No beer ? IMO should keep the smaller breweries open. Wychwood (home to Hobgoblin) next to go, excuse being 'By making use of the break clause in our lease for Wychwood Brewery, we can consolidate our brewing network to achieve greater efficiency and productivity, supporting ongoing investment in our people and business'. So efficient there is not enough beer to go around. Do not believe Hobgoblin brewed elsewhere will taste the same.
Damn, hot weather means there is not a single empty table in pub garden, and inside is rammed (not Youngs). To make matters worse, they have sold out of Pedigree on pump, thank god there are some bottles. Told by bar staff that scorching September, which is expected to continue over weekend, has ignited the blue touch paper and saved summer after wet August. Excellent news...

Deutsche Bank believes BT’s consumer division is in decent shape.
Plenty of ideas around convergence (?), customer experience and new products as well as cost opportunities via digital.
Frees up Kirkby to focus 'on more pressing projects' such as regulatory and employee relations, B2B, IT upgrades and headcount reduction.
Hold 145p target.
Wonder what price the other Deutsche has in mind, or has BT been left on shelf ?
No retail banking experience so not tainted by past banking follies sources claim. However, great article in Guardian describing his role in one of the worlds greatest financial scandals involving embezzlement of 1 bill from Malaysian wealth fund. Now faces questions over whether it was a misjudgment to work for the UK arm of the oil services firm PetroSaudi and whether he adequately responded to warnings of a scandal. Beyond belief ...

With Reuters, reaffirming his renewable strategy. IMO could throw bucket of cold water over sp, but may be wrong. Interesting he believes evs have won private transport battle when so many households simply are unable to charge from home.
Invezz chartist says :
- sp made bullish breakout on Friday.
- Crude oil prices soared after Russia supported OPEC+ supply cuts. Cartel likely to slash production at meeting next week.
- crossed resistance at 491.25p.
- jumped above 50-day moving average and invalidated double-top pattern that has been forming. Oscillators like the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the MACD point upwards.
- sp could jump by 7.50% to resistance at 538p.
IMO could go further.
Broomfielder, they are not asleep at the wheel but hiding behind couch hoping that everything will blow over and they won't get a present from santa, ie the sack. Rumour has it that the sack is exactly what chairman will be getting by new year, but what a lucky man he is, we all know it will be full of gold. On bright side, a new broom should spike the sp ...
Agree with Jezzoo. After the shock of seeing 5 at front of sp, asked chart what next. Chart says expect similar spike as last Feb, when oil price spiked, meaning rapid rise to 550-560. IMO, chart could well be right but I am down pub and asked Golden Hobgoblin Got same answer ! Happy daze ...
