Filtronics shoots to new High of 460p on massive trade in its shares,

Mark Watson-Mitchell - 19.05.2026

By lunchtime on Tuesday 19th May, the shares of Filtronic (LON:FTC) had seen a massive trading volume spin them up to 460p at their best.

Now back to 455p as I write, but still up over 10.5% on the day.

Even so that is a significant price rise since the start of May, when they were standing at just 287p - that is over a 60% uplift thic month alone.

Some 7.5m shares have been traded so far today - a mega number!

That is now over twice the Target Price of 232p that I set at the start of February.

Some longer-term holders have been 'top-slicing' their holdings of late, understandably in the face of such a substantial price movement in such a short period.

The big question for investors is whether this price push will continue?
