How many times do you need to tell people you have filtered those that don't ramp the hell out the stock to make you feel good about your own decisions? You're constant never ending references to filtering people shows just how little confidence you have in your own strategy.

I occasionally take a potshot at a very short term price prediction and more often than not am correct and profit on that day trade. I have no idea what lows or highs this can go to since trading doesn't have finish lines, only lap times [at best].

Hell, a RI might be taken as a tremendous bold positive by the city, they can swallow tail or do a Stelios and pocket cash! A lot of people are saying the sp did well out of the 1st. But the inexperienced here react with panic, anger, fury, despair, morbidity and fear when it is in the discussion.

"Oh Lord, what fools these mortals be"

Some of you are just a joke.....

..... and if the hysterical rampers want some insight as to why the iis are not taking this further, you might want to consider how LONG it took for the company to respond to THREE brokers making a judgement that the company need another RI whilst the city was rife with speculation and then the manner of a public message through a newspaper interview rather than an RNS. iis a very familiar with smoke and mirror corporate communications and do not like it when important questions are not answered quick and on the appropriate record. The city has lost a degree of confidence in IAG over the way the brokers were handled. And that is on going because the financial planning exercises are hidden from scrutiny. And the 'emergency' window is trailing out to normal time as each day ticks by. Remember, the brokers were expecting an RI when the date for opening up the US flights is known. Consider this when assessing the risk.

Why bother with an analysis? I have provided plenty but because it doesn't fit the ramp fest narrative not only was it rejected, you all close your ears and go into denial. Your all so desperate for confirmation you are right with your ramp fest despite the red flag on the share. Demanding qualification? You lot just can't handle it!

This infatuation with me does get weary at times.

There are new 1st time posters on a daily basis. All following the script. You couldn't make it up, well actually..............

Upthladder, in gaming the scenarios I think there is a corporate structure issue as IAG is a collection of companies under the IAG umbrella whilst the others are mostly not tied. So if there is consolidation involving airlines, it would mean breaking up the group.

DR, you are perhaps not fully briefed about what kind of war gaming takes place and the kind of scenarios considered in the boardroom. It will have been considered, what kind of outcome would they envisage?

If the board let IAG go into insolvency would tge Qataties accept BA full ownership in compensation? Might be a good deal. The other airlines could be sold to cover debt quickly. I wonder if pne of the financial solutions being discussed is an insolvency deal.

Interesting option to war game scenarios!

You know, for all this talk about filtering out an opinion and various individuals of that opinion, the Emus don't half go on and on about what they claim to not be interested in.

I'm getting to the point of wishing they would shut up and get on with the hysterical ramping. Up another 3% today?

wow, just like that. so easily led. will you jump in the pond on command too? roll over, roll over!

I've seen occasions before when one or two go blind to red flags. But this lovein is something else. The degree of absolute denial is the worst I have seen. They keep insisting there is no financing issue as if just wishing it away will actually make it go away in the real world. A level of delusion I have genuinely never seen before. It is fascinating to watch.

Try negotiating your debt when it is due! It can not be put to one side or left to deal with latter as you implied before. You have agreed debt limits. If they are going to be exceeded, you can expect them to be called in. If you can't pay, the assets you own will be quickly recovered to cover them. Banks are ruthless in this sense. If they don't like what they see with the debt piling up and the management, they move on you - and fast. There are a lots of people assessing companies with the same red eyes banks do. It wise to listen to what they say and think, they can be quite revealing. Especially when there is a chorus!

I suspect the constant pitch of wealth is to obtain some sort of social superiority and standing which he lacks at the moment. From that he hopes people will derive he is an investment guru and he will gain kudos from followers. The sort of people that looks at their social media posting expecting to find thousands of likes or followers and sees simple plain zeros. No word on the fundamental information that gets posted.

my trading platform is iweb. It doesn't do spread betting as far as I can tell and has no facility for shorting, as far as I can tell. I don't do leveraged trading of any sort. I don't do commodities or bit coins. I am in fact a rather boring little pi these days. I learned to not bother with the game of waiting for entry points or exit points in the main. I am more to do with smash and grab. Using 360 input, looking for events or activities that are not obvious, especially against people having a bias , and predicting how more level headed rational money making business is business iis in the city will respond. So those who love the EU will have a bias against a potential decision that could knacker one industry in favour of another in the great way they share out the cake over there. I don't have the bias, I merely consider the consequences and invest in where the positive collateral will be. I don't wait for a mysterious force to drop the buy price first, and after the event and my company is suddenly revalued up by the market, I don't wait for some magic finish line price. I take the money and run. No emotion, no ramping, no deramping just focused on the differential being worth the punt. And if there is a loss, so be it. Cash up and move on. So here, with IAG, I've been day trading it at the start of the year, but then lined up ready for which stock would benefit the most with the removal of travel restrictions. Then I waited. And waited. And Waited and then realised there was no political will, indeed there was clear and active sabotage. So I have left my money plonked where ever it was at the time and have merely monitored events. It has just dragged on and on and considering the other 360 inputs and news events as they happen, it looks like the big event is going to be a muted affair. So what. The world is emerging form lockdown, recovery is beginning in many sectors and opportunities will be found elsewhere.

I was expecting running narratives explaining why, on the back of such fantastic news headlines, the sp is dropping again. But it seems all the rampers have left to join Benji boys party board. I can only imagine what it is like in there, a dozen hysterical rampers locked in a room with no alternative view. The smell of sweat, erroohhh!
Well good luck to them. Here in the real world, I think some reality on opening up of the industry and the loss of summer and most of Autumn is priced in - and the market is not liking the slow draggin of heels over US opening, fuel costs that trickle down ito overheads, oil price still moving up, supply chain issues possibly impacting on logistics, inflation fears from wage inflation at the same time as stagflation concerns and the ever present fear of interest rates going up as the recovery gathers pace.
There are some positives to look for but the US date announcement is most likely only going to have a short and diluted spike. The financing red flag is still not addressed. Easy j can release a statement saying bookings up 400% but the market puts down EJ another 2.5%.

And to top it all the madness of cop26 is about to start which could have a very significant impact on freedom to travel, there is still no voice in the public domain questioning or challenging the hysterical agenda - too many world leaders seem to be on board in full. Very worrying.

nidec,

US has said it will recognise WHO listed vaccines, which means the Astra jab vaccination will be accepted. It was the only practical solution.

- load your weapon of choice because here comes a messenger with some bad news;

On moving averages and technical indicators it is a 'strong sell' on the hourly and daily. Weekly is 'neutral' and monthly 'sell'.

It isn't looking too hot at the moment.

Yes, I think I will have the blindfold, thank you.

Stand up and a round of applause for braveheart sundenza. SO brave he has to make a point of it. What was that about constantly posting the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over.........

I notice SSP, my bellwether share for travel sector, has turned around and recovering again. There is normally a 24 hr delay before reflected in the rest of the travel stocks, in general, so rest of week could be a lst window for me. Almost half-way through October and no opening date for the US is troubling though.

One would imagine that any rule for land borders would be replicated for airports. In which case, the most important info is "Proof of a negative COVID-19 test will not be required either." That gives a strong indication of no fit to fly test required.

But this is curious, "Foreign visitors will need to be fully vaccinated to enter the country - a rule which will also be implemented for essential travellers - like truck drivers - by mid-January."

by mid-January? Does that mean the borders will be opened from some time in November but travellers will not need to be fully vaccinated? Something a bit inconsistent there. And is that odd confusion a reason why we are simply not getting any firm indication of when the opening date will be? Looks to me like there is a factional war in the White House like there has been in Downing St. The UK's big experiment in removing social distance and mask legalities does seem to be working with a levelling off of cases and deaths overall. I note mask wearing is now reduced to less than a third or lower in shops I have been too. Without the super spreaders via mask to surface contamination and coupled with a high vaccination rate, we are clearly 'living' with covid now with the big majority of hospital cases actually non-vaccinated people.

At least it looks like no fit to fly will be required for the states, and from that I would hope most if not all other fit to fly tests can be removed. Day 2 can be a cheap PCR or lateral flow, there is money there and data for the academics so I suspect that will be around for some time to come. No mention of day 2 or 8 testing required crossing the land border into the US, I hope that is the same for air travel.

No, you can't move on because you are all trying to deny the blatant facts. If people were speculating the probability of further dilution and giving low odds, that would be an fair enough comment. But the insistence that no brokers raised warnings or that Ris and even all forms of dilution are ruled out is plain wrong and I will answer back everybody that tries to dupe people with the false claims. Three brokers DID warn of RIs and the CEO has not totally ruled one out. That is the fact and the truth and something a few people here must accept instead of repeatedly posting denials.

Now, YOU, admit the facts as shown in evidence.
