I see Jet2 are doing well out of the speculation thought about a small purchase yesterday - just wondering also if it's damaging, or potentially will damage the holiday business if people begin to think that the company is going to be broken up - less likely to want to book!

If this is a competition I can trump that (forgive the use of that word!) I bought 92k @ 92p - sold at 120 thinking the engine problems at the time might beset the share price! :)

Just to the newbies - targets mean diddly squat - they're motivated in an attempt to either appease or construct an entry point depending on the politics.

I've seen target of £13 when the share topped at £5 - just be aware! GLA

Hate to be too pessimistic but I'm British after all!

Are the days of cheap oil over? Oil market analysts think so:

“Oil getting back to the $60 level is effectively off the table even if this latest peace deal somehow gets resolved,” said Ben McMillan, chief investment officer at IDX Advisors. “There’s a recovery period for oil supply of at least three months in the best case, probably six months before we get everything back online, and then there’s going to be this baked-in geopolitical risk premium for oil that is going to endure for years.”

I jumped in after the Covid lows but have been extremely frustrated since - too sensitive to Geo- politics and it may get worse.

I'm out at 410-420 as I think this will range trade between that and 350 for the next 8-12 months - will be monitoring any signs of real change in fortune.

The real impact of all this is yet to hit the share price - the economy is faltering once again.

Part of the proposed agreement seems to be that Iran keep its uranium and down cycles it below 60% to commercial use levels - fully monitored by the IAEA

Trump might go for this.

BBC Persia suggesting that Iran are willing to accept a 15 year pause on enriching programs - (20 was asked for 5 was initially offered) this would give Trump an exit with some kind of ‘victory’ on this issue?

Hope not - I just bought in again! - I think Trump will move a couple of chess pieces by Monday. Although £4 may be the new high for a while - can see a bumper summer season to partially offset the losses.

According to the BBC weather presenter this morning - foreign holiday bookings are up 9% on this time last year - escaping the rain! :)

Yes but it's the pre-ex dividend fall I'm worried about - if you look at the historical charts this can be significant :)

'Will Europe’s planned luggage rules kill the budget airline business model?'

Headline from the FT couple of weeks ago - have;t had much time to delve into this - my worry is that there is no one to lobby or Vito this apart from perhaps Ireland and Hungary. EZJ and RYA had said it's crazy - will destroy cheap flying - what do people think?

Perhaps another factor keeping the SP down at the moment.

Wow I thought 5.20 was probably the new 5.88 but seems it might be 4.98! BOE promised no jam today and non for quite a while FFS!

02-Feb-26 RBC Capital Markets Outperform 590.00 590.00 Reiteration

UBS £8 reiteration 0:)

The bank giveth and taketh away at the same time! :) Growth forecast will probably be revised up!

I wonder if the bank dare to drop a half point tomorrow - to stimulate jobs and growth.

Nothin is 'UP' it's just the Santa rally - we're actually way behind Wizz today 6% - Brent down below $60 - you can choose to sell into this but I'm waiting for the update at the end of January. GLA.

'Sleigh' !

Bells, Jingle Bells ....I think I can hear his slay landing at Luton!

Yeah has to be some kind of threat but to be fair I think they 'borrowed' people last time to cover the strikers - as they've said they're planning a full schedule on those days not to spook anyone.

How many sleeps until the rally? I have a feeling it will be after Q1 update on 29th however - this market needs reassurance after reassurance!
