Putting aside the usual BS from this woman, I like the claim - if true - that the cumulative investments in ITVX will be repaid by the end of the year. Bearing in mind that this was the cause of the collapse of the share price from above one pound to 70p at the time that was announced.

Onwards and upwards, clear blue skies from here on. Hopefully!

"Can't spell"... I suppose not. But we entrusted our country's welfare to a bunch of clowns who would struggle to put two words together between them. Or add up two single digit numbers.

Luvly Jubly! Or should that be Lvly Jbly? :-)

Well, it's up 4% at the moment, I think (never sure if I'm getting the bid or offer price on google. So perhaps not too bad. Let's keep hopeful.

Any insights into how that thick b---- 'Raiche from Account's decision to send frozen Russian assets to Ukraine will effect JEMA.

JEMA is UK domiciled.

Pop corn time over at the White House!! :-)

It sounds like your email went directly into the 'crackpot delete' folder.

Try a more subtle approach to the Non-Exec Directors. They're hardly going to give up their seven figure salaries and bonuses because a handful of disgruntled small shareholders ask them to.

Does this help?

Fortunate to have got in here with50k shares at around 190p (I posted on it on the day). Have top sliced a bit since then, but still hold 45k shares. I had also put my daughters in for their ISAs and SIPPS.

I think I did say at the time that the Chinese tech wallahs would overcome the frankly cynical, anti-competitive behaviour of the Yanks on AI semiconductors and sanctions for alleged Chinese State control. Bullocks.

The trajectory may be up and down, but this one is a multi-bagger in waiting. Just wait and see.

Moscow says it expects progress on economic talks with US

Russia expects “progress” on economic talks with the US in the coming months, an official said on Tuesday in Riyadh, as hopes rise in Moscow that Trump could lift sanctions imposed over the Ukraine offensive.

“We have a series of proposals, which our colleagues are thinking about. And I think that there will, possibly, be progress in the not so distant future, in the next two to three months,” Kirill Dmitriev, head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund and Moscow’s economic negotiator for talks with Washington, told state TV.

Thank you all for your sterling work, which I am sure I am not alone in appreciating immensely. The upshot is the 'true' valuation - including dividends - is comfortably north of 600p, which is extremely good news. I got in not too far above the current level just as the invasion was unfolding, and unfortunately misjudged the retaliatory impact of the sanctions. But hope to come out quite well on this one, fingers crossed.

Talks commence in Saudi today, I think, and hopefully all that will start to be unwound.

The other one I took a punt on last year (despite the obvious China political risk) was JCGI, catching the bottom @c.187p. I did this on the basis that thousands of brilliant Chinese minds would be beavering away on AI, and that call has worked out exactly as I envisaged. It now stands at 255p, still well short of its peak. Expecting a lot more out of this one. The Yanks are cynically trying their best to hold them back (don't ever be lectured by them on 'free Capitalism' and 'freedom of speech'), but China is nevertheless quietly on the march.

Thanks very much.

Trump has made it clear he prefers tarrifs to sanctions, as the latter weakens the Dollar as a reserve currency. He discussed the Dollar as well with Putin, so clearly attaches great importance to it.

The negotiating teams have/are arrriving in Saudi as we speak. Hopefully Vance will be in charge, he;s an impressive guy. Brilliant. With an equally brilliant (South Indian Brahmin) wife.

They're that country's intellectual powerhouse - Sundar (rajan?) Pichai (Alphabet), Satya Nadella (Microsoft), Indira Nooyi (formerly PepsiCo), Shantanu Nayen (Adobe), Laxman Narasimhan (formerly Reckitt, now Starbucks), Venkatakrishnan (Barclays), Ramesh and Viswanathan Anand (current and former World Chess Champions) etc. etc. All of South Indian (mostly Brahmin) origins.

Brilliant. Thanks. I'd ignore the divs unless they have been declared and paid, and held in escrow. So let's say£6 if all goes well.

This will still be at a significant discount and JPM (who have behaved atrociously towards shareholders in my opinion) will likely call for a winding up vote. The Brits will still be wonking away by blocking Russian funds.

And RUB up c. 5%. With Moex up 6%, that gives a 10% gain on top?

Peace talks, hopefully.

Moex up 6%.

From the DT

Donald Trump held his first phone call with Vladimir Putin since returning to office and agreed to visit Russia.

The US president said he and the Russian president agreed to “stop the millions of deaths” and start negotiations immediately to end the war in Ukraine.

Mr Trump said the pair discussed “Ukraine, the Middle East, energy, artificial intelligence, the power of the dollar, and various other subjects” and “agreed to work together, very closely, including visiting each other’s nations”.

Yes. Unbelievable. Difficult to imagine such people operate on share forums.

Nothing specific or useful here. Only takeover rumours and non-stop back and forth backbiting between longs and shorts. Don't even know, or care, which side any one person is on.

They don't realise they make sod all difference to the share price.

Or for that matter, even madder nutters knocking on your door with devices strapped to their waist and waving guns about.

Each as bad as the other.

Thank you Whitehorse. Interesting. Please keep us updated.

As for Mr. Trump, I'm not rushing to book any condos in Gaza. Not with those aggressive, sly, and mad nutters with long side pigtails next door. What a mess.

Well, tell him he can't have Canada as the 51st State. That slot has long been occupied by GREAT Britain. Woof woof.
