Shares have flown in recent days as news of a much-needed cash injection from a significant Turkish investor has emerged. Neset Kockar, founder of holiday colossus Anex Tourism Group, secured a 6.71% stake in Thomas Cook on Wednesday before going shopping again yesterday. As it stands Kockar holds an 8.01% stake in the British business.
It’s not just that investors are celebrating the critical boost for Thomas Cook’s battered balance sheet. The £750m liquidity injection from its lenders and Chinese travel titan Fosun which was proposed last month would only give it sufficient liquidity to trade over the winter season.
