On here is great. I have no doubt the new CEO, Margarita will pull out all the stops to make this the company it should be. I am writing a positive email to her as soon as I can. Feed back from investors is often welcome. She has already made a start on getting the house in order. If you feel it's a strong buy, click it on your post. Strong buy all day long.
Cheers Roofer

The market sentiment is a lottery at the moment but I’ll go for 99p this week but think £1.80 is very possible after a couple of spin offs. When debt is down to sub £10bn I can see market cap between £50-£100bn again. Big dividends along the way make this a no brainer and 40% of my holdings now.
Not too good at this - I'll go 98p please
I am thinking of buying on Tuesday, If that is ok with the Gutter? so £1+ by Friday will do me.

I would be lying if I said I'm disappointed they went internal again for a CEO. She may well be very good, but it would perhaps have been nice to have broken the ice on the 'culture pond ' of VOD figuratively speaking...
due May 16th. Ex div normally around the end of the month or 1st of june if they declare a div
Next friday 97p for me please

Now we need to wait for a CFO!
"Their offer price would only need to match highest price paid by them in previous 12 months. If they wait till Sept they only need to offer 110p. Would you take it?"
There's a huge flaw in your thinking. Atlas 2022 Holdings Limited would have to accumulate another 16% of Vodafone stock to initiate a takeover attempt and under those circumstances the price would increase significantly as market speculators mark up the price, to reflect the valuation of the assets vs liabilities. I can guarantee the price would climb significantly above 110p under those circumstances, probably somewhere between 160p and £2.
As far as Vodafone going forward, they've telegraphed that they're refocusing on certain target "Core Markets" since about 2017/18. Assuming they stay independent, I imagine they'll sell of various assets over time and use the money to pay down the debt, and strengthen their position in target markets. To be honest it wouldn't surprise me to see VOD being involved in a mega merger, with a US giant like Verizon, which is something I've speculated about previously.
Their offer price would only need to match highest price paid by them in previous 12 months. If they wait till Sept they only need to offer 110p. Would you take it?
Probably not. VOD can't be taken over at these levels as holders won't accept a realistic price, and buyers won't offer what holders think it's worth.
Now with Marg at the helm it seems unlikely the div will be cancelled so the asset drain will continue so those divs can get paid. It is 'untakoverable'.
Every % increment has to be notified. There are not many shares available for them to buy more than 1 or 2 % at a time. So it will be a gradual increase with notifications
Guttersnipe, it's up to everyone to make there own decisions, I agree with sotonspike lgen and aviva have been good reliable dividend payers, but also with Fleccy's views, there are also a lot of investors who think buying vod under a £1 could be rewarding, I expect we will get more clarity on that in the coming weeks
The reality is nobody knows so keep an open mind
I think that’s the end game.
E& voted to appoint a ceo that they can work with or agree with. I think E& is going to buy whole of vod or a big chunk of it. Buy and wait….
" I'm wondering if i should buy Legal and General."
You're free to invest where you wish, it's your money and as long as people Do Their Own Research and are happy to invest in Vodafone, they're also free to invest where they please. How do you know VOD wont be a good investment for people coming in now? One big difference between VOD and LGEN, is that outside players are running the slide rule over Vodafone's business and assets. Vodafone's is certainly a more exciting play than LGEN and with such a low share price probably not much riskier.
