Well it certainly wasnt worth you spending £2.74 almost 3 years on 19/03/2019 was it!
But try and deflect away and insult. Your not very good at that either.

The only thing positive inside BOO is the one end of the battery in the office clock.

Funny how all the green boxes appear each time BOO dips to 100. LOL. Still 100% above their 50p nonsense.

And just what % are we lower than your utter bolox £4.50 predictions Doug? My calculator doesnt have enough digits.
You have absolutely ZERO credability.

4 1/2 hours if you look back.

Didn't take the troll long. Must have a crush on me - follows me everywhere

Correction. You had £3.3k here. Now worth £2.5k
So down 32%.
You must be loaded playing with buttons like this lol

But you sold at New Year Doug "after seeing no progress" didnt you.
Thats what you said you was going to do? or did you tell yet more porkies?
Still a long looong way back to your breakeven buy price. £2.78 was it again?
Keep ramping, you might get your money back one day - although of course its been dead money to boot for a few years now.
You only have a measely £1k in here anyway, complete faker is what you are.

"final dip"
Now there's a bit of glorious unfounded optimism if i ever heard it.

Good days they were. I borrowed some money against my house back then from Woolwich at a good rate 2-3% or something i cant remember exactly but that area. When the cash landed i took it straight over to Coventry Building society and managed to get a rate of 6.7%.
Silly buggers were actually paying me more money than it cost to borrow it. Wish i could do that again lol

Well didnt quite make it monday as thought it might, but gets there in the end.
I can almost hear the apologises from here?

i watched a program on the use of the blunt interest rate hikes the other day and youd be surprised how few people it really effects. Lots of people dont have a mortgage, having bought ages ago or paid it off, renters, multigenerational occupiers etc etc or have a fixed rate for a few years where interest rates wont affect them for a while. Cant remember the exact numbers but i was quite suprised how low the affected number were.
One thing is crystal clear though - they wont be raising saving rates by the same amount.

Exactly Billy, i can see the 2030 ICE ban being rolled back a bit, interesting the £200 leccy discount is being recovered over the following five years @ £40/year, when they think leccy rates will be going down. Dont think they realise nothing goes down in reality!

Did exactly this on Giles other company KZG just yesterday. Very strange.
Seems to be operating a barter based system nowadays?

"I actually cashed out of a sharesave scheme DT, during my employment. Companies and HMRC limit the maximum amount you can invest in sharesaves, which are often over 3 or 5 years. Like a lot of people in sharesaves, I'd taken the maximum allowable amount of investment in a scheme, and two thirds of the way through the shares had fallen well below my discounted price. A new sharesave was coming up, and I wanted to ditch my existing scheme to allow full investment in the new discounted scheme, so I cashed in the current scheme, used the cash to buy shares on the market at the current price, and entered the new scheme as soon as it became available. It was a no brainer at the time, as I collected as many shares via the open market, with the cash recovered from the existing sharesave scheme, even though it was less cash than I would have invested through the scheme; And it allowed me to invest in the new scheme."

Different 8ndustry but have done exactly the same myself, makes perfect sense after a 'cheap' scheme offer.

blimey thats some fall.

Other advantages of being in the plan are. if you are made redundant, can generally cash in. Same if the business is taken over usually can cash in then as well.
Read all the small print and rules and decide what fits you :)

If you're a BT employee why would you buy BT shares outside of the BT schemes that are offered at a discount to the market value!! BT sharesave scheme along with Direct Share are a win win for BT employees."

Because you dont actually receive the shares until the end of the fixed period, when you can take up your option, you dont get the dividends during the time the scheme is running. So, most of these schemes offer a price reduction based on the market price at the time the option os granted - typically a 20% discount to encourage take up. In effect (with a decent divi payer) your 20% is eroded over the 3/5 years while you wait for your option to mature. I.e. you get no discount in real terms and tie up your cash. And if you leave before the terms up you just get your money back with nothing extra.

Now, consider the alternative of actually buying shares with your monthly 'payment' each month directly from your wages, instead of taking up the option. Firstly, you get no discount on your shares (negative) but you do own them from that second and receive divis (positive). Each month you do the same, your owned share balance rises and so does your divis, and you can sell them whenever you want as they are yours from date of purchase (positive). You do have to be a regular buyer and diciplined however and some arent.
One advantage of the option offering that is well worth weighing into the equation is the fact that you buy the shares at the end of the period, and CG is based on that dates price. So if shares triple during the plans 3 years (be nice eh!) then that gain if effectively CG free at the point they mature. If you bought outside of a plan each month and the same tripling happened you maybe liable for CG.
With all these plans it is never as cut and dried as the suggestion on the application.

Very true but one would expect critical equipment users to have a few spares knocking around or be availible, its why plant operators try to standardise. Although i do know from links i have into a high tech electronics manufacturing business specialising in battery packs, oil rig control devices, military equipment and similar essential stuff, the costs of such spares are generally through the roof currently - but they are availible if the wallet wants emptying.
If you look back on all of Glens updates over recent years you will note the same reduction in productivity on most products, unfortunately, its not a recent/covid related issue but a more general trend.
Not got any Fres etc but they have had a right beasting of late, very odd considering the usual safe haven for gold/silver in times of woe. Still cant work that one out myself.

ahhhh. . . coke = oil.
I must need a drink lol

Down on everything production wise (as usual) except coal coke and chrome.
Its actually quite a good job the unit rates are all so high.
Declining output = declining company in a normal world.
