Surely AA cannot pull out of the Sirius Minerals takeover. Reports on the SXX forum suggest funds are hitting SM shareholders’ accounts already (Barclays).

FWIW, I have followed the Woodsmith Mine project since 2013. I got burnt a bit :). However, I remain a fan of the project. When up and running, assuming the world still needs a high quality fertiliser product, this mine will deliver huge profits. The numbers are rather compelling.

I also think that despite the government’s miserable failure to support SM’s Stage 2 financing needs, they might support AA if necessary.

I plan to buy a few AAL Shares when my 5.5p per share lands in my account. After all, if we don’t come through this Covid-19 the money in the bank won’t be much use. Of course, I might wait a little while to see what the market does generally.

Take care.

Stay safe. Stay home.

Bert and Ethel were in their 80s when they met and fell in love.

Being old-fashioned, they decided to save themselves for their wedding night.

The big night came and Bert got himself into bed while Ethel ‘readied herself’ in the bedroom.

She came out and looked at Bert laying there. But something was clearly playing on her mind. ‘Bert’, she said, ‘there’s something that I should have told you before you married me’.

‘What dear‘, Bert replied, ‘you know you can tell me anything’.

‘Well, it’s this’, Ethel said nervously, ‘there’s no good way to say it but I’ve got acute angina’.

‘Thank God for that’, said Bert, ‘because your t!ts are horrible’.

Lots of fair targets listed.

Your trading account will be credited with 5.5p per share (if all goes to plan).

The experience has been horrific for many good people. Take comfort that some bad people have and still are, losing far more.

Watching the news softens the blow. If you have your health then you have the world. If you don’t have your health then you are a pauper.

In time I hope karma serves me well.

For now I’ll enjoy life.

Then, in time, I’ll serve it cold.

Should that be ‘misled’?

OR

It’ll be interesting to see which over budget and late projects in the south benefit.

It still needs to pass scrutiny in the High Court.

Disgruntled shareholders, past and present, will have the opportunity to make their views known.

Anyone with ShareSoc know if this is being coordinated?

Probably will be a Yes after a bit of horse trading with Odey..

I guess when they saw the increased security they decided not to try to gain entry.

Serve it cold.

OR

Well I voted no. Happy to lose a few quid if that is the outcome.

But I suspect that the vote will be to accept the offer.

OR

I sincerely hope so.

Let’s restore our National Park.

OR

if they knew they were in serious trouble when they held the AGM in York.

The miserable faces of the BodD on that day suggests that they knew they were looking at hundreds of people who they had screwed over.

OR

The more that I hear from the weasels the more I’m happy with my 155,000 votes.

Tomorrow or so rumour has it.

quickfeet, what is your stake in SXX. You’ve been posting in this BB for 3 days now so you must be a LTH.

At to your comments regarding administration, you may be right. Time will tell.

OR

I think the vote will be Yes (but I voted No). It could be very close.

A No vote ‘could’ lead to administration. Administrators will deal with the sale in a more professional and open manner (than the BoD). Whatever the outcome of administration, I will be satisfied that I did what little I could do. I will accept the result.

A Yes vote sees those buying today gaining 30%+.

There’s still time for another twist.

OR

The sp is dropping as people fold.

I remain poker-faced.

OR

The result should be announced tomorrow.

Casapinos has probably forgotten more than most of this BB will ever know about the stock market.
