big buyers competing for stock

[its the oxman] 27/4/2017 08:17

Next stop 185p please.

There's an analyst meeting at their first PRS project: The Court, Clarendon Quarter, Leeds today. (I could have gone - nobody asked me.) This is it:



It's a fairly genteel old part of Leeds near to the University and should prove popular. The building itself used to be a school. It seems to be owned by AIG (US insurance company) so we have some pretty impressive clients!

I think we can realistically target 2 quid in the next 6 months, this is probably now fairly valued. The easy money has been made here and the re rating probably almost over. Still solid long term though.

Even after the rise it's on a PE of 12 and a PEG of around 0.6, so it's moved from very underpriced to merely underpriced.

Given this, why would it fall rapidly?

[3800] 26/4/2017 17:16

Given the near vertical rise in the share price chart since January where does the the consesus of opinion think the top will be? I have to say I haven't a clue but what goes up quickly tends to fall even more rapidly.

There was actually one large "O" trade earlier :- 15:35:23 173.0000 300,000 O

[greyingsurfer] 26/4/2017 15:48

Absolutely, someone or some institution decides they want to buy or sell!

[manrobert] 26/4/2017 15:42

is there not any human element behind price movements?

[jonwig] 26/4/2017 14:44

manrobert - almost all trades on WJG are SETS, and marked 'AT'. The dreaded market makers have no role.

[manrobert] 26/4/2017 14:27

market makers gradually raising offer price.all looking good.

[skinny] 26/4/2017 10:50

Yes - that's another new high.

Peel Hunt Buy 170.25 185.00 185.00 Reiterates

[rivaldo] 26/4/2017 10:38

A couple of AT trade buys at 171.5p today. Looking good.

[manrobert] 24/4/2017 11:08

hope so as I have just bt 9500

[its the oxman] 24/4/2017 09:39

Looking set for a break through 170p this week.

[2vdm] 21/4/2017 12:19

Yes he's just bought another 1.15 million shares taking the holding to over 11%, so 16% held by Blackrock & Woodford

[jonwig] 21/4/2017 11:54

salchow - thanks. If it was any good, others would be doing it.

[rivaldo] 21/4/2017 11:34

Excellent - should attract some decent attention. Woodford is buying up fast - he had 26.1m last month, so he's bought over 3m more since then:

[salchow] 21/4/2017 11:31

jonwig - Blackrock do this all the time on some shares that I follow. When I see them come in on a share I own I think "oh no the dreaded Blackrock". They can be in and out like a yo-yo while in some cases loaning the shares for shorting although evidently not in this case.

[bruceylegs] 21/4/2017 11:20

Woodford just bought some more

[jonwig] 21/4/2017 09:30

That rather blows up my theory from post #845!

However,the total number of voting rights is now 13,349,980 (5.22%) up from 13,334,980 (19/04), and 13,346,962 (18/04). CFDs are included in these. That's effectively unchanged. I've no idea what they're up to.

[skinny] 21/4/2017 09:28

A couple of very small trades at 170p earlier.

[2vdm] 21/4/2017 09:23

Very odd, this was my post on 19th April above "I don't quite understand what Blackrock have done, buying 160K shares approx taking them over the 5% threshold and then reducing their holding immediately by 12K shares taking them below 5%. Any views?"

Blackrock have now bought 12K back within 2 days, taking them over the 5% reporting threshold!
