Sometimes you pick them, sometimes you dont.

i know a few people in here, myself included who sold up RR to buy in here:

Rolls-Royce shares have surged by 17pc after it said its half yearly profits will be “materially above consensus expectations”.

Yeah, more than likely badly marked, at least 75k of those sells are buys from myself and no1, most others probably the same, been fluctuating all day

Could just be badly defined trades because the price was too close to the sale price. if there is that many sells, it would have dropped a lot more than 0.08p

Jakey, yes they do, next dividend is 5.39p, and goes ex-div on 3rd august. so you need to be holding on 2nd august (record date) to be on the books. its then paid on 13th sept, based on how you have your account setup, pay out, auto reinvest or held

Also bought in today, 25k at 5.9

"@Ianfm - I will have to dig it out, but a recent interview - stated that PJ was disappointed at investors lacked the long term strategy for BT "

I think thats BS, and as you said, he's done his 5 years, probably also decided he doesnt get paid enough with his frozen 1.1mil base salary, and is off. 1.7mil paper loss for him as well tho.

Did he lie, did the board get fed up, was he pushed by Drahi/DT?

Discuss

I would love to know, or be enlightened if anyone knows or has heard rumours. Why did Jansen tell employees on a live conf call on 4th July that he was committed to BT and the strategy he started and the turnaround mission and will see it through and has no plans to leave in the foreseeable future; then 6 days later, announces he will be moving on in

Aus, do you actually work in that industry or can you actually backup what you are saying other than posting freely available wiki links and reading a free articles on cyber security. Anyone with actual skills in that area, im sure wouldn't be advertising them on a board with nothing to do with what they are talking about.

I would say nothing, the shares you have borrowed cannot be traded, so they wont ask for them back. once it reopens, you will need to cover your position and buy them back, which will probably be a huge mark up. shares suspend for 1 of 2 reasons, they are going bankrupt, or there huge news changing events on the way and the price would be super volatile which isn't great for AIM shares. ..... let me just say, it ain't the first reason here.

You may need to readjust your article, else you'll have people writing this off.

"Afentra will pay $438.5 million" - should be $48.5million according to RNS

Special dividend perhaps?

I remember reading here, but correct me if im wrong, $35/barrel is break even

Nice start, let's hope it continues pushing up before next week/next month inflation figures

Suspension imo is due to extending the LSD again to Q4 '23, due to the additional SPA done for a bigger amount, try and get them both over the line at the same time before un-suspension. Least we won't revisit the lows again while they get it done.

What do you mean 'will be'? they are already out, 7.9, beating estimates of 8.2

Getting more of the block

Afentra is pleased to announce that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Afentra (Angola) Ltd, has signed a Sale and Purchase Agreement ('SPA') with Azule Energy Angola Production B.V. ('Azule') to purchase a 12% interest in Block 3/05 and a 16%1 interest in Block 3/05A, offshore Angola (together the 'Azule Acquisition') for a firm consideration of $48.5 million and deferred contingent payments of up to $36 million subject to oil price, production and development conditions.

News out and share suspension

If they extend the long stop date again, i see this back below 20

A bid of 250p, wont ever get approved, by the board nor investors. Loads of people are underwater here from when it was £4-5.
