Attempts to drag Serbian forces into the war? And if successful, I suppose we can look forward to a sagecity list of dubious reasons why POLY is immune to a widening conflict. I mean, show us how this 'risk' has been priced in.

"RISKS - Many risks have been priced into the stock during its fall from £15+ to £2.44 per share. However the fall in the share price has nothing to do with how the company has been run. This is still being run as a £15+ company, top 100 FTSE company."

"Very little risk of Nationalisation as Putin has stated he will only do this if companies are thinking of moving away from Russia resulting in Russians losing their jobs, however no risk of any job loses of the 13,000 staff Poly employ."

and be very cautious of such statements... like it or not there is a war on THAT CAN NOT BE IGNORED and changes in the dynamics in that war can happen immediately and so can the prospects of this and other companies caught up in it.

Beware the spread bet syndicates taking over chat boards fooling you into thinking somehow poly is immune from what happens on the battlefield.

In fact, posts complaining about the war and wishing to talk as if it didn't exist should be regarded with great suspicion.

"SANCTIONS - Pretty diversified with numerous banks, mostly and exclusively bank on bilateral basis so we don't have public debt security, we are such advantageous position and use collateral to the bank in the form of physical gold in order to get low rate interest rates (majority of loans already on a fixed interest)."

And this is where the mass hypocrisy comes into it. WHY are there sanctions? You are seriously going to cover up WHY?

as night follows day, posts supporting Ukraine are purged and only pro Russian posts left. So, poly investors, who do you trust on here? I am a holder but increasingly weary with the massive ramping

You're welcome.

Two more articles indicating the Ukraine forces maybe on the brink of pushing back Russian forces further. Since Putin has gone all in in Donbas, I can not see how he will survive a reversal of progress in Donbas. The costs for what has been gained, and now being lost, have been huge. This is the fourth Sunday, now the generals must come to a decision.

Gone where?

No surrender monkeys in Spain. No leader humiliating the entire nation. And no quarter being given to the child murderer in the Kremlin.

If you are relying on Kissinger to ave your mate Putin, you really are clutching at straws;

"“Historians could learn a great deal about the years after World War II simply by studying the vicissitudes of Kissinger’s celebrity,” Gewen hazards toward the end of his book. One could go further: the main display of Kissinger’s “realism” was in the management of his own fame, his transformation of a conventional performance into a symbol of diplomatic virtuosity."

"the case against him built, bolstered by a stream of declassified documents chronicling actions across the globe. Seymour Hersh, in “The Price of Power” (1983), portrayed Kissinger as an unhinged paranoiac; Christopher Hitchens, in “The Trial of Henry Kissinger” (2001), styled his attack as a charge sheet for prosecuting him as a war criminal."

"After senior US leader Henry Kissinger"

Since when has he been a 'leader'? He was last in the US government in 1977. Yes 1977! He may have a good publicist with multiple book sales since but he is in no way a US leader nor senior except in age.

"There are also more and more countries limiting or refusing weapons to Ukraine for various reasons"

EVIDENCE!

There is nothing on any news feed about withholding weapons. Quite the opposite. Best you'll find is Germany foot dragging whilst it was dealing with oil embargo talks but even Germany is back on pace.

Biden actual said it was a matter for Ukraine and Ukraine have said no land to be given. Sounds like the wishful thinking brigade are back out pleading with Zelensky to just give up land saving Russian rom the outright humiliation of total defeat.

This nudge theory has been applied from the start wit even the BBC trying to instil the Kremlin line that the cause of the ar is the resistance to invasion and land grabs are a price worth paying. This nudge theory failed with Blair, failed with the remain vote, failed against Trump, is failing more and more with the climate crisis lie and is failing In Ukraine.

Nudge theory is just that, a theory. Unfortunately some people have become such advocates they truly believe you can nudge people in small increments towards a position they would otherwise not move to. But, as with all forms of hypnosis including nudge and NLP, you can not force somebody they don't want to do. People are remarkably more independant and immune to TV and social media influence than those doing the nudge theorying like to believe. Any opportunity that could have been presented late April early May for a negotiated settlement has gone. This is now a binary situation, all Russian forces of Ukraine soil.

If I had been in charge of the covid response, there would have been no mask wearing, no lockdown and mandatory vaccination!

"We are invited to “de-escalate” by stopping fighting after the Russians destroyed Mariupol, destroyed other Ukrainian cities and occupied part of the country. And now they say, let’s de-escalate and start negotiations.

Why are negotiations necessary? To make it possible for the Putin regime to survive and keep this oligarchic system. So that European leaders can say that Putin has made concessions, so let’s not implement an embargo on energy."

Looks like the landbridge is going to under threat with so much of the Russian army diverted trying to get a tactically low import town. This is going to be a bloody rout unless the Russian generals give up.

I was going to catch up, but didn't read any of the posts.

Ha, that's it.

Days left before either Moscow or the front line gives in,lol

"Just three months ago, we all just watched as Putin changed the story from "war unthinkable" to "war inevitable." And yet, for some reason, some Western leaders ignore this basic structural fact of Russian politics when they advocate appeasement."

For those arguing for some sort of negotiated exit, this is a well written piece demonstrating that it is not the real issue. It also helps explain why the narrative over the last month has switched to a firm 'Russia must lose'. It is a one person perspective but worth considering.
