About 95% of the chat on here is about the cruising side of Saga, a lot of folk seem to forget about the insurance arm of the business . As you know most old folk tend to be creatures of habit, rarely changing things that they have done for years, be that banking, service providers, insurance etc.
Based on that I am sure Saga have a pretty captive market as far as both the insurance and travel side is concerned.
A couple of years ago I moved my car insurance to Saga as it was the cheapest out there, a year later the price nearly doubled so I moved on......I wonder though how many of the oldies just stuck with the inflated price.
Any idea how the insurance side of the company supports the cruise side in these difficult times? My own views here are for a doubling of the price from these levels hopefully within the next year. Good luck all and stay safe in this crazy crazy world.

Irish.........I tend to agree with you, it is just that clown George and his alias Cleverinvestor over on ADVFN that spoil it for all with constant abuse of others. To be honest I have had enough if these boards with folk constantly chucking abuse about...it is a shame as there is at times some useful info to be picked up but sadly the childish behaviour of the few spoil it for the rest. I think I will take a rest for a few weeks to see if it gets any better. I have a few busy weeks coming up with my job as a corporate jet pilot so maybe a good time to kick it into touch.....presently enjoying a few days in West Palm beach prior to bringing some clients home.
Take care and good luck with your investments.

George........I really care little about how many accounts you have but you and your pseudo named Cleverinvestor are just an annoying twat that spends their whole life chucking abuse at your fellow investors.....I say fellow investors but to be honest you probably have never invested a cent in your whole life......so please run along and stop insulting folk on here or over on ADVFN........your a pest!

Looks to me that we still have legs left for a bit more distance. Copper going crazy right now and showing no signs of retracting for a while. Let the trend be your friend.

Garshare.....I agree TUI will be one if the recovery stocks to be in, just not yet....once the rights issue shares are floated I will be back aboard big time. Why pay 450 when you may be able to pay 300 or less.

Been here before with IAG, I had to sell other shares at a bit of a loss to fund my rights at 88p. Since then they have done very well but in retrospect just after the bargain price rights were floated the IAG price fell to about 90p so anyone could have picked them up on the cheap too. I will wait now to get back in to see what happens to the price once the rights hit the market......buying at these levels now make no real sense.

Gasman......I am sure you will get your money back eventually. It is easy to get into the averaging down trap and therefore end up with everything in one stock. I was doing the same but in moderation, I still had lots of other stocks but ended up with over £250K here that still had an average of £1.40. I was happy as it was paying a healthy divi but I knew it would be a long time if ever Th at I would see £1.40 again. Needless to say last week I sold out turning a £180K paper loss into an actual loss.
Since then I have topped up in my travel sector shares as I see eventually those giving returns of 200% but it will be a long and bumpy ride over the next few years......there are some great bargains around still just a job to pick the right ones. Good luck and take care.

Lets hope Walker Crips is a Golden wonder buy for them. :-)

Topcatz.......dont spoil our fun :-)

Wow, now that is very interesting to see Wallers owning 10% of TEK. This is starting to get very interesting. All we need now is to see Tesla having a substantial holding and we are all going to have a very merry Christmas. Could we be another NCYT? 5p to £12 in a few months. Haha, hardly but it just goes to show miracles do happen.

I tried to buy CCL online at 1430.....an hour on I still cannot lig on to my Halifax sharedealing account. In the meantime CCL has risen 40p fecking useless anyone else have issues with Halifax.

Tradegurus.......my thinking too, I have taken some of my 8% profits today in Saga and moved over here. Lets see if we can match that once USA wakes up to the fact they will be going cruising again soon.

I struggled to buy first thing to top up my average of 11.5p. Ended up paying 14.68. Lets hope that can be doubled in the not too distant future. Todays RNS is just the start of a long line of upbeat news.

Gasman.......good luck with your 80-100. Not sure that will happen soon if ever, that said wtfdik as I was buying this at 180 and all the way down. Bailed last week with a huge loss. Topped up my travel sector shares so I can only live in hope, but to be fair it is just a lottery right now, donI pick red or do I pick black. I have picked some dogs over the years but did not expect CNA to be the biggest of them. If you got in recently you should do OK but for me sadly it was time to move on. Anyway, good luck and take care.

Gasman......rights issue suits me.......I picked up a shed load of IAG rights at 88p a few months ago....nearly doubled now. TUI will be the same, a RI was expected by the market so happy with that. As I said many times before, lets look back where we all are in a year......anyway you are distracting from your investment here in CNA, good to see a Director shelling out £161 to pick up a few shares, he must be confident :-)

Harvey, ......you having a laugh? £161

H-hi, lets hope you are right......Ammu was calling me a clown for selling CNA at a big loss last week.( nice person that he is) I live in hope of CCL, SAGA, IAG, and TUI recovering those losses before I am too old to enjoy the money!
That just was not going to happen here in my view.
Best wishes and good luck.

Can anyone put a spin on the latest cash offer update? I am starting to get a bit fed up here. Since the offer was made we have stagnated around the 640 mark whilst copper has been flying. Since the offer came to the table copper shares in ANTO are up over 20% in that month. I would have been better off taking the money and jumping ship even if it meant losing 25% on my present holding here.

It is simple, just buy at this price and forget for a year. I am fed up with stressing myself about small jumps and falls. I think we all know where we will be in a year and it will be well north if this. Covid has been crap for us all but has also presented some great buying opportunities that don't come around too often. Buy today and sit on your hands relaxing for the next year.

I see it as positive news for the Company but you really need to buy and forget. I think we all know where we will be by this time next year. It is just a question of buying then sitting on your hands for a year.
