no problem buying with Barclays. . . .

Yes gkb47 - it’s very important, for total transparency, that people understand that the contract award is for “up to” a maximum of £374m. BUT, it could be for a lot less, so it is impossible to make any future cash projections, until this award value is finalised. Obviously, we all hope that it will be at the very top end! ATB

Congratulations! My target price is £4.65p - so a way to go yet; but happy to wait, as get there this will. . . ATB

on the up-side, futures are looking good, for a decent positive start at 8am; it all helps! ATB

yes, these results are workmanlike, but to be expected. I'm not a fan of Sutherland myself, but at least he is keeping the losses and, crucially, cash burn under some kind of control. Could go either way today here; may be a bad day but it may be good. No surprises may be enough - who knows! Difficult one to call, but we'll find out soon enough! My guess is down we go on this RNS. ATB

It’s a start and better than nothing. . . .

There you go. That's the Stock Market for you folks! AIM is SO unpredictable it's mad. Down 12%!!

A stunning set of results. The wording says it all, with no holes barred in terms of continued growth, fast reducing losses and exceptionally positive with regards to the future. We will see what the market thinks today, but with such a tiny amount of shares in circulation, if they’re happy (which they certainly should be, but the stock market being the stock market!!), then this will be rocket. Far better than I could have hoped for, so I am very pleased to be invested here, to the tune of £18.3k in my ISA (been here for five months now). . . .ATB

Ferdie, please. That RNS is NOT a "bombshell". The Director is a NED - NOT a full time Board Member. They are often signed up for their contacts or, quite simply, for their name in the market. NED's are NOT critical to success. Add to that the fact that AIM attracts incredibly inexperienced 'investors'. The result of this? They take fright at a perfectly innocuous RNS! It's a NED, so frankly, who cares!!!!

With today's RNS. Nothing. It's just the usual AIM nonsense. So why waste a weekend, saying how much its going to 'fly' on Monday and this week, when you have 100% zero idea how it will move!? It's AIM. Which has FAR fewer serious investors and FAR less readable signs. It is just how it is. This could be 50p on Friday. It could be £1.50p on Friday. Nobody here can possibly have a clue how it will go!!

PS Also rated as a straight "BUY" in this week's Investors Chronicle. . .

This is their Sunday “Midas Share Tip” so, it is very good publicity! I bought on the back of the results (£13k worth) for all of the reasons printed in the following article. . . .

OMG stunning or WHAT!!?

it keeps failing to get past the £4.11p / £4.12p mark. That's been the case for a week now, so it's clear that that's our resistance point. Only a matter of time though, as we have the wind in our sails here. . . ATB

Do we think that the available unsold berths, will have their prices sharply increased when the cruises set sail this summer? Clearly, the first vessels to leave will be filled with people that have already been “price-guaranteed”, due to the holidays being cancelled prior to the pandemic. I guess what I’m getting at here, is can we expect sharply increased revenues which (a) obviously brings in extra money! but (b) will redress Saga’s Balance Sheet very quickly? So, by the end of 2022 for example, the company could well be in rude health? My feeling is that if you’re going on a Saga cruise, then you can expect to pay at least 30% more for exactly the same cruise, that you would have taken in 2020. But it’s not a ‘given’, as EasyJet flights to Paphos for example, are pretty much the same price for September 2021 as they were last September (2020), when I flew there. But, if Saga DO go for a carefully thought through price hike, then you can expect our share price to really move on to £6 in short order and, quite possibly, this year. Those hikes will simply drop straight down to the bottom line, which would be superb! This is such a compelling company to be invested in, but they must be careful not to abuse the ‘grey pound’ that they are so loved by and who are so loyal to the brand. I’m happy that the Directors will gauge this nicely and achieve a happy medium, which creates a win/win scenario, both for the company and its passengers alike. ATB

I still think that it will take time to get past £4. It will come but maybe not today!? ATB

....those highly paid analysts so long to move this up today. That was a very good budget the the Big Banks; so let's just get on with moving this up to 50p please and stop faffing around. Thank you.

I’m a little surprised that the FTSE has not responded in a more positive way to the Budget today. I personally thought it was way better for us all, than it could have been. I’m heavily invested in Lloyds too and that has also barely blinked; which is surprising, given the new government backed 5% deposit mortgage scheme! No mention of the Travel Industry, but then again I didn’t expect there to be. It seems that Saga has not been adversely affected by the Budget, at this point.....which is good! All in all a pretty decent result, so I’m happy!

You will get sub £4 as, just as was the case with £3, it will likely as not take a bit of huffing and puffing, before we blow the £4 door down. Hopefully Budget news might expedite this. Otherwise, over the next ten days or so. But it WILL happen, of that I'm certain....just as I was that we would eventually get past the rather stubborn resistance, that £3 threw at us. In the end, as expected it capitulated... ATB

In to Saga, to hammer down my average to £3.08p, this is just so satisfying to see. My wife helped me keep my nerve, bless her, but I'm just so thankful I doubled the money I had in here to get to that figure. Good luck everyone and hope that you're all making money, or moving ever closer to doing so. If the latter, then my advice is stay in, as I reckon we have £5 at least to come, by the summer....ATB
