ITV didn't make a bid for SKY so why would anyone say they can't afford to mwalk away. Comcast are playing a blinder, why is that because they can't move without Government approval. This SKY deal is nothing to write home about, if it comes off it will dilute the small shareholders, ITV are not forced to pay out a special dividend and the 5p dividend we are all getting atm will be more like halved to 2.5p.

Please don't think this deal is great, because it isn't unless they pony up and buy the whole shebang!

As the old idiom says, seems like ITV have all but gotten stuck in 78-81p up or down by teenies. Low volumes in thin trading with the big trades recorded

end of day or whenever the market ain't looking.

There probably is something brewing, hope it happens this month!

POGO....Long term and re-invest dividends is fine when you have growth. It has not worked for ITV. Anyone who used your old chesnut in the last ten years would have been better off with Premium Bonds or Gilts. McCall took the helm in 2018 when the sp was around 150p, it did rise to the 160p mark before it slowly dropped to around 100 to 120p in early 2022. Dividends were non existent for two years so no help there. In March 2022 the share price fell from 112p to 70p on market reaction to ITV taking on the streamers after it stated it would not. That turned out to be a good move with ITVx but the market had kicked ITV out of the FTSE100 which was a killer.

Anyways it is all history as ITV in 2026 is struggling to stay above 80p, if you made your investments when it fell to 53p you are doing bok, but you are in ITV at an average way above that, maybe 90p or more. You really need a lifebelt that is why you berate me for reminding you of your paper losses. True your investment is probably underwater but can recover, but don't try and kid the kidders you are a Market Wizard.

POGO...I am long ITV hence watching the sp performance and hoping for the rare chance of an update from ITV. You may well have £18k in dividends to come but should ITV fall to 70p your shares will drop over £50k in value, so you are perhaps overexposed to even a correction least alone a crash. You don't have a clue to where I stand on ITV, so best you don't make a fool of yourself making wild assumptions. You know you are overexposed, but if all goes well you will trouser a nice profit, but there could easily be events especially from over the pond where there is a moron loose with a nuclear football. Cash is king in these times, but good luck if it all comes off for you!

The headline is misleading, the ITV sp has been flatlining as per usual. The journo who wrote the article should be done fore plagiarism as he his article just parrots every article written since last November. Just another reminder that the ITV share price is still scraping the bottom.

An announcement they are having a deal with Comcast might see a rise, but a no deal is surely going to see this fall to the 60p's at which time it will once again be another groundhog day or jam tomorrow. There must be thousands of small investors stuck in the ITV value trap.

Yep, three months old but totally relevant now.

Some are saying the Govt are concerned about Comcast's owning ITV News. So much happening behind the scenes.

Spaghetti, I don't see why you are bothered tp post that you got out last year and no longer hold ITV. So now you will wait until ITV drops to the mid 50's and may buy. Why not the mid 60's or the mid 90's, bull and bear together lol. Can I congratulate you on making the most vaccuous post I have read today. Good luck with the 50p's if you can wait long enough!

I am convinced that these ITV threads are populated by brain dead trolls, you reassure me!!

RPW, take the advice of Cont123 after all he stalks this thread 24/7 advising everyone how it's done. Remember that Harry Enfield character 'Don't do it like that, do it like this'......Cont makes millions everyday, shorting, snorting, stradling, waffling and telling everyone how it's done. Poor old Cont123 worries his socks off about other people he doesn't know aren't doing it his way. He is a master of time, spending his waking hours worrying about the fortunes of others.

ROFLMAO

I advertise my trades in advance. I give it to you raw. ROFLMAO..... yep, those tens of millions today hato be your short cover. Cont123, you are a fantasist who knows diddly squat. Why don't you get it that nobody on this thread takes anything you post seriously. Now be a good little shorter and stop your BS for as LONG as it takes you to stop telling porky pies.

Cont123 writes 'The market requires cannon fodder for the likes of me'. I just closed my shorts. I can't stop laughing at the way you see yourself as a Market Wizard churning 24/7 as you short, straddle, strangle your huge positions as you trade a hundred times a day. A;so amazing how you are also able to fret about us tiny ITV investors, it is admirable how you juggle with the obvious huge positions while your little chubby fingers dance over the keys advising all of the losers you worry about. Those bets must cripple the IG index when the market goes against your scientific wagers.

Have you ever thought of writing a self help book on how us losers can prosper by following Cont123 the Market Wizard of Oz.

ROFLMAO

Why do the 123 morons bother posting, a few weeks ago they were praising the Orange Buffoon Trump, today they are back bashing ITV. There isn't a brain between these idiots. Nobody gives a toss for the opinion of these morons, but I have to admit I get a good laugh from their comments, when their appalling grammar allows me to decipher the nonsense.

Is it an illness? it must be! What makes a person post drivel about how much someone they don't know is supposed to be losing money in ITV. Most sane people go about their business worrying about things that have an effect on their lives. But here on a regular basis we are subject to morons who seem worried into a state of anxiety about other people they don't know from Adam. Cont123, Tom Tom and the Trump loving Doolally O'malley. Still I guess it is a laugh reading the childlike drivel they post. ROFLMAO

Will Netflix have the last laugh.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) verified that Iran was adhering to its commitments, allowing for 24/7 access to key nuclear facilities.

Proponents argue it was the best possible alternative to military action, preventing Iran from developing a nuclear weapon for the duration of the agreement. We know Trump is a degenerate liar as last July he said the US had destroyed all of Iran's nuclear development sites, if so what are they bombing?

I hate the Iran regime, I agree they need removing, but Trump is now talking up what could be a huge war in the Middle East. If the US attack it will remove the pressure or take the heat off Trump's economy, his Epstein scandal and all of the scams he and his family are up to their necks in.

The world is in a bad place and my fear is WW3 is no longer a bad thought, it could happen if the US don't reel Trump in before it's too late. Trump is desperate with his popularity at the lowest level of any POTUS, as I have said, if this ends up with war, as usual it will be the innocent who are killed.

The only people with Trump derangement are the suckers who voted for him. Someone posted nobody has stopped Iran's nuclear ambition. well that is wrong, Obama signed a deal with Iran which the Orange buffoon scrapped as soon as he got power. Trump is a BS artist, the morons on here who support this Orange Buffoon should hang their heads in shame. The guy who claims to be an expert on Iran is brain dead, Trump has no feeling for Iran except to bomb it in order to take the heat off of his grubby sex crimes.

Russian lovin Tom and Doolally O'malley....please stop threatening to leave the country, just do it. I feel sorry for Portugal having to suffer Trumpanzee O'malley, he would lower the tone of any place this moron visits. As for Russia and deluded simpleton Tom, I only hope your Russian girlfriend gets a good seeing to when they haul your sorry a*** off to fight in that illegal war started by the poison dwarf Putin.

I would just ask that you leave the UK and never ever come back, it would be a bonus for us all!

ITV ready to produce a sterling update a week tomorrow, still time to buy!!

I just want news on ITV about where we are with the Comcast talks and anything else that involves ITV and the Sector. I am not interested in armchair dullards posting rubbish. Then up crops a new word Mandelsonesque which isn't in any dictionary that mankind has ever printed, Wokeism another pathetic word over used by those who can never explain what it means . I don't care if Dame McCall met Mandelson when she worked for the Guardian, I care less that she was friends with New Labour, who left office 16 years ago. If meeting people is guilt by association applies to just about every CEO in the country. Strange she did well at the Guardian which is a good read and that show made Easyjet a five or six bagger!

Another one filtered as I can't hack these very dull armchair pundits whose main aim is to spout BS and gossip.

Thanks BigEgo, I have now filtered several posters. First time I have used filters here but the tone from several posters brings the whole thread down.

O 'Malley, you tell me to grow up while you condone the libellous, childish drivel posted on this thread by you and others. Also, please do not attempt to advise me on anything, you are not capable of dishing out advice to anyone. Fact!!! Liberty still own 50% of their original stake, even admit their judgement was misplaced in selling the first tranch. Dame McCall is not linked in any way to the Epstein/Andrew/ scandal.....so next time you come out defending the idiots on here who you seem to be one of, maybe think before you put your pudgy fingers on to the keyboard. Idiot!!

Why don't you do us all a favour and sell your ITV shares and spend more time reading RNS and getting your facts right. Idiot!!!
