Cheers musicalshares8, really appreciate your response and quite agree. Have a super weekend.

Really interesting to read previous posts with respect to views on a dividend payment being reintroduced. Real game changer that would be no matter how small the payment! I believe a dividend will be reintroduced at some point but cannot profess to having much a view on timings. The sooner the better but I reckon firstly, they need to tackle the debt mountain because, despite the ITP monies helping one can still scale it! By how much would determine the level of payout in my humble opinion. As Isaac Newton once said, "what goes up must come down"... and that debt must come down to a manageable number. If it does, forget wether or not SMR's will or will not impact the SP, "the skies the limit for us".

Read it earlier and looks to be very encouraging. Very encouraging indeed not just for now but also the future. LGEN are part of my retirement plans and this stock today is one of the few I can absolutely rely on. Never fails to bounce back. Never.

I've just charted tbe hourly movements and it looks like it's attempted to break through the £0.86p resistance line around a dozen times today each time falling back. Fingers crossed for a bit of a rally toward closing bell and we at least finish the week above the £0.86p mark.

Apologies onthecoast my previous posts most definitely not aimed at you in any way. (Just in case you thought they were)

I agree, not many would have made serious money out of RR in the past... but to answer your point on LTH. In the past the SP has been much higher than it is today and definitely akin to where we are in terms of Brexit, covid, Ukraine invasion, China not to mention economies of the world including inflation. All of which have conspired to make this one huge bear market. Most stocks, shares, bonds, gilts, investment trusts & funds have lost monies as a matter of consequence. At some point though the stronger companies will emerge from the mess and investments of all kinds will recover. Some will go to attain all time highs. As as Camelot famously put it, "youve got to be in it to win it". In other words, the markets can move so fast that if you're not invested the boat will have sailed and sailed into the distance at that. Why do I think RR are a good long term holding?
1. China will fully open its gates to trade without restrictions boosting the SP. [RR has operations there)
2. Inflation will drop meaning investment confidence will return.
3. The war in Ukraine will ultimately end. Everybody and every business stands to gain
4. Wide body aircraft will fully return to the skies meaning more revenue due to engine servicing contracts and new parts.
5. RR has an incredible pipeline of opportunity with new engines being procured as we speak. FLRAA. SMR & new technologies.

In other words, RR have the ability and know how to become as successful as they ever were so buying shares at less than £1 a pop today could well be one of the shrewdest investments I for one can make today for return tomorrow. A bit like planting a pip.

You pays yer money and ye takes your choice. Mine being RR.

You can read all the charts in the world until you're blue in the face but at the end of the trading day it won't force the SP to turn the same colour. And why? Because nobody and I mean nobody can 2nd guess the markets. You can try to time the market but unless you're incredibly lucky you'll mostly lose, short term anyway. It's just like what the experts say, it's not about timing the market but time in the market. That's why I'm a medium to long term investor. I don't day trade as I'm neither clever or lucky enough to succeed. As a longer term investor this strategy doesn't preclude me from following RR and posting on a daily basis though. By taking a longer term view I don't get too wrapped up in daily SP movements as frustrating as they are right now. I want the SP to move upwards but I know it'll swing one way then t'other and it'll continue to do this until the shorters fill their positions, flee and we gain a series of positive RNS's. Something RR are particularly bad at non forhcoming. This means, we on this board will continue to post anything we read and think could be of interest such as the link below (1st posted late yesterday eve) which I think could be an aviation game changer...

In the meantime, until the incredible pipeline that RR possesses hits the fundamentals along with subsequent RNS's, unfortunately, for now anyway, it'll most likely be, business as usual.

Market sentiment definitely part of the issue but today the Market's generally up including the FTSE 100. RR has now been in the red at least 2 days consecutively and today could easily be a 3rd or even 4th. (Someone with a better memory than mine might be able to confirm) Naturally, it could be just one of those drops before the inevitable climb. Hope so.

Good question Badland. Personally, i haven't heard anything that would make me think there's anything more sinister than the rancid smell of MM's at foul play here. The scale of ups & downs (volatility) will mean the day trader's are likely to keep winning until a significant and positive RNS lands.

Quite agree and have said the same myself in the past. This is a very well run company. Management seem to have their eyes on the ball with every division. In which case, long may it continue.

Think I read the defence budget was staying in tact? In which case, RR Defense Division should do well over the next Yr or so thus making a significant contribution to overall sales & profitability. Despite SP volatility I for one am keeping the faith for a medium to long term positive return on my investment here.

Morning RRI, trust all's good still? Just noticed the SP has now crossed through the £0.86p resistance line?

Up almost 2.5% so far today. Certainly looks like the market are in agreement with us now that Solvency 11 has been fully absorbed & taken as being a positive. Could be a good finish to the week?

This really has the potential to be an aviation game changer. Read on...

Really nice tick up today guys. Tomorrow will be interesting to see if the markets are thinking the same way as we do and as per casa's post?

Ha ha ha! I remember them well!

Do you two ever disagree?

Sorry RRInvestor, but what do you mean by "all good"?
Yours and Mike's posts do make me smile as I adore your positivity. But...
My last couple of posts have been facetious but they're meant to highlight a very important point... and that point is, nobody and by that I mean nobody can 2nd guess the market. It operates in such mysterious ways. Whether you be a short, medium or long term investor, it's so important to research company fundamentals and base your investment strategies around these and certainly not be influenced by any opinions expressed here especially SP predictions and particularly on a daily & even hourly basis. Just because a share price drops on the day it doesn't mean it will rebound (and some) the next. The markets are cuter than that. Much cuter.

I'll be having mine with custard... If it goes up any higher, that'll be the cream!

Only 5.035% to go before we do it!
