I see brokers have given VM a buy rating with target at 350/360p and outperform. Should see VM start to tick up at some point. Further, I also see Bloomberg were saying that European markets in general should do well in 2nd half of this year as need to catch up with the US. Recently money has been pouring out of Europe but time to possibly start coming back.

I see ALD just took off following Carney's decision to keep base rates on hold. Just topped up here in the hope VM will follow.

NMC bounced 2.4 per cent to £11.47 as analysts played down the impact of healthcare reforms in Abu Dhabi. The Abu Dhabi regulator last month announced cuts to its two-tier health insurance system including mandatory premiums for basic policyholders aged over 40, a 20 per cent cost-of-treatment charge at local private hospitals, and a reduction in the number of private IVF treatments available annually from three to one. Jefferies saw the IVF limits as “not too onerous” for NMC’s business while Deutsche Bank called the overall impact “marginal”. Will have to wait and see on next set of results and any report from NMC.

Hi guys. Main bank shares all ticking up this pm on BoE base rate news. VM always tends to be a bit behind but also now looks like it will rise on todays BoE decision. Not sure how long they hold that though.

They did use to import a lost of pharmaceutical equipment through the UK so would have thought they would benefit from the weaker pound. Still this does like most quality stocks have its up and downs even though it is in a strong upward trend. I have been invested here since 2012 and up over 500% on my original investment but traded some through the ups and downs as well. Always a good time to buy such a stock when you have a drop like this hence the reason for the late buys going through today.

Although 220p don't look too bad a buy in price now when you see latest broker target is now around the 350p mark. Ftse due a further drop tomorrow so if this goes any lower I will also buy back in.

I have seen a lot of share options going through on various stocks on these drops. I did buy a number of tranches of VM myself last week at an average of 215p as well but sold nearly all the stocks I was holding on Friday apart from a few aim stuff and a couple of biggies that have not been too effected by this maelstrom. Not bought back hear yet though. Sitting on the sidelines and just making a few trades when I feel time is right at the moment as just not sure as to what is going to happen.

P.S. Glad I sold my bank and property funds that is for sure. Even my bullet proof overseas health stock is getting clobbered but still holding that one following after few trades with it so as to avoid any loss.

I keep thinking this will drop along with some other oilies but it just keeps on climbing and I keep holding on. Best looking share in my PF at the moment as I sold most of the others at end of last week. Just had a good feeling about rdsb plus the divi.

What did you lot do with my mate Vigilant? Strange old day we have the broker rating of underperform and 770p target but yet director deals going through. What am I suppose to do now? Could do with Vigilant's take on this at the moment and as to what is going on State-side.

I see we have a price hike now been given a broker target of just over 2000p and one of the better post breixt stocks to buy.

Thanks.

When is the next ex divi date?

Doing well here at the moment. I see Bloomberg today saying oil bulls beware as China has nearly finished amassing oil. Not sure that will effect RDSB though. Next two days indicate further drive north but expecting to see a bit of a pull back next week.

Agree should see this back at 250p this week. I bought in three tranches. One lot at 220p (a bit too soon), Next at 210p and then another load at 215p. So averaging at 215p which I am happy with.

Me too and it just started. This was one of the bargains in view of the very steep drop.

Interesting. Surprised at those large sells this morning at 119/120p when sp now bounced back to nearly 150p. Anyone buying in at 120p would have done well.

Not sure why that got posted twice. Everything is playing up again today . I see 1st support level is at 248p but might go further down to 2nd support the way this is going.

Falling again today. Might see it hit 250p way it is going which looks like it might be a good buy in price.
