What a joke... it never went upto 90.50 today so far. so how can you buy it..?
Excellent buy price...just bought more at 90.50....Over 8% yield...plus no doubt capital appreciation up to this date...a gift!!!....takeover at these low prices...the merger with 3 is a good sign for starters!
Looks like south african rand and vodacom falling
How many companies are valued lower now than their lowest price during Covid?
GS wins
He knows who he is
Looks like the market absolutely hated this news
This is getting pummelled
88 would be disappointing but so would missing 188. Just wait and see and pick up the div in the meantime gla
Looks like they will be carving up the intellectual property rights in Group. Not sure about a takeover but a big deal looks likely, maybe africa...
Considering we have been trending downwards all week and again today and your 97p requires a +5% uplift then i'd say your closer to 2 fat ladies than your are lucky 97
'Is it good or bad news?'
Good news for PI investors imo. I got 97 in the friday prophecy too LoL
Two fat ladies at the gate 88 or Vodafone in heaven, lucky number 97?
Is it good or bad news?
Ask/bid prices were in grey, with no Value radiobutton. Came out of Firefox, went back in, now ok.
Since 8am I've been unable to trade VOD. Anyone else have this problem?
WTAF ?
This market is ruled by hedge funders! They short or buy in billions on this to make 100s of million profit on a day..
I wish the retailers can kick them out last year by buying them... but thats illegal for regulator however hedge funders shorting big is legal!
“ Well done Vodafone, markets will like this”
Oh come on - this is Vodafone - we will end up in the red back below 90p soon
I just cannot believe it.
We’d still go down on a £2 takeover offer
It seems whatever news come out has a detrimental affect on the share price - pretty worrying really .!!!!!
At 20% the rules change. Takeover written all over it. Why put their ceo on when could be any other member of their board.
I’m just hoping it will counter the poor start to the week plus BoEs inevitable 0.25 basis point rise today. When will they realise raising interest rates doesn’t reduce this particular breed of inflation.
Procurement savings could be huge moving forwards
Intention to invest 5% additional investment will boost sp
This is a good start to the change
Well done Vodafone, markets will like this
The bit at the end was:
We extend a warm welcome to Margherita Della Valle as Vodafone's newly appointed Group Chief Executive Officer, and we have full confidence in her leadership abilities to steer the company toward growth. We are convinced that our strategic relationship will unlock opportunities for both companies to explore the swiftly expanding global telecom market and next-generation technologies".

So they get another member if they get to 20% - that more or less states they are going for that imo.
Vodafone Group Plc ("Vodafone") and Emirates Telecommunications Group Company PJSC ("e&") today announced that they have agreed a strategic relationship that brings the two operators closer together in certain aspects of their businesses.
As part of this strategic relationship, Vodafone and e& have entered into a relationship agreement that establishes e& as a cornerstone shareholder of Vodafone (the "Relationship Agreement"). This is the next phase in a strategic relationship that began in May 2022, when e& made its original investment in Vodafone.
The strategic relationship also enables collaboration across a broad range of growth areas, as e& and Vodafone can benefit from each other's respective operational scale and complementary geographic footprint. The key areas of commercial collaboration that Vodafone and e& will initially pursue include:
· In Enterprise, Vodafone and e& will explore jointly offering cross-border digital services and solutions to multi-national customers and public sector organisations. Services will include fixed and mobile connectivity, Mobile Private Networks, IoT, cybersecurity and cloud-based services.
· In Procurement, Vodafone and e& will seek to share best practice and may adopt joint procurement.
· In Carrier, Wholesale & Roaming, the two operators will work together to become the partner of choice in providing access to high-quality digital infrastructure.
· In Technology, both teams will seek to work together on a technology roadmap, including the evolution and adoption of OpenRAN.
Under the terms of the Relationship Agreement, the Group Chief Executive Officer of e&, will join the Vodafone Board as a non-executive Director (the "e& Nominee"), for as long as e& maintains its current shareholding of 14.6%. e& will also have the ability to nominate a second non-executive Director (the "Independent Nominee"), independent of e&, if its shareholding exceeds 20% (subject to certain adjustments while regulatory approvals are outstanding). These appointments are subject to receipt by e& of the required regulatory approvals. Other key terms of the Relationship Agreement are summarised below.
Margherita Della Valle, Vodafone Group Chief Executive, said: "We know e& well and I'm delighted we have strengthened our existing relationship through this strategic partnership. This closer alignment allows us to capture opportunities in our respective markets and brings additional telecoms experience to our Board."
Hatem Dowidar, Chief Executive Officer of e&, said: "Our investment in Vodafone is anchored by Vodafone Group's established position and worldwide reputation as a prominent industry player that provides cutting-edge connectivity and digital services. This aligns with e&'s vision of becoming a global telecom and technology player.
We extend a warm welcome to Margherita Della Valle as Vodafone's newly appointed Group Chief Executive Officer, and we have full confidence in he
