bobbins, I appreciate that, Sunday would be better for me, should you wish to unburden yourself... Have a good evening all.
it's all a matter now how quickly governments get themselves out of the hole. Media has a big part to play here. If they are cynical, it will take months, if they are supportive it'll take weeks. If they turn on the experts, it will take just days!
Wasn't trying to be patronizing, don't need to try apparently :)
Bobbins, apologies I got sucked into justifying myself because blue was helpfully but slightly patronising suggesting I take my money and run. But you are right, I hate that the board is full of people talking about personal grievances . I did kinda think weekend can go a bit off topic. But i would rather have a business forum where you can easily find relevant news and info so I will continue to keep on topic. In that vain interesting to se the M*tly F**l has reversed its editorial line of trashing IAG :-
https://www.fool.co.uk/2022/01/15/if-this-happens-i-think-the-iag-share-price-could-take-off/
Sorry for swearing- but occasionally m*tly f**l can act as a useful barometer.
fordm - would give you my personal backstory. but wouldn't want to reduce to tears, especially on a Saturday evening.
bobbins2, of course it's IAG related, it's about one persons struggle with IAG SP and personal goals..... (I threw up in my mouth after I wrote that), but it's serious and no banter attached, so it's ok.
Danphonic - please stay on point. No idea what your personal situation/history has to do with the IAG share price. This board is purely for discussion abut IAG price.
Lol blue, one thing you need to understand is I am quite aware that I am gambling. I repeatedly see both sides and have set realistic expectations.I just used my savings on succesful fertility treatment and now i am taking a punt in an attempt to expedite home ownership. Turning 20 to 30 for me will be a wildly successful result, I am currently on track for this if we get to 200 . With no bank of mum and dad to call on , I am trying to make my future possible. If it doesn't work then nothing changes - I had nothing and will continue to have nothing. This is the reality that the enterprising 'buy to letters' have created in the UK. I value ALL the investment advice, but dont need life lessons because I am 40 and have built myself up from a very meagre start point.
Danphonic If you can best thing to do is to put a limit order at 2.35p , leave this forum and forget IAG for 6 months
"A shock good result "
Sounds like you are falling in love with the share and daydreaming a little. All the information to date, omicron, has ruled out a shock good result. Believe me, there would be a pile of RNSs already leading towards that.
If you want to daydream, find a sub-penny share and buy half a million or so on a mad 'everything on 32 red' moment and sit on it until it either disappears delisting or you cash in a 10 multibagger. Honestly, play get rich quick with a couple of hundred in one of those so you don't end up gambling on false hopes with the 'real' stocks.
Bit of friendly advice that has a great deal of merit.
I think this is the first time I can realistically see 180 in two weeks time. I've talked truthfully about my investments and always tried to rampy posts be they negative or positive. This time I think the combined effect of countries and governments opening and lifting will get this SP to 180 on a wave of optimism.
The real question is what happens after. Should I sell at 180 - would about 6 grand up. Or hold on for good results which is iess likely even average results could see us get back 200. A shock good result could see us move higher still. My focus in next few days will be study the signals coming out of IAG
Switzerland will decide in within the next week whether to now call this an endemic and stop using the word 'pandemic'. The finance minister said this is costing the economy too much and cannot sustain it any further without irreparable damage.
Basically they will vote for it and it will pass. However they did say that the will keep some measures in place until March, these measures were to end at the end of Jan. This is to appease their neighbours mostly!
EU will follow soon afterwards.
Boris will scrap b restrictions on 26th ,
UK will set an example for the rest of the world how to live with covid and will be one of the very first major economy to remove most covid restrictions
Also a politics victory and strong marketing campaign for Boris , as mentioned before xmas he didn’t waste this chance and push uk into a hard lockdown .
Tide will turn and will be a domino effect for the rest of the world
Italy , France even USA major states have already passed omicron peak. You will see positive changes will be rapidly
Assuming these positive news will push SP 1.80p + soon
Afterwards some travel scheme and positive financials will push sp 200p +

One important note, the gods of TV will never accept responsibility. They set the narrative but as the backlash gathers momentum and the conclusion that most of the lockdowns had no impact at all, you can bet the media finger will point elsewhere. I mentioned the other day, the collapse of the Italian health system at the start of the pandemic caused the doomsday reaction elsewhere and it is mentioned in the article. Whilst the gods of TV might be able to hide from responsibility for the earlier part of the pandemic, they can't hide from omicron.
The questioning is slowly breaking through, like the Rees Mogg comments. But TV has a lot to cover up here and stories like party-gate are a perfect diversion. I remember the culture right across Whitehall, especially in the House and Downing St was that there was frequently 'hospitality' laid on because what looks like after work socialising was anything but due to the weird hours of government. Some would say work extended to various bedrooms too!!!! And have you noticed what has been missing up until today? I can tell you now ALL the other political parties have identical gatherings and always have. The opposition parties shenanigans have been very much swept under the carpet, until today. I have posted before, people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. It's taken a long time to see some of the other sides playtime.
We should be concentrating on getting all restrictions opening up and ending lockdown forever. Not be distracted by a well crafted presentation of 'parties' at Downing St by an embittered ****** who thinks he is some sort of king maker.

So, it is now completely understood, omicron is mild and has little impact on health care systems. But all around the world the panic knee-jerk lockdown continues. It is as if people do not want to hear that it is safe to let it rip and move to herd immunity. It is a paralysis of leadership, rabbits caught in media camera head lights. It is part of what is clearly a pan global problem with all democratically elected leaders terrified of the gods of TV disapproving of pandemic strategy. The one-sided polarisation of the US media [bar Fox] has been exposed due to the existence of Trump and the social media belatedly 'outed' as a message manipulator as it finally went authoritarian in public banning various high profile people. I am very surprised at just how far leaders and politicians worldwide cower to their local media TV gods. This is important because we need a fast and rapid exit to restore, especially, aviation to pre pandemic norms. But there are still countries extending lockdowns and even introducing new extensions!!!
Yep BB , so called experts cost a lot money but also some opportunity for opportunists to make some quick bucks
It might be true that first strain of Covid and delta were much more dangerous
Open position for shorters (around 4%) we might never know the exact reason ….
Might be for tax purposes , even might be for money laundering or simply chasing profit…
There might be many complicated structures and calculations behind
A bit off topic but as far as I know most famous football clubs (chealsea - abromovic) ,20% of the retails shops on the high streets ,even the biggest fashion brands used for money laundering purposes
Interviews on R4 this morning, light weight cross examination of the 'experts' who are still playing the game that everything they say is gospel. But there were a couple of direct questions, 'what went wrong with your predictions'. They are still trying to play it was impossible to know game, despite the SA data. The way deaths are counted is also being revisited.
Whilst the experts are going to get away with most of 2020 and early 2021 lockdown advice, it gets more and more difficult as 2021 progresses. Then omicron! The experts are going to be turned over. Those gongs were given too early.
Speaking on BBC Radio 4's Today programme, Mr Drakeford denied the move to relax restrictions was a "U-turn", adding: "Not at all. It's really the opposite of that.
What we do in Wales is we follow the science, we follow the data. We make difficult decisions when that is necessary."
He added: "What we are seeing is a very rapid decline of the number of cases in Wales. Last Friday in Wales it was 2,300 cases per 100,000 of the Welsh population, today, only a week later, it is only 1,200."
