Isnt it strange that when the quarterly dividend is due, the share price strangely appreciates to accomodate the re-investment saga ! If you did not know differently , you might think that it was a planned strategy !!!!!!!

The Dame will be triumphant , irrespective of all the doubters that pervade this chat forum!!!Why are you here if you doubt the product and just what qualifications do you profess to hold that precluded you for applying for the position in the first place ? Thursday will be the testing ground and if it is positive watch everyone agree that the share is on the way back !!!
Have faith and be satisfied - Good Luck tout le monde

JpARSNIP, Too excited - Thursday 23 Feb

Final results Wednesday , in ensuing weeks looking for £0.57/58, if achieved will depart with small mark-up as have been invested at everything from £ 2,60 to £0.29 over the last17 years !! No complaints about the prices as they have all been my decision, but you know, decent decisions are very much effected by political expediences and always will be !!! There are other DOGS available out there to loose my money on !!!

Only 10 days to go for final results ! Anyone involved here should be content in the belief that £ 1.00 plus is within reach , personally I am involved at various levels , but recently took a position at £0.88 ( chasing that elusive £1 ) time will tell but all quiet on the Western front at the moment , ( notice the very clever reference to a winning film ?? ) Good luck all

jturkas, agreed the interest upon the debt may well be fixed at source , but material costs to the company , delivery costs, labour costs are all increasing which directly effect the purchasing power of the £ 4 billion debt eating it away as it was negotiated pre 10% inflation ! The company will undoubtedly have negotiated progress payments on most projects, but the bottom line will not show itself for anything up to a year. Happy days.

Debt, Debt, Debt, The main destroyer of value for everyone except the CREDITORS, and although I accept that serious companies like RR. must have a degree of borrowings to function a sum of in and around £4 billion is potentially catestrophic especially when base costs are rising at great speed. On the brighter side, a full order book is most encouraging but standard terms in engineering mean that six months to a year plus are the norm so cashflow is under pressure constantly. If RR. shares make £ 1.25 this year ,then I will be content , with a possibility of £ 1.50 plus there after but I wish there were some guarentees !!!!!!!1

What have Rolls & Vod got in common ? Both owe billions !!!! Both are on their knees whereas the well run companies have generally seen a reasonable recovery !! Now both may slowly recover during 2023/4 because both are massive institutions , but in the short term both are a day traders delight! Irrespective of any brickbats that are sure to follow this post , get real lads - look at the share prices.

Minvest, its all down to personal circumstances , not whether the share is " rock solid" or not ! I would have thought your granny would have taught you that !!!

Just sold 10000 at 0.9334 to pocket some profit, i feel that is near the top for today but will look for any re-trace next week!I dont believe in Castles in the Air like some posters on here , but time will tell !!!

Oh, painful comments ,Im going into a darkened room and cry , thank you both for prooving my point !

Dear Investorin the know, your point is valid up to a degree , Mike never bothered me as regards my investments,I found him positive and sometimes humourous, unlike some of his detractors who quite frankly were positively rude ( as if their opinion was the only valid one!) Sir, this forum is a free to air broad church and as such be welcoming of all faiths! As regards the schoolboys that I refered to I stand by that comment - I dont want to be in your gang ! Finally, goodbye Mike hello Minvest. There is more than one way to skin a cat. Private opinion - Buy RR. oVER AND OUT

Currently trading at minus £6500 on this share, but never expected any real progress until end of 2023 - early 2004 by then was looking for £2 ish. With all the speculation and ramping from some posters on here one would think that this share was a get rich quick scheme !! Having owned and run a heavy engineering company myself you get to appreciate the time lags involved twixt design to production to sales to three months payment lag. Gentlemen, it is not for widows and children !! Yet patience will prevail but not at the rate that the schoolboys predict.

Mike, What a brilliant post !!! i could not understand a word of it !!! What are candles and what are cups ??? Keep on posting as you really make me laugh, ( or are you taking the proverbial out of all your detractors ? ) LOL

Thank - you gentlemen , job done, target achieved - over and out

Could have sold yesterday at £2.01 , but on a re-trace got a bit greedy, now looking for perhaps £2.10 by end of November , the dark days of early October are a distant memory for now ! By the way , where have all the nae sayers gone ? does nobody post on this site anymore ? X MAS IS COMING !!!

see Post of October 5th, Only 2 months to go!!!!!!!!

Gazzleberry, I concur with most of your observations especially the fate of manufacturing ! I am over 73, still working in a small business that I started in 1977, ate steel dust for a living , employed various people over that 45 years, paid wages, paid 4 weeks holiday pay , accounted for N.I. ,P.A.Y.E.,& V.A.T. Only took one weeks holiday myself ( at X mas ) and took and still do , responsibility for my employees wellfare . A section of commentators on here think that the world owes them a living ! Ive ate them and am still capeable of doing so again ! Peace my friend

Just got involved here , Price affected by Tesco but Hey Christmas is coming , Looking for £ 2.00 ++ by December !

Prime for a take over bid at 0.3785 pence per share, based on the rejected take over of two years ago of £1.05. Before everyone jumps on my back,I totally understand different times , different days, but the opportunities of time reward all, providing you have the cash !!!!! Crazy times
