I haven't sold any yet, but I originally brought in at 19p, before averaging down to about 3p when it dropped below 1.5. My plan is to sell off a little if this gets much higher, but I will still hold about 10 times my original stake. I would be surprised if some of the selling we see is this, and others are people doing quick buy and sells, taking small % margins on its way up. Not to mention anyone who brought in at the same time I averaged down (or did better than me in spotting the bottom) could sell half their shares now and cover all their costs!
OAPK20, in Wales and Scotland its a mix, it in large part depends on the size, once they get over a certain output (apologies i can't remember the threshold) decision making gets reverted to Westminster. i.e. Swansea tidal lagoon was rejected in London after being accepted in Cardiff. (bit of a sore topic for a lot of people in the region)
Net Zero Watch is just a re-branded climate denial group. They would likely be as opposed if not more so to progression of tidal energy. They run an anti-net zero campaigns... I'm not sure I would take anything they produce too seriously.
I'm sorry you feel sick over this, but imagine how you would feel if your home was invaded for no reason!
Also are you trying to say Ukraine deserve this because NATO (a defensive alliance) has expanded?
Russia also signed treaties saying they would protect Ukraine and respect their boarder...
Virtually every major corporation gets involved in political dessicion making, so I'm not sure why you think this should be different. With American politics being the worst case of companies getting involved!
Unilever are well known for make contentious dessicions for what they consider moral reasons and that's one of the reasons I have shares in them, (as do many ethical investment funds). Ultimately they have to do what is in the best interest of their shareholders, and if the shareholders vote at an EGM for them to make a statement then they will. Plenty of companies boycotted South Africa due to apartheid, Germany in WW2 etc etc so there is plenty of presedent.
I've sent a message to Unilever calling for them to call an EGM in order to suspend all operations and supplies to their Russian market for the duration of the hostilities in Ukraine. I would appreciate it if any other shareholders feel compelled to submit similar requests as if they start getting more and more requests, they might take action.
Just thought I'd pop up and say hi. I've taken the opportunity to pick up some shares with the price drop, as an opportunity to become a LTH. I already have shares in a few rivals and a spread across renewables, but this seemed like a great opportunity to hedge my bets on who's going to win the hydrogen race! From what I've seen of the company I'm honestly surprised it's dropped this low.
Although this may knock confidence in the market tomorrow, it should have no real impact on SAE. SAE isn't part of his empire and he has significantly reduced his share over the last year, hopefully we don't get too hard from this.
I'm not sure about this, but I'd take a punt a lot of the drop today and yesterday is linked to renewables tumbling in the US now it looks like their Build Back Better Bill is going to fail, rather then a reflection on the company itself or the UK market. Take SUNRun, who have seen a 17% drop in 5 days
Seeing the price dip back down below 1.50 for the first time in a little while, I've decided to put what was left of my December dividends into averaging down. I'll still need more than a 100% price increase just to break even, but despite everything I think this still has legs as a long term hold.
I came to post the link that Gentleman1 just posted (I'm as shocked as anyone it's actually a current link), but I'm pleased as anyone to see something might be happening at Uskmouth even if it is just a side show
I'm not sure how to take this. Yes its a good cash flow and might help focus the business, but the amount they sold it for is around the NAV plus 1 years profit from the scheme, I feel like they should have been able to raise more money from that sale then they have.
Always a positive to see directors and managerial staff sinking more of their own money into the company.
