Bussiness as usual.

Sinpric,

Trump doesn't give dam about Iranians, particularly the poor ones. "This is a crisis of his own making" which has pushed him into a corner. It's all about self interest. I don't generally read the Guardian either, fine as it is. No, I only take The Financial Times.

More than likely you are correct Constipation - in that there surely will be a bounce.

🍀Lucky me has been topping up; losing nothing; laughing all the way, and well in profit even in today's mayhem.

The orange buffoon has made his speech.

I express my deepest sympathies to my American friends, particularly to those willing to tolerate 1 hour and 47 minutes of aimless self-indulgence, untruths, and boasting from a forgetful entertainer with nothing of substance to present.

Yes, while mayhem is persistent under our long suffering cousins across the pond, it's business as usual.

Roll on results.

I'm not waiting, I'm buying more right now.

ITV is looking really good. Their financial outlook is super optimistic, especially with ITV Studios and their digital platform, ITVX. They're expecting to outpace the global content market, thanks to hit shows and cool partnerships with networks like Disney+ and Apple TV.

On top of that, they’re aiming for at least £750 million in digital revenue by 2026. With ITVX breaking even way ahead of schedule, it’s clear they’ve got their strategy on point. Overall, it seems like ITV is set for some solid growth, which should be great news for shareholders!

With upcoming results just around the corner, expected to be a market beat, this could easily be £1.10 by the end of the week.

A bid offer for the broadcasting arm could easily boost this to £2.30+

Happy days

🍀

As anticipated, Trump is once again threatening to strike Iran. His most recent speech is primarily aimed at the domestic U.S. audience in an effort to curb his increasing unpopularity. It will cause market uncertainty again.

Trump’s online-troll game sparks joy among a section of his base, even those far removed from the U.S. Naturally, we have our home grown idiots (as is evident from the trolls on here, i.e. Tomfoolery club).

At this stage, we can conclude, Trump doesn’t care about the reality of tariffs. He likes them solely because they give him unconstitutional power to strong-arm anyone on the planet into bowing to his will. There is no deep economic plan here. These are the characteristics of a deeply insane individual. After he's caused total vandalism to the planet and international relations, he will be carted away for psychiatric therapy and will probably be never heard of again.

It's all too easy for those in opposition to shout how they'd do things differently. You have to feel for our Prime Minister, having to deal with the most egotistical deranged U.S President ever to have taken office.

There go the toys being thrown out of the pram, even sooner than expected!

Trump has increased tariffs to 15%, one day after a US Supreme Court decision struck down his sweeping import taxes.

Let's focus on what he's trying to hide.

Since Trump likes to put his name on everything he touches, let's just call it the Trump-Epstein files.

Constipated,

Prepare to observe a lunatic about to throw his toys out of the pram. Geopolitical risks - Trump said he would decide within 10 days whether to attack Iran, following inconclusive nuclear talks. It will also serve Trump in keeping the focus off the Epstein files!

Of course, an unpredictable and unstable Presidential idiot, who could fire on Iran at any moment, is keeping the uncertainty in focus.

Just rejoice for now as it could be shot lived.

Monday morning will be interesting, I think!

There’s surely a German word for loving the humiliation of Trump, while hating the damage done by his idiocy. I just can't think what it is?

Tariffs were illegal, and markets react.

It's only a matter of time before he's found out and implicated in the other big topic too.

Another day, business as usual an prospects still looking good. Roll on results in early March.

A sharp observation, BigEgo. It certainly appears that the foundations of what we know are shifting. While new members are busy getting to know our local oddball loon, the Tomfoolery club (and its many faces), discussions about Sky and ITV are still moving forward.

(the filtered Tomfoolery hasn't been read)

Yes, a slight fall is perfectly normal, although I did think it might have gone up today. Because myself, and many many others, haven't sold a single share, it's the same old story, we haven't lost a penny. Quite the opposite, I'm well up on my average.

I’ve been out of the loop for a few days, so I’m catching up on posts now. I noticed you’ve already shared about the NUJ submission, BigEgo!

Great

🍀

Yes, BigEgo,

The National Union of Journalists is a solid organisation that looks out for journalists in the UK and Ireland. They’re all about advocating for journalists’ rights and improving working conditions while pushing for top-notch ethical standards in the field. With a strong membership, people really respect the NUJ for its insight on media matters, and media outlets often turn to them for advice on press freedom and regulations. Plus, their commitment to transparency and providing training and resources makes them a go-to voice in journalism.

I would say this is a very credible source.
