Jack, just wait for the usual pm moaning hour, 3.30 to 4.30! I think this site has been down most of the day (as has the sp). Perhaps the 1% -2% rise tomorrow? Lets hope so.

Now you are really worrying me! Surely if you are all playing with this algo, chartist mumbo jumbo, you are just playing against each other? I.E. Is fleccy better than Jack or vise versa? Of course I am asking this question to be advised, but from my angle it makes no sense. Sorry, but I really do want to learn? For every winner there has to be a loser, & there are always more losers than winners if you are betting on the the stock market (bookmakers are not charities) (spread bet, C.F.Ds etc) If you buy shares & hold however, in the long run most make a profit. I know this is hard to understand for some, but although I am down on vod & no expert on the stock market, I am however an expert on bookmakers, which is who you are up against if you spread bet or do C.F.D. If you buy& sell short term, then stamp duty & commission will kill any profits in the long run unless you are much better than average, which by definition means most of you will lose money. But good luck, & thanks again for any advice you can throw my way.

Fleccy, I think we all have to accept that in a capitalist system nothing is completely fair. But if we accept that said fact, the stock market is no worse, My beef of course(like many long term holders of shares) is the big shorts that undermine a share price, but that I guess is the modern way. I am holding(I would buy more at this low price) if I had the extra funds & i.s.a allowance.

I am thinking of giving up Indian curry in protest (moan, moan) Oh, then again, nothing like a good curry to cheer me up after a bad day on the stock market, good day today though. If we are up tomorrow, I think vod will be hot! Nice to see no moaners today, boring, but nice. Just wait for the fall (hopefully never) for the standard moaning hour!!?? Usual suspects!!

Thank's for your reply, although I have been a vod share holder for about 20 years, I am still learning, so I hope you don't mind me learning from you & others. Your much agree post to h-hi interests me, he has filtered me, so I can say what I like about him,(only joking). I just find him & some others have a very cynical attitude, suggesting the market is very bent, bent M M 's, U S markets are crooked etc. etc. Am I being naive, or perhaps it's the expletive,constant moronic moaning of him & some others on here that annoys me. I.E. vod is a crock of **** This is taking the piss. here we go again **** the U.S is screwing us. etc. etc.etc At least last call was funny. Mad, but funny. I just think that if you buy shares, you should except the risk, & if things go wrong, don't complain. I am losing money on vod. My fault, nobody else.

Hello jack, I am interested in your post at 8.53. Are you saying that if private investors take out huge shorts, this doesn't effect the vod sp? By shorts, do you mean C.F.Ds & spread bets? I too welcome the reason rises,due to paper losses. I am glad I was away last week, as I think I would have been very worried with the low sp.

I was away last week so missed the return of L.C. Sounds like he upset a lot of people on here as usual. What crazy nonsense was he banging on about this time. I have to confess, although he is very annoying, I find him very funny at times, but I think it's fair to say, lately, he seems to have lost all credibility. I gather from some of your posts, he's made some wild predictions on other share chats?

What does AMAP mean in your post? I googled it & got approved mileage allowance payments. Your posts are sometimes very detailed, but confusing at times. Not all of us are into the lingo! Thanks.

Thanks Gerry, Unfortunately, although I held for a while, I sold all my verizon shares & re-invested into vod. Big mistake with hindsight. Vod sp ticking up nicely today though. I just hope the divi isn't cut, as, if it was, I might be forced to sell some vod shares, at a big loss, to raise funds. Good luck anyway, I think we all need it. I think the crucial element is how successful the liberty tie up will be?

Gerry, Surely if the divi is cut, that would blow all your past reasoning for vod being a good investment out of the window? or am I reading you wrong?

Assuming you are the same moniman who predicted the demise of the vod sp last year, even before last call, I am very interested in your latest bullish stance. You called it right then, but did I listen? No. Am I listening now? Yes.

Jackdawson. Re the 200k director buy. 40,000 in uk. + 14,000 ADR's . 40k + 14k A.D.R's 40k + (14k x 10) = 180,000 , almost 200k. I ADR = 10 vod shares.

Djones, Why would they fly? City just said buy, no target. Director buys £250k Not a lot!! All they did was recover a bit. This is not an AIM stock, or a fruit machine!

I thought a good late recovery, higher than after the spike on director buys & city buy. If you gamble, you need to be positive, otherwise buy insurance, don't invest on the stock market.

Welcome back Mrd. I thought you sold the lot. You are back in at a bargain price this time, I think, Just remember to keep enough money this time for next Christmas! Hopefully when the sp goes back above £2, you will be able to tell Mrsd!!? I am still waiting for Tom to come back on board.

I think it made the sp shoot up,(see the spike) Unfortunately, something else caused the sp to plummet afterwards.

About £250k worth. L.S.E. shares + U.S. A.D.R's

I am definitely staying resilient & think the Liberty deal is the make or break of vodafone, lets hope the former. I suppose I am so deeply invested in vod now, I am not prepared to bail out & take a heavy loss. Wish me luck, I think we all need it. Good luck & lets hope the divi holds up.

Merry Mikey. I have just noticed your post from last Thursday! You should try it more often?! Its much better than moaning!
