"can't go anywhere else but up???" That's not my experience. I doubt there is a single one person in profit here.

If it comes back there will be dilution and probably consolidation.

We live in hope.

Sorry you have a crusty base Italian...FXPO will do that to you. Think positive and plan ahead for disaster. Be an Ant not a grasshopper...or at least be a positive Ant .

Thinking positive otherwise = blind faith.

The War was speculative ..until it happened. THE most important criteria is if you buy or hold shares will you be able to sell them when you want.

The rest ,the business model, the price of pellets, tax , production levels, Whether there is a dodgy get fiddling the company etc..is irrelevant in the face of : Nothing!

LOl. I think it will be pointed out to the trumpy at some point that copper tariffs will cripple American Industries.. The yanks only produce approx half the copper they use currently.

I certainly am free to invest where I chose and free to comment where I see fit. I have invested in FXPO in the past and done ok.

After 55 years of investing I can tell you charting is useful in Large companies that pay divi's and rise and fall seasonally. Absolutely worthless in a share driven by events which are out of investors control.

Learning to use charts and signals is very interesting but seemingly the time to use them or not is lost on some people.

Working out the pattern of outcomes and future events is the way to assess risk/reward. It does require some worldly knowledge and experience of historical events.

Drawing lines on a chart may be simpler but of no use currently. Knock yourself out though. At least you won't get a headache thinking too much.

Usually people trying to ramp themselves into a profit or out of trouble.

From the ubiquitous Martin Lewis.. " Right now banks are fighting to PAY YOU FOR YOUR BUSINESS, with £200 cash, 16mths' free insurance, 0% overdrafts & bills cashback"

Not interested in pensioners though.. Took my overdraft away. Well there are an awful lot of us....Many property rich but the Banks are really just interested in those who can service a debt, workers they can fleece...Credit card debt is huge! Barx and Nationwide circa 20% if you dont pay it all off...It was even close to that when the credit crunch was at it's height and I had a mortgage of less than0 .60%

"This could balloon significantly with ever-rising helium prices"

LOL.. That's a cracker badland... So funny I nearly bought some shares! Mind you if the balloon bursts there will be a lot of squeaky voices around..

Look just forget the charts! It's an incredibly uncertain world and even more uncertain region. No decent rise until there is some kind of a certain future. You pays your money....

Even when settled and making reasonable profits the company managed NOT to reward shareholders particularly well.

I can see a point in time getting ever closer where the Old "Clearing banks" are merged together. This might assist security and share the cost of maintaining branches and hubs for communities.

Apologies for talking about banks on here...

Re Yahoo. A man who not only allowed his own country to be invaded but then slaughtered 10's of thousands in apparent revenge. A man wanted to answer for war crimes is hardly an advocate for any nomination never mind the "peace prize".

Laughable.

This is the weirdest time in World affairs I can remember since the Cuban Missile Crisis. Maybe not as scary because the Russians were much stronger then and China was not a player.

We never learn, it was ever thus, even back to Napoleon. You allow dictators ambitious for land and power to thrive , sooner or later the problems arrive on your doorstep.

"Data from last year shows that only 1.22 million births were recorded, the lowest annual total since 1999. And the birth rate is expected to continue falling to just 1.14 million by 2027, according tot Russia's official statistical agency, Rosstat."

Never mind Ras putin. We have boatloads you can have . We could dump them on the Russian ships the Royal Navy are currently shadowing..

" he is not a panacea for peace."

You can say that again. You cannot do "A Deal" with megalomaniac warmongers. Strength is the only defence. Trouble is the strong. ie Israel, bankrolled and armed by the USA have slaughtered and are still slaughtering Palestinians. Thousands dying ,whole families because there is or may have been a Hamas control point in the area.

Similarly, not backing the Democratic Ukraine and cosying up to the Dictator Putin have cost thousands of lives.

Trump is a f' wit with a criminal record who cheats on his wives and even worse cheats at Golf!

What a World.

The USA would of course point to the Idiot we have in charge currently who cannot do anything right but then he is a Lawyer. Right and wrong in Law is a very foggy area and depends largely upon how much cash you have to throw at a case.

I always Borrowed from the bank and took the cash to a big auction and bought a fleet car one year old and half the price.

Anyone who has ever worked in a Franchise knows the profits and taxes involved... Pride costs money. You are welcome to it.

Apologies, I missed out poison and nerve agents.

Just reverting to the norm on the LSX. Directors feathering their own nests and to hell with shareholders.

You want to see a well run company working for shareholders ..Ryan Air. Ok many people's hate figure Mikey, but for an investor. ? Gilt edged.

"Russia’s transport minister killed himself, Moscow said on Monday, just hours after it announced that he had been fired by Vladimir Putin.

Roman Starovoit, who formerly served as governor of the Kursk border region invaded by Ukraine, was found dead in his car from a gunshot wound, Tass news reported."

Makes a change from falling from a window or dying in a plane crash. What a piece of filth Putin is. Rules by fear.....but for how long?

What Ai does not do is calculate greed and malice by CEO's and Directors..Ai has no particular axe to grind or gain from fleecing shareholders.

Directors do and have been doing in hundreds of companies for decades.

2 decades in this case.

Well thanks for the answer although I don't see a figure in there. I do feel like I have been answered by an Artificial Intelligence entity however!

Maybe how long was a better question.

Well it's a fair question. He apparently is invested. So am I god help me. Not a lot but enough to be annoyed.

How much we come back at? Will there be a big sell off? Or miracle of miracles a spate of buying?
