It's called investing, come back in 12 months.
The rampers think the more they talk and silence criticism, the more the share price will rise.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
All the recent short-termers betting on debt refinancing are exiting now.
All good words but in the meantime this one continues to go down
I think stroll cares more about results than actually pulling the strings. He'll of had to make Hallmark certain promises to get him. All the hard work has been done now, the path is already set, stroll is probably getting ready and looking forward to letting hallmark do his thing and watch the money role in.
Personally, i can't see Stroll, just allowing some-one else to run the show.
Stroll holds and owns enough of the strings to continue to operate as the puppeteer.
Will Hallmark jump to his tune.
Time will tell, but no doubt a lavish salary will buy him for some time.
Excellent news and should really enable this to deliver. You don’t hire this guy to not let him do his thing.
According to one insider evo spoke to, one of Adrian Hallmark’s conditions of accepting the role was to have full autonomy over the brand’s future products and strategic direction.

Another slap in the face for C26....I think he was saying that no one would want to take the job on....
Appointment of New Chief Executive Officer
· Adrian Hallmark, experienced ultra-luxury automotive leader, appointed new Chief Executive Officer
· Former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Bentley Motors to succeed Amedeo Felisa, who will stand down as Chief Executive Officer of Aston Martin
· Hallmark to commence position no later than 1st October 2024
The Board of Aston Martin today announces the appointment of ultra-luxury automotive leader Adrian Hallmark, who will join Aston Martin as an Executive Director of the Company and its Chief Executive Officer no later than 1 October 2024.
Hallmark, aged 61, will join Aston Martin from his recent position as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Bentley Motors, a role he has fulfilled since 2018. He brings more than 25 years of highly successful senior automotive experience from the US, Europe, and Asia with companies such as Bentley, Porsche and Volkswagen.
Ensuring a smooth transition in leadership, Amedeo Felisa will remain as Chief Executive Officer until Hallmark takes up post. Felisa will continue to oversee the introduction of Aston Martin's exciting new products, including the launch of its third next generation sports car later this year, completing its class-leading, new front-engine portfolio following the successful launches of DB12 and Vantage.
Commenting on the new appointment, Lawrence Stroll, Executive Chairman of Aston Martin, said:
"When Amedeo was appointed CEO, I spoke of him leading a new phase of growth and development. Two years on, we have delivered on that promise, as we near completion of our thrilling new product portfolio and move closer to our vision of becoming the world's most desirable, ultra-luxury British performance brand.
"I'd like to personally pay tribute to Amedeo, recognising not just what he has achieved at Aston Martin but throughout his long and distinguished career at the very top of the ultra-luxury automotive industry. I am pleased that Amedeo will remain in post until Adrian joins and will continue to oversee the launch of our upcoming products, with our breathtaking line-up of new front engine sports cars a fitting legacy to his time leading the Company and its product strategy. We look forward to celebrating Amedeo's contribution to Aston Martin's recent success before wishing him the very best.
"In Adrian Hallmark, we are attracting one of the highest calibre leaders not just in our segment, but in the entire global automotive industry. Complementing our world-class leadership, Adrian will bring to Aston Martin unrivalled experience in both the ultra-luxury and British manufacturing sectors to progress our strategy and continue recent momentum."
Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings Plc is expected to appoint Bentley Motors Limited Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Adrian Hallmark as its new CEO, the Financial Times reported on Friday, citing two sources with knowledge of the matter.
According to the report, Hallmark is set to join Aston Martin later in the year to succeed the current luxury sports car manufacturer's CEO Amedeo Felisa.
Volkswagen Group's Bentley officially announced on Friday that Hallmark will leave the company "at his own request and by mutual consent," adding that "he is preparing for new tasks outside the Volkswagen Group with immediate effect."
