@Truthisgood I see that too, so much so, that I've bought a speculative punt holding in AFC

@aobfc cheers - saves me the time and money to look

I did find a tweet/X from him 3 weeks ago apparently but in keeping with my Luddite tendencies I don't use it so don't know exactly what it said

We can certainly agree that it is yet another shakedown on the populous

Hmm @wyndrum "alternatives are being put in place" - yes Hydrogen electrolysers as part of the Military-Industrial-Complex of Europe being mobilised.

Yes, only 20% of global oil comes through the Strait - so richer nations will likely be able to pay the additional costs to procure supply - but less developed nations won't be able to compete (and yet they produce a lot of global food). However, being able to pay the price won't matter when the physical stocks are depleted.

33% of fertiliser comes through the Strait - so richer nations will likely be able to pay the additional costs to procure supply - but less developed nations won't be able to compete (and yet they produce a lot of global food). However, being able to pay the price won't matter when the physical stocks are depleted and not only that, the fertiliser is needed now to produce the crops we need to eat in 4-6 months time.

BoE has accepted a "worse case" scenario of 6.6% inflation in the UK - BoE never gives accurate forecasts intentionally to try and change the outcome, so it is reasonable to infer that is actually the best case scenario - realistic scenario is 1970s-like secondary inflation spike of around 10% or more.

11-14million people are below 60% of annual median income in UK - so while you and I and others here may be insulated from the bulk of the inflation spike that is already baked in - they aren't.

The world will keep on turning but life for the people in it is going to be impacted

Enjoy the weekend

What think you @Momentum5? The hour candle chart looks to be creating a flag from yesterday to maybe trigger a breakout on Tuesday? Along with the uptrend on the day candles.

Well the broker best get on with making those calls then :-D

Here's a question - if they were to go pop before they could buyback what the owe and return them to the true holders - what happens? The true holders have lost their shares or what?

I figured that was the usual tree-shake to try and flush out cheap shares but looks like most are listening to Bilbo now and not using auto-sell. Not much fell out and the volume dried up, they have to keep ratcheting up to get anything. But they can't just sit and wait until boredom sets in as there's too much risk of news coming. On my chart it looks to be trying to get back to the old up-trend after the rally started this time last year - 170 slap bang in the middle of that.

But it only a reading - I'm no clairvoyant

I've been glancing at the almost live candles on ADVFN - I think the price is having to rise to fill the short buyback - they keep trying but no-one is really selling. That's my read of it? How about you @Eastwood? If it carries on think we may well see a run at 170

Volume well down this morning, little shake, nothing fell out, they will have to up the price...

Indeed Bilbo - I posted this on 26th April in a reply

absolutely. We are at the start of a 70s inflation double spike - it is baked in now with the fuel rises on top of two massive tax & spend budgets. No stopping it. Batten down the personal hatches but the industrial shift to hydrogen a way out of the mess.

Haha 50K+ @158 right at the bell - didn't dare risk the UT :-D

I make it they dumped about 100k shares there to try and spook following that RNS and got zip :-D better buy them back before the close - a UT north of 160 gonna cost £10k :-D

Yawn

Yet another tree shake, they keep trying but don't seem to be picking up many?

I'd prefer it if they continue the 2nd week of May tradition from last year, little one, big one, little one, huge one

Hi @Momentum5 yes, I see what you see, if you trace it back you will find, I think that it is almost perfect with the channel that formed after the breakout last year from about 50p up to 90p which it keeps trying to get back to - but there were lots of games last year when some of our friends increased their short positions.

Our friends are trying to manage their exits but if one of the FIDs comes in, this will jump back into the channel and probably through it.

Odd sequence of trades at 12:03?

And here come the shake
