That would be nice, but I can't see it happening. I'm expecting a drop of at least 60p. Be delighted if I'm wrong. All very disappointing after a good day yesterday. Should have known there would be a sting in the tail.

craigo - some fair points in there, and i do respect trumps energy, and his drive to get things done, as oposed to the constant prevaricating, and endless dithering in this country. that said, i still think he is a loathsome, sexist, ******, narcisistic thug.if he's the best the usa has to offer, we are all doomed.

I think that Trump, having been knocked back by the Supreme Court, is now more likely to attack Iran. That's the kind of pathetic man-child he is. If he doesn't get his way, he throws his teddy out of the pram, and lashes out. Beyond pitiful. He put some of those judges in place himself, but just because they disagree with him on this issue, he turns to insulting them.

He really is the most pathetic, thin-skinned, narcisistic, sociopathic (psychopathic?) fuc***t) on the planet. How the hell did it come to this? Time to stop sucking up to this moron, and, despite the inevitable negative consequences, tell him to fu****g grow up, or fu*k off.

History will judge him harshly, and see see him for the cretinous, corrupt, thug/bully that he is.

Time for me to get off the fence now - I've got splinters in my ar*e.

Could be a nervy weekend coming up; who the hell knows what the orange idiot will do next. Does he even know himself? I'm in a bit deeper than I would like, having bought some more at 1350 when they dropped from over 1400 - seemed a decent price at the time - not so much now. Ooops. Luckily there's enough in the piggy bank to keep me in Peroni for a while, so if I have to hang on to them, so be it.

PS (off topic) - hi fordm, great to hear from you again after all this time. I jumped out of IAG too early - it was stuck in that 145/180 range for what seemed like forever, and I ran out of patience. Of course, it then doubled in price. D'oh!! Only recently started posting a bit more regularly, now that I an invested here. It's bumpy old ride, but will hopefully pay off at some point. Hope you and the family are well - keep posting here please. Cheers.

PPS - Hobknobs (sic.) are still not a biscuit.

OMG - fordm - where have you been?

Been a long time bruv, and you are one of my favourite posters of all time. Still wearing the lederhosen?

Robbren - great minds think alike.

This is fun!

Go Stan.... you know you want to. No guts, no glory, bruv.

Down 2.3% in 11 minutes. WTF! (again). Couldn't resist yet another nibble (again). Trouble is, my nibbles have now turned into a substantial meal, and alongside my L/T holding, I am feeling distinctly bloated. Classic symptoms of an addict, but I am definitely not one.

Now where did I leave that crack pipe?

Yes, yet another crazy day for holders here. I had a sell order in for1422, on a day trade bought at 1402. I cancelled that at the last minute because things seemed to be on an upward trajectory. 3 hours later the price was 1330'ish. WTF! Then jumped back in at 1345p, so having been way down at lunchtime, I now find myself with an aggregate gain on the day. Bonkers. This is all in addition to my long-term holding.

Not for the nervous, or faint-hearted. I need to factor into my losses/gains, the cost of my bar bill to cope with all the stress involved. I reckon that's about 1.5p per share (depending on volume, obvs.).

Like a junkie who just needs "one more hit", or a gambler who can't resiist one more throw of the dice, I will be back for more tomorrow - against my own advice.

Neil Mccauley in 'Heat' - "For me the action IS the juice".

True dat.

Those historical figures are interesting, and very encouraging.I tend to think in shorter time frames myself. and anticipate that the H1 F27 figures in November could be a critical point. Hopefully, with more aircraft returning, and a profitable summer season, that could be a real turning point. Not holding out much hope for a resolution in Ukraine, as Putin has no interest whatsoever in peace, but that would be the icing on the (Black Forest gateau?) cake.

On that note, I should put these in a metaphorical drawer, and come back in November for an early Xmas present. Of couse, I should also drink less, eat more fibre, and go to church on Sundays. Never going to happen. Anyway, I have to check in regularly (about 20 times a day) as I have done quite well with smallish intra-day trades here, on top of my main holding, which I intend to top up sometime in the next week or two. It's quite difficult psychologically to pay £14 plus, when one could have got them for only £10/£11 only recently, but don't want to be looking back in 12 months time thinking "If only I had bought at £14....".

Always risks, naturally - but can't help but see more upside than downside here.

Where will the price be on Dec.31st this year? Answers on a postcard. please...

Trying to nail down a precise closing price can be tricky - it seems to bounce around a lot. And as for Google Finance - I used to rely on that, but these days it is totally unreliable, and wildly inacurate. Not sure what happened there. I tend to log into my trading account ( for me that is Lloyds), and check the last trading price, and that is normally accurate.

Anyway, between my long-term holding here, and my day-trading the swings, Wizz has been very good to me of late, and my regular barmaid (who has benefited from my good mood/ financial gains) would like to say thanks.

If we should hit £20 in the next 12 months, I have promised to extract her from her current life of drudgerry, and whisk her away to my newly aquired Sussex mansion. Actually, it wouldn't be a mansion - just a tasteful period property in a rural location. I am not greedy - location is everything.

Onwards and upwards, carpe diem, etc. etc.

Apologies - I have warned against the perils of drink posting, but seem incapable of taking my own advice.

Mea Culpa.

If this steady climb continues much longer, the shorts will need clean shorts. Just did a nice little day trade for some beer money; long-term holding intact. I could get used to this.

Not quite a Dom Perignon day, but certainly better than a Tenants Extra day. Maybe a cheeky N.Z. Sauvignon Blanc. And some crisps.

I can't imagine I am alone in being a holder of EZJ alongside my holding here. Which makes Thursday a really big day. Have slightly reduced my holding here, to reduce risk, but between this and EZJ, I am (by my meagre standards) heavily invested.

Anyway, by Thursday evening, I will either be pouring Dom Perignon over Lithuanian pole-dancers naked bodies, or drinking a can of of Teanants Extra (alone) in the local park.

Let's see what happens. Compared to Alex Honnold (the free-climber currently in the news), this is all pretty meaningless. I recently lost a friend to cancer, so a few grand here or there, in the scheme of things, doesn't really matter. Whatever way it goes on Thursday, life will go on.

Carpe diem.

A pint of Dom Perignon, please barmaid. And one for yourself, pet.

Now up almost £1 today.

I love Wizz.

Middle East, Ukarine, Trunp is in a mood again,

Greenland, Cuba, cold war back again,

Venezuela, Mexico

Colombia, Iran, tariff goods ban,

China, Russia, can't recall where it all began.

We didn't start the fire

No we didn't light it, but we're trying to fight it.

Apologies for last night - don't drink and post, kids!

As far as the price here goes, I am about 70% holding long-term, with the remainder left for trading. Happy with that position. Despite the ups and downs (and recently there was a considerable down), I am still ahead here, and expect to be further ahead in the future (12-18 months). Probably said this before, but I can just see more upside potential than down side. That means that as a gambler (and we all are), the odds favour a long-term bet. Let's see where we are next Xmas.- only 348 sleeps to go!

I too, like all traders/investors. have sufferered from premature purchase/sale syndrome. Quite nasty, and the more one is aware of it, the more of a problem it becomes. I tried drugs, and a certain cream, but it didn't work.

I think it's best to lower one's expectations. Nobody gets it right all, or even some of the time. Knowing when to put it in, or when to withdraw, is more a matter of good luck than good timing. The best one can hope for is getting it right more than one gets it wrong. Otherwise, it can get messy.

Like most things in life, timing is everything.

What the hell has Trump done now?
