Everyone getting excited about £8. We were above that 4 years ago!

"£2 mark will be a distant memory"

September 2022 is not that distant!

Anyone know anything about Sungrow (Chinese Electrolyser manufacturer)? They've just been awarded the contract for ATOME's Paraguay project.

I thought CPH2 had already been selected as supplier of electrolysers to Atome's Paraguay project, but this morning they have announced it is going to Sungrow (Chinese)

C Shares - will have the ticker SSIC

"Free Breakfast for shareholders" - been available for quite a while. Also get 10% off food and soft drinks at other times.

Anybody ever been to an AGM before? I was thinking of going this week, just wondered if it is worth it.

I was hoping the days of raising extra capital was behind them. I guess they have some institutional investors keen to get in on the act, so Private investors are offered a smidgen at a small discount.

One of the richest African Countries in natural resources, but in GDP per capita it's one of the poorest.

That's one corrupt country best avoided.

This is basically the same business with the same double digit annual growth in income that it was when the share price was double. At that point it was over valued by any sane criteria, but such a large drop is ridiculous.

I agree, but in today's market everything is falling. What surprises me is it's one of the biggest fallers.

This was massively overpriced for ages. It has dropped a long way, yes, but now it is priced at a discount similar to the majority of investment trusts. In the mean time they are getting double digit income growth, so the future of the company still looks good.

I'd almost forgotten about this. Good news.

I sent an email to the company concerned about the staff working in the Gulf. Simon replied in person, in under an hour. All the folk out there are OK and continuing working, and not looking to return. Work has been affected, but continues fairly well. and, as has been already said, he believes this war should help business in the long term.

Most of Luceco's products are made in China I believe. Most are shipped on boats, which come up through the Suez, which is, I believe getting stalled with the war. How badly will this affect business?

A large market for Hikma. Is war good or bad for sales of Pharmaceuticals?

I think most of the pharmaceuticals sold by Hikma in the US are made there so free from tariffs.

Sainsburys have spent the last few years moving Argos stores off the high street into their supermarkets. Great move - keeps the sales but reduces the costs.

why would they think about selling it? And who'd want it with the stores inside another company's stores?

My reading was that rather than a threat, AI is being embraced and utilised by MONY

Turnover is vanity. Profits are sanity. Argos sales are down what 1%? That's not very much. With many of the stores being moved from stand alone shops to being inside Sainsbury supermarkets their cost base will be shrinking, so profits almost certainly up.
