Most of this will already be factored into the stock market . People already knew what kind of man Putin is, and with 200,000 troops massed on the boarders of the Ukraine, it was kind of obvious where this was going. WW2 had a similar story in the stock market, where the invasion of Poland caused a massive dip because it was unexpected, but in comparison the actual war hardly caused a ripple, because it was so obviously coming.

Good luck to everyone today, the losses will be large but things will bounce back . Fingers crossed for the people of the Ukraine .

Here we go again . Yesterday's small drop caught me out and added to the old shares adage that you should always do the opposite to what you think will happen, easier said than done because the news is telling me a 7% drop is coming, so maybe I should get my crypto money back in.. emmmm, Good luck to the people of Ukraine.

Unlike 99.9999999% on here, I tend to post off my own thoughts and not wait until the market drops or rises to form an opinion. Simple question did the market drop today? Second simple question, is anyone in the Ukraine sitting in a cinema with a bowl of popcorn?
3rd simple question, who comes on here giving it the big 'I Am' with a share price of 38p after buying in at double may be even treble that price? Cineworld is a recovery share, but please stop ignoring the obvious problems facing it, both in the short and long-term. And also let's not ignore world events such as war in Europe, because many in here ignored Covid and paid a very heavy price . There seems to be three types of people in this chat room , those that can count and, those that can't.

Turn off your computer's and stay away from your phone's, because the price drop is going to be brutal. All shares set to slide today and only the Mr Potters of this world will make money. Isn't it a wonderful life?

I've been ridiculed from pillar to post by by people on here who can't see the wood for the trees. "When we win the case" " when we win the appeal" blah blah blah, if you don't know a bad investment when your in it then do what I did and sell a big chunk, step back and it all becomes so clear. Cineworld is a badly run company that has caused it's own problems and is paying the price for many poor decisions .

Finally someone who gets it. Cineworld is the black sheep of Cinema. All the others go about their daily business of making money and staying out of the Courts, while Cineworld makes one disastrous mistake after another. But don't worry, Batman will save the day.

Another day another load of talk about some movie or other riding over the hill and rescuing everyone that bought Cineworld at much higher prices than it sits at today..

To all those that said the price wouldn't drop on Monday after Johnson's call to Putin I would like to blow a nice raspberry to you all.
Where does the dumbness end in here?
1. Covid doesn't matter
2. Litigation doesn't matter.
3. Billions in debt doesn't matter .
4. Streaming doesn't matter.
5. War in Europe doesn't matter.
Think about the last one for a minute. A War In Europe won't effect Cineworld!!!! WTF?
Oh look, Batman's out soon, that matters ..
I must be a troll or shorter because I don't agree with anyone who wears rose tinted glasses all day long . Whatever comments come after this, let's just remember that I called it right on Friday, and bet £5k and a self exile on myself. So more raspberry's to all ..

Good luck to everyone in the Ukraine, apart from Russia and China everyone in the world is cheering for you.

Not so strange . I mean think about it .. it's far easier to predict a negative based on information received than to predict a positive on a wing and a prayer. For instance if you fall off your chair I predict you will get back up. This is a negative with a predictable outcome but if you get up off your chair in joy because Batman gets a good Rotten Tomatoes rating then who knows what might happen, the share price might go up or your baby oil mightht fall off your keyboard and electrocute your tiny baby sausage.

Unfortunately for all of us - Putin, Boris and Biden have just made sure that most shares see a nice big drop on Monday .

Hi Tom231 . I would be happy if I hadn't lost so much. I left the 5k but it's a tiny proportion of what I lost. I'm rebuilding in airlines and crypto but I'm on the fence on cinema because of the court case. I think air and cinema should rise hand in hand, but air has the added bonus of not having the Cineplex shadow to contend with.

Price will get so far but lots of people are in and desperate to get out....

But again I would get a different answer in the Cineplex chat forum . Would you bet your life on it ? No, none of us would or we would buy either share and make a lot of money.

Or Cineplex go for the jugular and get rid of a market competitor while still seeing enough cash to recover costs. All this armchair lawyer BS is really annoying and anyone can make a case for anything depending on where their money sits.

Hi RusClegg
Well in answer to your question, I'm watched my airlines rise and my crypto hold . The difference between my shares and Cineworld is that I don't need a 60% rise to see a profit. How many times has this happened to Cineworld before? up one day by 7% then down everyday for a month in steps totalling double figures . I doubt many are up now and I know I got out at a far higher price than this, so re-entry is always a possibility, but the share is just too precarious for me. Once the court case is settled, then it will look far more appealing to me. But in saying all that, I wish everyone luck with this, and let's all hope that COVID doesn't decide to drop another bombshell variant.

Did my screen just flash green for Cineworld? I am mean I caught it out of the corner of my eye, but I am currently on tranquillisers since joining this share, so I'm not 100% sure. My spreadsheet has now formed a tea cup pattern which clearly shows that the kettle will soon boil.

I feel no less pain than I did sitting here watching Cineworld. Since I started this attempted rescue of people caught in the same position as I was, XRP has risen 20% but obviously it will drop again on any bad news generated by Government interventions in Crypto or Sec courtroom disruptions . But at least I now have some hope . Cineworld won't ever see a weekend 20% rise not only because Cineworld shares don't trade at the weekend but also that all its investors money is being used to hold off its creditors. People who truly believe that cinema is a good investment in a pandemic-recession will one day look back as I did and think WTF was I thinking. It was so obvious that crowded venue's would close, movies would stop producing and people would look for entertainment from home; when you add in that Cineworld would try to back out of its vast iron contracted merger contract, thinking it wouldn't face consequences, then you have the perfect recepie for disaster and none of us here seen it coming. The price is going the right way for a gamble so no doubt I will return once I see what the courts decide.

Sure XRP is a gamble, I mean they are taking on the entire USA government and judicial system,but what do you think Cineworld is? It's a gamble with no real payoff except to get your money back ..Do you look at some sort of imaginary spread sheet and see debt free, high profits with no creditor's kicking in the doors, it was only a few months ago that they were forcing staff to buy the Pick N Mix to get some cash in the tills.... Spiderman couldn't save it's share price, and Batman doesn't have a chance against the jokers that have run this company into the ground. Hell it can't even be seen as a takeover opertunity anymore. Where does a company with more debt than equity go during a pandemic in a recession?

Funinvester. Everything you say is right and I do feel bitter short this share but it's all my own fault as I did little research and handt realised that the case against cineworld even existed in the Court systems. Now I come in here as an ex holder to warn people not to listen to sentiment, I too lost many thousands on this share and I held through thick and thin, coming in here to keep warm and hear good things about my share to give me hope but in the end I had to face reality and move onto pastures new. I've also had a hard time in XRP since moving from Cine, but I have one thing that I never had in Cineworld and that is hope .. if SEC win the case against XRP I will lose everything but I would rather have that than watch my money slowly drip away day on day, driven down by bad management and shorters bending me over. No one here will listen to me and nothing said here has any effect on the markets etc but hopefully someone in my position will read this and see that everything Cineworld is not all roses. Cineworld is all but bankrupt and only the massive size of its debt is keeping it alive. It just doesn't make sense to stay in this share.
