Anyone that drives past Heathrow on the M25 will see that their electricity generator chimneys are now puffing away smoke again .
Note: the generator burns all the rubbish the airport and airplanes produce to create all the airports electricity needs.
It hasn't been puffing since 2019 so they have been buying their energy of the grid.
Great to fill an ISA up today with MKS shares.
But if the forecast was £500m min and there hasn't to date been any profit warning (a legal requirement should profits fall below 10% the forecast figure)
then it must be reasonable to assume £500 min is still game on.
Martyn I lost out on making £750k more money during the CC and it hurt me for years afterwards. You have lost the moment here but at least IAG r still crazy cheap ATM.
If there is an RNS confirming Fridays rumour then we will be at least £1.50.
Why wouldn’t an offer of 1 Bae share for 4 RR be reasonable? Bae going up 20% in just a few weeks while at the same time RR have fallen 20% in the other direction may have triggered the T/O catalyst.
GL everyone for Monday.
I wonder if Motley Fool saw this one coming.
Buzby I hope you are right.
Have a great Friday evening everyone.
Hi Bargain here's a useful DOW Futures link that I use during stock market turbilence.

If you are like me and bought in to RR at under £1 then you don't really need to know the answer to your question cos you have already done the hard/clever bit and if you have bought enough of them then you will have set yourself up for life.
All you need to know is the previous 2019 Market Cap was £50B and today its £8B meaning in 5 years from now when 2019 flying hours return i.e. £4B civil aviation profits return ,plus the new mini nuclear modular business gets going and all 30 NATO countries have interested their defence budgets from 2 % to 3.5- 4% your under a £1 investment is going to exceed £6.

Basically the only skill you need from this point is to be able to sit on your hands and not touch your investment money for 5 years if you can pull that off you will make a lot of money here.

But doesn't todays 50-50 JV mean BT has in some way gained access to some of Discoveries value while at the same time halving its own overheads and keeping its sports customer base?
It will keep creeping daily upwards simple because £1.91 is still along way from £2.70.
£2 by Friday is still possible and if the 3rd Feb finals were to be accompanied by BT Sports news this would see us break the £2.70 GS Conviction BUY Recommendation for sure .
Easy money...
Dont forget about the £2.45 Mid Feb Call Option contracts that are due to expire 3 weeks from now.Looks to me like the fun and games have now ended and the march towards £3 has now begun .
Altice associates who lent him the money in the first place are probably using their newly acquired 18% stock to short their own position .
Basically its inside information shorting.
Great post Dazpink thanks for the heads up.
Moroccan Jews are easy for the Gov to turn down unlike Indian billionaires who according to Rod Mitchell is also a major Tory doner.
18% is no coincidence and if he was genuinely not interested in making a bid at some later date then he would take up his seat on the board wouldn't he?
Also its Openreach that the Gov will be wanting to protect for national security reasons not EE/BT .For £3.2B and some assistance from DT he is not far off taking EE/BT from under our very noses.
And if he gets away with it he will instantly double his overall worth (£7B) overnight.
In summary i believe BT/EE are the target.
An additional £1B investment into BT is a good RNS from my point of view.This T/O story will of course return at some point in the NY an obvious catalyse being Altice's Portuguese disposal.
I have a feeling Friday is going to be the day we have all been waiting for , for the last 5 months since mid August.If we close well above £1.70 then we will be off to the races next week.
Everyone wants to dance with us.
GL Everyone.
Another possibility is Drahi is just like the rest of us and can see a fantastically high yielding cash cow in BT in just a few years time.
We r all going to find out soon enough .
Obviously Drahi doesn't have the resources to purchase the whole of BT even if he was allowed to by Whitehall ,so it is a bit of a mystery as to what he is up to and how this is all going to end. The only thing we can be sure of is the BT BOD are taking the possibility of a T/O post 10th Dec very seriously and if they are, as shareholders so should we.Also i have never bought into the SP decline from £2.05 to £1.36 and I am confident it was manipulated down to accommodate Drahi to increase his holding even further .
Whatever happens next I think we can all agree we are all going to have a very good Xmas this year.
