No rally this week was down to insider knowledge, when we started to walk down midweek I knew I should of threw the towel in. Very disappointed as I invested during the first omnicron downturn and pledged to sell may 22, I am up what 2%.. might aswell of stuck it in the regular saver. This should be at 160 right now.
Yeah I still can’t quite get how this went to 110, if I could of cashed out some of my savings quick enough I would of gone all in, whoever was selling, well.. very strange strategy.
Huge reversal in bound, writing is in the wall. I honestly would be surprised to see 190+ end of April - IMO. But 150 will see a lot of II cash out who scooped mega cheap shares.
Also expect defence companies to do well in 12-36 months ;)
First time I have been red with IAG for a while. Sucks. I also hovered over the sell button at 177 but couldn’t really envisage a drop this brutal. It still does not really make all that much sense, this is more brutal than the omnicron variant and coming up close to the general pandemic, which is madness when you consider the implications on flight of the pandemic vs an area of the world (which is rarely not at war let’s be honest).
I know it’s not ideal but Ukraine should spare the bloodshed and capitulate with deals - once NATO confirmed they would not get involved to me that would be a signal to surrender to prevent loss of life. I fear the Ukrainian president is out of depth and trying to ‘crusade’ based on being hailed a ‘hero’ by western media… lol.. quite the opposite, and the tables would soon turn should nato escalation mean more blood spilt, much more blood.
Only so many will sell. It’s so oversold right now and shorted. This drop has mainly been engineered, it will go up as quick as it came down and the champagne will be flowing in Canary Wharf.
This war is dumb, the writing is already on the walls for Ukraine, I generally don’t think putin wants to flatten the place he just wants to make it clear that NATO is not an option. And well the west will do ‘everything’ it can which is code for nothing. This hype around world war 3 and nukes is just ridiculous, lazy journalism to create panic. Put has done what has done for geopolitical reasons as well as resources, but he has done it when the world is at its weakest, covid etc, a US president that needs an abacus to count, woke EU falling apart and at loggerheads, headed up by a bunch of flannels, if there ever was a time, it was obviously going to be now.
If you think there will be a world war then you need to shake your head a little - the west would sooner throw Ukraine under the bus than get involved in that sort of activity…….. The trouble is Putin knows that!
II’s played a blinder today, they walked it down with shorts and retail got shook and sold out. Truly bent over. Even in times of war greed is still greed.
I am also sat here wondering where greenpeace and all the other w4nkers that moan about our nuclear deterrent and defence spends, where are they?! I’d like to see them on the news lol. My bets are that they’re sipping vanilla lattes, talking about refugees and how we need to move the entire population of Ukraine into Swindon. Ohhhh and knitting flags in the Ukrainian colours to wrap themselves.
Jotom,
Your a strange one - if the turds hadn’t campaigned against nuclear energy in the 70s,80s and so on we would be laughing now in terms of energy reliance. Same with oil and gas exploration - we have been shackled by hemp stricken hippies who prefer the carbon issue to be moved off shore and the product then shipped to us. It’s laughable, and I worry that some are still taken in by these mystical ideals!
I’m not going to go into covid now, it’s long gone but I will say we wasted 2 years fighting something which you cannot fight - and the cost to economic and general well-being has been huge as a result. Put it this way, if we hadn’t arsed about with masks and lockdowns omnicron would of happened 18 months earlier and you would be sipping rum out of a coconut on a far away beach living your best life. Lol. We delayed covid, by a huge amount, what have we gained? Absolutely noooooothing. Look forward to your response.
All I can say is the world is cruel, all those people shtting their pants for the last 2 years over covid now have to have this rammed down their throats. Funny how media have dropped covid like a stone now something more juicy and scary. They can’t get enough of it. This will inevitably pass, sooner the better of course but it will be dragged out as Putin is loving it.
Blame green peace and all those turds who campaigned against us being energy independent, we are now on our knees to these nutters and will be forever more. Good one green brigade!!
What did I tell you boys, I did guesstimate an 8% rise today but il take an overshoot.
This is you capn speaking, all IAG shareholders please fasten your seatbelts whilst we taxi towards take off. Cleared for 300p. Champagne is free and the ladies are good looking.
Hearing the news this morning and all the New Years honours, mainstream media quoting ‘the scientists and experts who were at the forefront of the battle against covid 19 have been honoured’ - talking as if the war is won, I’d see this as a green flag for a fruitful year, load the boat, book some hollibobs we’re going flying chaps, with our nutsacks out at 37k ft! Happy new year and GLA for 2022.
So I’m balls deep in IAG now, the last 2 weeks has shown us the true bottom, we have tested mid 120’s with serious overseas buy in around those levels into 130s, we can be certain institutions are loading their boats as we speak as we head into the new year. Omicron is a gift, we just have not unwrapped it yet.
The pent up demand to get out of this country for 2 weeks is palpable! Could be a fantastic 2022!
