I also think it's not just fgp one might be better off out of. IT'S EVERYTHING.

Reeves coming octobrt budget might hammer in the CGT nails so deep, that all your current invrstments might be hit quite badly. May better to be out of it all until after that october speech.

It popped briefly above 1.60 yesterday. The time to leave was this year when it was above 1.80.

But of course if you are in at decently below 1.60, -- as the saying goes, it's never wrong to take a profit.

Yep there were better opportunities to sell.

However I think it's found its floor for now. Transport sector and the ftse 250 down today, but fgp up a small tad on very thin trading. No great rush to sell seems evident. I'll keep holding.

Thin volume. Not panicking yet. Lol

US markets possible rebound. If so London will lift, and hopefully fgp with it.

Yep, definitely. And so many times since late last year, good money could have been made on fgp.

Kicking myself with hindsight. Lol.

Yep. Wish I sold at recent 173+.

It'll come back.

Yep. Market rout. Overselling.

Buying op' fgp?

Very low volume. Just going sideways I think. A crystal ball would be great for dipping in and out. 🙂

Interesting sp rise going on today

Maybe. Maybe it's more fundamental.

We may find out more today with Reeve's statement in Parliament.

Climbing again; albeit on thin volume.

Pretty thin volume. No panic from what I can see.

I have no idea. Might be personal or health reasons. Not expected by the looks of it.

Sinking ship? I don't think it is. Wait for more news or sell up if your too exposed and concerned. I'm still holding.

FirstGroup said a further announcement regarding the timing of Martin's retirement will be made in due course and that the transition and appointment of a new chairman will be led by senior independent director Peter Lynas.

Odd total volume figure yesterday. Almost 3 million. But less than a million showed on trades.

How far do you think it will drop RoyGa?

Do you know when it does end?

Yep they have a dire history. But more recently since the divi was restored anyway, doing better. Hopefully it'll continue a while longer, sufficient for the sp to rise some more; perhaps closer to forecasts putting it above 190p.

First aren't only a train operator; and besides their contracts still have some time to run as long as they perform ok.

As for busses, I think Labour's plans are a bit misunderstood. They don't intend putting bus companies out of business.

"Labour will work in partnership with the coach and bus industry if it forms the next government, Shadow Minister for Transport and for Business and Industrial Strategy Bill Esterson MP (pictured, above) has said."
