The blame lies with Manuel Llobet, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, once is forgiven, twice is incompetent. He needs to be dismissed and let go with minimum share options as he has failed miserably over the past 2 years

This has surprised many including myself, now we have broken the £3 barrier, the next news will hopefully be the Turkish Airline orders that was agreed in principal that have now been signed off. Additional to this any SMR updates from the meeting in the Czech Republic and also from the UK on RR being the principal contractor for SMR design and build modules. We then have the potential buyer for the electric division to be announced soon, taking all this into account the £4.31 target could be achievable if these things get all signed off
I maybe not explaining it clearly enough, once it is in the ISA it is tax free, yes you have to sell and buy back but this takes minutes and what you lose in those few minutes is gained to have this in your ISA. If not you pay CGT, one thing to remember is the allowance is shrinking again in 2024 so makes no sense to keep them outside the ISA
I have done this a few times, it allows you to transfer up to £20k, it’s a very small difference in the sell and buy back, worth every penny in the long run. It’s a tax wrapper that is the best thing you can get to avoid CGT
Allows the government to show some transparency when awarding the SMR contract to RR next year.
30million funding for Holtec to complete Steps 1 and 2 of the Generic Design Assessment (GDA) as the first step towards UK deployment of our Small Modular Reactor SMR-300.
Have faith in Tufan and RR making this happen.

I know most know of this deal but worth adding to it, this is very positive news for both Airbus and RR, the order could be 52 XWB-97 engines in total. After months on deliberating, Cathay Pacific said it has agreed to buy six Airbus A350F jets for approximately $2.7 billion in a filing with the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
It has also secured the rights to purchase a further 20 Airbus freighter aircraft.
In the long-running rivalry between the world’s two largest aircraft manufacturers, this was a significant battle. Cathay’s choice between the A350F and Boeing’s 777 freighter was closely watched as the airline operates passenger jets of both models.
Reading this explains why Airbus plans to use the XWB-97 engine on the A350F to offer greater payload and range than competitors.
