@Gary I’m not comparing Air France with Wizz, I’m just making the point it doesn’t take much to move Wizz down, this news will not help. I really hope for your sake they smash the results for your sake, wish you good luck.

Wizz can't get a break...Air France just reported, 14% drop....things are not looking good. I can imagine next weeks results will be poor followed by an awful conference call pushing back timelines and making excuses. The only hope is it gets pushed down that far that shorts close and go long and push it back up.

This is a trading share guys just look at the history...it is a hedge fund/institution plaything who laugh at the board led by a 90 year old chairman and an incompetent CEO/CFO.

Wizz really need solid numbers on Tuesday to restore confidence and generate some momentum into results. Around 1050 looks like a decent entry point; however, I’m concerned management could use the release as another kitchen-sink moment, which might trigger a sharp drop in the share price. If that happens, confidence in the board could completely evaporate and the stock will likely crater.

B77 – I saw your Varadi/Kenny Dalglish comparison… he’s more Carlton Palmer on a bad day! Also, on the point about ignoring technical analysis – that’s a mistake. Technicals matter, because that’s how most algos trade. They should be considered alongside fundamentals, the broader economic backdrop, and current news flow.

POGO - How's ITV? Big drop since June?

Good luck to all holders – hopefully we finally get some positive news going forward.

B77, They are responding to the dire state of management...I agree with Damiansashas comments that analysts are full of sh%t (in the main) and they just follow the share price movement and adjust accordingly, however your blind faith in the CEO/board is delusional, for any real share-price movement you need a board overhaul or movement in Ukraine. Holding this share for any period of time is a great way to lose money.

Could be worth a punt soon as we run up to earnings.

Im not saying they don't have a c5% position, what I am saying is 0.04% is actual share ownership, the rest is noise re; instruments etc. On your 3% 'long' disclosure, that is incorrect, a notification needs to be made when a stake passes the 3% threshold but this is voting rights irrespective of whether they hold shares/instruments or whether they are long/short on a position - what counts is potential voting influence.

B77 - There’s no evidence in the RNS they’re long; it’s mostly client CFD facilitation/lending? Just think we need to be clear on the board so everyone understands the position taken as can be misleading saying BARC have a c5% stake so must be bullish...

B777- voting rights aren’t the same as share ownership., you receive voting rights through synthetic exposure as well i.e. CFD positions/right to recall etc.

@stan76 I don't know why you guys keep taking comfort in BARC taking a c5% position in wizz, only 0.04% is actual share ownership, the remainder is 'synthetic' meaning they are more than likely lending out shares to hedge funds/institutions to short OR they are shorting themselves via CFD positions.

Over the short term I would not be surprised to see this drift down to 1050 with shorts increasing. No real support until mid 10's so be wary about buying in when in no mans land unless you are doing abit of day trading. Good luck all.

From a technical perspective Wizz is looking vulnerable, it needs to hold £12ish, if not could drop to £10-11. As to whether you buy @ 10-12 it should play out well for you if you are holding long term. For it to move upwards really needs a positive catalyst, however we are unlikely to get that from management as their comms strategy is very poor, really need a positive move on Ukraine to make any difference.

B77, All the chat about an engine here and an engine there is irrelevant, you need to understand the wider economy, if the economic numbers don't come in as forecast wizz will crash in line with US/UK and EU markets. There really needs to be a wider appreciation of this rather than this wizzair LSE chat bubble.

We are seeing bit of short term support @ 1300 but If US CPI comes in hot on Thursday this is going to drop pretty hard, just a heads up as no real catalyst at present re; Ukraine as trump only sees it as a photo op and that is now in the past with Alaska showpiece. Good luck all.

Good to see the share price moving in the right direction. It's important to drown out the fear mongering and negative sentiment when in a downtrend. Well done to all those holders who weathered the storm and have come out the other side. Good luck to all holders.

(Alliance News) - DEUTSCHE BANK RESEARCH RAISES WIZZ AIR TO 'BUY' (HOLD)

@LSELoser, clear evidence that they are not working for their clients but covering their own positions...

Prime example of conflict of interest...JP reduce TP when their asset management wing have a short position on the stock....ignore analysts...

JPMORGAN CUTS WIZZ AIR PRICE TARGET TO 1100 (1350) PENCE - 'NEUTRAL'

Hi guys. not sure if you have seen the below from UBS...TP reduced but BUY recommendation which is positive news.

(Alliance News) - UBS CUTS WIZZ AIR PRICE TARGET TO 1580 (1780) PENCE - 'BUY'

Well done for those that held after this mornings price action. Need to break £11. Good luck to all those long term holders on here.

"I agree Varadi deserves credit for what he's achieved in the past — but the market's focus is squarely on future performance. If he can't communicate a clear, forward-looking narrative to institutions, hedge funds, and analysts in a way that builds confidence, the share price will remain under pressure.

As you say, the trading update on the 24th will be the next key catalyst — for better or worse. But we also need to consider the broader setup: global indices are stretched, sentiment is fragile, and Trump’s renewed tariff rhetoric (which rather conveniently coincides with the Epstein files fallout) could easily trigger a broader correction. If that happens, Wizz gets dragged down with the rest, regardless of what’s in the update.

On the point of realism' — it wasn’t aimed at you specifically, more a reflection of the general tone here lately. You’ve got DavidK (the resident wizz board paid poster) and Pogostick (who just seems to be lonely and seeking attention) claiming Wizz is heading to a 8-9 quid, while others seem overly optimistic about the short-term upside. Everyone’s entitled to their view but I believe the true opportunity usually lies somewhere in the middle
