Should be making very decent profits in this environment.

The final results may detail the closure of the defined benefit pension scheme. I would imagine there are ongoing negotiations aimed at achieving a settlement, it is possible they will become more protracted. The 49 million is described as an excess. Is there is anything illegal going on, there are numerous examples of large corporations closing defined benefit pension schemes. Of course there will be ex employees who believe they are entitled to more. From the perspective of the organisation and shareholders it is a sound decision as it eliminates potential future pension liability risk.

It is odd it's got 7 brokers with targets, 2 say strong buy, 4 say buy and 1 says hold. There isn't one saying sell. Yet you've got a holder lending out shares to short this.

Not sure why people are holding onto broker targets. These are the brokers and there something very wrong with em!

Barclays Reiterates Overweight Rating for TP ICAP Group GBX400 price target

I suspect this is sentiment driven on the back of recent FED 'talking tough' which in reality is probably just the usual 'paper tiger' routine and that could well mean renewed interest in the bond market as more stuff hits the fan.

Still going down here I see. Chart is horrendous.

Stock lending is definitely shorting.

[bluemango] 21/2/2022 12:18

Or thinks they do

[jezza123] 21/2/2022 12:07

well all should be revealed in a little over two weeks - I quite agree that something is disconnected here... the quarterly report was basically fine (though lacking on full details) and yet the share has tanked at least 25% since then.

Someone knows something.

[bluemango] 21/2/2022 10:53

I agree that the stock lending description would seem to suggest shorting.

On the plus side for Tcap, increased market volatility in general has historically been of benefit to their earnings.

A look at the chart shows that the share price has been dropping like a stone since the RNS announcement.

[alex1621] 21/2/2022 09:57

Yes, nothing disclosed. But I would be interested to know what that recent RNS meant? What is stock lending, if not for shorting?

[brucie5] 21/2/2022 09:51

Share your watching interest, it's a bit of an enigma. But the share price still looks like having further down to go, particularly if it breaks November's double bottom. Below that, £1.05 would be quarter of it's 2019 peak price. And of course the £1 level is usually and irrationally, a very significant support.

[bluemango] 21/2/2022 09:48

No disclosed short positions according to Shorttracker.

Most recent was a year ago.

[alex1621] 21/2/2022 09:46

Liontrust investment have 10% of the shares. On the RNS it stated "stock lending". I am no expert, but it looks like it's being shorted. I would welcome anyone else's input, as I may be totally misinterpreting that.

I just started looking at this one. I can't figure out what is wrong with this company. The accounts look fairly solid and the dividend payout, which is is well covered, is quite generous. Yet, the share price has been falling for a long time. The directors don't seem to be willing to take a decent stake either. Can anyone shed some light on this?
Thank you all. Ale.
