I doubt it very much.

Who could afford to buy Diageo?

No one.

Having said all that I bought a bit too early lol...still might have a bit more to fall before it comes back

I've held Diageo since I first bought shares...they were actually the first shares I ever bought. I've added a few every time they've dropped...especially on the Covid slump. They have always been in profit for me and any dividends I automatically buy more. Today was another big top up for me as it looks like a huge over reaction from the market. I sold other shares to buy more as I know there's one thing that will always sell well throughout depression or good times...booze.

Personally it's only been 3 years. Still a long wait ahead I feel.

I hold shares in 25 companies, stocks, etc and every one of those is up today...bar one. But I have to hold Vela in case all the rumours and stories end up being true ....something tells me not.

Why would anyone sell shares to the value of 71p ? It probably cost more in electricity to make the trade. Bizarre

Does anyone know what has caused this today there's no RNS to affect it

I've held these shares for a few years now and never been in profit with them...I doubt I ever will now

Same as we can trade on US markets into the evening - if you're with the right broker

It not if

Yes I know that...if wasn't me that brought it up

10 mins US open now and as suspected 0% change. I don't know why people persist with this easily disproven prediction...something to say I guess.

I've never seen the US market opening affect any UK SP...let's see opening now....

More worryingly is this sentence " a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern"

Does Vela still hold a position in this which posted a new RNS today for it's final results. Basically less losses ...so that's good...I think

Maybe I read it wrong...but no matter what they bought and when it is definitely lower than the SP is now despite 100%+ gain on the last year.

Those ones but then they bought more at 60p..they now hold just shy of 600,000 according to their website.

Ahh 2021 at 60p a share

When did Vela buy in?

Yes but that would assume that Vela are on the ball with the market and can pick good entry and exit points...I can't see much evidence historically at that. My portfolio is doing poorly af the moment too but at least I'm overall still running at a profit and I don't do it for a job...if these were running a shop they'd be sacked.
