I noticed it as well although this has happened before and then petered out . Also , the volume is pretty small.
The only differences this time are that Tintsfield has been on line for a couple of weeks ( possibly good flows ? ) and the proposed community consultation.
The shorts were recently up to 35% so maybe there's a bit of covering going on ?
Your point about the temptation for STO is a good one. They must be sooo tempted to have a crack considering how much they paid previously. I can only assume that there is a master plan ( involving timing ) that they can't deviate from ?
I guess time will tell...
