Owning both shares ,a lot more SGC I'm hoping for a merge as still in the red and can see the cost cutting advantages helping to get good profits longer term
Good luck gents
I think we both need to merg
Get office head count down to start with then overlaping routes sorted plenty of saveings to be made.

Or bid withdrawn.
I’m not sure what the rules are about time limits for walking away from an offer and then coming back again in the future. But unfortunately it doesn’t appear that there are investment groups circling overhead to swoop and up the ante ( but we can always wish)
My main concern is the dwindling passenger numbers, working from home and the decimation of city centres, all of which don’t do any good for sgc.
With a bit of inventiveness the mass transport business should be making plans to flourish ans pushing the positive effect bus travel has to the environment, but at the minute there’s nowhere for passengers to go !
Let’s all heathy, get a jab if you want and get back to normality.
... or will Plan B restrictions (and the Omicron threat to travel generally) counteract SGC's interim results such that NEX doesn't need to increase the offer price?.
It seems that discussions are expanding to fill the time that is available. Based on the SGC interim results NEX might be expected to increase their offer.
The actual problem is that all sides play point scoring political games supported by their respective media counterparts at the expense of swinging public opinion and personal gain. Boris will argue snow is green, starmer will says it’s blue, Nicola will say / do the opposite of Westminster to just show she’s independent… parliament questions and the constant bickering is akin to Sesame Street for embryos.
Totally agree listening to sky news now, Boris being a total w----r as usual, trying deflect the issues in the spotlight around the Xmas party last year by implementing plan B.
Politically driven, not data driven.
blame boris.
this isnt an issue with nex, this is boris fuccccing up and now trying to cover himself by imposing this stupid restricitons. this isnt about th virus this lockdown, this is about the politics.

Lost all gains everywhere from last 2 days in the blink of an eye.
F-----g sick of this now.
Media outlets are reporting Plan B (WFH) is going to be invoked tomorrow.
Somethings up, all travel and leisure suddenly tanking in last 20 mins
Jtan, I was watching the line closely yesterday too and really happy to see it close clearly over the longterm downtrend. I'm a little more cautious though and wonder if it could still pull back at this point. I've added a new downtrend line since aug which we are still under (ignoring the tails). Also, we could be entering a sideways period of consolidation now between 215 and 245 as we haven't made a new high yet.
Have a look and see what you think - https://www.tradingview.com/x/I9wy3bip/
Maybe I'm being too cautious and over analysing though. Either way, a good break over 245 at this point is the next target I reckon.
I took yesterdays rises to move a lot of holdings to cash. When Delta came along in India last April I looked at the biology realised it would not overcome the vaccine and so dismissed the increased transmissibility. Most of my recovery stacks I held have since, at best, tread water (and many have gone down). With Omicron the transmissibility looks to be even higher and the virus will, in part, overcome the vaccines.
However it plays out in terms of hospitalisation I think having really high headline cases will spook the markets come early next year.
Overall I have done OK this year so at the worst I lose out on some gains. I still have a reduced holding here and add again when things are clearer as it is a good long term investment.
I think everyone is just scared to comment at the moment! Seen these half rises all too many times :(.
Though, I did finally slice 20% of my holding today - for the tiniest profit. Only for my mental well-being in case it falls back to 215p haha
Whats up no one like the rise.
Gla holders
JG68,
I tend to look at 1, 2 and 3 months momentum and pick the top 2, then hold for 1 year.
Make or break? Dumb ****. Where do you find the comments you make? Most be whilat sniffing glue. Start reading reports on company performance before making this nonsense up
OWLS
So is fair to say that you don't try and invest near the bottom or even at a lowish price you wait until the SP is above the 200 SMA and invest with momentum and then hold for a year ?
JG68,
I have found that it is better to hold for a year. There have been occasions where I have been 50% up but I continued to hold and made 300% +.
CHRI55 is dumb. Just ignore his comments and he will go away. If he says invest in First Group, sell your house and put all your money in NEX
I read on the RR board that Aberdeen keep buying NEX, maybe someone can confirm.
Owls
I think you said before you usually hold for a year, but don't quite get why you wouldn't have banked a decent profit when they were over 300.
