…. About 5.6% increase (compound) per month? Are my cat figures correct?

Still on track for £7 come Feb 2025 👍

From 428 (finish today) to get to £7, per month, compound, we need…. (Bear with me as I work it out!) 😂

You got it spot on in my eye's Bav. Like you say, a bit of fun in-between the announcements that take this to £7 come Feb 2025.

Just don't have too much fun on here, there are 'some' who don't like fun.

It's because Michael O'Leary said ticket prices were likely going to rise by less this summer than previously expected.

Anyone remember Gerald Ratner?

I really wouldn't have noticed Ar5enal, but every post you make is moaning about that fact so I bow to your superior, older, wiser, older, and more informed/older judgement.

"Don't people feel daft posting prices ? it's my worst Share today IAG is my best. but you get likes for it ?"

You sure about that?

"Day high will be 4.26 + I suspect barring any curve balls , based on DJ, FTSE futures more than anything else."

Sounds like a good call to me.

... but if I was, I'd quite like this story:

No 10 ‘shelves plan for summer general election’

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2024/05/05/downing-street-shelves-plan-summer-general-election/

I mean, if I was a cynical cat, I'd be suggesting that it would benefit the Tories no end to be seen as the 'best for Britain' party, by awarding the entire SMR contract(s) to RR who have now said they will use a British company as a third party for supplies for the interim.

Good job I'm not a cynical cat.

...is all we want to hear soon isn't it?

Happy bank holiday all!

I’m hoping my stalking has gone for me to suggest this ****looks around*****

Hate to repeat myself but CMD (from the CFO) suggests a div once balance sheet and “investment grade” is achieved.

We’ve now done that, so if they are true to their word, Divs will be announced this year.

Thereafter, Tufan suggested continued investor paybacks which “could be” buybacks.

I suggest we get buybacks this year, and at a magnitude that BP did.

Obviously in my humble opinion, before I get another stalker!

Apologies - keep all forecasts to PEAKS original thread, I was just asking what the likely Div might be ?

What’s your thoughts on initial Div price?

Nice one PEAK!

It’s a 4.86 from me 👍

Great post 👍👍

AUKUS is obviously separate to SMR progress, I hope most on here know that.

But you are very wrong to suggest it’s “one after another”.

SMR will be progressed at speed (as it already has been doing) once government announce the contract(s) in June. 👍

Yeah, that’s not me Svend. Feel free to report him/her 👍👍

....yeah, apologies.... I've got Cat flu. Worse than man flu.

Sorry NuckyT. 🐈‍⬛

... if it helps:

1) RR will now use Sheffield Forgemasters (as a third party supplier) in the interim.

2) RR is still proceeding with the second factory to actually produce the SMRs

As long as RR get the decent order book, they will no doubt continue their original plan of building the heavy pressure vessel factory in the near future.

Or, you could just post a negative headline with your negative tagline.

Do some research.

You are so off the mark it hurts NuckyT.

Has anyone seen this yet? It seems to be a marmite film to be honest. Watched it last night and personal I was deeply moved by it. One man's desire to be recognised for his skills, that unfortunately lead to a cataclysmic death toll that he would try and justify in careful rhetoric after the deed but would fall on deaf ears, due to his obvious convictions in communist ideology, and a US that didn't really want to hear it under Truman.

A very basic comparison but Jeff Goldblum's line as Dr Ian Malcolm in Jurassic Park suggested:

"...but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, that they didn't stop to think if they should"

I do wonder if Spielberg wrote that about Oppenheimer in some way - it seems to fit like a glove.

Anyway, my point of this is to suggest that maybe we do lose track in what we invest in at times? I wasn't very happy with the increase based on GDP for defence last week, although I celebrated it at the time with RR being prime to get a part of the billions invested over the next 10 years...

... Maybe I'm getting old. I just seem to be evaluating everything a little more that I used to - it's not just about the cash to me anymore, possibly never has been, so why do I do it?

I think I'll park happily at £7 come Feb 2025. I'll no doubt do an Oppenheimer and wonder where my invested money ended up. Did it kill people through defence? Or did it fly people on Airbus to their honeymoon destination....

...and as such, which is worse?

I may just become a cat again. Sit in front of the fire, pretend not to care - whilst knowing everything.
