It's good to buy, until they actually do go bust! It's a risky game to play but at some point it's not going to go well.

+ another 90% or so. Pretty crazy, some people made a lot of money playing the dangerous game.

Just a question, on trading 212 one of my holdings has a sell price about 10p lower than the current price the shares are trading at, no other of my shares have this issue.

Is it a case of there isn't as much demand for people to buy them off of me so I get a low ball offer or something else entirely?

Thanks.

I believe that normally occurs where the shares aren't traded in large volumes. This article explains a bit better than I can.

I have Warehouse REIT (WHR) in my portfolio. There’s an offer as a shareholder to buy a additional shares:-

WAREHOUSE REIT PLC is proposing an Open Offer on the following basis:

1 New Ordinary share for every 3 Existing Ordinary shares held at an Issue Price of GBP1.10 per New Ordinary share.


What I’m struggling with here is the closing price today was GBP 1.09. Looks like an unattractive offer or am I missing something?
I'm also holding Warehouse and not overly tempted by the latest offering (especially as a long term holder, going down to 70p a few months ago makes it even less appealing!!).

Question though - will the offer impact on the current share price at all?
In my limited experience, share price will tend towards offer price, or just below. Obviously future gains and dividends diluted by the additional volume.
Your ownership percentage is diluted however if the new capital is deployed and makes a return in line with the past or better then earnings/performance is not effected. Not advice but I would think Persimmon would be a far better property play. Strong earnings, very strong balance sheet and dividend.
WHR still at 110p so the price hardly moved, needless to say I passed on the offering.

Persimmon not paying dividends as far as I can see?

Similar happened with Hertz. Seems counter intuitive to me but clearly it's working for some people.

The July 2020 dividend has been postponed until March 21 and the planned July 21 dividend has been increased. read into that what you will but my take is they stopped the payment to be prudent, assessed the impact and made a subsequent announcement (showing real strength)

If you are interested in the company have a read of their trading update. It's impressive and I don't see any real impact at all.

just getting into having a play with T212, only about £2500 in and plans for £500 a month going forward to build up a nice little plaything/nestegg

my thinking is £250 every month into something like vanguard as a safe(ish) option then have a flutter on some more interesting stuff with another £150-200 a month and then stack up on some outside bets ideally penny stocks


already loaded up with 1/4 million kodal and some a few in Kitov pharma but does anyone have any recommendations for some cheap stocks to pick up 50k shares in for a proper long shot?

Thank you. I have some Persimmon shares and had been thinking of selling due to the lack of dividends. I’ll take a look at the update.

Wasn't he the whimsical one in "Last of the Summer Wine"?

I cannot imagine anything being very "furious" about him! Will be just be all about trying to keep the status quo.....

It would appear that gun stocks have been a pretty good investment this year. People in the US were stocking up on guns with the Coronavirus lockdowns.

Now they have looters and unrest it's boosted the sale of guns further.

Some people have ethical issues about making such investments.

The market in general has been on steroids lately, not sure what I want to re-invest my Boohoo money into. Might buy more Easyjet but feel like i'm late to the party.
Would have doubled your money on Smith & Wesson in June but that's hindsight for you.

From what I hear of the US there's still plenty of demand for more guns.

I hate Clegg and I rarely say such things. He’s a sell out. I never thought Facebook would be a buy and hold. Massive risk with their ‘I’ll take all comers’ attitude. Insidious and vile. And when you reflect, what can they offer. Exactly what they do offer. Just rubbish.

I wonder if Boo will take a dive tomorrow. There’s a big article about their Leicester sweatshops in today’s Sunday Times including an undercover reporter. I’d post a link but it’ll be behind a paywall.

Some of it here:-

I doubt it- doesn't look like a company owned facility and they've publicly said they'll cease doing business with such suppliers if rules are breached. BOO is fully priced imo. I personally think the founders are unpredictable

The Sunday Times article is much more damming but behind a paywall.

A lot of the story available here:-
