BA is also a long haul airline. That's my point, that's why heathrow makes much more sense to it. I'd never fly easyjet on a 9 hour flight even if they offered it at a quarter the cost, and I'd never fly BA on a quick one hour flight! horses for courses. (in actual fact, I would never fly easyjet again full stop, I did once and that's the last time!!!)
Unless it's been extended since I last lived down south, Gatwick is a bit old and tired, and above all it has too short a runway to be cost effective for long haul flights, which is why BA proably want out of it. Re extending Heathrow, whether it happens or not, it has a lot of the infrastructure already in place to handle the A380, which you will see a lot of in the nearish future from a lot of the long haul carriers, carrying nearly double the passengers of a 777 or 747, it alleviates the need for extra runways.
smells of poo. and so does its mum.
Most professionals can actually spell the word professional. People who say 'trust me' with no backup argument at all are what? Yes, fcukwits ;)
Please note: The Directors' FIRST duty is to the company, NOT to the shareholders.
Lol, I never said never. I just said I generally don't sell all of them. Having said that, I change my strategy all the time depending on what the market is like and how much time I have to devote to it. Generally, if I am in massive profit, I take out the initial investment then leave the rest, but ALWAYS with a stop loss in place, I set my stop loss at 0.75 of purchase price initially and revise it from there. I'm not above changing my mind and leaving a share to profit take 100% too, if I think it's going to fall back down and let me get a lower average.
Ever thought of being original and not following anyone? I've lots of respect for CT7, he's a good bloke. But I make money, generally, without charts I get in and out at somewhere near the right point, not always, but the majority of times so far. That is what counts, not being down overall and I'm not. so the wit was a bit lost mate, because I haven't lost on any of the deals you've mentioned!
DC, they do have money in the ground. BUT, their debt is 200 million. assets 250million, but remember, assets can and are often manipulated or even if the company is honest, they are often shall we say 'optimistic' so dont rely on that too much. Steve, After posting several times about the divi people were still wittering about it being paid, personally, I would very much rather someone poked me on the forehead and spoke to me like a twat to get my attention than them NOT do it and me put my money somewhere on the basis of something that wasnt going to happen Dependss what you value more, your bank balance or your ego. With me the bank balance wins every time.
I take it that was supposed to be wit. I'm out of two of those you mentioned with healthy profits, by buying AT THE RIGHT TIME. SRB is still a profit for me.....though not realised because I haven't sold it. CRND i'm about break even.
i am not knowledgable about ENN at all mate. my point is, all this info is available for most shares listed, not all, but the majority. and it's very easy to access. Try typing the name of the company into google first. Then maybe company name and RNS or interim report. You get the picture.
You say the point is made? Please explain why people are still under the impression there is an interim divi being paid when the company itself says there is NOT? as for speaking to people like idiots, if they can't see someone is trying to help them not throw their money on a false premise................sod them! I personally would be VERY thankful if i were about to buy a share based on getting a dividend, and someone told me there wasnt one.
Jeez, cut it out. this company may well survive, but it's run by an old codger who missed being at work so bought a new company to run. No disrespect to him ,he's done well and if he wants to keep active, good for him. This is not a lean company. it's a fat one. I would really love your explanation of why a RISE in interest rates is going to help this company? It may well recover. If it does, it will recover to a healthy price, so WHERE is the rush to get in at 1p? why not wait till it starts a recovery (if indeed it does) and if you DO miss the early bit, get in at 1.5 or 2 or 3p? STILL making it a multi bagger for the long term, BUT minimising your risk.
I have around 40 shares. Many of them are punts. No issue with that, but they are REASEARCHED punts. It really is easy to get the required information.
Peter, lol, cut this 'in my opinion' rubbish. It's written on THEIR website that they are NOT paying the interim divi ffs!!!!
http://www.ennstone.co.uk simple eh? petertee, the report SPECIFICALLY states that there will be NO interim divi. Whether or not a full term divi will be paid mid next year waits to be seen, but is VERY unlikely, and even if it is, that is no reason to buy now.
They made some annual cost savings, which is good. BUT, WHY did they incur this: 'Exceptional, non-recurring, professional advisory costs have been incurred by the Group in the period which are estimated to be in the region of £4 million for the current financial year. Additional fees would also be due on the successful outcome of the disposal programme or other corporate transactions.' What was it for? If they tell me it was to advise on the 2 million annual cost savings they have made, I would lose a lot of confidence in the management team!!!! So what WAS it for and what was the value? There are a lot of questions here. Not many answers. THAT is why I've been watching it, not buying it. ALSO you're buying in why? because the price is low? so what? look at the graph, it's going DOWN consistently. I don't see any stable point here or any turning point, just downward movement which could just as easily continue. Have you lot got something against having money in your bank accounts?
Things are actually in the balance with this company. It basically says we're just about ok at the moment.........but we're a bit buggered if conditions worsen even more. It's at a tipping point and THAT is why the share is so low. Anyone who just bought in didn't make an investment, they placed a bet. Wait until there are some signs of movement in talks (but think WHY would a company buy ENN right now when thye can possibly buy it cheaper in a receivership sale!!! ) or wait until conditions improve!!!
Lol, there is no divi!!!!! Read the post I just put, and do some bloody basic research before putting your money in things. It took all of 10 seconds to get that interim report.
With all respect, you are looking at all the worng things. I really don't care what the divi has been for the last 5 years, we have been in a construction boom so I would expect no less. This however has no bearing at all on current trading climate. Read this instead: http://www.ennstone.co.uk/view_news.asp?news_id=238&news_cat= I look for negatives, not positives. I.E. I dont ask the question why are they going to make it through, i ask, what is it that will make them fail, and are they on the case.
I've been watching this one for ages. 200 million debt, but 250 million in assets. even if they're over egging the assets, that isnt terrible shape. They are on with cutting back work force and some cost savings (though not enough in my opinion) and as you say, there are talks ongoinng with several interested parties for either wholesale or peicemeal purchse. All in all, I wont buy yet, but I will still keep a close eye. Did you read their report around Nov 19th? interesting reading. Not good, but not too terrible either.
