Bad move sell at 80p for rolls, madness , this is the only company worth investing in. When you take everything into account it is not a gamble, just sit back and wait everything will come to those who wait

I would like hear more detail on debt reduction of the £4billion, large chunks could be paid off within the next 12 months

This is the time now until February that long haul flights increase, lead up to Xmas travellers heading for sunny climate will be big for RR. Getting exited now as investors will take note from now onwards

Great update, RR are back on track, next big date to look forward to is 23rd Feb which should include a win having signed the US Army's FLRAA programme

Virgin Atlantic launches first ‘eco’ flight from London to Florida amid promise of ‘guilt-free travel’
Great for RR as A330neo uses Trent engines

An Airbus A330neo – nicknamed Billie Holiday – was used for the flight. Virgin is the first UK airline to fly the aircraft, which is described as “one of the quietest and most fuel efficient in the sky”.

AM20, you really are talking rubbish, on every point you are incorrect

Waiting for a drop, doubt it, one way only on Thursday, upwards.
Trading update will mean we avoid a drop as investors/ fund managers will be happy with progress this year. Solid growth in back end of 2022 and into 2023 will only help increase share price

Encouraging

Britain must forge close business ties with Saudi Arabia to boost investment and to win a multibillion pound aircraft order.
Article in the times today, Saudi is reportedly close to awarding a contract for a civilian aircraft for a new airline that is setting up , after pumping in $30 billion (£26 billion). The European consortium Airbus , which in the uk has two big manufacturing sites, is competing with US rival Boeing for the deal.
My thoughts are that Airbus could be the choice, huge jobs for Britain and suppliers such as RR
Saudia has an interest in RR
RIYADH: Rolls-Royce Saudi Arabia, a wholly-owned subsidiary of British aerospace and defense firm Rolls-Royce Holdings, aims to reach 80 percent Saudization by the end of 2023 as it is actively creating job opportunities for the nationals.

Apologies Thursday not Wednesday https://www.thearmchairtrader.com/companies-reporting-bp-rolls-royce-gsk-next-sainsbury/

Seems to me that a Fund manager with privilege information has splashed out before RR Wednesday trading update knowing he will make big gains.
