Actually Spades, a speedboat isn't such a bad prize over in Oz.
It may be a golden one.
This one is more like dear old Bob Monkhouse, with Anne Aston...
Remember that one with the appropriate title....

Hmmm. An inside job.
I always believe an outsider shakes things up more.
And we need things shaking up.
His 'i'm so pleased with this job' spiel in the RNS was very trite and very disappointing.
Dan Olley.. D.Olley. Dolley. You can see where this is heading.....
D olley by name............
I so hope i'm wrong.
This is fundamentally a good company. Just come off the tracks.
Still scarred by relentlessly supporting Woodford to the bitter end. Also by the creator, Hargreaves, selling off so many shares.

Hi Bamps,
Many thanks for replying.
Fully respect you not wishing to project on SP.
I was just asking in general terms, as opposed to a prediction.
You've covered a full reply off, though, many thanks.

Roll on DTM, or some-one breaking rank and diving in with others following.

We'll get there, eventually.

Many thanks, one again.

Bamps,
I'm a holder. Very rarely post, but regularly reads here.
Thank you for your very informative posts which you regularly make. Your time investment and expertise here is greatly appreciated by myself, and many others.
A question, if i may.

Your 9.20 post is very stark, and irrefutable.
Given that....
Why....
Is the SP languishing so much, for so long.
I appreciate 'a bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush'.... Pun intended.
Institutions will only allocate clients funds, with clear certainty.
But....
Surely some/many should/could/would be buying in now, since the evidence points quite clearly to under value here.

Many thanks in advance of your reply.

Hi rossjeal,
Sort of the opposite of what it initially appears!!
The terms under and over weight refer to the brokers expected company performance, and not directly referring to the SP.
So, underweight means they expect the company to perform 'under' expectations. Therefore you should reduce/sell your holdings, since they feel the SP will drop.
Reverse true for for 'overweight'. So, in theory, an opportunity to buy shares prior to an expected rise by brokers.

I agree their terminology is a little confusing (deliberately). Plus, it is only their opinion. Which, whilst probably holding more sway than you or I, can often be wrong!!

Hope that helps, a little.

Chuffed i managed to top-slice 20% of my holding earlier in the week at 502.2.
Bizarrely It's nice to see the SP drop!! Even though it's affects my remaining 80%.
Must be my masochistic side!!
Sad, i know.

Don't worry chaps/chapesses SP will recover, once i'm over my little bit of satisfaction.

I see each member of the Saudi football team is being given a Rolls Royce for beating Argentina at the World Cup.
Fantastic news.
This will beef up our share price Monday morning!!!!!

Ditto, got the same email.
Was thinking of letting them know their share performance is risky, and the meddling with Woodford.
Ought to get their own house in order, first.

I've lost the plot with the history, here.
Been a rights issue then consolidation, just to muddy the waters.
However, i still have reasonable (for me) holding, awaiting the magic from golden oldie land.
I also have a very small holding (£200) from the old (10 years?) IPO.
They remain a loss of 96.5%!!!!!
At the IPO they were still making noises about the beneficial golden oldie spend, which would enable the company to flourish!!
Lucky if i'm still around, never mind a golden oldie, if this dinosaur ever does anything.
Ever since Uncle Roger re-appeared, all they seem to have done is recruit so-called high-flying bods to fill middle/senior management.

Yep. Keep it up Tilly, it's appreciated by many.
Unlike Mac, who as said has become a not funny joke on here.

Anyway, Lil was let out on the galleon, last week.
She was sailing quietly along, when she saw another galleon, approaching.
As hard as she looked, she could see no crew on the other vessel.
As it got alongside she saw an old shrivelled man underneath a souwester.
So, in her usual deep masculine voice she yelled over...:
'Where's your buccaneers?'.
The old crewman looked up and shouted back...:
'Under me buckin hat'.

@del929.
As always, thanks for keeping this in eye-shot.
Maybe just maybe..... 1 day your list will reduce in length. Maybe!!!

Thanks to all for this initiative.
I will also badger the board.
Massive shame we have to attempt to extract something from them in this manner, but needs must.
One would have thought with their Army of advisors, or even of their own nouse or curtesy the Board may have twigged the need for decent unambiguous communication with the owners of the company.
Sadly, not the case here.

I pen this as a stock holder who reads this board regularly but posts infrequently.

Agreed.
A very enthusiastic amateur.
With some polishing of his technique, he could produce a far more focused and directly relevant piece, with greater accuracy.

That said, 10/10 for time, trouble, and dedication.
7/10 for presentation.
8/10 for interest and relevance.

At least the guy has bothered, and i would be the first to encourage him just to polish it up, and reduce the length to around 15 - 20 minutes.

Yep, i got it too.
From my broker.
Not sure it adds anything.

Neutral, i would say.
TUI are buying their own shares, to grant them to employees at no cost to the employee.

Can you imagine the cosy fire-side chats held between the AJ Bell and the FCA.

I bet poor old Andy was spitting feathers.
He's been fobbed off with a secret santa to represent him.

I was witness to a similar powerful situation between a firm i worked for and it's regulatory body.
The regulatory body always wins.

Well said Anton.
I too bought at mid teens, back in 2020.

Although i post rarely, I read regularly. I enjoy reading your balanced posts.
You provide some sense, amongst much nonsense on here.
That said, this is one of the better boards!!

Keep up your valuable posts.

Hmmmm, that's interestingly curious.
No HL, as you say they sold out in Feb 22.
How do they hold their nominee holdings, which they must have. Surely....
HBOS and AJ Bell hold 2.91% & 2.51% respectively.
SO, HL must have some clients with some SAGA.

Any-one shed any light?

@JppJ,
The process has been extended by 1 day, for obvious reasons.
So, you've actually got until cop, tomorrow.

Fully agree.
A sad, spectacular, and proud day.
RIP Ma'am. Thank you for all you did for this nation.
God save the King.
