What's the feeling regarding BT/Openreach workers striking? Unions don't think that shareholders deserve a dividend? They should be reminded that it's our money that's invested in the company, that we own. Unions would send this country back to the 1970's if they could.

Many of my posts have also been removed, so you're not on your own Cont & Rob. Sad to see Rob leaving who talked a lot of sense, shame that, I like to read a balanced opinion not just constant negative same old, same old, banging the same old troll drum.

This LSE ITV site is pointless with one troll to blame for many good board memebers leaving. I will also be taking a backseat for now at least. LSE should ask the reasons why? I'm all for free speach, but when you have a troll posting rubbish for over 4 years in an attempt to scare small shareholders in to selling, who stated that he was NOT a ITV shareholder, this is your answer. LSE banned him at least once, yet they let him back in under a near identical name.

Good luck to all genuine ITV shareholders for the future.

UK public companies are trading at a valuation discount totalling about £500 billion since the “scarring impact” of the Brexit vote six years ago, according to research by a City stockbroker.

Since 2016, when Britain voted to leave the European Union, the valuation of companies on the FTSE all-share index has settled at a 20 per cent discount to the rest of the world, on an adjusted basis, Panmure Gordon found. It is the largest divergence since the early 1990s.

The discount rises to 37 per cent on an unadjusted basis, when not taking account of the FTSE’s greater weighting of banks, miners and oil companies and the global market’s leaning towards tech companies, Panmure’s research showed.

Congratulations to Wales on reaching the World Cup in Qatar that kicks off on 21 November. This is good news for ITV with many millions now guaranteed to be watching. England are in the same group as Wales and will play each other on 29th November.

Tom........"Nige wishes he was me."

Why would I want to be a fantasist? You have nothing that I haven't already got. I have no intentions of disclosing my wealth / business to the WWW, plus no one on this site is interested in listening to a big head boasting, take note Tom. I was in a position to retire at the age of 28, some people would say (although I would never say this) if you haven't made it by 30 years of age you have failed. You're going on 50 and still having to work for a living. Enough said.

Tom......."I have been very open about my trades during Covid and beyond."

No you haven't, you purchased shares in ITV around 92p, 76p & 84p. Yet you claim when the share price was priced at 71p that your average price was 70p. You always have to be in profit don't you Tom? A liar needs a good memory, something that you don't have.

I'm still waiting for your answer Tom to the following question from this morning..... Come on Tom, which large institution going to sell at a big loss?

You just don't get it do you Tom. The stock market doesn't work like that. The point is that they could manipulate the ITV share price down to whatever price they so wished, they would still not own enough shares to get the backing with such a low-ball offer. Like I and other posters on this site and ADVFN have said previosly, IMO they wouldnt get large holders to sell at a loss. BlackRock, they're not in it to lose money. There is only a small pool of shares around 10% in the market, Please tell us all who's going to sell their ITV shares at a big loss. I'm all ears Tom, this should be good.

Tom..... "The potential bidder could drag ITV down to 40p or 50p and try to buy out for as low as 60-70p."

Tom..... "Please all new readers of this board exercise caution around any predictions given by Nigeco. He has already predicting a buyout here over 100x and none have come in the 5 years he has been repeating his lies."

No, I have never predicted a buyout in ITV. Where is your evidence of this? More lies from the clown. As for giving out advice Tom, you told us all to pile in to retail in Jan 2022, MKS at 260p per share, right at the top of the marklet. Look how that turned out? I can produce the evidence if you wish?

You are the last one to be giving out advice with your track record. You should take a rest, take a long holiday from this site for a few months with your running commentary of your fictitious trades. Hilarious, as if anyone would be foolish enough to believe them. Priceless comedy from the gift that keeps on giving.

Alboumphoto........ "Tom, if you really are so succesful in your personal life (which I very much doubt) why on earth do you invest so much time in petty squabbles on a message board? From reading his many posts I'm left in absolutely no doubt that Nige is 100% sincere and genuine. Yes like the rest of us he is only guessing but guessing wrong doesn't make you a liar any more than guessing right makes you a genius."

Alboumphoto, thanks for your kind comments, most appreciated. After all my comments I end with IMO. I never give advice just my opinion. Tom is a typical troll, he would try and start an argument in an empty room. Most people can see through him by now, he's so transparent.

Hukster....... "What you are missing is that at 56p there was very limited liquidity. Liberty would not be able to buy the rest of the company at anything near that price. A significant premium to 56p would need to be offered. At the current share price of 70p, an offer a good way above 100p would be required to get any interest at all from most holders."

Quite right Hukster, just to add, all the large institutions like BlackRock would only sell at a profit. I don't see ITV going for anything less that 150p per share. Anyone paying 150p per share or £6 bln would be getting a very good deal IMO.

Typical Tom, always playing devil's advocate. It's sad really that our troll seeks attention in this way.

Why would you buy ITV at 92p is you didn't think that they were undervalued?

I wonder if Drahi is behind todays massive UT? If memory serves me right, didn't similar high UT's happen before he disclosed his BT hand?

"I see that Fleccy and NigeCo are getting all smoochy again. Might I ask you a question Fleccy? Please don't think I'm being horrid again."

Definition of a troll......

"a person who intentionally antagonizes others online by posting inflammatory, irrelevant, or offensive comments or other disruptive content Internet trolls In the late 1980s, Internet users adopted the word "troll" to denote someone who intentionally disrupts online communities."

If the cap fits Rod, aka RandyMandy, or maybe another item of clothing would be more appropriate? Lol

Contrarian, what's the ITV chart saying mate? Do we have further to fall, or are we building in a bottom. I noticed that volume has increased since end of Feb?

Fleccy... "I've got no intention of reducing my BT holdings, at all, and I expect to see very large capital paper gains in the coming years. I've given my reasoning in many previous posts, why I see BT as an absolute bargain basement share at current levels."

Hi Fleccy, what target price do you have in mind? And time-scale? I would be happy with £3 per share, anything above this price I would see as a nice bonus. Not that I have any intentions of selling anytime soon. Probably reassess once FTTP is completed around YE 2025.

Sharkz, I'm well mate thanks, well better than the current ITV share price that is for sure.

I don't see a quick recovery in the ITV share price, I think that ITVX will have to show posative signs before any recovery in the share price. In hindsight you did the smart thing bailing out at around £1 if memory serves me correctly.

I agree, ITV is trading at a discount with a low p/e of 7.5, reduced debt, and restarted 5p annual dividend. ITV must be one of the bargains of the FTSE, so I will hold to see what the future holds, too late to sell now. I intend to average down if we go lower.

Welcome back Sharkz old friend, you may well recall that Tom purchased ITV at 92p, he then averaged down at 76p, before adding again at 84p. Funny how he claims that his average price is 70p. He's now stuck in ITV along with most long term holders.

It's funny how for 4 years he didn't have a good word to say about ITV or the way it's CEO is running it, yet he chose to buy shares in this dog with his average price at best around 85p. Lol

Maybe ITV will become a target for an activist investor. We all agree that ITV is undervaled, if we can see this, others surly will too. Putting a stop to ITVX would increase the share price by 40%. IMO. The way I see it is ITVX is a gamble that may well pay off, or it may well prove to be a race to the bottom.

Billionaire's aren't in the habit of losing money, he will see the investment potential once FTTP is completed.

Maybe the weekend press will run something about our largest shareholder Drahi. and his BT intentions. I feel that something is going on for the state to make a move before his 6 month expiry date next month.
