FTSE just wanting to fall and TW following the herd!

[smurfy2001] 21/4/2010 11:54

Just goes to show, it's got a mind of it's own

[londonfinancial] 21/4/2010 11:49

Just to add the ftse is down nearly 50 points and we are currently up a bit .

[londonfinancial] 21/4/2010 11:48

Grax , I think you have a great imagination , all builders are around the same price as a year ago .

[grax] 21/4/2010 11:40

I think it is the same problem that TW has been suffering from for the last year.TW has just become a tool of the big money boys - hedge fund managers etc- who are using TW as their own little petty cash stock.

It has been quite evident to see that each time the share price tries to nose upward someone sprinkles a load of AT sells onto the SETS system.Volumes are irrelevant,news is irrelevant,sector movement is irrelevant and general market sentiment only chimes in with TW on down days.

At some point the hedgies etc will move it in one direction and all take a load of money out of the stock.It is easy for them.FSA don't look too hard at this sort of situation in case they find something and have to take on the hedgies who have the FSA under their thumb.

Absolutely.

Looks like we were right , there was someone buying up any spare stock , are we now in a phase of bored PI,S handing over their shares to institutions ?

Cheers Jibba, only saw this,

[Investors urged to block Barclays 'potentially excessive' pay plans ]

[spennysimmo] 21/4/2010 10:31

Either way, it is buying activity.

[the_analyst] 21/4/2010 10:27

Spenny,

Over 40% in the nominee account (see table at the bottom), so could be PI's holdings, e.g., ISA, SIPPS, etc? Seems they are holding on behalf of several parties.

[jibba_jabba] 21/4/2010 10:26

smurf check the citywire twitter in the header, saw something about Barc, i dont hold but think you do..

[spennysimmo] 21/4/2010 10:26

It all depends, it is unknown what there holding was prior. They could have owned nothing or they could have owned 2.99% but did not need to report it so they may have just added a few.

[orchestralis] 21/4/2010 10:21

Maybe they were only prepared to buy them at a certain price.

[jibba_jabba] 21/4/2010 10:19

That's naughty holding the price back so they can load up...

[spennysimmo] 21/4/2010 10:14

Institutional Investor has just bought to take their holding over 3%. RNS.

[orchestralis] 21/4/2010 09:54

This is about to go pop!

[the_analyst] 21/4/2010 09:53

grax,

No probs. I too recall the avatar without the underscore. I have always posted under this alias (been on advfn over 7 years!)...sad or wot?!
:0)

[gbh2] 21/4/2010 09:46

Clue at the top of the thread ;)

[ggekkko] 21/4/2010 09:45

when are the next major announcements due?

[grax] 21/4/2010 09:34

A previous encumbent of the id 'the analyst' was a poster who also posted as picky micky amongst other names.He did not have the lower case hyphen in his though.

Sorry for the confusion.

[the_analyst] 21/4/2010 09:28

Grax,

picky micky?!!!...sorry don't follow!

[gbh2] 21/4/2010 09:01

atm I'd be happy seeing 39p as support as opposed to the pain in the butt resistance its been acting as lately!!

[uknighted] 21/4/2010 08:56

Good thread JJ. Thanks

On that topic I always marvel at the amount of airtime and press inches devoted to this pointless 'poll' business.History tells us that it is useless for gauging genuine opinion as the last elections have proved yet this whole industry has built up around them and hes become so intertwined that we have this tosh blasted at us from all angles.

Then some bright sparks start talking about how these polls will affect the markets and we end up with this ludicrous position of all this hot air actually impacting on share prices!

You've gotta laugh!



ps
The Analyst - is that you picky micky?
