Gold is dropping as the doller gets stronger. Rrs is reporting next week I think. Let's see what that brings.

A normal market reaction to a company doubling their profit from last yr .lol. in this market, seems if you get 3% profit, you'd be best off taking it.

Has gone up 4% which is merited on the results. For once, market pushing sp up on good results. Can see it hovering around 550 for a while though, there's much uncertainty re. Poo ATM. 9p to knock off next week too when goes ex div. Shouts of £6 a little premature just yet IMHO though. We'll see. Great run company giving good divi though.

One article in one 'newspaper' . Don't worry about it.

The offer is an all share offer. 6.128 barrick gold shares for each Randgold you hold. If you keep an eye on Barrick SP on NYSE, when it goes up, rrs has to too because everyone knows that if you do some maths you can work out the relative price for randgold. Today , Barrick isn't doing so well after reporting to market , beat consensus revenue estimates but there was a big write down on one of their mines. Basically ,look at Barrick SP multiply it by 6.128 and then divide by the GBP/USD exchange rate. If RRS got left behind, so to speak, everyone would pile in, knowing what it would be worth when the deal goes through at end of the year. There may be a bit of a sell off from people who don't want to hold NYSE listed shares nearer the time however if you did hold and come end of March, a no deal brexit sends the GBP down it'll in turn increase the value of your barrick shares. It's all bit of a gamble. Hope that helps.

Touched£3 couple of weeks ago. Our local m and s store is always pretty busy although have to say we only use it for groceries not clothing. Nothing wrong with the clothing mind. Bought a nice jacket last yr. Good quality. M and s will survive IMHO, and be all the stronger for the weaker ones going under.

Gold rising, Barrick looking like opening up, don't they report to market tomorrow? Let's hope for good news and maybe a push through 70.

Sell em now. Every time I do that and praise myself at £200 in half an hr, it goes down and I kick myself! I bought £10k at 1323 which I thought was the dip at the time, could have made £350 in a few hrs but held as I thought it was on way back up. Look where we are now! In these markets, unless your in for the long haul (excuse pun) , and the divi income, then if you can make a quick few hundred, do it!

Scanning down my watchlist, thought this was Bovis! Blimey, why the drop? ( Bovis gone down too!) Hope my dividend shares will keep paying coz I'm well under with most of em on a capital basis. Eeeek.

If you want to sell it's up to you however I really think you should look long term. They are always ranting on about needing more housing. This is a good company paying a fantastic dividend. Wait it out would be my call. We'll see £26 plus again in the next yr, IMHO, however brexit goes. Population ain't getting any smaller and this ain't a tin pot company. GL my friend.

For ya. Hold AIM long enough and you'll get diluted to hell.

My mrs is a midwife, sees it all the time. Multiple kids to multiple dads. All on benefits. Why should someone on benefits be able to get a 50% interest rate from the govt for saving. Some on working tax credits actively refuse extra hrs coz it would be a waste of time if they work over the allotted hrs. And thats the people who are actually working.

Always amazes me how many fat people with their five kids allegedly living in child poverty, you see eating in fast food joints, or being able to afford to smoke. It's like they have no clue how to eat economically . Education is whats needed. It makes my blood boil that people on universal credit or working tax credit can now save with the govt and get 50% interest on their savings. So the govt give them money.....to save with the govt.......who then give them more. Beggars belief.

Here she comes.

I saw on my round, a large (double shoe box sort of size) parcel left by them on a doorstep, no porch, open plan estate, no garden walls sort of thing, on a tuesday morning. Was still there on Friday soaked. I'd put one of our red cards through their door saying parcel NOT left by royal mail, didn't want to be getting the blame. Noticed car back on Saturday ,knocked and they said they'd complained but got not very far really, wasn't happy!!

.....and still going up. 10%+ now. Gold rising. All looking good for now at least. Just as well as rest of portfolio is pants today. Lol. When to sell. The golden (sorry) question???

Going well, with ex rate of 1.32 I make it £58.26 for RRS as I type.

Also not quite as expensive as a field in the north sea though. Didn't mention that one.

On a red day. Barrick up 4% pre open. Let's see if RRS can get near £60 .

Huh? What ARE you smoking. Lol. Anyway, back to the share, it's a shame the current market sell off has happened just when m and s was gaining some traction. Such is life. 2 steps forward, one back , more steps to get where you're going but you'll eventually get there and have more time to enjoy the view. How dy'a like that one WGR?
