I would like to be optimistic and dipped my toe in a couple of days ago at 77p ...and where are we now down to 63.
The reality is that RPS has been in decline for many years now and rubbing along the bottom. I bought in 2014 at
280p and its just been down and down ever since. I would like to see it pick up but I don't get the whiff of strong management or clear strategy. It just seems to amble along and I would love to hear why it should now recover after
so many years in the doldrums.

peaks and troughs and troughs....

as I was saying.. sorry.. they certainly don't like parting with your cash when you want withdraw. £25 for a same day fast
payment!!! and up to 5 days by normal means. They obviously choose to ignore the Banks fast payment system which
other platforms use. Make a withdrawal from HL by mid morning and the cash is in your account a few hours later at
no extra charge. Didn't notice this when I first signed up with this lot but its a big incentive not to use them for high
levels of trading.

and another thing....

Snakeyes. good post. had this for some years now and got the horrors as I watched a slow decline. added a few but
lost interest and just parked my holding. as you and others have observed there's now signs of a def recovery and I'm
starting to add again. lets hope recovery continues and we all stay happy and safe with a cheery bb!

Been client and investor for many years. Peter Hargreaves used to boast 'best service,best information and best prices.'
sadly no more. Information service has shown a serious decline - broker forecasts and 'recent trade' facilities were withdrawn earlier this year with feeble excuses as to why and flimsy promises about their return which has never materialised. sad that client service has given way to cost cutting.

Stuck in mid-ocean with 'nary a breath of wind Captain Fowler puts glass to eye wondering whether Lady Luck will come to his rescue!

Dear Jim

The downside's been going on now for about six or is it seven years. By the time we get to the upside I don't think
it will really matter to me!

Held for more than 25 years now and GSK has proved to be an extremely disappointing investment. I sold a tranche
in 1999 at £20 - and the sp fell after that never having overtaken that price in more than 20 years. Its been more or less
flat for the last 5 years and the only saving grace is the divvie- but as for growth in the sp it just isn't there.

The previous CEO seemed to be a bleeding heart liberal wanting to supplement the government's ill advised foreign
aid programme and now that we've gone down the equality path there doesn't seem to be any noticeable improvement.

MB - - thanks for correcting my error! - - glasses had got steamed while I was calculating my loss...

Not the busiest of BB's on this site but then again NG isn't the most exciting share to hold.
Mine have shown modest growth in the last couple of years and because of its rather lacklustre image its a stock one can tuck away and hopefully forget.
However just reading the D Telegraph Questor column it has a SELL recommend ahead of what it reckons are regulatory
actions which could lead to a breakup of the company. Holy mackerel!
I don't have the utmost faith in the Questor column having been led astray by some of its previous tips notably International
Ferro Metals which became a total loss, but would be interested to hear any other thoughts. shares go xd 27 Nov so will
be hanging on for that at least.

sp continues to grind along the bottom. I think I've previously posted that I came into WSG in 2014 at 4p and its
been a relentless downward trend ever since and regardless of all the various contract announcements and MOU's
which have been a feature over the past six years it remains a graveyard for PI's.

Lots of hype and talk of great prospects but until it turns into significant orders, production, sales and profits I can't
see anything here thats going to move the sp to an upward trend. I hold a small number but would need to see something
tangible before I increase my holding - which is way down from original purchases two or three years ago.

why such a sickening drop on a day when markets had such a good run. seems to have been wobbling all over the place
since the CEO cut his holding.

just waiting for it to get back to the 40p pr share I paid back in 2014. Next year is my 80th. Hopefully
it might get there before I pop my clogs but then I've always been an optimist!

Mike - last time I counted there were about 635 MP's goingthrough the division lobbies

Mike - last tiem I checked there were about 635 MP's on the payroll but you're probably thinking there's only
about 400 who bother to turn up.

bought at 130p in June 2018. steady decline since. need to be an optimist for this one.

Bought at 40p in 2014. Perhaps now downward track is flattening out. 40p again by 2026 would be good.

only down a smidgen - a mere 3% - in whats been a torrid day on the markets across the globe. demonstrates
underlying strength. 10p by Xmas?

held these for many years and still underwater despite today's rise but I'm inclined to hold on.Its
not what you might call a fashionable or sexy stock but I reckon there's considerable underlying strength here.
I was amazed a few years ago while on a stopover in Goa, the hotel gate to the beach was manned by a cheerful
man in a G4S outfit!

They had some unfortunate publicity from the 2012 Olympics but that obscured the company's wider aspects and
I hope from hereon in we are looking for sunlit uplands.
