The future looking brighter for some investors, clearly. :-) |
Depressing |
Another low of the year |
The German economy is looking up.. |
Absolutely!
..and at the end of February Marshall Wace actually decreased their short! |
A brave investor that shorts at these levels. I am sure we all sympathise with them if the get it wrong. :-} |
Ilex Capital Partner - new short position above .05% in WTB.
Marshall Wace increased their short again, before the end of February. |
* Jack - Germany. |
Bent a rule, added to an offside position , a modest investment that I hope not to regret tomorrow. That £400K buy was not me |
Why O Why is this being punished as its not USA or Trump related. |
MW are out there on their own with a notifiable short interest of just 1.4%, it's not as if they've convinced anyone to join them. I wouldn't take too much notice of just one small single notifiable short. 98.6% are long (excluding anything under 0.5%). |
tiobs, is that a serious comment?.
The only scenario where I could see that occurrence is on a bid for Whitbread.
MW established their position at significantly higher share price levels.
Rather than PI's berating short interest, try questioning what potential business weakness they may see.. |
Fingers crossed they get their @rses well and truly burnt on this one :-)

Last purchase was in November when they were paying 30 per share... seems like a good time to roll it out now |
Perfect time to buy back shares and cancel them at these lows. Have they started the £100 million buyback announced in October 2024 - April 2025? The document says they will report shares repurchased the following day but I can't find this information |
Another low of the year |
Es , I have covid on filter including his new name. I do not post in any board unless I have position ie long position in it. Even if I have long position if the news are negative I will put it forward as I see it . |
They've done well on that trade. Let's hope they unwind it and leave WTB alone for awhile |
2newinvestor,
Action is posting a personal view, just as brokers publish price targets.
A broker can significantly alter a price target (on a given stock) in the blink of an eye - this happens regularly.
None of us have a crystal ball. There could be a bid for WTB tomorrow which would instantly alter the investment case dynamic, or this may never happen.
What I have noted over the last 12 months, are a couple of chunky director sales And the absence of any significant director buying, coupled with a Marshall Wace short position.
IF the current share price represents great value, you might question why some of the non execs are not adding. |
Not a bad idea re the call centre and further expansion in Germany would seem to make sense. Agree re Rachel from accounts but I suspect her days are numbered given her ill thought out hatchet job to date targeting pensioners, farmers and employers (and ultimately all of us, the public are not daft). |
