Excellent post bobbins2, wish I was in the same pub as you, if nothing else you would keep laughing.

Forget 200 pence, I would be happy with 160 at the moment. I feel reassured though, Maybeonedaysoon said the remaining sellers would finish off early doors yesterday !! Hmmmm !

Qantas who released their half year figures the day before us were $6.50 prior to results, dropped to as low as $6 post results but have now recovered to $6.42. There is hope for us yet !

While raised target prices are pleasing, we really need brokers to upgrade their recommendations. It’s recommendations up or down that really move a share price.

Someone has just paid £530k for a 1987 Ford Sierra Cosworth RS500 with five thousand miles on the clock at the Silverstone Auctions. Look after your Cortina, it may be worth more than you think.

Let’s hope this positive sentiment created by Rolls Royce continues tomorrow.

Excellent results from Qantas but their share price was down by 6.08 per cent overnight. I think that confirms the direction of travel for our share price today and tomorrow. I think we needed to release our final results at the beginning of February, the moment has been missed.

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.

This is looking like a long squeeze No1Scarlet.

Indeed you are correct, Yamaha, FS1E, purple, I remember them when I was at school.in 1979.

Suzuki FS1E, purple !

No !

The bid has been set at a very precise 143.76 pence, I hope that doesn’t mean there is another large sell order in with that price as the lower limit.

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.

Well would you believe it, three days into 2023 and the FTSE 100 gained 48 points and the Dow fell by 340 points ! Very unusual. Anyway a good day for investors here, hoping this momentum continues today.

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.

FTSE 100 index up well over one point two per cent in pre market trading today. Let’s hope that translates into strong gains for our bombed out investment when trading begins again tomorrow morning.

Those after hours trades under 123 pence are not a good sign for the start of the new year. A healthy and wealthy new year to you all.

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.
