Charles Jillings, CEO of Utilico, energized by strong economic momentum across Latin America. Watch the video here.
Yes to all that! That said this Govt is allowing itself to be held hostage by shrill minority interests and is petrified of doing anything that may "anger" the woke. it is a Govt in name only and sadly any alternatives are even worse.
Redemptions of the fund or funds?, Looks like distressed selling to me. It's happening a lot especially now as many funds have been holding Russian stocks and bonds. Just a guess mind.
Irrational volatility is impossible to trade day to day and its sheer luck if you come out ahead. Back in the day when I was in short trousers I dabbled with CFD’s just before the financial crisis and thought money was just hanging from the trees. Two years later it almost did me in. Sometimes the only way is to walk away and keep some dry powder for when things become overdone. Still have to the t shirt but have slept much easier without the CFD’s. Good luck etc
The man is a fool. Fracking in this country is 110% safe. He should concern himself with countries such as China or India when it comes to the impact of energy policy on climate change. Britain should pay less regard to the shrill ill informed wailing of minority pressure groups through dubious media outlets such as the Guardian.
I guess when push comes to shove they don't, so you have to question why they were there in the first place. This of course we all know the answer to. Militarily this has not been good for Russia albeit a tragedy for the Ukraine. Longer term whatever the outcome the Russian economy will suffer lasting damage. Currently vulture funds willing to buy Russian bonds are few. Most funds want out completely instructing managers to liquidate at first opportunity or write off the assets completely. increasingly guidelines state no more investments in Russian debt. Sanctions such strong as these have seldom been used if it all. The economy no bigger than Spain's loosest to shrink a little further still. I am sure China is watching and keeping notes. They'd do well to broker a way out for their "friend"
He might just carve out the bits he's interested in like the Donbass? The separatists will get that they want and the West can stat rebuilding the Ukraine around them. they may come to rue there decision in that eventuality. For Putin and Russia the future looks bleak as Putin has showed too much of his hand, thereby strengthening the case for NATO which will likely see applicants rise. STAR WARS now has to have gained some traction as the world cannot be held to ransom by a nuclear armed despot. Time will tell how much longer Putin can fool the majority of his people into backing him. He will do well to study the fate of some of his predecessors.
Most transactions are done off market nowadays in the so called "dark pools" where they are crossed between the buyers and sellers so it has become very difficult to get an accurate picture as to what the institutions are doing
Lti I share your frustration. That said the Buy back is peanuts in relation to the outstanding stock and the impact will be substantially reduced by the issue of new shares to remunerate staff. many are sick and tired of being screwed year in year out by the company's management. Institutions should start throwing their toys out of the pram as this is hurting everyone with a pension.
Perhaps a little more. We have had the prop desk shake out and no doubt they have taken a few for the book to let go first thing for a for maybe a 10p turn? Not bad for a week's work and certainly enough for a few jars In Leadenhall Market come Friday lunchtime.
The amounts LLoy will be buying back not withstanding that mots of the boughtbuac shares will be reallotted to staff are insignificant in relation to the number issued at the height of the financial crisis. It fools no one and especially not the institutional holders. Cash dividends are the only meaningful way now to reward the shareholders who have been promised jam tomorrow for almost the last 15 years.
Longer term the West needs to reduce its dependence on Russian oil and gas and as the current market is demonstrating OPEC is in no hurry to ride to the rescue. We have vast reserves of readily accessible shale gas and are already well vested in renewables and nuclear. With Nordsream now put on ice its little wonder that GAZP and ROSN are getting squeezed. The time has come to stop listening to the nimbies and put our own people and interests first.
