Gerry, Now there's a thought, sell my house, put the lot in vodafone shares, then go & live in my tent. I don't think I can do it without my wife finding out though, but I'm sure she will understand (she loves camping)!! Wish me luck?!

By 5.15:1 do you mean you get about 19%, because that's what I make it. Sorry but I don't understand what 5.15: 1 means? Do you mean 5.15 to 1?

Buy shares, If they go up tell everybody how clever you are. If they go down, blame the M.M.s The Yanks, The shorters, The brokers, Anybody, Just don't blame yourself. Simple!!??

We all had to learn about the uncrossing trade, nothing obvious about it, so I don't think halfpenny is an idiot.

I think if my investment in vod was on a horse race, the horse would be called Liberty,perhaps each way, lets hope it wins or at least gets in the frame.

Jack, The time to exit with hindsight, was Jan 2018, If I had, I would be about £100k better off than now. So with hindsight they perhaps were junk then. I could get very cheesed off, but whats the point? They may get back to the £2.36 sp of jan 18 (ok no flying pigs seen yet) But of course there is the big divi. I have always been worried about the divi coming out of the sp, which clearly it has in the recent past. But it's the future we should look at now, & I think the divi will exceed any net fall (sp -divi) in future. My biggest worry is this idea that if free cash flow is more than the divi, then that,s ok. Although I believe in vod's case this is so, as a general rule this is dangerous. If you can borrow enough money you can always generate free cash flow by investing that money to increase your profits. E.G. If I earn £2k per month, but spend £2k per month, no free cash flow, but if I borrow £60k & pay 3% apr interest I pay about £150 a month in interest. & have £60k cash flow, reducing by £ 150 a month. Of course at some time I have to pay the £60k back.The reason I bring this up is it is not as black or white as some suggest, basically it's down to gearing. At the end of the day (no pun intended) vod has to eventually make more profit than it pays in divi's, & still have enough left over to cover it's deb't. & this is the big question, how do you rate deb't with regards to the share price.

Jack, I agree, not a good time to sell, unless you really think they are a massive pile of junk.If you thought vod shares were a massive pile of junk, of course you would sell? Come on be honest? But of course you & me don't think they are a massive pile of junk. All I ask is for some on here not to talk constant emotional nonsense.

Well said, I have no idea if your figures are right, but some on here are just on another planet. The planet moan! Good luck.

Can any sensible person on here please explain to me why Vodafone ADR's trading on the nasdaq is a bad thing. The price of vod ADRs are more influenced by the LSE vod price, than vice versa. Of course, all shares are influenced by the US whether they are quoted as ADR's or not. 1 vod ADR = 10 vod shares. We live in a global stock market massively influenced by the the US. Accept it, or stick your money in a building society. IF you can't stand the heat, get out. Just stop m*****g.

If you think there junk, It's time you sold them then, It,s not rocket science.

Djones, Do you own any shares in this massive pile of junk? If so, why?

1p gain per day(Average) for 3 months would be great. However assuming a 50/50 chance per day of a rise or fall, If you could bet 1p that the vod sp would rise every day for just 4 weeks(20 working days) you would win over £500,000. For 12 weeks, £500,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.approx. So lets just hope for more rises than falls & accept the inevitable falls!

Good for share dealing as well. £10 dealing cost + free to hold I.S.A.

I don't get some of H-hi's posts. At 16.41 he appears to disagree with volcano saying vodafone is looking very good, but his previous post is a very upbeat prediction of 1.50 by the end of the week,& 1.60 by the end of the month. A 14% rise by the end of the month would be very good. I'm sure volcano meant vod is looking good for the future, not harping back to the past.

Come on baby, Light my fire!! I only mentioned Cohen, because of his sometimes very depressing lyrics. I am a big fan, though of Cohen & I like the doors as well, especially light my fire. So come on vodafone.

"Get back here & moan all you like, I am so down that I can't go lower any more" Sounds like a Leonard Cohen song!

Come on Jack, you'r not fooling anybody, we all know you are the famous J.D. International playboy. After a late recovery today, I might even do a small top up tomorrow? lets say £200k or so !?

Hkphooey, Thanks, I was concerned because I use London South East as a stockbroker, but it has a different log in & comes up as secure.

Mandrill, I am puzzled as to why you re-invest you divi in a company that you think has a stupid business strategy. Sorry, but I just wondered?

Don't worry about typo's, we all know what you meant, your damed if do & damed if you don't. I wonder if you know why on my computer this site comes as not secure, I know there are some dodgy people on it (joke) but is it safe do you think?
