Stalker spy.

Always try and keep it easy to understand for the TAF postie like yourself.

Low figures rounded off so not to confuse.

Good look with your 12k investment though,sure you will do very well and retire a millionaire,or it maybe easier for you buying a lottery ticket..
Near your office..lol

All the best till next week,packing to do
The nerve toucher

Keep striking boys

Listen to your leader…strikeeeee

Newdealz.
@Maxi - good method double down roulette, always interested to hear how others go about their trades, ignore the losers here, probably baiting you to try and blag your methods. Winning big means sitting on your hands, some need to learn that as all they ever had is 'little' wins.

It’s not something I do very often,but has always come up trumps,the hidden value and kretinski who keeps buying kept me interested.
Will sell on the way up,the posties seem to think Royal Mails ideas won’t work,but I should be long gone by then hopefully.
Can’t believe the rise in …on the beach since we last chatted shares…quite staggering really…

Keep striking boys

Have those torches on power save

Right Charlie.
Your posts are far too long. May I suggest as a holiday read, The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham.

Post maybe to hard to understand for a TAF…but I will give you a clue…it’s basically taking the pi-s out of all the unionised posties who like to think there a clairvoyant.

Let me help you out.

You have lost.
You have lost big.
You have lost money.
You have lost terms and conditions.
You will lose more yet.
Hope this is short enough to get through to you.

Correct…Madeira again in two weeks followed by the beach

Enjoy the strike days though.

Charles
There you go again lol,guessing what someone’s made lol.
My point of the post was to show up you TAFS,a recent thread laughing as it was impossible to get a £2 average,when in fact it’s very easy to achieve.
There are many investors who have done a lot better than others,but a profits a profit,you say a lot have traded more effectively,correct,but I think long term as well,but i also bet there’s not many made a 75% profit in 8 weeks on a company ….called on the beach….
Which is where I will be shortly…..

Keep striking boys.

Get those torches out.

SIMPLE MATH/SHAREHOLDER AVERAGE/OBSESSED POSTIES
Some of the posties on here sound extremely bitter,they realise that there 8 month dream,the spouting off,we believe in the cwu,victory will be ours,bla,bla,bla,they have a default position,deep down they can see it’s a futile battle,the company are pushing ahead,throwing the odd bone and watching the masses claim a victory,when in fact if you look closer it looks over,grasping at straws,there default is to ask a share holder how much they have lost,there new game called,what’s your average,quite funny really,even had some TAF postie going on about the share price and his 12k he has to invest once the price plummets,a lot of investors make more than 12k off dividends from the portfolio,TAF posties seem to think investors only have 1 stock lol.
As investors we should be thanking the TAF posties for giving us the opportunity to mop up.
A simple math lesson for the obsessed posties who are obsessed with traders averages.
There are people who invest in different ways.
Some wait for the bottom…where’s the bottom.
Some wait for good results.
Some gamble that the share price is over sold.
Some look to charts to look for gaps,up and down.
There are a few posties guessing investors averages,no idea why,but if it makes them happy,it must be a defensive way of thinking as there about to get a Roding they thought would never happen.
So how do you get an average of £2 if you have been a buyer at £5.80.
I have been quite open on posts about my investing on Royal Mail,it’s something I have done on a few shares over the years,buying on the way down and averaging down.
Not everyone’s cup of tea,but if your gambling with previous profit I personally just go for it if there is hidden value,no matter what recommendations the papers and experts say,DYOR.
So here it is how simple averaging from £5.80 -£2.00 can be.
Buy
10 shares @ 5.80
20 shares @ £5.00
40 shares @ £4.50
80 shares @ £4.00
160 shares @ £3.50
320 shares @ £3.00
640 shares @ £2.50
1280 shares @ £2.00
2560 shares @ £1.75
Average £2.11
Posted this a few months ago for the TAFS,who just don’t seem to understand and like to repeat …reminds me of a great eighties advert.
We pre record but don’t fade away.
Not hard really,I could have added another trade,but just doubling is an easy option to show,just 9 trades,add to that the divi already taken,and your looking alright.
You just need to be cash rich.
Most investors have a few shares in there portfolio,I don’t no one who just has the one share (Royal Mail).
I really don’t get what all the fuss is about with regards other peoples averages.
Must be a postie thing,desperate to keep kicking until the end.

Thanks for the average boys.

Keep listening to the cwu.

Changes before April,don’t blink.

Broch.
Nice post..
Unfortunately for the posties,changes has now got to come at super rapid pace,not a slug carrying a snail,or the cwu way,agreed the pathway is a great tool for Royal Mail,as they can do what they want really,and if the cwu don’t agree then it’s pushed through.
Great they have kept/added that caption,so basically if the union and its employees want to slow change down or don’t agree,then tough,there’s very little room/time for talk,it’s being implemented in weeks.
Changes not working in the past I would say are exactly that,the past,major change is right here,right now.
The union will have little say,but will die trying to shout strikeeee.

Clock in late go home late,

Can’t go sick I don’t get paid

Rural
Max, RM spin, CWU spin tell me something new. I want a 30 year old blonde nymphomaniac doesn't mean I'll get one. Love the rain me lol.

It’s all there in black and white,please don’t let it be to much of a shock when all the changes bite.

Like a mouse on a spinning wheel.

Like a posties head spinning looking at all the changes about to land.

Royal Mail spin will be Royal Mail fact shortly.

Keep striking boys.

Rural
Revisions have always been a dog's dinner and it doesn't really matter to most postie's, go in do your 7.30hr and go home. Doesn't matter whether you bring back 1 hours work or 3.

This is quite a funny response really,I would say it means quite a bit,the very fact the cwu left it out of there statement so not to put anything out there negative.
It also shows that no matter what spin is put out by the cwu that there they are getting somewhere,there not really,Royal Mail will/are just doing what they want.
They want a lot of the changes pushed through before the end of the financial year…

Be positive boys,pray it’s dry on the next strike day.

Come in later..go home later.

Hope you all got a torch for Xmas.

No Opinion
CWU have achieved nothing!Today 09:17
RMG to remove xmas agency - it's not xmas, well done
RMG accept new CWU ballot - CWU must have one for further IA, well done
RMG reinstate IR framework - RMG will deploy revisions even if CWU disagree, but at least it'll be "in the framework", well done
RMG will review conduct cases - this is standard procedure since that are always appealed anyway, well done
CWU won't take strike action before 20th January - what, you mean after the two week legal requirement for notice? Exceptionally well done.
Talk..
How this can be sold as a win by the CWU is beyond me. RMG have conceded nothing, and when the talks are over they'll barely have time to announce another strike before the change ballot lapses.

If you read the letter from Royal Mail to the cwu last week,you will plainly see the cwu forgot to copy and paste much of paragraph 3.
In paragraph 3 in a nut shell it says……if we cannot agree on the guildlines this will not stop revision programme proceeding.
In other words we will keep you in the loop and that’s it,agree/disagree it makes no difference.

You really have to laugh at the cwu and there spin,and the gullible posties for thinking they have won a bone.

Big Dave still awaiting his bone.

Huge change being implemented before the years end.

Keep striking boys

Dear Colleague,

ROYAL MAIL GROUP DISPUTES UPDATE – REFRESHED TALKS

We are writing to update you on a number of developments in our disputes with the Royal Mail Group.

Following discussions over the last few days, we have now agreed with the company to refresh our talks and engage in intensive negotiations from the 9th to 20th January.

The above is confirmed in an exchange of correspondence which is also attached to this LTB.

Branches, Reps and members will see that Royal Mail has made a number of significant moves towards the union, covering the following:

· RMG has agreed to immediately remove the agency staff used to cover the Christmas peak and strike action.

· RMG has accepted that the CWU will engage members in our campaign to win a re-ballot, while negotiations continue

· RMG has reinstated the industrial relations framework for all revision activity. This is a significant development which gives us the ability to negotiate at local level, rather than managerial imposition of change. However we must be clear, as stated in our letter to Royal Mail, the outstanding issue of revision guidelines needing to be agreed remains a major concern and may be a barrier to progress. This will be discussed as a priority on the first day of our talks.

· RMG has committed to reviewing all cases put forward by the CWU that have arisen from the dispute relating to suspensions, conduct charges and dismissals. The CWU has made clear that we will never accept these unfair attacks on our members and representatives and a resolution to this must be found over the next couple of weeks.

While recognising that some progress has been made, given the unacceptable actions of the company over the last few months, we do not take anything for granted and we know there are major differences between us on a range of key issues, including how revisions proceed.

Notwithstanding the above, the Postal Executive believe that now is the right time to try and change the dynamic of the dispute by pausing strike action and prioritising refreshed talks and the need to return another massive turnout and a Yes vote and turnout in our re-ballot campaign.

During this period we have also secured a number of activities to raise the profile of our dispute, as follows:

· 10th of January- Westminster Hall debate on Postal Services (Post Office and Royal Mail)

· 12th of January- Westminster Hall debate on Royal Mail and the Future of the Universal Service Obligation

· 17th January- The CWU will be giving evidence to the Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy Parliamentary Select Committee, which has been called to discuss the mismanagement of Royal Mail and the future of the USO and our dispute

· 23rd of January- we will be meeting with major Royal Mail shareholders to explain our concerns about the dispute and the future of the company.

We know this has been an extremely difficult dis

Sick pay not being paid to employees is a bloody great move,I suspect a lot will at some point be repaid in the future,but I bet that for every one that’s highlighted not getting paid,there’s another 10 that we’re thinking about going sick but now are not.
Thinking from royal mails thought process,this will pay for itself 10 times over,all that extra work there getting out of those that would have been sitting home laughing.
Bloody genius.

Almost time read it and weep boys

Keep infighting

Keep thinking for that one word that would sum up what strikes have achieved.

Let me help you.

NOTHING

Max , the union are in to deep now, they can't turn back , if they do they will literally lose tens of thousands of members overnight . My office are still 99% all in . When you get treated like rubbing rags and spoke to like your a nobody and accused of feigning sickness by little men in Boss suits ( wonder when that happened before) who also class themselves as medically trained , you come to realise ,the staff have had enough . All bullying allowed by your Uncle Simon !
Only one outcome will prevail if the union don’t get on board,and quick…..
They will be out flanked and dumped on from a great height,it won’t be pretty,I agree with you the union are in to deep,but all good things come to an end,it will be very interesting with regards the next ballots,you only have to look on all the forums the discontent that now is everywhere,arguing amongst themselves lol.
Strikes
Strikes are not working.
Overtime ban
No overtime ban
Part timers up in arms about it being unfair if o/t ban comes in
More crossing picket lines
Full timers working overtime clearing after strikes
Workers going in early working for free
Workers fed up with industrial action as they thought Royal Mail would roll over.
Workers realising they have lost there leverage.

In a weird way I hope you do vote again for strikes,as I can then see a quick Royal Mail going in with both feet to squash the union,where as a deal still keeps them in the building,either way,win or bigger win.

Everyman for himself

It’s all falling apart.

Last question,when’s Dave the bone catcher meeting shareholders

https://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/markets/article-11595851/Royal-Mail-braced-650m-loss-crippled-strike-action.html

Anger
The way I see this is what’s done is done now,yes the cwu wanted to bring the company to its knees so they could get what they wanted,they wanted the public and business owners onside,this is imperative,as soon as business and public are lost then your in the ****…
Unfortunately now for the cwu,there trump card of November and December
1..Black Friday
2..cyber Monday
3..build up to Xmas.
4..Xmas itself.

They have shot there bolt,behind the scenes now you will have major disappointment,yes they can keep striking,but deep down now they no it has not had the impact it intended,Royal Mail will recover,they will continue to implement,in fact I would suggest that now there resolve would have hardened.
As Dave the bone catcher continues to put on a brave face and say everything’s going to plan,employees are now seeing there efforts are in vein.
Many are crossing pickets,they realise the game is coming to an end,they see Royal Mail implementing exactly what they want,many don’t understand how this can happen without the union agreeing,many have only just heard of executive action,many have only just heard the 12 week rule,many have only just heard there sick pay is changing shortly,many are now realising that there csps are closing with little they can do,there terms are changing,many are saying is these strikes have had little impact on the outcome why are we even continuing,many have said there going back in after Xmas and not striking anymore.

Many realise change is now happening and they need a job.

Everyman for him self season is upon us.

Pull those rip cords

Merry Xmas and a happy new year to all friends and foes

Wishing everyone a safe and healthy Xmas and new year.

So looking forward to the outcome next year.

Now the scales have swung over to the company,it will be interesting to see which way they now turn the screw,

Strikes have not turned the company one bit,they have strung the union along through acas talks and ticked the boxes they needed to,right upto the 12 week point.

What will big Dave the bone catcher do….errr…STRIKE.

What will the company do….errr….continue down the planned route,I suspect they will wait till the next ballot,
see the out come
See what support remains
See how many cross the picket lines.

Then pending this….change tack or plod on ripping up terms and implementing what they want….change tack,what could this be.
Could it be fire and rehire.
Could redundancies be put on hold until they see how many don’t sign there new contract.
Truly looking forward now to the fun and games…
Don’t forget kretinski.

Hoping all the strikers get for Xmas

1…New scarves and gloves as strikes are cold in Jan / feb
2…new flags as current ones are a little tatty.
3…new terms and conditions.
4…maybe a little overtime to try and replenish your empty strike fund.

Catch you all in the new year.

Best wishes from a warm Madeira

Anger
One thing that did make me chuckle was,they have moved he said.
Then he said
Not moved on pay
Not moved on redundancies
Not moved on later start times

So in essence not moved on anything really.
In fact I bet the only thing that moved was a chair leg occasionally.

Then the last bit,no deal unless all suspension/sackings ect were all independently looked into.

Think he also forgot to say no signing of any deal unless the day temp was 22 degreas,the wind was 4 knots and only a southern wind at that.

Personally think they sounded desperate to get a deal done.

When kretinski say jump…we say how high

Correct me if iam wrong,but does it really make a difference what the lowest amount paid in the last 12 months is.
The remaining share holders have to accept the offer,so if an offer of say £4 a share is made,and the vast amount of share holders say no,then the offer would be upped.
Now I would also suggest that that vesa will behind the scenes sound out those bigger share holders,basically asking what would be acceptable,what ever that is,it will be more than the lowest price in the last 12 months.
Does kretinski not realise I have a boat in Madeira to maintain.

Soon to.

Clock in later home later.

When kretinski says jump your shout HOW HIGH

So,just when thought it was going all quiet for Xmas,kretinski gets involved...
This Say's to me the board and vesa are confident if victory in the near future.
I can see royal mail pushing through there end game shortly.
Posties you were warned several times.

Your going to bleed out to a sad death.
Work under new terms or pack your bags

Clock is now ticking
Tick tock tick tock

JB
I would suggest the cwu now realise the games nearly up,Royal Mail have strung Dave ward along big time,Royal Mail have taken every strike and not flinched,they have got acas involved at every opportunity so that if they want to play nasty all the boxes have been ticked.
Dave ward knows the strikes are now being broken,more every strike are crossing.
A new ballot looms,he’s in a no win situation,he loses then it’s over,he wins,but by a reduced majority his power is waning,mean while Royal Mail continue down the same path.
He knows winning after Xmas could well be impossible,he needs a deal,but royal mails ears are not listening.

Keep striking boys

Clouds are gathering,bring them brollies.
