still scrambled in my brain, BGF were allowed in at 4p just before a significant announcement!! Still no news of a seller so why didn’t the price rise substantially from 4p? Until it becomes clear I’ll remain suspicious of a low ball offer engineered at around 4p and none of us could complain, food for thought

[gbh2] 07/6/2019 14:44

Company Directors are the only ones to have obtained a significant and continues profit from the company, during the two decades I've held their shares, so I guess they would be looking forward with confidence to continuing to do so :)

[van zandt] 07/6/2019 14:10

“We continue to invest in operational excellence and innovative product development as the main drivers of organic growth, and to evaluate the potential for enhanced growth by acquisition. The directors recognise that the impact of the above external market factors on the Group is disappointing; however, as "significant shareholders" in the Group we continue to look to the future with "confidence" (" "Emphasis mine)

1. I am wondering which of the 3 syllables in confidence; you kind people would put the most stress on in relation to anything regarding the running of our company by the whole management?

2. How would you regroup or use in the singular the said syllables?
As ever regards

This'll keep going as long as someone is willing to pick up the odd few million shares every year.

[mandate] 07/6/2019 11:44

Honestly, what FUD.
