If 3 exit UK telecoms, VOD has the opportunity to pick up a share of their 10.3m subscribers which would lift the revenue growth curve..

"On the free cash front I see that India is playing up again … Cash-strapped Vodafone Idea (Vi) has paid only 10% of its licence fee dues for the March quarter"
Vodafone wrote down their India investments to zero years ago, I suspect Vodafone will be reluctant to direct capital, external to India, into the company. If Vodafone have any remaining India assets separate from VI, they may sell them and direct any funds into VI, but VOD have probably already divested of all their India assets. Without actually making a lot of noise about it, Vodafone appear to have washed their hands of India, the probable reasons are Vodafone's history of litigation with the Indian Government, who retrospectively changed laws to extract money from Vodafone, and the actions of the India government/regulators to give Jio a massive leg up at the expense of other Telecom players. It appears the India Government saw Vodafone as a cash cow, who they could milk at will.
Vodafone still have a shared ownership in VI, along with Aditya Birla Group and the Indian Government, so should VOD decide to direct more capital into VI, the other shareholders would also need to contribute.
I like your optimism xxxAcc & I sincerely hope you are correct with your guesses.
On the free cash front I see that India is playing up again … Cash-strapped Vodafone Idea (Vi) has paid only 10% of its licence fee dues for the March quarter and sought more time from the government to clear the balance 90% in multiple tranches.
I hope this doesn’t spell dividend woes.
For all the shorters who have just joined us
News of Spanish arm sale, up 5%-10%
News of Italian business sold, up 10-20%
Don’t forget from April when prices rise 15% put profits will rise.
Merger, deal savings could be worth billions
The list goes on….
As of 28/04/23:
The short interest on Vodafone is 0.05% of float. This is a reduction from 0.06% reported in March 23.
Never mind the erel bit, he's the first four letters, rymes with tock.
He can't take it when someone thinks Vodafone is dog shid because he bought loads at a much higher price. Lol
There are lots of extreme views on this share lately negative and positive, if only we knew for sure which way this is going north or south then we could all be very rich, just keeping my fingers crossed that something can push this north of £1 as nothing has moved it so far, i will just hold onto my cautiously optimistic views for now
gla
Thinking of going short on Vodafone because of all the debt which is never a good thing.
Anyone got any thoughts regarding shorting?
I understand that the debt is about 55 billion squid or something like that.
******* e r e l did you mean? lol
strutting about like a chicken. a ****erel probably.
I feels that Danny boy struts about like a chicken when he finks he has outdone Broadsword

It says this will happen in phases throughout the remainder of 2023, starting with Hull, Oxford and Greater London (in June) before rolling out across the South of England.

I also had a lot of Vodafone shares in 2006. Think the price was about £1.25. I did not win or lose on that occasion. Over.
Thank you iggy for that, clever you? but if you judge on a spelling mistake, you are just missing the point. Get a lyfe!! By the way, he bought at 1.18 & sold at 1.21, in case any of you missed that for the 5th or more time, or would you like proove of that??
Take risks in life. Win big or lose all.
“If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’
Wisebear - I bought Vodafone last summer at £1.18 and sold at £1.21 just before the big plunge. I am often tempted to buy down here but as yet have not had the courage/possible stupidity...
