Also be mindful that peak RR in its whole history was in December 2013 the market cap was still only £25 billion.
On a positive note, when RR was losing £4+ billion in 2016 and had major restructuring, the cap was £11.5 billion... so we are currently pulling a small profit and still under this market cap, but we are a smaller company after the sales of assets and have a debt of £3.1 billion.
Liquidity is good to see through covid, must stress however, this won't rise alone, its all down to the management and engineers, r&d to keep RR innovating
I can't see £8 share price with RR buisness model and even a repaired balance sheet and pre covid flights. RR would need to be x3 better company than its peak or the FTSE would need to reinvent itself and attract a stock market with sentiment and investment levels similar to theUSA.
Or new developments to bring RR to the top, only thing I can see is the SMR they are developing, it would require them being the leaders in this tech and regulation and government support and contracts to be behind them.
