I agree, a softly softly approach would be better but easy to say if reaction were drastic.

I've already got my game plan, this doesn't change it.

Core holding and reduce holding to reinvest elsewhere / play the rollercoaster.

As always I wish you all good luck whatever you decide. Stay sane.

So moving on....

Big wobble in the SP next week or two with it stabilising slightly heading into Nov / Dec ...

Waivers still needed.

Vaccine needed.

Update on release schedule needed.

Not official yet... It always hurts more getting told by the newspapers your losing your job rather than your boss.

As furlough ends there's no real relief available for Cine employees. The new scheme means they would have to be actually working to get topped up, which appears won't be the case. Redundancies to follow. Shame.

"Variety understands from sources that the chain will close all sites in both countries as early as this week, with staff notified ahead of Monday. Regal is the second largest domestic chain in the U.S., while Cineworld is the U.K.’s biggest cinema operator."

Yes, all US, UK & Ireland to close.

Not just UK...

What's a 'High Street'¿

@ian - I've said this all along...

Why do 'we' refer to PVOD as something new... It's not.

It's golden days have gone now that every media corporation wants a piece and looking how to make money off it. Back in the day you paid Netflix, that's it. Now it's 4-5 different companies wanting your cash.

Disney have got the most clout movie wise because of their Pixar / Star Wars / Marvel franchises which were incredible money makers.... Netflix for your TV content - but they still kill off good shows if the data doesn't lead you to binge other content. Then you've got others Amazon, HBO et al

2 biggest issues with P/VOD is market dilution and piracy...

The easy way to solve this is buy a cinema chain
... And push your own content to it at a premium for the experience and then roll it out, still at a reduced premium, to your VOD service... Then switch it up, put stuff like The Mandalorian on the cinema and get people to pay again to watch on a massive screen.

Bingo... Double Whammy!

The SP's took a cut with a shaver.
Leaving in my mouth a slightly bitter flavour.
So c'mon Mooky be a lifesaver.
For CINE holders who have been braver.
Because right now we all need a favour.
We need that godamned covenant waiver.

Agree.

I've my plan. Let's see what happens next week.

Waiver, Vaccine, Content, Takeover.

In that order please.

Would the share purchase not be part of a golden handshake for joining the firm.Do we know he actually put his hand in his pocket?

I've already broadcast my decision...

A mix of ii & iii.

Core holding, trade the dips and reinvest an element elsewhere. I'll hold some cash for when required.

What's stopping the studios bleeding us to death, pushing us to bankruptcy and taking on the business on the cheap and without the debt?

Serious question.

Hey, you never know. We might all wake up Monday and the SP will have rallied to 100p...

Unlikely, but I wouldn't be shocked. Anything possible at the moment!

Are you referring to me boix?

I'm neither panicking nor sweating.... I will be further reducing my position on Monday based on all the current risk but ultimately because Bond has moved. There is only so much income the business can move further down the line and then it becomes a drag on the business. I will leave a core holding and probably play and the swings over the next few weeks. Move some money to less risky shares and hope that they recover quicker (or lose less) than CINE over the next 2-3 months while we await a more positive plan.

I wish you all good luck in whatever you choose to do. I'll continue to support my local cinema by spending money on snacks but I'd rather spend it in a CINE than simply watch it evaporate over time.

I've other cash available to move back in when/if there is a better foundation to start our advance.

I unfortunately have the opinion that this will drop further over the next few weeks....

I got a free popcorn AND nachos from cine today (via email)... Plus a few IMAX upgrade was a thank you for being an Unlimited member... I feel they're really pushing to get people back now... With the £4 novie deal as well.

I'm booked to see Rocky Balboa, waiting for Akira.

It will be interesting to see turnout over the next 6 weeks, we need the waivers... Watching the SP drop to 30's is a little stressful but I'm waiting to see what happens in the next week or so before I make my next move, unless something forces my hand in the meantime.

Buy high, then buy lower... add together and divide.

Your average is lower.

Not trying to sound like an @rse but it's basic maths.
