As Monsters alluded to on "Annual Report" thread a few moments ago, Battersby & Morton have indeed reduced their holdings as @ Sep 1 per the annual report.
Battersby 30,090,758 (2010) reduced to 7,029,885
Morton 17,276,985 (2010) reduced to 6,305,793
...when did they sell I have to ask.
**Equally of interest HSBC have increased their combined holdings by 7.34% to 12.02%...on whose behalf I wonder?
