-817k was a cancelled trade from earlier in the day

The site has gone back to 13 Feb LOL. I hope the trading side hasn't wiped out too

What is the point of a tax free cash ISA which all the banks are marketing for the tax year end?

At 0.2% interest at best, £1 million would deliver £2000 annually which is so low as not to be taxable anyway. It's a pointless product these days.

It is looking like the Home Delivery Service has maxed out and no new customers are being registered. The CEO is saying if you are not vulnerable, come to the store, take pressure off home delivery.

My local supermarkets are quiet and fully stocked and everyone is keeping their distance, but it is a rural area.

Extract of WHO Report Feb 2020.........

COVID-19 is transmitted via droplets and fomites during close unprotected contact between
an infector and infectee. Airborne spread has not been reported for COVID-19 and it is not
believed to be a major driver of transmission based on available evidence; however, it can
be envisaged if certain aerosol-generating procedures are conducted in health care facilities.
Fecal shedding has been demonstrated from some patients, and viable virus has been
identified in a limited number of case reports. However, the fecal-oral route does not
appear to be a driver of COVID-19 transmission; its role and significance for COVID-19
remains to be determined.

cj62. I trust your reason to be out of your home is valid (not just to get away and drink beer in Sweden) and you don't need a rescue flight to get home after BA decides to close the service. Good luck if you pull it off. Some poor woman was arrested for going on a train from York to Newcastle without a valid excuse. Plod is over reaching on this.

cj62 said "Looking on the bright side I have just booked flights and hotel in Stockholm for 4 nights. Let's hope they don't shut it before I get there." "Sweden is about the only place you can go and still get a beer"

How is that legal as essential travel under the UK Coronavirus Act 2020?

I don't think you will get home again, even if you get past check in on the way out.

"The nature of the business has not changed "....

"2 mex, actually it has with COVID-19 . If millions of older folk die in USA because of Trumps incompetence , then there will be fewer LS deals to be done and more death payouts to the insured beneficiaries instead.

800 million barrels on the doorstep being delayed.

What hope for Sealion?

Yes YingTong, of course it is possible. Any plc can sell shares to the public (the clue is in the name) whether it is listed or not, and many sell them pre IPO or in suspension

So that puts LuLu's WhatsApp story in the bin.

Tesco has "considerable" enquiries for its online delivery service too, but no slots to fulfil them. So without the vertical warehouse facility and its revolving credit facility, ALGW cannot fulfil their enquiries either.

This operational update is looking like a rearguard action rather than a vanguard action. They are all locked down in their penthouses in CA, what on earth can they do? Gobind is reduced to updating his CV on the website for something to do in between emailing " thanks again for your support" and watching Netflix

At least Prince Charles is out and about again in his chartered helicopter after infecting everyone and his dog at Balmoral.

So Prince Charles turns up from London via private jet and RAF helicopter to Birkhall Lodge at Balmoral, already infected with COVID, as are all eight of his "support team" who are all congregating in the Co-Op at Ballater to buy his food and grog (according to the postman) and infecting everyone else. Your future king?

I hope the Newport Beach lockdown is better enforced and Gobind has something useful to say.

However I think this pandemic and economic collapse has not even yet started. A billion folk put out of work and food at 4 hours notice in India, and Trump has no idea what to do. Africa will fall apart.

This will be the MMT experiment to end all monetary experiments. Money is a proxy for work and when no-one works, you have to invent money.

The ultimate stress test of a non-correlated stock. It will be interesting to watch it unfold.

"Existing time coming to very close"

Yes, we are all facing extinction soon.... but 3 guys in LA will rescue us?

Still plenty of grog in the Highland bothy.

Stay safe

I should not even be commenting here, since I exited all equities earlier in the week, but it seems to me that the sheer scale of the social, human and economic disaster unfolding before our eyes daily has not sunk in to the general public. This is the biggest crisis in a hundred years and I expect equity markets to slump even further and badly so.

I will keep this stock on a watch list, but with the best will in the world, even if the fabled RCF is announced, any SP rise is likely to be sold into as the world takes flight into cash.

It is worse than the Great Depression with 15% shrinkage in the world economy in short order. California is in lockdown and so is London. The brokers are all working from home as are ALGW directors. The worst possible moment to launch a new investment fund. I don't think Gobind will do it at this time and the upcoming podcast will explain why not ( just my view)

It is WW3 , beyond doubt. I am holed up in the Highlands with enough grog to self intoxicate for weeks.

The one upside is that COVID-19 has done more to halt global warming than a million school strikes organised by Greta Thunberg, and now they can't go to school anyway.

If they were exercised on 6 Dec, that was the six month high of 2.87p

The SP is rapidly approching nominal value, so placings will become impossible. Another financial reconstruction and EGM looms.

The rules changed in 2017 and most of NUOG losses predate that and will be treated under the old same trade rules but even now the key phrase in your limk says:

"The company must continue to carry on the trade in all subsequent accounting periods up to and including the one in which the losses are offset."

Not sure they are carrying on the O&G trade.

I cannot see how $8 million of tax losses from oil and gas operations can be applied to the profits of a plastic recycling operation in a RTO.

So the rationale has gone. It's now a scramble to rescue and pay the Shard loan which C4 bought.

The podcast talked about aggregating small recycling operators. Aye put them all in then same bin!

He wears a dustmans hat
He wears cor-blimey trousers

I am nearly as old as your mum, but no way hanging around shopping centres and coffee shops. I am off to a Highland retreat tomorrow to self-intoxicate for three months.

4p .... whod a thunk it ?
