Amazing how blatant the ramping/deramping is from that member. I really doubt you could influence the SP by even 0.00001% by what you write on this board.
I think his tongue is on a coiled spring.
You were talking about coiled springs last week. Chri55.
A few really big buys today

So it looks like, while it is more transmissible, the vaccine is effective against this variant. 50million people in the UK have had at least one dose. Looks like the roadmap to normality is on track .I agree with Giantsquid, I think we'll see it stuck around the 90p mark for a few weeks before creeping above 100p at end of June. However, I put in a disclaimer that I am almost always wrong. LOL.
Social distancing is expected to be axed June 21st and the Indian variant is no longer considered as problematic as first thought. Vaccine uptake is going extremely well and a recent trial of unmasked party goers at a packed out scientifically monitered venue who were not required to socially distance went extremely well with only a tiny handful (15) testing positive out of the many hundreds who attended. Life should be getting back to (close to) normality soon. With more people out and about, and assuming social distancing does indeed get axed in June, the public transport sector should see a decent boost in passenger numbers and revenue soon. The founders reducing their holdings is not really a concern as its gradual over the next decade. I still think we'll be back over £1 to £1.10+ relatively soon, probably late June or early July would be my guess.
More like a noose at this rate. Bumbled along the bottom and barely moved since news of the sell off
Please don’t go near any sharp knives!
So happy to be wrong. Though, I think if it was not for the Indian variant fears, we would be seeing some big gains today, which we are sadly not. Fingers crossed. GLA.
If the vaccines are as effective against severe illness as the government have been telling us then there will be no changes to the roadmap whatsoever. This is without doubt an attempt to encourage the 30-50s bracket to actually go and get their vaccine as the uptake amongst the young isn't likely to be all that good.
It's possible. I was surprised at Friday's rise on SGC given that an announcement was due that evening. So maybe the buyers all know something we don't. Fingers crossed. GLA.
Do you think the markets have already factored this in. Hence the ftse the last two weeks, showing drops
I suspect the stockmarket will suffer a sharp fall on the news. Bracing myself. But I could be wrong.
My opinion is the restrictions on movement within the uk aren’t affected too much with more people on staycations hopefully , it’s more abroad travel that is. Stagecoach will thrive on all the staycations people are having. If the lockdown becomes tighter after the easing of the 17th of May partial restriction lift then we may be in for a shake. Long term it should be slowly heading back to pre-pandemic lvls or maybe higher.
Any views on Johnson's announcement?
From the 17th May bus capacity is being revised and being doubled to 60 people on a double decker. Hopefully this will then start to go back to full capacity soon and the sp picks up again back to where it should be £1 plus
I think what we have witnessed with SGC over the past week is a tree shake - a mark down in price to flush out pi's panicking over the drop - meanwhile the big institutions just sit on the side lines and let it play out then move in and acquire their shares at a rock bottom price - been doing this for around 30 years and seen it sooooooo many times -
gla dyor etc
From 17 th all forward facing seats will be used on all buses in the north west
Of course this could be coincidence, but look at the maps of infections/vaccines.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-57094274
"In Bolton, the areas with the highest infections over the last week map very closely to areas with the lowest vaccination rates."
TFL has announced that from Monday the 17th of May that Bus loadings will increase from 30 maximum passengers to 60 i would think that the regional Buses will soon follow suit. Definitely a step in the right direction to getting Buses back to normal
Beware of the falling knife. Momentum is a very powerful force in investing.
Stock markets across the world have slid amid worries that US inflation is set to rise
I agree. An overreaction to Souter's retirement. The shares are good value. I've no doubt there will be bumps along the way - the current worry is the Indian variant. I was in at an average 96p, if they go below 82, I will top up. Perhaps its recovery will be slow. but I would be disappointed if they weren't over 100p by autumn, assuming no further shocks.

Looking a good time to buy at this level
I presume today's drop is the resurgence of the Indian variant and the threat it may delay easing of the lockdown.
