GSK not for me too much risk lol.

Shorting has killed this sp,bad management and decisions made with high cost purchases,such as the Spanish book purchase would never have been made in this global nightmare.
Shorting by cash rich PI groups,(doing what was primarily reserved for institutional funds to protect a falling share price when long) systematically targeting share groups in mass will be proved to be the undoing of many a good company. This will be holding back Indices for years to come. Spain and Italy have been the first to ban shorting,if some restrictions have only been enforced on shorting financial companies in Italy. This will be a pre requisite to preserving the euro,and bans on shorting will be agreed throughout Europe and the ECB will then start to do whatever is required to accomplish a euro survival plan,making a fund available never seen before.

It has been made too easy for gross profits to be made shorting at times of forced turmoil. Many old guard investors have been caught out in this get rich quick strategy.
I do not feel it is the debt that is the problem,this has been well managed,the company new BOD's are playing a blinder in repaying debt on the cheap.(playing within the rules,the new rules that have evolved in this modern, if not semi corrupt world we live in.
Today is the start for this company,they could have saved lots of these changes for the future,if they felt the way forward was to collapse existing s/holders.

I feel 2011 and the long drawn out debt negotiation,the link up with Znode,Microsoft,buying of moonfruit and other m&a activity tells me there is life in the old dog yet.
I must admit i have lost the plot with the short position here,i cannot understand why an enquiry has not been agreed. This was after all the most shorted share history has provided to date.
I feel, for what its worth income will boomerang,this will be reported in the clear light of day when the company feel the time is right. I cannot see this current share price languishing at these lows for long,I certainly cannot see income dropping to force a massive D4E,but time will tell. I still have the placing price of 42p ringing in my ears and waiting for a decent forward statement to settle the ship.
WTFDIK

Good luck

So WESTY WHAT IS YOUR VIEW ON ALL THIS. YOU KNOW MORE THAN MOST I HAVE SEEN AS I HAVE SEEN YOU ON OTHER THREADS.

[sir rational] 26/7/2012 18:55

give me a song

[comedy] 26/7/2012 18:54

lol is she singing " STAIRWAYS TO HEAVEN?"

Are the votes for resolutions at AGM rigged?

Eleven of the resolutions had less witheld votes than I hold, and I didn't vote on anything. How can this be.

My shares are held in a Crest account, do the managers of these accounts use your votes to their own ends or what.

[knigel] 26/7/2012 18:28

So your take is company will buy back shares cheaply to cause share spike and shorts closing..so that at some point in the future new shares are issued (D4E) at a much higher price....makes sense

[sir rational] 26/7/2012 18:25

That must have been the reason they wound down revenues so sharply - let's make it look bad

[inphoman] 26/7/2012 18:23

Or if a company was going to buy it's own shares back why wouldn't they want them as close to worthless as possible?
