LexShares [link] Crunchbase LexShares | Crunchbase Online marketplace for investing in litigation I’m guessing this won’t get many comments, but anyone know about these guys? They aren’t “listed” as far as I can tell. Private company, but I’m interested in investing in the sector. For infor. I already own BUR1 and BUR2 Cheers, Devon

Double Bottom bullish signal freedom-thirty5: Is that actually happening? Burford have announced that they intend to now list on NYSE or NASDAQ. So yes, it is official. It is in one of their recent RNSs

Double Bottom bullish signal Capita Structure: 10% Debt 90% equity. That should keep my toes dry with a bit of luck.

Double Bottom bullish signal So I did buy some BUR1 in the end. Not in they way I thought I would. Small amount, yield to maturity 8.4%.

Double Bottom bullish signal freedom-thirty5: Totally transparent and a total menace to the markets. It will be a travesty if MW are allowed to get away with this - of course, there will be no proof that they were involved in the illegal market manipulation. However, at best they purposely created a situatiobn whereby those who were prepared to use illegal means cut set the (easily guessed) company up for a big fall and then announced they woukld name the company at 080 London time the next day. They actually tweeted late but the illegal manipulation of the price started 3 minutes before their tweet. At the very least, therefore, someone within MW was leaking to outsiders about the timing. Now BUR has replaced their CFO and announced listing in USA under the strictest of market listing rules (overseen by the S.E.C.) along with around $10m of director buys, I don’t see what else they can do. Their problem now is if they can raise finance for future litigation. If they can’t, their own cash on hand will reduce them to much slower growth and hence the market multiple (I.e the stock price) will be lower than it was previously when they were agresiively buying out the competition. I don’t see how AIM can allow this to stand. Their biggest listed company is bweing forced off their exchange simply to address allegations which actually have no impact on the company operating performance. I suspecft MW will get away with it though because of the absence of direct evidence. Its only a matter of time before they do it again, therefore, and just being on AIM appears to be one of the the things they list as a reason a company is over-priced. Meanwhile, London loses the listing of the biggest publicly floated litigation company in the world to its greatest competitor, New York based on the word of “activists using free speech as a weapon”. MW promised a follow-up report that hasn’t come. I don’t think BUR have done anything illegal, Its all about the interpretation of new accounting rules. They have chosen to interpret them one way and their auditors have been happy with that decision. Unfortunately, the fact that the larger auditor’s performance has been called into question of late hasn’t helped. The case for this whole thing being illegal is clear. The build up in social media by supporters of MW. The ‘drum-roll’ timing of the released name in their tweet. The apparent illegal manipulation of the markets through cancelled sell orders. MW’s own timing of shorting shares then covering the position. Anyone who knows anything would convict on a jury on the circumstantial evidence - but will a prosecution ever come about? I tend to doubt it. I’m afraid that leaves us all vulnerable to similar attacks in future.

GTC limit lifted “when do one cares” as Kryptes has posted. I think you will find its no one …lol Lets hope you do one.

Double Bottom bullish signal IF something is cheap it’s cheap for a reason, buy cheap and buy twice they say, you will buy twice here as you could have to average down. Per your last two sentences I agree, so why would you risk investing now? pick a solid stable company instead? everyone trying to make a quick buck nearly always gets out played.

Double Bottom bullish signal Lastemporer: BUR is currently uninvestable Sounds like the words of somebody who wants the shares cheaper. having read through everything, it seems to be that BUR has brought forth a robust and cogent rebuttal of the Bear Raiders’ claims. Saw the same thing happen to IQE a year or so ago. totally baseless attack on a company whose shares happened to be at a historic high. Totally transparent and a total menace to the markets.

Lastemporer 14 Aug 2019

Double Bottom bullish signal BUR is currently uninvestable, no one knows how much it’s really worth which means the share price has no idea also.

GTC limit lifted Kryptes. I did mean to post do not but you seem to have got the message . I post my trades live so others can trust the price i state . To many like you posting on these sites under many different names not worth taking notice of them i suggest to other readers . Narcissist i think someone must of called you one and you are transferring it on . What makes you think you speak for others . ( part of you condition i’m afraid )

GTC limit lifted Ripley94: You do have to read my posts I don’t think I do, actually. What you know about equity investing wouldn’t fill a postcard. Quite why you feel the need to parade your ignorance and go on and on about your last ‘trade’ when do one cares less is a mystery. Narcissism? Look it up.
