    So what happens to the people who own Fujitsu shares listed on the LSE? Can they still trade them somewhere else? Or do the shares just lose their value. Genuinely interested to know.

    What does this say about the LSE?

    Fujitsu's noises sound reasonable from their perspective; given the entirely fsck'ed state of the UK (and the amazing drivel from the politicians about how well everything's going), could this be the start of a trend of corporates deciding the UK market isn't worthwhile for them? I freely admit to knowing nothing nothing useful about economics, so this a genuine question - don't read it as me saying "I think this is going to happen"!

    It makes sense to pull in and move you shared into a more protected market like the Nikkei rather than an open one like LTSE, it prevents predetors moving to make a quick profit at the longer term detriment of the business.
