I think one main reason for the fall over the last few days is the possibility of the US government shutting down.

Air traffic will more than likely be significantly effected.

If they manage to pass a bill they will stay open until nov 17, where this news will hopefully get the share price back on track next week. If they shut down, who knows what will happen.

Ah, don't worry about the share price badland, once the US get back on track this week it will rise again.

H ha ha you're funny badland, I'm laughing my head off here

So I'm presuming it's in a general investment account GIA.

Wow that is a sickener! I really feel for you there.

So you bought a load of x3 granite shares when rolls were down last year in your GIA account and they shot up and now you are stuck with good profit in GIA?

Badland, are you not trading inside an isa?

I think you are missing the point.

Are u sure about that rick123?

I don't think it matters whether you bought in at 2p or 10p. If they strike helium the price will rocket, if not they go bust trying and we end up with nothing.

Sure, here is the link.

Strange that, "this is money" has them down as sells, hope they were buys though.

Well said select64.

I'm new here, jumped in over 9p and must say this is a strange stock, never expected such a drop Tbh.

Looking at the closed trades today 1.1M shares sold, can't really get my head around that so close to drilling etc.

Anyway, let's hope they strike commercial grade helium and pi** these sellers off.

That 1m was a sell I'm afraid

Here is another link sparky, more RR related but significant imo

Hi sparky, have a quick read of this article.

Thanks for the links onthecoast, now saved to desktop.

Happy days ahead for RR

Thanks for that onthecoast.

Looking at the downloaded document "Quarterly Air Transport Chartbook" sub heading "Passenger Traffic" looks very interesting indeed showing how much airline traffic has recovered.

The latest powder coating issue was with the Pratt & Whitney engine. Contaminants were found in a metal used in the engine's high-pressure turbine discs. The problem has now apparently been rectified and current production is not effected.

I'm in the almost 10p club.

Can't wait to see what happens in a few weeks though. It's a gamble but that's aim for u....
