Guinness et al (not aimed at anyone in particular)

It takes a special type of person without a stake to anonymously taunt people on a BB. Any time of investment carries a risk. Companies go bust or recover for many reasons.

Never react emotionally to a share price movement, see it as a lesson and go with your own instinct.

Many positions moving against temporarily come good again. I will add and trim as usual, bit short on the trims atm :) but it is less than a week.

Falling knives, fear, uncertainty can cause money to be lost - however paper losses are just that. Papers profits are the same. Until realised it hardly matters.

If you invest with funds, credit card etc or the housekeeping then that is not good. How many cash their giros, pension, benefits and gamble it away before the lunch they cannot afford. Never good.

I wish everyone well with their investments, here and elsewhere. Own your own investments decisions.

If the SP rises to 60p, 70p 80p from here (over the next few months or years), any investment at these prices is going to beat 4% in a bank.

Never advice, do hat you do in life and own it.

Pleasant weekend to all.

Panic over what ?

Something for the weekend :) buy or sell ?

Perhaps another bidder has already approached - what's up with Reckitt?

Depends who it is? sell or buy?

Delighted that shareholders and board still in control and the trader that is CURY continues to thrive.

No surprise really.

Hey GD2

Plenty of excitement elsewhere -IAG HTG TRN a few bids and of course a few dogs (for now).

Have a great weekend.

starting to move this am :)

Respectfully I disagree

Despite the going nowhere share seemingly have worked this into super low average with a good sized holding. Sub 70p currently as in the adding phase, had it down to near zero average before readding. Hadtaken time and the phase now with this one is to add shares while keeping average around these levels of lower. Spurt up sell a tranche spurt down readd.

Yesterday's add, trimmed 80% and have added a few 000s more net 126p (incl comm and stamp).

Strengthening all the time - patience is all that is required although an MBO or bid would be great.

The Board has approved the capital return through share buybacks of up to €2.0 billion of proceeds from the sale of Vodafone Spain. This is expected to commence following completion of the sale of Vodafone Spain. The Board anticipates the opportunity for further share buybacks of up to €2.0 billion upon completion of the sale of Vodafone Italy. It is expected that the total return to shareholders for FY25 will be up to €3.1 billion, representing €1.1 billion in ordinary dividend payments and up to €2.0 billion in share buybacks. This represents a 23% increase over the expected total returns to shareholders for FY24 of €2.5 billion

Should be a fun one today - happy to see the nettle grasped and perhaps a realistic reset for a brighter future.

Dividend rebased (cut) from 2025 to 4.5c

FY24 total ordinary dividend expected to be maintained at 9.0c per share and ordinary dividend to be rebased to 4.5c per share from FY25 onwards;

May it yet work out for everyone. GLA.

Board hijacked by a greedy fool, never be gullible enough to be swayed by anyone on an anonymous board.

Exits are always available, simply sell.

Invest only money you can do without and then live without the stress.

Pinch of salt also helps.

We are but pawns

Great summation. Seems also a legacy of poor manament has not helped and CFO changes welcomed but jury out.

Hoping kitchen sink RNS has led to calmer waters.

Bobbins, Kylie is on hold for you, can you take her call?

In the ISA of the accounts, pop, add & trim or trim and add.

Plenty of ways to lose your blouse.
