Does anyone know the cost of the new employee share scheme? . I assume the buy backs are to prevent dilution for all the new shares that are going to be handed out to employees

Not sure how to add to list if at all possible - my guess for Friday close is 308p

I got in at 91 and sold half at 114. Then bottled it and bought back at 109 only to sell half again at 115.
Short term I have not got a clue what is for the best so I’ve kept a foot in both camps.
When there is a discernible up trend I will definitely stash more away for long term

In 2007 there were only 5.5 billion shares.
Today close to 71 billion - for the sake of simple maths ( excluding inflation and some value added) that’s roughly 13 times more.
Today’s price on a crude measure equates to £5.20 @ 5.5 billion shares.
I’m not sure what effect entering into the private rental sector at a time of record house prices and climbing unemployment will have on the share price - but experience tells me it will be the opposite to what I think.

This is a UT trade
An uncrossing trade is where buyers on the bid and sellers on the ask match together in a single trade at the end of an auction period. The uncrossing trade shows up with the trade code “UT” on the London Stock Exchange

I do agree in essence but it has been made a little easier as a lot of the stocks started from historical lows.
To highlight your point I’ve day traded Barc and am up about 58% - I had just left alone and sat on my hands I would be up 105%.

I think the travel market overreacted to one of the main cruise liners tapping the market again (Norwegian cruises)
There is going to be extreme volatility in this pandemic market but it is hard to argue against a higher share price post pandemic when normal times return.
I was guilty of day trading the socks of this share but I think the time is coming to purchase and put away for the long term

I not sure short term what will happen so sold half today at 302 from entry point of 254 - long term only up with good dividends but if dips will most certainly get back in - but having spent years doing this OPEC will announce and the share will hit 335 and I will regret not sitting on my hands.

I am not making any forecast as what will happen to this share but if one had £20K sitting here waiting for it to go boom over the last 2 months one would have missed out on some very profitable trades in a wide range of other shares.
This would have to shoot up to 60p + to make up for lost opportunities.
I’m sure if it does pick up it will be a slow upward trend and it will be possible to jump on without too much damage.

Apologies if people know this anyway but it is worth looking at the educational video on the 3 granite website. Holding these for a long period is fraught with risk.
The result of daily rebalancing (compounded leverage can be very high)
If a shares trends up they are good perhaps returning much more than x3 but in a volatile market like RR you will be very surprised what effect negative rebalancing has even if the share eventually finishes higher. On top of that you have the fees.

After my post yesterday selling out at 297 I could not resist and got back in at 301.
I decided to put this away long term as one of my dividend stocks. I will top up if they test the outer support level.
I’m now in a quandary about what to do with RR as I do not want to repeat yesterday’s fomo feeling.

I sold out today at a 30% profit over 16 days. I may regret it but I have an investment strategy and always stick to it. If there is a sustained break through R1 I will reinvest and hopefully ride it up.
I do miss some of the highs but I rarely get caught holding. I suppose I could be criticised for managing loses rather than concentrating on gains but as you get older you get more risk adverse

Some Covid-19 hit stocks are burning through £Billions but still being supported.
Lloyd’s have made £1.2 billion and resumed divi payment - not exactly the end of the world.

That IG story was on its website midway on the 22nd so not exactly hot of the press.

Gaps can be useful but not every gap needs to be filled.
The crux is understanding what has caused it . The advent of commission free trading and the boom in RI’s and collective investment has reduced the significance of these gaps.
At present when the markets are driven more buy sentiment, emotion and 24 hour news feeds investing at present is much more like gambling than strategic and technical analysis (sadly)
IMO.

I think as a long term hold this share is very good value. Apart from the volatility for day trading I’ve today at 264 purchased a tranche for my 15 year retirement fund. The compounded dividends over 15 years makes an incredible difference to the value and the growth potential is also quite good.
No such thing as a sure bet but in my opinion one not to be up at night worrying about.

I think this share will recover but it will take much longer than some anticipate. Without a large international presence and corporate bank to help with profits this will be a long slog linked to the British economy.
I would consider these long term when the Covid-19 debt problem and bankruptcies are washed out of the system but at present I think they are day trade status.
