There is, and has never been money to be made in Cakes. High Street doom and gloom, people tightening belts, high-rents, and very labour intensive......and these fifty quid cakes don't get sold, the ten-quid ASDA cakes replace them during periods of uncertainty. You don't need a PHD in Economics to work this out surely?

Won't be seeing 1p julian so might as well crawl back under that rock you crawled from under.
ha! I think if you do day-trade Flybe, then if I were you, I wouldn't go in to Scully-Hype mode on their BB - Everyone is to blame when PI's lose money (apart from themselves), even the milkman will be getting flack soon on their BB. All this Flybe trading at the moment is effectively knife-edged, riskers and chancers..... However I can see why people are doing it. .I did think the same as you a few days ago and wondered if I should give it a go, but my history of knowing when to get out isn't too good! If anything this latest Flybe trading just goes to show how dangerous the stock-market - money is being made (and lots of it) on nothing, as it appears Flyb is currently nothing!
crikey, well lets hope it recovers, don't "do a julian" and panic sell.
Scully you must be 10k down?
Held Travis since March last year - I am now 6% down on my investment, although it's recovering. Paid 13 a share, but have had sixty quid in dividends. Not sure when next set of results are out. Wickes is dragging them down, but they have stuck P&H division up for sale, so it'll be interesting times ahead.
Oh yes, I forgot about Bannan. I wish my investment history looked like Robbie Burns, Christ-Alive! He does well. How are Team-Flybe on the other board - I haven't looked. Any last-minute injunctions stopping process?, or is it a done deal?
Scull, that is encouraging! Have you read his book? Where is foul-mouthed IQ28 recently? I thought he'd have been back to apologise, but he appears to have fell off the face of the earth?
Scully have you sold me a dud here?
Brexits holding this down in the short term. Now Teresa needs cross-party support with Labour, we'll see her cave in on the single market and the customs union to get them on site, and then the labour whips will get it through. Then I can see recovery here to 180 - 200 over a period. There'll be no election or second vote.
Scully, yes, an awful lot of money appears to have been lost by a great many in FLYB, poor buggers. I am just absolutely astounded by the Boards complete disregard in their RNS's of the Shareholders. I did keep saying that STO had not declared they were bidding - it turns out they were - but in a partnership with Virgin as lead I guess? - however it's naughty that "said partnership" didn't reveal they were this in an RNS, especially as STO wanted a takeover previously, so this was surely a huge conflict of interest? I think a lot of people held on to the fact that "many" or at least 2 players were going to battle it out, so they bought shares...lots of shares. Everyone appears to have got outsmarted. With my fourteen or fifteen hundred loss, I am not going to join the groups, I'll just move along. However, I fully understand why people will pursue. I have dabbled for about 6 years on the Stock Market, and lost out a fair bit with some right "dead-certs" (AFREN, KILLRILLION as we called them in the trade), and now Flybe. I still go back to my view of FTSE firms, and the occasional flutter down in the pits. FARN is still my bugbear, lots of Family and Friends notifications back along, which dead-cert'ed great results, and then we drop from a quid to 50's. I am in at 1.24 I think, but only have 1.5k invested here I think from memory.
My Penny came, and the penny went, and I'm glad to be in here! It'll be interesting to see how this share pans out in the short term, and hopefully it might; along with my other holdings on the LSE make back some of my losses elsewhere.
I know what has happened is a complete travesty, and there appears to be a lot of people hot under the collar, this is understandable, as it is alarming and quite eyewatering that so many P.I's have lost so much - if the figures posted here are to be believed. That said, all of this talk of ringing Flyebe, emailing Branson, reporting FCA/SFO is all a bit closing the stable door when the horse has bolted. Unless there is hard evidence, then I am sure it is unlikely the authorities will look at this as a little more as disgruntled investors. It might be better to try and get press coverage - which might then forced authorities hands more, than filling out forms with no actual evidence. I do know when I lost a load of money with AFREN, there were shareholder groups, and websites - but it all seemed to fizzle out after a few months. Good luck all whatever happens.
so you don't recommend me doing my usual 'up between 10% and 20% sell trick then?
I'll be £150.00 in profit @ 1.2!!!

..stop splitting hairs here! I was right wasn't I? But I am glad to be in, and I genuinely see this trending upwards!
1p ...surely never 1p?
oh bugger it's sub 1p, knew I should have waited. But I am happy at 1.045. Let's hope for some positive news and upside from here!
I am very please to announce that I have just purchased 97,368 shares @ 1.045p! I trust now I can have an opinion! I also promise that if my investment falls through the floor, I will have no one to blame but myself, as ultimately it was my decision to make this choice.
