General Electric - RR closest competitor across the pond. Unfortunately, I think the share price will continue fall, albeit slowly, until the route out of lockdown becomes clearer. It’s obvious to see that foreign mutations have shook our incompetent government and as such, they’ll ramp up restrictions to avoid growth and variation in this space (until deaths and hospital admissions are firmly under control). To add to this Biden is finding himself 12 months behind the curve and he’s made it clear that his priority is getting this disease under control, which will primarily involve more restrictions.
Rolls will make it out the storm but the next few months are going to be painful and I think the next financial update from RR is going to crap. If you’re in the red, i wouldn’t worry, but patience will pay dividends. The end is in sight but it now feels further away than ever.
