Our latest Investing Matters Podcast episode with QuotedData's Edward Marten has just been released. Listen here.
Morning Ian
Was born in Hackney and Southend was my old stomping ground but that was in the 70s had great times in the Kersal
Been there a couple of times since moving up north but it amazes me what people think is acceptable behaviour nowadays
Have a great day all and enjoy life

Morning all
Hope that it’s warm enough for you all and managed to get some sleep 4.5 hours for me :(
KPMG were brought in here for a good reason, they are experts in the field of tax on big deals.
https://tax.kpmg.us/services/mergers-acquisitions-tax.html
If you follow the link and read some of the things that they work on the BOD would not have got them involved if there was not a deal that raised tax implications
There are more ducks lining up if you follow the RNS’s
Have a great day all and enjoy your life
Just off to gym

OSF
just waiting for the line, I am a lawyer and EUA has paid for all my college
Sandy
This is possibly Kira as same incessant negative posting and the better than thou attitude
Morning Pete & all
I am sure the bod want this done and dusted so they don’t keep getting grief from the PI’s who have no patience or understand the market
How’s the ankle???
I am doing more work round my sons today so no sunshine for me but will have some alcohol tonight
Have a great weekend all and keep hydrated and above all else enjoy life
ATB
Les
Please stop replying to them, that’s what they want so they can get the post removed again, just ignore and filter
Evening all
Very good post, as has been said on here many times if the RF starts taking assets then there would be no investment in RF for years as II's and PI's would just pull out and sell up.
Have a good night and weekend all and be careful in the sunshine

Hi Sandy
Nothing surprises me with this anymore, I think we have all become hardened to the games being played, I remember last week when we got near the dizzy heights of 7s and then the order must have been filled so back we are, the 3/5/7 % swings are a traders paradise. I have not got the ballz to try because as as soon as I tried the RNS would land, if I did not have bad luck I would have no luck at all :) :)
Have a great day all enjoy the weekend and stay hydrated

Morning all
So another week gone and closer to the AGM, will we get any news before then only the Bod know and we will just wait for a red dot
This will be played as much as possible till the news lands so just sit tight and expect this to be drongo central till then
Have a great day and enjoy your life
ATB
Les
Has become what ???
This is still for sale, the assets are still in the ground, the companies are still round the table.
It is just yours and many expectations that this would be done and dusted quicker than it is taking, we all wanted it done by now but it will be done when it will be done so not worried
Layla
I agree that the RF would not take anything or stop trading with most countries as they still need investors to put money into the country, if II's or PI's stopped dealing with the RF then that would put them back years.
Only IMHO as I do not follow much politically

If you have been here for 3 years and still hold a few then you must be on a free ride so if you are unhappy then sell and move on, I cannot see how you can say this has evaporated as they would have to RNS if that had happened.
the assets are still in the ground and there are buyer(s) at the table as UBS, DLA, WA and now KPMG are still there working away

Les
Pete, the skip is for the rubble from the kitchen refurb and anything else that I can get in it. take care of the ankle.
Little Red, overexposure is a personal thing depending on your risk strategy, I am lucky that if it all goes I will still have a roof over my head and still have holidays, if it comes in that's another story, have other ones in my portfolio so would not be wiped out completely.
Have a great day all and enjoy life.

Morning Pete/Sax &all
We might get an RNS before the AGM only with a few bits so they can say to any questions that has been answered “read the RNS’s, “ as they will know that there will be a lot of unhappy people there,
Skip being delivered today so will be using the wheelbarrow all day nice hot day for that!!!!!
Have a great day all and keep hydrated

Morning OfficeCat & all
This has been a longer journey than anyone could ever have imagined but we all know that it will happen as the world needs what we have.
The Bod have more skin in this than anyone on here so I would sooner trust them than some of the drongos on here
I have always found that being positive is so much nicer and easier to get things done, the great British spirit and all that
Have a great day all and enjoy your life
Thanks to all that ticked my removed post and to Mike56 my heart goes out to you

Morning Pete & all
That’s an old film, “my left foot” :)
You will have to get one of those carts if you need to
Spoke to the oncologist last week and we might be able to get abroad September if the scan end August is ok so here’s hoping
And it’s true Enjoy life as I have now learnt that anything can happen to you at anytime you least expect it to this is not a practice
Have a great day all

Shares to buy
I agree that this is worth a lot more than 4.4 that’s only about 86pps, my original guess 2 years ago with Ian was 1.85 and we have a lot more now so anything is possible
Olliebob
That’s a very interesting article and could be why there has been delays as they have both been fighting over us
Have a great day in the sunshine and enjoy your life

Les
Morning Tilly & all
Maybe he pulled out so he can buy us and it would not cost him 44bln I would be happy with 10% of that
Have a great day all and enjoy the sunshine while it lasts

Morning Tygra
I thought exactly the same I only have my council pension as I am only 63 so a wait till my state kicks in but I have enough savings and not many expenditures and no cash calls so can wait as long as it takes for this.
The sooner the better in one way so that the wife can enjoy it as well but we can still have holidays just not 4/5 star so no problem
Doing my sons kitchen today and the weekend so no chance of enjoying the sunshine
ATB
Les
Morning all
Can we carry on with another blue day today ????
We know that the day to day sp is false to what this is worth but it’s a nice feeling seeing blue in your portfolio so let’s hope that we get another good feeling today. We are due lots of news that can land anytime so today is as good as any.
Another scorcher for the next few days so enjoy the sun and enjoy life
