YES -Brass , Indeed-
One can only wonder as to how much of what we are witnessing from him has it’s roots in some form of a personal trauma in the recent past!? Anyway- enough time wasted on that subject.
I Agree. We all make good and bad decisions on daily bases and investing in shares is no exception!
The recent 2 rounds of weaknesses in the R1 share price (down to 150s) did allow me to seriously bring my average down to similar levels to yours, whilst accumulating the quantity of shares I had planned to land-up with since 2-3 years ago. So it kind of has worked out for me OK so far albeit via an unexpected route and timescales.
Also Agree- This merger will take us to a whole new level in terms of synergies and economies of scale needed to play against the big boys effectively. R1 on its own may have carved itself a small niche, servicing premium end of the market and even made some reasonable Net Profit eventually but I guess as someone said, it’s a question of AMBITION.
Do you as a company keep reinvesting to grow to play at the top of the premier league (however painful and uncertain that may be in the short term), OR do you settle for less and go for an easier ride.
The Big Institutions seem to be piling in for now and support the above with more and more investment. Hardly a sign of a failing Merger with no prospects.
Pay your money and take your choice/risk as they say. Happy to wait a little longer for a much bigger prize
