The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring financial educator and author Jared Dillian has been released. Listen here.
The share price is following a similar pattern to last year. The high price for the year was reached in 10th February at 179 pence and by early March as low as 116 pence but this of course was made worse by the poor set of results and the commencement of the war in Ukraine. Results day itself saw a range in the mid 140’s. I really hope that results this time around will push the share price back into the 170’s. I do have a feeling that the huge flood of investment that flowed into the airline sector from 3rd January this year is slowly being divested. Hope I’m wrong.
Hi Bobbins2, stupids idea of your come this far up a mountain without proper equipment. I’ve been wandering around since Friday looking for a way up to the summit without any success, and now today surrounded by thick fog, I find that I am further from the top than I was during last week. The more I walked today the further away I was from the peak of wealth. I’m happy to hang off the side of this mountain again tonight but the novelty is beginning to wear off now. I need to summit in the next ten days while the weather is fair but if it turns against us, we could be back to where we were at the turn of the year. Good luck all climbers !!
Hi bobbins2, another post of the highest quality. Did you take your Poty with you on this epic ascent ? You never know when you might need it ! Fordm, probably the wisest poster on here for residing in Switzerland. If you had the chance, you would be insane not to.
I’m hoping that the board of IAG will release an update prior to the final results next month. All being well in the final quarter I hope that we can achieve a small profit before tax for the full year.
A very wise choice Fordm and one that I would definitely make except to say that you need to be earning a Swiss salary to support the cost of living in Switzerland. In saying that, inflation is at a much lower rate than the UK currently.
Just landed in a country that is not dysfunctional. When you step away from Blighty it really makes you realise what a mess our our current incumbents have made. To live here would be a dream. I sailed through passport control in two minutes with my Irish passport but my partner was nearly an hour with a British passport !!
Yet again these hot headed brainless people are dragging our companies down. The FTSE 100 is a diversified mix of industries that should be able to stand on its own two feet. But no, the ridiculously narrow focussed Dow Jones drops and our index follows suit !!
While this individual may be correct in his assessment today, I’m not sure I am that interested in the opinion of someone who created a profile on the 14th December and who first posted here on the 16th is going to bring much to the party so I am applying the filter button.
If IAG are set to announce a dividend payment, it won’t be coming from British Airways !
British Airways will not pay a dividend in 2022 and 2023 and there will be a 50 per cent matching contribution to NAPS if any dividend is paid in 2024; dividend is limited to 50 per cent of pre-exceptional profit after tax in 2025 and dividends exceeding this would require additional payments to NAPS if the scheme is not at least 100 per cent funded;
It appears to me that company performance is almost irrelevant when the American markets complete with their over excitable hootin’ and a hollerin’ traders decide that down is the way forward. The FTSE blindly follows and by its association the majority of constituents are dragged down with it.
