To buy

It will all hinge on California. Simple

PM I just bought £2k worth with Halifax straight off the bat

Let me get this right, final results come out share doesn’t move, in facts drops. Now a sudden 100% increase? Don’t get me wrong I’m well under here but this seems rather odd to me and I don’t know if it’s in anticipation or good news or a game with the market

I heard it was American fire service

Ironic I don’t talk shares down, I simply share my views and opinions on a discussion board. Isn’t that what they are here for? Yes I may not always “comply” but boards are better with rational balance led discussions rather than clueless one liner blatant ramps or de ramps

Agree ironic, and is a valid point, but until someone shows their hand, we aren’t moving anywhere. My view is Stobart offered 40p previously (rightly or wrongly), and that would have been based upon their own DD and asset valuation. You could argue we are in a better position, and other parties MAY be throwing their hat in (virgin only one confirmed officially), but ultimately Flybe will be worth what it’s worth regardless of the number of parties involved. Just like when you buy a house and your running against a few others, you’ll only pay what you think it’s worth, and if you walk you walk, which is likely what happened with Stobart last time. 60p would be circa £150mil mcap which values sounds bout right to me. Remember the bidder(s) are sensible large businesses

Ironic I’d like to think your right, but given there is no bid yet, and the market will keep this in the current range until news, as it’s been fairly settled now for a good week, which isn’t a bad thing. Taking this up to 40p (another 100%), will take news of a bid, given likely bid would only be 40-60p region (imo only). Consolidation is good here now for a few weeks until news.

Looks like will be in the 21-22p trading range now until next news. Just go to sit patiently now. Imo news will be a little while away yet, these deals aren’t done overnight. Happy to hold, switch off and wait

For the believers ;-)

Starance, totally agree, the fact is they didn’t want to up it, based upon (likely) what they felt Flybe was worth.

£100mil maybe peanuts but don’t mean they’ll pay it. Business doesn’t work like that sadly, flybe will go for what it’s worth, look at Stobart they walked, nothing is guaranteed at this stage, not a deramp just a comment, to save getting carried away when the price jumps quarter of a point

Fingers crossed for that 7am RNS. Exxon news, BH details, outrider....take your pick!

Tabither people will always believe what suits their investment ;-) Just hold or take some profit, let’s not forget this is up over 130% in a week or so. Don’t be greedy. At these levels it could bag, anything more may be a struggle, so I guess you have to think is staying for 1-1.5 bag enough, do you take some off the table, or if you’ve already bagged can you back more than 1-1.5 times elsewhere. In a bearish market a profit is a profit (and before the comments I do hold and continue to hold until a deal)

You can’t get excited over an FT broker view lol claiming boom. Wait for the RNS. Virgin et al may not want a break up, we don’t know, a break up may also scupper both sides. Who knows. As the broker also says, 23p, hold.

Its a broker view, nothing more at this stage and a break up may not be as good news as a straight buy out imo. “We assume a break-up of the business looks more likely than a sale to an individual buyer,” said HSBC. Flybe’s landing slots in Amsterdam, Düsseldorf and Gatwick might be of interest to easyJet or British Airways owner IAG, while Virgin was probably interested in gaining connecting flights for its long-haul operations in Heathrow and Manchester, it said. The appeal for Stobart would be to drive traffic through its regional airports in Southend and Carlisle, while other regional airlines might be keen on Flybe’s leasing operations, the broker added”

@fibber I would say that’s rather uncalled for, when a genuine holder asks a genuine question, picking brains of other more experienced holders. Sadly it is comments and posters like yourself that put people off posting on these boards, due to unwarranted abuse. Rather than call names to myself, I suggest you read gour post and look in the mirror. Uncalled for and reported.

Fibber was that aimed at me?

Thanks guys :-)
