In that case it seems that Enoch Powell was perhaps a visionary in regards of where the country that he fought for was heading to. He at least earned the right to say what he said and ok I will now get off the proverbial fence and say he was pretty much correct. However it seems he hadn't predicted the amount of lazy bone idle nationals that were happy to do nothing other than sponge off the state. They are the biggest problem in terms of UKs low growth.

I look forward to seeing some of the replies regarding Enoch Powell, I was going to add my own comment but thought better of it, I'm on here to help with my thought processes on LGEN for politics I could go on other chat groups

Followed by a finish under £6 .... Lets just follow the price trend rather than short term goals which mean little on a day to day basis.... Onwards slow and steady will suit me and I think many others just fine

I am hoping to retire about 3 years from now at 64. LGEN was one of my options to put some money in for a nice steady dividend, still happy to hold but won't purchase any more at this price. If it continues to go up I will just hold for capital gain and judge when to leave and put money elsewhere, its all sheltered in my ISA so I will await the next dividend and see where we are. I think lower than current price

I thought about it but I think Space X is likely overvalued for a company that can literally burn $Billions. Anyway much as I like the idea I think I will be dead before they even get 1 person on Mars never mind a self sustaining colony. If it drops at launch (pardon the pun) I may invest a small speculative sum

It will have helped it reach that point sooner, pretty sure it would have got to that point when war winds down anyway

This potential bid had nothing to do with being put out of FTSE100 it was just the steadily falling share price since I bought into EZJ in January /February with impeccable timing just prior to Mr Trump deciding to bomb Iran. I have as yet been unable to determine why my purchase of Marstons caused a similar issue with that companies SP just seemed to have the Midas touch earlier this year. Just need a hot summer and England to go deep into tournament and I am still confident longer term on that one. Regarding EZJ including the dividend more or less breaking even, but with or without a bid I have confidence in this giving me a good return over the next 2 years

EZJ dropped out of the FTSE100 at the last reorganisation, due to current valuation their is a good chance of it moving back into it

Aha 500 wasn't all invested at beginning it's just a simple £100 for each birthday and Christmas. In a few years then it will become more interesting as I will be able to start moving larger sum. It's just a nice little side interest to hopefully help out longer term

I have decided to invest a small amount of cash £100 as birthday and Christmas presents for Grandchild I'm sure many others do something similar, various other family members supply him with more toys and clothes than needed. I have currently switched his money into NWG happy to leave it here for a few years nice dividend and good chance of capital gain. As I have a 20ish year investment plan any ideas on that timeframe would be welcome. I initially started with a Vanguard US500 index tracker probably should have left it there but may switch back if that index drops from its highs. As to performance £500 has been turned into just over £610 in 2 years if I could keep that going would be a nice sum by age 21

Please could someone help me with this. As I understand a short is basically a punt on share price falling in that an individual or fund manager has sold shares that they do not own in the hope of buying them back at a lower price. If the SP does the opposite and rises which is what I think most of us on this board would like to happen is there a fixed date when these positions have to be closed or are they open ended. Would this affect the SP in any way other than the fact 5% EasyJet shares need to be purchased to unwind these positions thus helping create demand for the shares. Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to help me understand

I've been around long enough to have watched all the England disasters unfold on the back of picking players on past reputation, in terms of big names, Palmer, Foden and "Trent" as Carragher refers to him haven't done enough to warrant a place in the squad. I think England will stay in the tournament long enough to sell lots of beer

Market is closed tomorrow so yes the SP will stay the same

I am also a fairly recent shareholder in TRN. I also work on the railway. I would be amazed if GB rail get their ticketing operation off the ground anytime soon. Every project in this industry is mismanaged and delayed usually by years.

My NWG shares on Ii , dividend received middle of the 6th auto reinvest on 7th

I've moved over sold my modest holding about 2 weeks back and bought the US$ version got lucky with the changeover made about 5% still think this company will be good when ME crisis is finished

I am going to put this on monthly investment and happy at the long term prospects if price continues to fall then I get more shares, always another war on the horizon with Putin and Trump in power

As previously stated I left CCL UK a few weeks back and bought into CCL Corp USA on a very lucky price dip. Seems you can't now trade the UK CCL. If you like this company I think you need to get in quick

Why not use Trump to make some money, the only issue is trying to second guess his next move. Hold some cash and await his next project after he gets bored with Iran

Just blocked him saves reading his puerile drivel
