Firering Strategic Minerals: From explorer to producer. Watch the video here.
Despite all the optimism shown here over the long bank holiday weekend by people who should have had better things to do, I can only see this falling today in line with FTSE losses. European markets fell yesterday and are down this morning.
A good 2p + to come off here today?
Carolyn, Lady Caroline or watchherchops OUT!
"Baz" looks to have given "Caz" clear instructions to let him and the lady from HR do the talking.
Edward Bonham Carter (brother to Helena) looks to be another over entitled board member who is there more to connections than ability. In effect it was his failure to assess the ITVX launch strategy that crashed the share price. Too busy with his other board positions elsewhere that he failed to run it past city analysts who would have told him to tone down the announcements and only gradually release information on costs.
As the hedge fund guy in the room pointed out. Too many board members. Too much money going out the door for minimal return.
Sack the lot of them and let Ant and Dec run the company.
Next year I hope to attend in person. None of the filtering. To look the Dame in the eye and ask her to resign whilst in the same room.
Hopefully she turns ITV around or quits by then.

38 minutes in
Needed to watch this back but the Slido question at 38 minutes is a "combination". I did not mention dividends but otherwise that was mostly my question.

Peachy look at the voting results. The mere fact they read out a question asking her if she should resign at the AGM is the closest we get to a shareholder vote of no confidence.
Jed, nobody expected Carolyn to go at the first AGM. This may take time. Us activist investors are happy to keep the pressure on.
Floor is yours though now until the next results. Throw up some more optimistic posts about how you see this going over £1 in the not too distant future. Be prepared for people to challenge your position as that is what we do here. Shoot down badly thought out projections of where ITV is going.
Carolyn looked glum once she had delivered her initial speech. Like she knew what was coming and that all the criticism is directed at her. There was one Slido question that copied, verbatim, multiple posts and criticisms levelled here. It is like we have some visibility.
Carolyn if you read the comments here.....Please resign and save us all from more years of your weak leadership.
Waffle waffle waffle. Double digital revenue by 2026. Nobody is buying that lie.
That 2% gain just before the start is going to vanish now Carolyn is talking .....
1.8% up. Nice to see some optimism ahead of the meeting. Hopefully it does not all vanish once the Dame takes to the stage.
Francn79 I just ran through your posting history. Wow. You need to post more often. Better informed and better sources than all of us part time commentators. You were telling us that everytime the Dame speaks she crashes the share price long before covid and long before her disastrous presentation. You quoted her as saying "she cares not for the share price". You also foretold that Britbox would be an expensive flop. That Carolyn was hiring cronies from Easyjet that were largely useless.
We need more people like you who know the business properly to put information out here. That way we can put pressure on the Board to change.
I will have a go at Slido tomorrow. See if I can get anything through about the Dame's remuneration being totally out of line with ITV share price performance and too high for a FTSE 250 CEO. Would she consider a paycut or better still resigning for somebody who merits such a package.
Jed you have been telling people to Top Up all the way down. I bought in at 76p and told people not to buy before the omnishambles presentation. Anyone who listened to you is feeling like that Obi Wan Kenobi quote. The fool who followed the fool.
There are no guarantees of any share price pick up here. AGM tomorrow could send share either way. High stakes gamble. I would advise no sane individual to invest here. This is for high risk investors who have lost all sense.
Winstanley and Jed are full of optimism. The past 5 years has shown that such optimism is unmerited.
Anyone new to this board please exercise caution around the advice given by long term holders to "top up". They have been historically wrong time and time again. This share has been on a downward trend now for 5 years and yet at every opportunity there is someone seeing an amazing reversal of fortune and upturn in the share price.
Be negative, be cynical. There is money to be made here but Jed and Winnie have no idea.
I sit somewhere between the two extremes now. This I am hoping is the real low. With Carolyn gone and some further board members replaced this company could become very profitable. Just needs to recognise it can no longer be the biggest player in the UK. It cannot hope to see off the big US streamers. Instead it needs to embrace them and produce content for them and their UK audiences and perhaps they might then share their content, subscription free to the main channel after it airs live or 6 months to a year after it has been up on their platform.
£1 is possible but this China zero covid looks like pushing us into a global recession in the not too distant future.
So Winstanley refuses to read posts that contradict or conflict with his viewpoint and then proceeds to get burnt when the shares crash and Carolyn proves herself not to be the great visionary that he believes her to be.
Got to question the IQ of some of the boards long term holders. 5 years and the penny still has not dropped. Even Nige has realised that Carolyn is damaging to ITV.
Winstanley those neigh sayers have wiped half the value from ITV. The Panto Dame has done nothing to reverse those losses.
Carolyn is just a passenger along for the ride. She cannot see how to steer this company or take it in any direction other than where the shorters and sellers take it.
Just be happy that things are turning at long last. I am. Yesterday I was convinced we were on for another 5 days of falling share price.
Nige never forgets a slur against his good name. His reputation here is all important.
Nige. Go take some deep breaths. One persons opinion is of little importance.
I love you mate. No grudge is worth holding.
Rodez I think Carolyn should get a bonus of the entire cash balance once the takeover is done. She helped the buyer to purchase at a vastly reduced valuation.
I came in with the hope of selling at £1 or £1.20. A bid just before the AGM would be very nice.
The BID!!!!!Liberty!!!!!
