Absolutely, emotion of being a yorkshire lad aside, it would be wonderful for a few quid to be pumped into a UK industry that isn't London-centric.
Back to Matad though, a slight warning to the newer investors, traders will see this as a dream for the coming days/weeks, remain calm during spikes and dips, as it has been previously said it could be 3 steps forward 1 back for the next little while.
Long time follower of matad, jumped in yesterday following the positive news.
Just wanted to wish all the holders a congratulations, and a solid get stuffed to all the trolls. I'm invested in SXX, where the trolls and people taking pleasure from other people's difficulties is rife.
There are some very sad people out there, taking great pleasure in misfortune and people's personal situations. Think we should all take the opportunity to celebrate positive news and gains as they take equal if not greater pleasure when the news isn't as fantastic.
Can someone smarter than me please explain what todays RNS means to the PI, and indeed how the share price will behave on the back of this?
as the old adage goes, common sense, unfortunately, isn't that common...
You're comparing apples with oranges, Knight. H2B is investing in the property market, one that has shown over decades to be a fairly sure bet over time. A potential mine, with many more risks to overcome is an entirely different investment.
Thanks PAAA, you're far more eloquent than I could ever attempt to be.
One thing I have always thought (and it might be biased because I work in HR, and therefore use it all the time), but why not have everything tied to your LinkedIn account. Therefore you would only be able to post things you would stand by "professionally".
I do appreciate you could create a fake LI, or indeed that many people don't have it. As always, the perfect solution probably doesn't exist but more can certainly be done..
I certainly agree that these boards can have both a positive and negative effect. A blanket ban is the same level of ignorance as suggesting people should be free to post whatever they want, with whatever angle they want.
My question would be, surely it wouldn't be too challenging for LSE to have some more accountability attributed to owning an account? A basic background check and more personal info attached, so that it is harder to have several accounts on here all working to the same goal and influencing the share price. I feel the anonymity allows people to go beyond what they normally would, without repercussion.
The comparisons to HS2 aren't really that useful. It is in national interest to improve infrastructure (whether you think HS2 will actually do this or not is another question). It is not govt responsibility to back private entities.
I most certainly want CF and all of SM to succeed here, for the area, for my investment, for the people working on the project and everything else. However that doesn't change the fact it is a private company and not for the govt to step in. It sets a dangerous precedent, sooner or later everyone who can cobble together 10,000 signatures will be demanding a billion quids worth of guarantee
Very good work casapinos. "BOOM buy buy buy 50p soon!" is my favourite part.
Only you??
my point exactly, dubious is not criminal and should be considered so until proven otherwise.
With the amount of predictions on here (at least 2% are accurate) there would be a lot of criminals if that's the basis of that accusation.
There's a big difference between predicting accurately and insider trading...
Majortom, I don't think even the most pessimistic posters on here think that it isn't going to be built...who owns it when it's churning out a tonne of poly a second is where the debate lies.
I understand that Chiro, but how could they support jobs and the company whilst negatively affecting the PI?
chiromawa, what's this based on? What could a govt guarantee do to the PI?
Strong is an optimistic description- "Only" need a repeat of this for 77 consecutive days to get back to 20p
I appreciate the funds and trackers will pull out if SXX falls off the FTSE, but how much material effect will this have? Is there any way of determining how many of the shares are trackers and how many are not?
I think many of the long term holders saw this as a potential 10 bagger once production was up and running.
Therefore the maths would suggest diluting by a factor of 5 would lead to doubling your original money. Can't speak for everyone but I would imagine many LTHs would take that from here...
