Any thoughts on this?
It looks to be well undersold, but Vince says this is [url=http://www.theguardian.com/business/nils-pratley-on-finance/2013/oct/09/could-chatter-royal-mail-sharesfroth[/url
The shares were sold at 330p and are trading at 450p
Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but .........

You'll get £750 quid's worth at the start price at least that's how I read it.
Vince used to have all the answers about how to stop the city exploiting us all, even down to how much pension Fred Goodwin was entitled to. He seems much more pragmatic these days though! |

you will have 227 shares bought at £750, and they are currently worth about £1000. |

Yes but that was when he thought that he never had a cat in hells chance of ever having to prove any of the things he talked about. |

Today's [iPrivate Eye[/i states that, by 30 October 2013, Goldman Sachs owned 21.5 million shares in Royal Mail.
This can't be the same respected and trustworthy Goldman Sachs company(*) that HMG asked to handle the sell-off for them?
Nah, can't be ... I mean, that would be a conflict of interest, wouldn't it?
I must be mistaken.
(*) Or the Goldman Sachs whose tax avoidance scheme was ruled out by HMRC as illegal but were let off £10m interest by the much-missed Dave Hartnett(**).
www.theguardian.com/business/201 ... -avoidance
(**) The Dave Hartnett who knew which side his bread was buttered and did "sweetheart" deals letting off Vodafone and Starbucks from the billions in tax that they should have paid.
He left HMRC to join Deloitte ... but not to advise on tax avoidance, no sirree, absolutely not. |

Apparently HMG can revoke 0.3% of the IPO value from Goldman Sachs' fees if the valuation is considered to have been not accurate enough.
I shan't be holding my breath, as that "discretionary" payment will also depend upon various subjective bits of bollox, such as the "success" of the IPO, and Vince Cable's puny grip on the situation.

And whether, in 'real life', they actually give a toss. |
