Fleccy. Both sentences mean exactly the same? Bloody anti not confusing, but not wrong?!

fleccy. Well spotted, I didn't notice that error on your part! Too many double negatives I guess??! But apart from your error, your post was spot on! The mannisman **** up was I think 3 C.E.O.'s ago, so forget it. The realistic sp for vod is to be determined based on the present, I have a lot faith in Nick Read, but I may be wrong? But my money is just below my nose! Keep it coming. We can't let that nasty mole-man get the better of us can we!!!

fleccy, If I could have done more than 1 recommend for your post I would have .I like the way you agree when you need to, but as you say, why do you think vod is not undervalued?. I have been invested in vod for over 20 years & remember the mannisman over valuation disaster very well, but that doesn't mean vod isn't undervalued now. Of course the vod valuation when it took over mannisman was with hindsight way overvalued. Some on here just need to stop living in the past? We live in a totally different world now, so move on.

Moneyboy. Is the winner, with his 1.32. me 2nd 1.30 & last goes to UMM. You know who? the happy one, 9 DOWNS to 1 up. Still he loves to be proven wrong, so a great day for him as well? Tomorrow though? Is it going to be a "here we go again day", or a no comment day from you know who? Who knows? Perhaps the evil mole-man will give his opinion!!!

Carrington. I hope the re investment of divi's does push up the sp, but I don't think in the past it has, & I think the vast majority of divi's are not re invested? For me the main advantage of a high divi is a good income without having to sell shares. Do the institutional investors re invest the divi? Anybody know what % of divi is re-invested? I have promised myself I will not buy any more vod shares in the near future, but it is almost an addiction that I have? Still, it's all good fun.

Narcus. Now you should know better than to tell me things like that, I now have a vision of Mikey on all fours tucking in to a bowl of Pedigree Chum. DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN, boy. So is it DOWN again tomorrow, woof,woof?

Narcus. Well 1st, I am glad to see you are in profit with vod, so well gone. As for the mole being a paid de-ramper, well I thought that we all agreed that posting on here will make no difference to the share price? Still what do I know, I own a Tesco mobile? Doesn't make me a bad person?

mole-man. I am sorry my question drew criticism, but although I disagree with your negative stanch, I welcome your opinion. As for comparing you to Mikey, that is ludicrous, & a total insult to you.

mole-man. Sorry , but I am not quite sure what the point of your last two posts was. Are you saying despite the Cevian intervention vod is still a bad investment at the current sp?, what do you think is a fair sp?

moleman. Do you get 10% return on your investments after costs? If so, I think you have done very well. Be honest now?

Hello Money5000. Well I am finding it hard to stop laughing at the moment as someone on here has completely lost the plot, but I will try. I don't know what the results will be like, but a fun guess for the close for me is 1.30, but if the sp falls then so be it.

Well it is pretty obvious what you do, you go long big time on vod early tomorrow, then an hour later you go short big time then close your position at the end of the day. You will be so rich, you can then retire early. Or you can just do you what you do all the time if that is what makes you happy. I think I have given up on you, but good luck with whatever you decide to do. Of course you could always just realise that vod shares go up & go down the same as most shares do, & accept it as most investors do. Your choice?

Hello robeo. On this site, London south east,click on trading & you can open an I.S.A. account which is free to hold your shares in. The dealing charge is £9.95 flat rate per trade, the same as it's nominee dealing account. If you don't deal often definitely worth moving. I used to be with I.G. but had to open a C.F.D. or spread betting account (dangerous)to get a free I.S.A. account. They later started charging for my I.S.A. so I moved. If you regularly deal then there may be better deals. I also used to be with H.L. but I am much better off with London south east. I think H.L. charge more than the 9.95 I pay for dealing as well as the I.S.A. charge. Good luck. Shame about today so far, but we all knew the sp could fall back, so no point complaining eh? just keep throwing the dice!

losealot. Thanks for that tip, I won't be using the i g platform then. I used to use i.g.as my broker & had a free i.s.a. until they started charging. I use this site now, london south east who do a free i.s.a. Steer clear of I.G. is my advice. Unless you want to losealot!

Oh no Mikey, The end of the world, the 1.30 shop is the next stop. You need to practice playing shakes & ladders.. That's how the stock market works. You may get it one day?? Until you do, good luck mate!

Hello robleo. You ask a very good question, but I have to admit that as a gambler,I would get more annoyed with myself if I sold & the sp went up, than If I held & it went down. But I don't gamble more than I can afford to lose. I am chasing my losses, but If the divi holds, I will be doing ok even if the sp falls in the long run. My overall divi return is still over 4%, so better than many other investments. I am retired as you probably know, & if vod went bust tomorrow I would still be ok. Suicidal perhaps?, but financially ok, I think??!! Anyway I had £160 on Rafa Nadal (my hero) to win the ozzi open at 6/4. ok peanuts compared the vod sp change, but good. Sorry if I sound like a crazy gambler, but you are all just gamblers. Of course the stock market is a far better way to gamble that with the bookies,as long as you don't think you know it all? Me I know nothing, but live in hope. My only advise is watch you costs. I.E. Stamp duty, dealing costs, you can easily lose 5% to10% or more a year buying & selling. Unless of course you have that much desired crystal ball?

losealot. The yanks get more, My mum would say, There over fed, over sext, over paid & over here! But we won the war. Now though we want the Germans & the yanks on our side! Oh! & Mikey of course, sorry almost forgot!!?

Hi Pete, Yeh, I get it now, nudge nudge wink wink, say no more? I always wondered what that was you put at the end sometimes, not seen it before,but I like it? Not a lot, but it's cool? Obviously not such a good a finish for the sp after a great start, but keep up the smiley face, I can see it now with my head sideways! Lets hope I don't have to have my head on upside down, to have a happy face tomorrow?! Have a good day! Sorry about all the have's, but there are the have's & the have nots!? Snakes & ladders, That's life!?

Hi Pete. " What" ! , does ;-) mean smiley face? Did you just make that up? What's the one for a grumpy face then? ;-( ?. ------. I think :-) would make more sense though , unless you have one wonky eye? Just keep smiling though & you can't go wrong?

compound. If you needed the dosh, then selling is wise of course, but you sound like the classic pump & dumper to me?! I am joking of course. If it wasn't for the divi, I would have to sell some as well.
