Bobbines all case numbers are made up to pump fear ,
Invisible lockdown to prevent mass gatherings and to push boosters as we all known
SAGE has been accused many times for publishing dodgy data
Dec 20th my estimation was '180k Covid Cases just before NY' , guessing SP not excites me anymore :)
It is all waiting game 12 days not more , IAG SP is bargain now ... lets wait and see
One of Canada's most populous provinces said it has "no choice" but to allow COVID positive essential workers to continue working in a bid to prevent staff shortages in healthcare services.
Health minister Christian Dube said Tuesday said: "We made the decision that under a certain condition positive staff will be able to continue working according to a list of priority and risk management."
He said the new variant's contagion was "so exponential" that a huge number of healthcare staff are isolating which "poses a risk" to the capacity to treat people.

Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez said official data shows that even though omicron spreads more quickly, it has generally caused milder symptoms and therefore put less pressure on Spain's hospitals than previous strains. He also cited the country's high vaccination rate of over 80%.
“It’s clear that we are in a situation radically different,” Sánchez told reporters during his year-end press conference. “We are better and more prepared to confront the omicron variant.”
Golf day traders volumes are so low right now , throw couple £mil to CBX SP will hit 12+
CBX need to shine ,some positive solid steps CBX will be on the larger scale investors radar which can push SP 30% + in a day
Fingers crossed JD .
Amran , Gazzleberry hope you guys are right , waiting CG to hit double digits again soon
Increasing case numbers also putting tremendous amount of pressure on governments to revise quarantine rules asap
Most of the people who gets Omicron are people serving on the front lines . Hospitals , Army , Travel industry (train-air) and more
You can see the news from USA ,they have revised quarantine rules asap because there is no other way unless you are accepting a fully paralyzed country-economy
Omicron`s rapid spread will force us to learn how to live without quarantines soon
these numbers and news can not effect IAG SP in a negative way , already everyone know what Omicron is ...
Especially hedge funds can not afford to loose IAG SP this cheap , i am sure Rishi started to give positive feedback to his close friends at 'bloomberg' and can expect mass purchases soon which will move IAG SP further up quite soon
These news - numbers are all part of 'soft lockdown' to slow down/prevent mass gathering , improve attendance to the booster program and keeping population on alert
After new year within 10 days , once the mass gathering threat is over and reached target booster numbers case numbers will start coming down
My post on 20 Dec '21
`Assuming that we will hear headlines soon such as ‘Highest daily infection 180k’ after Xmas to prevent mass gatherings on new year `
All those flight cancelations , people`s rush to airports and urge to travel despite one of the most intense period of Omicron pandemic in USA is a clear indication how air-travel will rebound in coming months
Hedge funds and investment firms will start pouring money to IAG very soon
The S&P 500, the US’s benchmark stock market index widely used as a barometer of economic confidence, opened on Tuesday at a record high.
It follows four buoyant days in global markets as investors shrug off Omicron concerns amid studies of potentially lessened severity and new drugs to treat the virus. Reuters reports:
The [benchmark] S&P 500 and [tech-heavy] Nasdaq index on Monday posted their best four-day rally since November 2020, with the S&P 500 scaling a peak as an upbeat outlook on the US economy helped investors look past thousands of flight cancellations and Apple shutting its New York stores due to surging cases.
The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Monday shortened the recommended isolation time for Americans with asymptomatic cases of Covid-19 to five days from the previous guidance of 10 days.
The CDC’s update along with approvals to new pills and more vaccines to fight Covid have all helped put the three main indexes on pace for monthly gains.

Late Feb this share will hit 200p+ based on solid facts and news i have been sharing on this board for days .
My personal estimations for SP and restriction (Xmas-NY) seems correct so far and hope that IAG will reach 200p SP soon
All restrictions around the world is just to buy some time not because Omicron is deadly it is because can spread much faster then other flu, viruses
Been 2 months almost since Omicron started nothing happened yet! On top of that in SA Omicron cases are decreasing rapidly (almost 50%)
Germany , France and others using Omicron as an excuse to vaccinate population
Main reason is not to cause any distress on the healthcare system during the coldest time of the year January where majority of the population gets flu
Thats all we have to wait patiently...
Hong Kong lost it is global financial hub title years ago , it is just an another Chinese city without any influence , strategic importance .
Bobbins2 I am more focused to end of Jan , first week of Feb rather than first trading days now .
Current situation and news flow have a lot similarities with 2020 Oct-Dec where IAG rallied from 92p to over 200p.
Main question in my mind is what SP i should try to do some trade or not . gla
The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has shortened the recommended times that people should isolate when they’ve tested positive for Covid-19 from 10 days to five days if they don’t have symptoms – and if they wear a mask around others for at least five more days.
The CDC also shortened the recommended time for people to quarantine if they are exposed to the virus to a similar five days if they are vaccinated, and often to no time if they are boosted
I know Bot , thank you for your message and good luck with your investment .
IAG is the only share i have invested at the moment and thats why posting a lot information also to support any other investors feeling the pressure and have high average . gla
Bot I cant say todays society is weak , maybe physically weaker but intelligence level is increasing challengers are at much different level .
Competition is much tougher in every field pushing the boundaries of human brain . Information flowing around with insane speed and amount . This generation processing so much information and competing with the rest of the 7 billion people to survive and set up a decent life .
Quarter of the British population were affected from Spanish Flue. The death toll was 228,000 in Britain alone`. Mortality ratio to population was much more higher if you compare with Covid /70 million Uk population
Every century has its own challenges ...In Middle ages average person can not get more information than a page of newspaper of today in his whole life
Bobbines Spanish flu killed 50 million people in 1918 , when there is an outbreak of flu pandemic doesnt make much of a difference age , generation or race. Actually it was much worse before....
`Hospitals were overwhelmed and even medical students were drafted in to help. Doctors and nurses worked to breaking point, although there was little they could do as there were no treatments for the flu and no antibiotics to treat the pneumonia.
During the pandemic of 1918/19, over 50 million people died worldwide and a quarter of the British population were affected. The death toll was 228,000 in Britain alone`.
More people died of influenza in that single year than in the four years of the Black Death Bubonic Plague from 1347 to 1351.
Jtan all started with Oracle`s 100p prediction and then you replied him only way SP will hit this low if there is a RI which i agree with you ... and then we are here :)))
Oracle1953 :Boris declares Covid over ..and any other good news this will still hit sub 100
Jtan :Oracle the only way this is hitting sub 100 is a rights issue.
As it stands, you couldn't have been more wrong of your prediction thus far
By the way what do you think about todays `no more further restrictions decision for New year` and `decreasing daily covid cases`, you were expecting further restrictions as far as i remember .
Any thoughts how will effect SP on the first trading day ?
