Yeah, they definitely have an old data set. The shareholding they contacted my dad about was one of my mum's and she died 8 years ago! Be interesting to hear where it goes but such a shame such people exist.....

Thank you I will see what happens, it doesn't seem to add up. I think it is some kind of lure into a trap, what is strange is they phoned me on my mobile calling me by my maiden name, which I did use for investments about 20/15 years ago. I had a different mobile no then so somewhere my records have been compromised to may the leap with names. I will post whatever the outcome is.

I've had a few of these over the years for different shareholdings, where an alleged takeover is taking place. They ask you to sign an NDA & the next thing you know is they will ask for your bank details into which to pay the proceeds - unless there's an interim request to pay them some money before the proceeds can be released

My dad had similar for a different company. I can't work out the angle but as the company he used to own shares in had been taken private via takeover a few years ago it was clearly a con. Company called themselves sparrow capital I think from memory but when the paperwork came through it had a different name on it.

Did they say it was related to a takeover and you need to sign an NDA?

Anyone any idea why I have been contacted to sell a holding I didn't know I had in this company, call from New York, weird... Maybe a scam, I have owned in the past, don't know if I do now, cant access paperwork. Thanks

It's not a complaint. It's an observation about market movements and investor psychology. Can't see many folk complaining in a market like this. Markets are a on a wild bullish streak, so wild it suggests a short term top can't be far away.

Do you ever look at stock or market movements, scratch your head and think "Is it me or is the market completely bonkers at times?"

This stock was trading around 40p when we started to see the big downside wider market movements. Prior to that we had a very bullish market, and despite that, trading here was already troublesome. Even with the asset backing (which was well known by the market) the stock was in a firm downtrend.

Fast forward abit and it has taken a crisis of epic proportions, one that has effectively closed world economies, caused all visibility and guidance to be pulled, caused incredible uncertainty and damage on so many levels....and yet...here we are...

....with the stock now trading at 59p.

It has effectively taken a monumental deterioration of the macro and micro fundamentals to cause a re-rating of this stock higher.

Welcome to the crazy world of stock markets.

Xaar plc

Trading update

At the Annual General Meeting ("AGM") held in Cambridge today, Andrew Herbert, Chairman of Xaar plc ("Xaar" or the "Group") will make the following statement:-

OPERATIONS

In responding to the challenges surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, our priorities have been to safeguard the health and wellbeing of our colleagues, to maintain our business operations and to continue to serve our customers.

In March, when lockdown measures were introduced in the UK and elsewhere, we implemented safe working methods for all staff where their attendance on site was necessary, particularly in our factories, while other staff were able to work remotely. The whole team has demonstrated tremendous resilience in difficult circumstances and as a result the business has been able to operate efficiently and continue to meet its commitments to customers.

CURRENT TRADING AND OUTLOOK

Overall trading in the first four months of the new financial year has been in line with the expectation we established before the Covid-19 outbreak. Sales have been weaker in Europe and North America but stronger in Asia where economies have come out of lockdown sooner. Our short-term order book is healthy but the outlook for the second half of the year remains uncertain and it is too early to assess the impact of the pandemic on the results for the full year 2020 and into 2021.

The board will re-establish guidance on expectations as more economies emerge from lockdown and there is greater certainty surrounding economic conditions. We remain confident and focused on our medium-term strategy to return the business to profitability and growth.

BALANCE SHEET AND LIQUIDITY

The Group entered the year with a strong balance sheet and net cash and an appropriate level of funding to support its strategy. We have maintained disciplined cost control and strong cash management over the past four months and remain well positioned.

Good update, in line with pre covid forecast despite COVID which is remarkable. Strong growth in Asia vs weak in Europe. Europe is pulling out of crisis so looks like despite caution could have a good few months ahead.
The company is still valued below net asset or even winding up value probably so doesn't take into account IP or existing value of the business. Presumably they are breaking even at the moment and generating cash?
Always possibility of a takeover.

By the way if anyone is interested in a tip, you could do worse than look at EML. Seriously undervalued on all timescales IMO. Excellent management who haven't put a foot wrong, so far. DYOR of course!! I hold EML.

...or there was the mysterious Russian HNW (who never bothered making any holdings declarations, like most foreign based large PIs) who sold his holding in AAZ over many months, taking it down from 80p to below 4p... When he was finally out the share price went on a 3-year run to almost 200p - a 50-bagger!!Regrettably, unlike with Cape, I made a serious screw up of my investment in AAZ :-(

Cyberbub, thanks! Good story.... also your last sentence explains why they get away with such average to poor performance. The ultimate customers are not aware and the industry can live with mediocrity for a decent fee.

Bones great to see you in here.The craziest example I remember of what you describe is when Aviva started selling down a large holding in Cape, a large profitable engineering company, in the crash 11 years ago. The share price went from 300p all the way down to 17p - yes a 95% drop - in less than a month. I was lucky enough to get in with a leveraged trade almost at the very bottom, and rode it up to 90p-odd - I still regret selling out, as within a few months it had hit 500p!! Amazing to see what big instis do sometimes - we assume they know what they're doing but very often they don't, or are desperate... Just like PIs really!! The instis obviously rely on most of their customers/pensioners etc having no clue about their egregious mistakes!!

Lombard Odier just sold most of their OPM holding to the bidco arm of Wellesley Finance which surely they wouldn't have done unless they were desperate. Reckon they must be facing redemptions or similar and are selling out at any price in a lot of stuff.

Hopefully will see a spike up when they are out.
