Goals are goals which are goals my friend.

Carry on being you. 👍

In kind AZ, although many call you bot (which I hope you appreciate posting things after hours), like Svend, I appreciate those links you share.

Many of which I would never have if it wasn’t for you. 👍

Hear one for you Chaster.

FTSE Futures currently at 0.27% increase.

Regardless of Shell, that puts RR at about a 0.56% stating block, and with various data I look at, that gives us a close tomorrow around 1.2% increase.

Call me out on that when I’m wrong buddy.

… unless there is anything else I can clarify for you?

Aren’t we all ‘friends’ here with the gain that RR has seen?

I can make no excuses for foresight I’m afraid.

Are we friends now?

Unlike your good self, I stand by my predictions, so I'm happy (no hate) to take your accusations face on. I'm not a scaredy cat:

"Oh Puddycat never once have I contested your 7lb forecast."

So you agree with me? Awesome - shall we stop there?

"I have higher expectations than that"

Many have, I just want to pay my mortgage off in Feb 8th (my 50th birthday) and I instigated a £7 sell to do that from October 2020.

"After February earnings I posted several hyped up predictions from you that never happened"

That's a fair point - my returns didn't materialise as soon as I expected, but still on for Feb 8th 2025 £7.

"in return you had deleted from the forum, because you were so way off course and you knew it"

No idea what that means - I have no power to delete things from this forum. Hey, I'm just a cat.

"Since then, you still stuck on your 7lb forecast(which I have faith in)"

Awesome - we agree on something!

"but you have scaled back on majority of your old bold forecast that never came to fruition at February’s earnings"

Again, I agree with you - I expected the SMR and AUKAS to big it up a little more than it did, but I held my hands up every time to say I was wrong

"I read everyone of your post and since post February earnings have commented minimum"

Well, that's your take and I can't argue with you as you are entitled to your opinion.

All I know is that JTT and I started in October 2020 at around £1, invested at about £1.80, then got heavily in at 31p (RI) and have invested up to around £1.50 since so not a massive holding but something decent that will pay my mortgage off.

And yes, I'm afraid I stick but £7 come Feb 2025. It was obvious from the RI that post covid things would be a 70bln MCap. I'm not a savant on this one, although the doctor/vet says I am.... to me, it was always common sense? Hence me investing at the levels I did back then.

Simples.

Today, the FTSE over took the French to become the largest stock market in the EU.

And that's with the likes of TUI leaving for the DAX last month (I know, I was part of it!).

That's after Brexit by the way.

Nothing being shouted about in headline news - probably because Sunak wants to live on beach now (and I don't blame him).

And as I'm considered to be right wing in my approach to things (I'm not - I'm just a cat)....

Here are some left wing confirmations:

"Whilst this may help international relations I just can't see how Labour would get away with scoring such an economic own goal."

Great post PEAK. I admire and agree with your posts and insight so please don't take this the wrong way;

Labour want a European Union. That's fact.

The SMR 'competition' will now go from a somewhat RR bias to a European bias.

We all know EDF want 60bln from the UK taxpayer in terms of the Hinkely C project (overruns on the part of EDF, a nationalised French industry).

So let's think logically. I'm now a a Labour leader who wants back in with the European Union. Do I:

A) Give everything to the logical RR candidate (UK) that is head and shoulders above it's competition

B) Offer it to EDF and ask for them to stop hounding the UK taxpayer for the 60bln they need to finish their current project?

I'd like to be fair and just and say that RR have 10 years worth of R&R that no other competitor has.

But being the new Labour leader, destined to get back to the European Union, I'm suggesting he does exactly as plan B suggests.

I'm very happy that RR SMR Ltd have found ground outside the UK to get their enterprise growing.

I really hope I'm wrong on this - but Labour will be looking at international investment for SMR et al. And the payoff of the 60bln to balance the books with EDF will prove a ticking point for them in the next PMQs.

It's diabolical, and Tufan will no doubt disappear in the Q4/H2 if that happens.

It was old news.

Are5n4l being who he is with 20billion shares wanted to prove a point. The point being that it was 6 months known about (grounding of planes).

Fact is, you have the likes Chaster68, love the fact he might be right as they love the fact I’m going to wrong (with my £7 goal).

Shareflyer, Chaster68 and A53nal don’t like people being proactive and helpful.

They enjoy culling people when they think they are wrong.

It’s a sad state in our current economy.

I’m not here to prove either way, but when was the last time any of those three gave kudos for someone selling RR shares to pay off the mortgages, get a better life, enjoy the benefits?

They don’t, they are hurtful, horrible people -narcissists if you will, who enjoy the bad times, not the good.

Ignore them. They are not beneficial to any one. 👍

Can’t argue with that CWWX.

I guess common sense has no place in the world economy. 😂😂👍👍

That’s a fair point Fordm.

My point about suggesting it “too PC” was more about the fact that this tender was always going to heavily scrutinised from all parties other than RR in terms of UK bias (to RR) - I guess that’s a reason they called it a ‘competition’ rather than tender from the off. Hell, we’ve already had two legal objections to this fact and RR haven’t even won it yet!

So, I’m being reasonable to suggest that the current government have been ‘extra’ careful so if RR were announced as outright winners, there could be no hold up from further legal objections from the other competitors.

And that’s all well and good but there’s a point where it can be perceived as being to cautious to these issues, and in doing so, holds up RR who are raring to get this underway.

Who knows what will happen now Labour will be in charge.

Good post.

I think we have to admit that the current government have royally screwed up this whole process with their desire to be ultra PC. I’m guessing some very inexperienced ministers have been over shadowed by the lawyers on this occasion which has lead to the long delays.

Shame we didn’t have someone with balls pushing this process from the start.

And now we run the risk of Labour offering this on a plate to the French (EDF).

Gotta love this country.

.. now out and I'm afraid a very solum conclusion to the SMR contracts.

On this occasion, I hope to that non existent god that I'm wrong.

£70 close!

…. Which is actually a good point from you Franky.

I’d say I’d sell at £7,

Will I? I’ve got 18 shares all doing pretty decent right now. I could cash in soon and settle the mortgage (like you) or do I continue?’

Do I go beyond £7? Do I get used to the divs (announced soon) and do I look at the other 17 share increases?

When is enough… enough?

JTT (Jonny two toes), my owner (I’m a cat) seems to be doing well with drawing for a living.

Does that come to an end?

The older I get, the more I realise it’s about the journey, not the destination bro.

Just giving a heads up when I’m still here in 2050 saying £70 close!

😂😂😂😂😂

Beautiful Franky.

RR will be £7, then £10, then £15.

Goals are goals bro. So happy for you mate - never look back and enjoy what you’ re given mate.

Beyond happy for you 👍👍👍🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛

Franky, you’re the reason I’m here bro.

Almost tearful in my cats eyes you reached such a point bro.

Well done to you and yours! And don’t look (I know you will) on future progress! Remember you built your city on Rock and roll!

(Sorry, you built your family enterprise on astute investing!)

Listening to the absolute radio when I posted that👍

You’ve made my year. 👍

Great info ifiknewidberich9.

I’ve been far too focused on my other shares but recent data has obviously got me enthused with BOIL again, to say the least.

I’ll do some catch up work and hopefully contribute a little more here. 👍

Seems like a decent forum,

😂😂 ha, ha!

You have great time mate - 3-1 to Scotland!

The cat has spoken! 🥹
