You will have to excuse Alf these days CD as he spends most of his time on holiday...he also seems to have gone blind.

3700 remains a long way north of 3400 and nof course my question to CD was ignored

Stan - talking of being blind, have you noticed the relative performance of BATS and IMB of late?

No why should I?

Holding(s) in Company

sp has got excited once more, but no obvious reason and volume not exciting either

has there been a chunky bear position in this stock?
if so, it may be that the squeeze is being applied, as sp is now at its highest since 23/10 when it was already heading sharply downward

===================

banked a very nice profit at 3959 from nowhere on my trading position
still hold in my sipp

cynic - see the rns above - coincides with the start of the rise.





Sachem Head are known to be 'active' shareholders.

Its a start.....

cynic :- Whitbread share price jumps as activist investor stake puts Costa breakup on the table

we knew that yesterday ...... imo, this surge is probably overdone but i'll continue to hold in my sipp

Yes - I was spelling it out for you........ :-)
