Congrats on casino result!

We’re off onto Iona on Saturday. Still no cabin number, just a grade guarantee. Should know tomorrow.

B

Well, the end of a **** week. Have a good weekend everyone, including you, Hexy.

B

Oh dear, what a terrible typo. I am SO sorry mjg22. Sincere apologies.

B (not brain dead)

You’ll soon be able to buy some more at that price, mug.

B

Tomorrow will be too late…..

B

And they won’t get the stuff from Qatar, will they? Largest producer is USA. I don’t think supply is a problem for Carnival just tge price.

We’re on Iona on 14th. If only they would tell me the cabin number (we have a grade guarantee).

B

Slowly clawing back some of the drop. Must confess that the pessimist in me expected 15% but we are closer to half that.

Not sure that NCL’s results will give us a boost however good they are as current circumstances outweigh pretty much everything. Just got to hope that talks resume soonest. Apparently the Iranians are asking to do that.

B

Indeed, I had thought of selling on Thursday but will probably wait until amalgamation in April.

B

Oh crikey, did not expect this so soon!

B

Ditto. No tax withheld either.

B

That’s probably the reason I shout a lot but hang in there, i.e. my “average” is just under £8…..

B

I am glad I didn’t take my speculation!

Totally don’t understand what’s happening - at least my ears are smaller than Dumbo’s…….

B

So far today, approx 1.75% gain. A lot more than expected. Possibly another plunge at 14:30? Time to sell and buy back? I don’t have the courage to do that!

B

Having had the usual plunge at 14:30 it recovered to claim back nearly one fifth of the loss on Monday. Onward and upward.

Bot, is that plunge the AI’s etc again?

What did you make of the Orange One’s hour and 50 minute rant? The BBC kept banging on about standing ovations but it was ONLY the Republicans. Democrats sat there stony faced. No more than you would expect, I suppose.

B

Well, we recovered half the loss from yesterday. Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow…….

B

Thank you both. I know, Bot, that voting rights are pretty well immaterial as they are in many JS companies but there’s a principle in there somewhere.

Mutuals are even worse - the directors are accountable only to themselves and can only receive bonuses in cash!!

B

PS it sounds like the plunge yesterday may have been due to AI blog post that went viral.

B

Hi Bot & Bob and all,

The other difference we haven’t mentioned is voting rights and the pricing differential ( around 12%, I think) that creates. Does the amalgamation mean that we shall get that uplift when it happens?

B

Over 5.5% down on previous close. I know US stocks were under pressure after the Orange one’s reaction on tariffs but this is a bit much?

Oh well, just have to wait a bit longer for your £25, Bot!

B

That was my understanding, too, Linda. Apologies for any confusion. LSE delisting planned for April, I think.
