Rox, if the bossy one had read my posting I was having a go at mansion2 certainly not you, cheers

3300, I was having a joke, we al need to lighten up.
Don’t start the defending of others please, we’re all big boys & girls here.

Rox is the anti-hero, maybe he could give some shares tips to mansion

Did any day traders get caught out by the bounce?
Sincerely hope not.

Just had a little Stroll, pardon the pun, and I was thinking that we’ve had no news, or have we?
The Chinese CEO for sales gave a fair bit away, when he said we had more or less caught up on sales for the year, and we certainly would by the end of the year.
What interested me is he said the average age of a Aston Martin driver/owner had dropped as low as the 20’s.
That is quite significant in as much as young Chinese drivers aren’t going to be buying the DBX, which was targeted at ‘rich Asian ladies’, who like to be chauffeur driven.
So they’re going to be buying the sports cars which were once mainly driven by the wealthy older people,I used to think of some old guy like Piers Morgan in a Aston Martin, now we have young entrepreneurs etc looking for sports cars, and everyday driveable sports cars.
Ferrari’s are not everyday driveable, owners bring them out on a Sunday and are more interested in keeping them very low mileage, and are considered ostentatious.
Lamborghini’s the same, and a struggle to get in and out of.
Porsche are probably going to be our main rival as they can be used everyday, and are a usable sports car.
So although we look at the DBX, we may be missing the trick, as our sports cars are grand tourers, roomier, more comfortable and seen as having more class than most sports cars.
Remember how popular MR2 sports cars with Chinese?
Well the Chinese are a much richer nation now and the real growth could come from the sports cars.
With the internet the rich are much younger than they were 15/20 years ago.
I believe the news blackout is so they can deliver real news, not ‘smoke & mirrors.

Nevas, I agree we end up back in the same place, but we know for certain there is or has been a massive seller, don’t forget the seller had around 1/3 of the company at one time.
I was one of the first to see & say it was being conStrolled, but is that a good thing or a bad thing?
With such a big seller the price could easily have been pushed down to 30p, but the selling has been managed possibly by both the seller & AML.
It’s not worth AML buying the stock because the money would go to the seller & out of the company’s account.
Maybe other members of Stroll’s consortium are just buying more stock for themselves personally and have been advised that it’s worth topping up further as these levels.
One thing is certain if the shares were only worth 25p, they would be 25p, or less.
If it’s being held up it is because they believe it is worth 50p or more, but the seller hovering there is like trying to push water up a hill.
It will become clear soon, until then we can only speculate as to why.

Nevas, that’s a bit heavy, can you enlarge on that?

Yeah I bought 30,000 and it came back as two trades, 13,132 & 16,868, then I had to do a 2000,160 and 10.
The 30,000 must get taken by two different mm’s, my old broke said one minute mm’s are working together, next they are cutting each other throats.
Anyway I ended up happy for a change.

We’ve all been moaning about finishing on 50p, I’d be happy if it finishes there today.

Cheers test, annoying thing about 212 is I had to do it in four lots, as you must maintain a 10% balance, so you have to break it down into lots, ffs it’s our money.

Just bought 32,170 back, in four lots 30,000, 2000, 160 & 10.
Had a nice profit out of Vir

Thanks 3300.

Very philosophical David.

Good, it’s only ever banter or winding up with me Rox, no offence intended.

Still got a cob on with me Rox?

3300, where are they pre-market, I’ve got 543 shares to sell.

It was JP Morgan who had us at 30p so GS is a big up on that.

3300, your all heart.

Toto Wolff states he’s ‘not a big corporation guy’.
Again does nothing to confirm his allegiance to Daimler.
either, but states he doesn’t want to get involved in road cars, but that doesn’t discount him joining the Aston Martin/Racing Point team.

Toto Wolff Mercedes

Asked on Formula 1’s Beyond The Grid podcast if he would ever consider having 100% his own grand prix team bearing his name, Wolff replied: “First of all it’s not a great omen, I think. You don’t want to call it Wolff.

“There is no product ‘Wolff’ that I could endorse like some other companies, and I think with the partner, Mercedes-Benz, I am really staggered every time I think about it.

“There are not many people out there that can say they are a partner with Mercedes-Benz.

“I’ve been doing this for a few years now, my relationship with the Daimler management is more than intact, so I don’t see any sense in running a Toto team because the power of the brand of Mercedes is so strong. I feel honoured to represent them.”

Another notion Wolff has dismissed is that he could remain within the Mercedes structure but move away from the motorsport branch of the operation, having repeatedly says he “enjoys the stopwatch”.

“We discussed whether I should transition into the road car side but that’s not for me,” he added.

“I’m not a big corporation guy. I’ve always had my own companies and I think Ola Kallenius and the other board members very much value this as a competitive advantage, that the team is run in a very entrepreneurial way.

“So there is no desire in going on the automotive side. I enjoy running a sports team.”

Even i’m starting to think about day trading, it seems so predictable, Sod’s law if I did it would jump up.
