The latest Investing Matters Podcast with Jean Roche, Co-Manager of Schroder UK Mid Cap Investment Trust has just been released. Listen here.
Being a novice that I am. If BP were to re-list somewhere else and dump the UK how would that affect the SP ?
Yup. And still below my sell-out price nearly 3 weeks ago. Talk about treading water.
Anus1. I have no connection with Tom although he's been bang on most of the time. I can make my own decisions but its good to get an opinion now and again, hence I'm in BP. Yep I'm a downtrodden window cleaner operating in Rhyl. You are very welcome to join me for a pint in the local Wetherspoons but life expectancy for strangers is about 30 seconds.
GL with ITV and yes I'm still heavily underwater here thanks to the gormless Dame and Co.
Meoryou.
Thank you for your response. Probably take a position tomorrow depending on markets.
My first post on here so not trying to stir anything but I'm tempted to take a long term (min 12 months) position here.
Done a bit of homework and the positives appear to outweigh the negatives.
Any comment much appreciated.
BigEgo. Seen as you can't read Toms messages I'll confirm on your behalf. He's absolutely right about the dame and ITV. It was a huge error of judgment hiring her initially as she's way out of her depth. She and the board have milked the business to near death lining the pockets of 2nd hand presenters, crooks and entertainers along the way.
Now now Tom. You know that's going to provoke a response........
Precisely Jed. I'll wait until ITV drops to a level worth taking on and if it doesn't I've still got a fair chunk in here anyway.
Just can't throw anymore at it at the moment purely because of the useless board milking the business via us.
I'm looking elsewhere like you.
GL
Happy to sit on the fence here at the moment whilst the dunderhead is at the helm. Just don't trust the SP to go much further as watched so many times a decline to the 60's when expecting the opposite.
Got 20k to invest when the inevitable happens.
A lot of people have been sitting on losses for years while this muppet has been running the show so any sniff of a profit and they're out, and who blames them. Hopefully it'll keep rising but once bitten stays in the mind.......I'm staying in cash for now.
She's the wall preventing this from "breaking out" Well said.
Thanks Spaghetti. Yes I've had a look and was thinking BP was possibly at the top of its range at the moment. Might have a look at Shell also but totally agree with your comment on the shift to green energy being "just around the corner" Oil is here to stay for a long while yet.
Thanks Tom. I'll take a look and get in before ex divi.
Pogo - Take a break will you.....
I've still got thousand's in ITV but no harm in having a look elsewhere.
BP worth a punt Tom ? I sold out of here last week around 77.5. Got a spare 10K to invest before the missus see's it.
Pogo. Taken like a true gent.......
Are jed and pogo multiple account holders ? All in good faith.
That a late splurge ? Maybe a resignation speech forecast. Please god.
Multiple trolls ? Dame "re-elected" By whom exactly ? more trolls. That's like saying Sadik Khan was re-elected because the people of London like him. I'd love to see the demographics on that one. Absolute joke.
If they sacked her and the board and installed nobody else the SP would rise, that I'm certain. She is totally bought and paid for as it suits certain criteria. I've no option to hold with my first batch but this goes anywhere close to .80p I'm out with the remainder. GET SHUT OF THE DAME !!
They're probably boomerang payments and end up back in the deep pockets of the initiators. The whole place stinks with these guys in charge. GET SHUT.
