This has to be good news for RR. Any opinions before I mortgage the dogs kennel?

This is a Motley Fool article. Motley idiot changes his mind more time than the weather forecast and is wrong just about as often. Should I buy, would I buy, here’s why I would buy, are all his lead titles followed by a load of rubbish.

Hi Solid.
Of course you are right and there will be variants here there and everywhere but the point I was trying to make was that today I see this dropping Last night I said 103 to 104 and I still believe this. I don’t want to be right. The trouble with life is that you need optimists and pessimists to get a balanced view and at the moment the pessimists are firmly in control.

Hi Smalltrader.
I’m not spreading lies I’m spreading what I have read and forming my own conclusion.
Below is the snippet of info that has scared the sh** out of me.
“The Health Secretary warned that the Indian variant is "spreading across the country" and that there had been an uptick in cases in the last 48 hours.
And while there's hope a double dose of the jab can guard against severe illness from the variant, 10 per cent of those hospitalised with it are already fully vaccinated.”

Reading between the lines from what Boris said about the possible delay to full reopening I think some people who have had the double jab are in hospital very sick with the Indian variant. It’s just a hunch but if I’m right then this share could be back to below 1.00. Fingers crossed that I’m just being an idiot.

Get it while you can . its a bad news day.

I hate to say it Red but I see 103- 104 as a likely finish. Fingers crossed that we are both wrong and have to hang our heads in shame.

I'll start this thoughtful thread with "most of this is obvious" and I'm not trying to preach, I'm just putting my thoughts to paper.
I now believe that the price for RR is fixed in the lower regions of 100 because a lot of people came into RR expecting a quick profit and then expected to move onto something new or get out quick and buy a car etc. Now these investors find themselves stuck in a situation where they can either pull out and loose money or wait until they get back to the price they are in at and then pull out . So everytime we hit preciously held ground I. E 107 110 115 120 130 etc. we will meet massive resistance, not from any secret organisations manipulating the market but from ourselves as we sell to either take a small profit or break even to move on. The only thing that can stop this cycle is to see RR making profits: selling assets and good news about variants just won't do it anymore as we are now all acclimatised to the new world of covid. The first time RR show a profit with a forward moving graph towards more profits then that's when this share will gain massive ground. I keep reading about snakes, bears, bulls etc. but I never really wanted to be part of a zoo and I like to keep things simple... RR WILL MAKE US MONEY ONCE IT'S IN PROFIT! .... sing it from the roof tops because our day will come and all those pulling out after sitting through the worst of Covid will regret their short sighted investment strategy.
Of course some are making good money from the daily fluctuations and I have to tip my hat to you but hopefully one day you will be on the wrong side of a 30% rise :)

If I were a investment advisor I wouldn't be in this chat room listening to pie in the sky forecasts from people like you who have as much idea about investing as I do. I originally came here for help and to chew the fat, but with snipers like you waiting for people to raise their heads above the parapet I've decided that perhaps it wasn't the best idea.

The reason the price is dropping is because of the news regarding travel confusion over zones etc. This news means that people like you and I are supposed to panic and sell out shares. I've held my shares through 3 lock downs one worldwide pandemic with no vaccines 3 variants of major concern and a partridge in a pear tree. I'll take the mick all day long about RR being the submarine of shares but I'll never sell after going this far.

Didn’t I read that the part of RR which is designing and implementing the nuclear mini stations will break away from the main RR business? Does this mean it becomes a separate business and has no effect on the RR share? Might be a dumb question but I figure one more won’t hurt in this forum :)

130-150 this year. Do me a favour! The only way this can happen is if the people buying Ralph Lauren miskey when they are buying shares.

This share will go up in value but in the same way a wreck of a house goes up in value if you close the doors and leave it for 5 years.

It was so upbeat that it beat down the share price. If RR were a horse someone would have to do the decent thing.

The share has forgotten up but knows down and sideways all too well.

It depends where you are in the storm. Some people on here in at 65p or so and I think they are happy little sailers but some are in at 130s and these are the ones that have taken on water and feel like the boats sinking a little bit more every day. And then we have the ones that have been in since before the virus, I can only imagine how they feel, especially the ones that didn't go with the Rights issue. Its been a very depressing share for well over a year now and we are nearly all out of excuses. Last month has all been about the Indian variant holding us back but now thats petered out I wonder what the next excuse will be. I'm staying whatever happens but I'm starting to see why so many people turn negative and jump ship.

In a sea of blue, I see RR as the little red lighthouse that other shareholders take comfort from when they see their losses are nothing compared to the battering RR takes on a daily basis.

The good news custard pies keep hitting RR square in the face but they just can't get the comedy car out of the ring.

Today... Would you rather be one of the many people who bailed last week? Or one of the people who stayed in waiting for the inevitable good news. Monday morning I think there will be a lot of ex investors trying to get back in at somewhere near where they pulled out.
