Results aren’t great yet share price is holding
Just goes to show how selling here has dried up
Question is is there buyers?
Well if its like any other vodafone updates we are downwards from here . AGM tomorrow
can't grumble at them results really I expected worse....
122p for me, not expecting a good update t'ow (hope I'm wrong...)
GLA
Yes the markets control the share price - but what Nick Read does as a CEO has a big effect on how the markets react to vodafone .
Nick Read's salary is about £3 million per annum. Very nice. Is he worth it? I don't know? Maybe not, but if vod reduced Nick Read's salary to zero, & the £3 million was retained by the company, it would have the affect of an increase in the share price, of about 0.014p per share, per year. So I think we should have a sense of perspective. Also Nick Read does not control the share price, that is the market. The only way getting rid of Nick would help the sp is if vod can find someone that the market would prefer, but as I am not an expert on these matters , for me, just doing the usual, knee jerk, sack Nick Read, would be completely pointless.
Dan you wouldn't like the Nick Reed results mate, I wouldn't want to upset you lol
Will update any more entry's tomorrow, as I'm going away until tomorrow evening
Cheers guys and good luck

If the person was any good why would they want a bigger salary . Build some decent bonuses in depending on how the Company grows and share price increases . If they can get the share price back upto the £1.80 - £2 range short term they can have as much as they like . Read keeps getting his bonuses and the share price has done nothing !!!
Never mind Nick Read, they need to change the Voda red to some other colour. IMO its nearly as stale and dated as coop blue.
So rob. Another vote for you to adjudicate please? Nick Read , Back him, or sack him? Votes in by Friday Please. Just a bit of fun, But the real question who should replace him, &would he want an even bigger salary?

Evening peeps from the Master of Predictions !
Didn't think I would be collecting ANOTHER gold medal - the trophy room is just too small to cope.
I reckon it's good fun to keep the game going - completely harmless fun - while you all wait for the SP to climb back to previous glory of £2 +
Happy to go for another prediction 130p next Friday if anyone is bothered - esp Rob as the Chief Controller.
Please to see PSN remembering that SPs are allowed to rise as it has been on a one way (Mikey-like) Ski Slope for over 4 months since I first bought.
At least VOD seems to consolidating, preparing for the big push up the hill.
Take care & GLA - C
OakLodge. If your breakeven is 1.40 excluding divi's,you must be in profit including the divi's, as the last 3 years divi's alone come to about 11p, so your break even would be 1.29. Any divi's previous to then is profit,(including divi's). Excluding divi, of course you are losing, as I am. Looks like rob gets the thumbs up though?
Fleccie
£ 140.00 !! Senior moment or bad typo I am afraid. Sorry that I have cost you millions.
Dan. Good summary of most factors explaining VOD's erratic progress. I sympathise if you have been suffering this for 20 years. No, my breakeven figure does not include divi income. Even if I added it in it still wouldn't give me a profit due to capital loss on large holding. Because of the repercussions from the pandemic and the ghastly Russia/Ukraine war we'll probably have to be patient a little while longer.
Robleo
£1.90 is still a stretch but it's pleasing that you are staying optimistic. I think you are right. Companies the size of Vodafone are unlikely to go to the wall and should deliver in the long run when the market as a whole recovers.
Friday predictions - thanks for the admin. Can you put me down for 131.5
Well done csdi .....
1.28 for moi..ty Rob
Can I have a go at 131.1
Ill go 127.85, sorry but nobody in local voda store when i walked past at 15.00hrs on Thursday!!
Rob. I think you should keep doing the Friday close please if you don't mind, as you do a great, unbiased job. I will go 1.32.6 .Have a good weekend. Cheers.
HI Soton, your welcome if it's a bit of fun then very glad to do it, i just thought i would give you guys an option to stop the prediction game for a while, if you were all bored with it, but it looks like quite a few want to continue, so it's back on again
i sold aviva from my sipp before exdiv, as i wasn't happy with the consolidation bit, but retained it in my isa, bought back again recently at 387 for my sipp, so expecting an 8.5 div next year and a good possibility of some nice growth
not sure you will ever convince Dan about the vod management ? but he might be able to convince me if my capital is returned, think everyone will just have to form their own opinion on that one
forgot to post this

Hi all....Well done csdi on winning this week getting a bit of a habit with you.....Winning that is...so this week gonna be interesting so i'll go for 134....cheers Rob keep up the good work
Has an after thought.....Sorry Dan but maybe Mikey is right what has Read done since he took over apart from taking a huge salary funded by us shareholders? If you look at what Blanc has done at Aviva since she took over is nothing short of astonishing......
I’ll have a go if that’s ok? I’ll go for £1.345
I’m thinking there will be a relief rally in the markets this week because of the grain deal, although all eyes on the AGM on Tuesday with this one.
First time in 131.20 for Friday finish
Dan csdi, may have to change his name if he carry's on like this, even his psn shares are going up, think Ronald is sunning himself on a Greek island
prediction game, i was going to cancel it for a while or maybe do it once a month or something, as we have been doing it for a while, i was thinking everyone maybe getting a bit bored with it, but i will leave you guys decide, i don't mind either way
was hoping we might have finished a bit higher today, but never mind, nothing exciting happening with any shares at the moment, we just need to get past that 130 for now
cheers all
C.S.D.I. won, Ronald cheated, the same as me, with his late entry.. Come on, C.S.D.I. doesn't win very often, so don't cheat him out of his one moment of glory. Come on Rob, play fair? Thanks for your (although late)! Great effort. Try to be on time next week though??! Joking of course.
It looks like C.S.D.I. has won!?? Must be mistake, I demand a recount. Come on, It is about time me or robleo , (The rulers of this forum after all!!?) won?
