Adam Davidson, CEO of Trident Royalties, discusses offtake milestones and catalysts to boost FY24. Watch the video here.
@ cooking - I couldn't agree with you more.
I'm surprised he is getting away with it in the media as much as he is...
I'd say PC's imaginary podcast will have record streams this week!!
Nice to hear from you Radar. What is your target price for BIRG?
If you hit your average or 7.90 or get close to it later this year will you sell or hold for a different target price?
@cooking - What is your average on BIRG?
The quote you refer to was from Fontenoy @ 8.32 Monday - "We need a ceasefire or a quick Ukrainian surrender. Nothing else will settle the markets."
To be honest there is even worse on some of the other boards.
Cooking - Personally I don't have any issue with you or anyone else trading shares/currency etc and profiting from movement in the SP irrespective of the cause (Brexit, Covid 19 or the War). We are all here with an agenda, to invest and hopefully profit from it and we all have families to feed etc... If someone wants to buy the dips and make money from it, that is natural for a trader to do exactly that and the best of luck to anyone who is doing it. Someone buying or selling this share does not effect anything in the Ukraine. With that said there are plenty of moral lines that you don't cross in the process such as knowingly supporting Russian agenda in order to achieve profit. I do not agree with people who post on this and state that another country should effectively surrender their sovereignty in the face of an invading aggressor so that normal business can resume and our SP hopefully get back to previous highs... that really lacks an understanding as to the magnitude of horrendous situation on the ground in the Ukraine and displays a lack of value for human life.
Regarding your comment on donations to the Ukraine - I would imagine that most people (myself and yourself and vast majority of posters here) have already been generous and donated to the various efforts by the charities involved. You only need to read the headlines as to the amount of money that has been raised by Irish people to date which is fantastic to see. People are all to familiar with our own national history and the struggles of those gone before us on this Island during times of occupation. Don't make assumptions that people haven't donated to this very worthy cause.
Fontenoy - You are correct that life is very difficult for the Ukraine population before this war due to the corruption but the people are not fighting for their politicians. They are patriots in the most extreme form and fighting to maintain their sovereignty and stop their borders being redrawn by Russia. The longer the war goes on the more their resolve as they see the atrocities unfold before them and witness the innocent being slaughtered. The hatred they had before this for the Russian regime is nothing compared to how they feel now. Zero chance of a full Ukrainian surrender.
Make no mistake, despite the fact that they are the underdog here the vast majority are prepared to fight to their death. We all saw the scenes in Dublin Airport with Ukrainians returning to their homeland to join the fight. This was replicated in cities all around the world which clearly shows the fight in their hearts. "Prolonging the inevitable" This is not in their mind-set... The majority would rather die fighting than surrender the country to Russia.
You are either a patriot for your country or not. If Ireland was invaded again by another nation I would choose to fight for this country that we call home despite the fact that we would be completely outweighed by any foreign army.
Somethings are more important than to roll over and accept defeat and money has nothing to do with the decision a man takes when he choses to pick up a weapon and go to the battle line.

@playingcards is a troll... he cant help himself with his constant B.S posts.
An all night party... Financial crisis... recovery... Brexit.... covid.... Russian invasion....
We finally get super results and management leave the goodies on the shelf and the hungry share holders look on in disbelief....
This share never ceases to dish out a kick in the stones... "it will come good over the next year" I'm so sick of hearing that....
Well It's never boring, thats for sure!!
This was widely expected for obvious reasons and all it is all part of the process. Nothing shocking about this announcement. BOI I'm sure have been working on a response and preparing their case long in advance of this predictable announcement as it was always going to be an obstacle on the way. They will have to make a few concessions regarding the deal in order to be seeing as allowing fairness and competition in the market. I'd be shocked if the deal falls through.
Hi JH... a question for you please. If you were on the board of directors and not thinking from our more selfish perspectives as shareholders and you were asked in front of all the board members the following question what would your answer be.
Q. Should the board buyback the government share holding rather than reinstate the dividend or should the board decide to reinstate the dividend and allow the government shareholding be bought up on the open market? The latter obviously making it much more difficult in the future to buy a significant percentage of the bank. I am of course assuming that doing both is not an option for some X factor yet to be announced. As a director who to think of the bank as the bigger picture and long-term position of the banks future which option would you decide was the best for the bank?
We are all assuming there will be a dividend announcement on results day.... it looks like funds have been taking positions given the trade volume / size of trades of late so they are most likely on the same page. State most likely announce it has reduced its holding to somewhere between 5 - 6 % any day now. Results widely expected to be nothing short of excellent so we are all looking great here for the future....
Except this is Bank of Ireland... and those of us who have been around longer than most still have a nervous feeling because shares just don't always do what they are supposed to do. Hopefully it's actually our time to enjoy being shareholders.... God knows we have suffered so much pain in the past. GLA
#delusionaldisorderisarealillness
Given the strong share price we will surely have an RNS informing us of another 1 - 2 % sale of the government holding.
You already know this but the answer for the 4 - 5 years period you are referring too is Brexit and Covid.
Very difficult for a share like this to soar with those two factors dragging it down. I happen to think it has done remarkably well all things considered and with huge potential subject to a few announcements such as a dividend etc
Irony - The government being required to step in and recapitalise this bank and remain on as a shareholder until stability in the banking sector and general Irish economy which in turn has contributed in holding back this share price causing upset to the current shareholders due to significant percentage of the shares they still hold and the message it sends out to the global audience and the reminder of how it all went so wrong. Then when the government announced their intention to reduce their shareholding and pave the way for an orderly exit some shareholders complain that they are temporarily holding the share price back because of this disposal.
You should remember that the government never wanted to become an investor in the bank and if it wasn't for them this bank would most likely have failed and shareholders would have lost everything.
Patience is required... the governments exit will ultimately increase this share price. Those who hold will be rewarded in time. Governments and banks both made a lot of mistakes in the past, one blaming the other is like throwing a stone if you live in a greenhouse. If you don't understand the necessity of this disposal you are thinking in a very short term frame of mind.
No current large short positions on this share that I am aware off from Blackrock or the more likely Citidel, Millenium, JP Morgan or WorldQuant etc.
make your mind up... 2 days you downgraded your forecast.
then I said to my trainer "put on more weights"... he said "THERE ARE NO MORE WEIGHTS"!!
