News of vaccine is not far and whoever holds/buys from this position will hit gold later this year/early next year. Once news is out, this share will have the legs to outperform the market compared to any other share, given their better financial position after the rights issue. Daily fluctuations will always be there, its better to turn off your computer and check on a monthly basis.
whataclown, the UK government will not nationalise any company that is solvent , IAG is nowhere near becoming insolvent, when previous nationalisations have happened they were to companies that had no cash and were insolvent. You have even predicted that a 2nd rights issue will be needed, this kind of contradictory comment is what earns you the name of whataclown, you think nationalisation might happen and also at the same time another rights issue will be needed and that you will buy when it gets to 80p and now 50p, you will never buy IAG.
@whatamess,
I wanted to average IAG now but looking at share price it doesn't look like it will hold 100 . In your opinion how likely this will touch RI price (not far off) and deep bottom of 50p.
While we leave the argument if averaging is good or bad, just wondering if I better wait to average this!
WAM no one has asked you to post 300 times a day on here every day, but there's no stopping.
You're like a pair of teenagers throwing insults because you're both desperate to look right on a messageboard. Cringeworthy.
I wouldn’t be dishing out economics lectures if I was 95% invested in gold lollll
My investment is considerably smaller than most here but the effects of the virus has been sector-wide (or world-wide to be more accurate) so can only imagine public sentiment changes on any whiff of vaccine news. Sad reading people jumping out on £10-20k+ losses but hey they turn out to be the smart ones if they manage to buy it cheaper and/or more shares with same money. I've been consistently drip feeding on lotta dips as I don't have the guts nor money to go all in. Happy days just watching the prices on green days which are few and far between. Good luck to all holders. Sorry for the ones holding from the absolute top esp if cash-strapped and crystallising paper losses.
Embarrassing the pair of you.
Madrid lockdown is just another headline as is with all the other headlines which are yet to be confirmed - equally Iberia is about 20% of IAG portfolio (BA is about 55-60% - from the 2019 FY Accounts) - also I think it's a bit of an overly simplistic point as other airlines fly in/out of Madrid and their SP impact is not as bad
either way it's just opinions which have little impact on the SP - the market decides what it's worth regardless of fundamentals - DYOR :)
Compared to other airline stocks IAG is down an extra 10-13% over the last 2 weeks (that's compared to other UK, EU, and US airlines) - that's out of sync with the wider market, and I suspect will be down to the RI's physical placing - once closed I would expect the price to recover more back to the levels we're seeing with other airlines (around the 105p mark) - DYOR :)
I agree with Clarke. All travel stocks are going nosedive. Some companies may go bust in next few months but those who survive will give 200-300% return in next 2-3 years for sure.
I am invested in IAG and tempted to sell and buy at even lower prices but I think it is too late to sell, it may fell down more 10-20% but that would only mean another fall of 4-5% on my original price ( I am currently sitting at 32-33% loss ).
If this illness is still around, my probability to die from covid is more than IAG going bust. Therefore, I would wait for the sector to recover because people may say it will take 5 years to recover but I disagree.
People are dying to go on holidays, travel again business class, eating out every week and so on and they will make the most of it at the first available opportunity. The sector will see a boom like never before. And if does not then what will we do with all the money anyways if we cant spend on travel and pubs :)
The decline in share price since the rights issue is very disappointing, but is largely reflected across the whole of the tourism sector. I am also invested in Easyjet, Carnival, Dart, Whitbread, IHG and many other tourism stocks and all were battered over the last couple of weeks. This is lagely due to one thing, government restrictions. Virtually every country is now quarantined. It is nothing to do with consumer demand for flying, it is to do with consumer demand not to be quarantined against their will for 14 days just for travelling.
In my view, this situation cannot last and is like a tidal wave being held back. Rapid testing or a vaccine will break it.
In a years time, people will look back at this time of maximum pessimism, maximum quarantine but very close to vaccine/rapid testing announcements and wonder why they didn't buy in at 90p.
Rarely has something so seismic for markets, namely, the return to normality, been so predictable and profitable.
46% down on this. Not a good feeling knowing we coughed up 88p/share whilst the sp now just over. It'd be one helluva sight for retail/hospitality sector on the vaccine news. Can't wait
'' I am probably about 25% down since Covid which isn’t that bad .'' 25%? oh you lucky lucky boy. Me? 50+
And you pal. I am still 2 share Ted, Nex and BT, with a small holding in IAG just to keep an eye on it, I am probably about 25% down since Covid which isn’t that bad I suppose. You are right Pal, it is just ****ing Luck, but when the dust settles IAG and BP will come good and the day will come when once again we can crowd the bar and talk ****e.
'' What are you doing on this BB? BBB jumping into aviation Big Oil'' lol just keeping an eye on you Teddy. You were 2 share Ted before and now any share Ted.There are not many on the boards making money Teddy,and the ones that are are just lucky.All the bull sh####rs boasting about trading BP are now trapped into being long term holders. All the best Teddy from poverty stricken Baz.
@BIgBadDaz: Fortunately I saw the writing on the wall and sold pre RI, I jumped into BP and lost another 10% which could have been a lot worse with Bernard the tree hugger ( What the **** is happening with that share) ? My saving grace was discovering Nex which saved my arse. What are you doing on this BB? BBB jumping into aviation Big Oil
Must be ****ed.
Teddy,have you any money left?
The MM’s are doing their best to promote this share but the PI’s are not having it. Looking likely to break the 90p resistance and if it doesn’t happen today it will be certainly Monday/Tuesday that it will drop to the RI price. It must be unpleasant knowing that shares will be credited to your account at a higher price than the SP, if that does happen there will be a lot of shares hitting the market on the 7th/8th. The next two weeks will be critical and if there is no vaccine news sub 70p is definitely on the cards. A vaccine statement will come before Christmas the fact that most of us won’t be vaccinated until Easter is not important. When the good news comes it will pop but there are lot of us on the sidelines waiting for our moment and that is not too far away.
