The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring Jeremy Skillington, CEO of Poolbeg Pharma has just been released. Listen here.
No I was referring to asssk. But if the shoe fits ...
Love how haters ignore October 7th - kidnapping, rape, and mass murder.
Anyway back to EZJ. Bring on tomorrow
Same gibberish different hater. Peddling the same lies he reads from likeminded haters.
Anyway you're new here so toddle on orb just stick to EZJ conversation.
Stille - no hard feelings. And yes I think tomorrow will be solid albeit with the usual cautionary remarks about geo political situations. Today reflects that and subject to calm in the ME we should rise though I think we'll stagnate in mid range until this is truly over.
Airlines - you gotta love them.
stille my hysterical lad - the us cannot afford - i repeat- cannot afford to stop being friends with israel. as the only democracy in the middle east that has a *** pride parade, that doesn't oppress women, that has arabs in the knesset and so many in all forms of industry, the us needs a democratic country in that region. coupled with medical and technological advances (at least one device you own has something israeli made in it - do your research) they cannot afford (and frankly neither can you) to defriend israel.
Xhita you seem new here. You also seem profoundly ignorant, laid bare by your final statement, falsely implying apartheid. At the same time you claim not to be taking sides, laying bare your dishonesty.
Let's keep it to the intended purpose of EZJ share chat. All other political opinions whether ignorant or otherwise can be expressed elsewhere.
Britain's mid-cap FTSE 250 index slipped 0.3%, with airline operator Wizz Air tumbling 8.2% on concerns about higher fuel costs because of tensions in the middle East.
Other airline stocks including EasyJet and British-Airways owner IAG fell 4.3% and 3.8%, respectively.
In London, shares in airlines slumped amid rising global tensions. British Airways parent International Consolidated Airlines Group gave back 3.7%, budget carrier easyJet fell 3.6%.
Israel was on alert Thursday after its arch foe Iran threatened reprisals over a strike in Syria this month that killed two Iranian generals, and as the war against Hamas ground on in Gaza.
Days after Israel strengthened its air defences and paused leave for combat units, the US also warned of the risk of an attack by Iran or its allied groups at a time Middle East tensions have soared.
Iran is "threatening to launch a significant attack on Israel," US President Joe Biden said Wednesday, pledging "ironclad" support for its top regional ally despite diplomatic tensions over Israel's military conduct in Gaza.
Growing frustration with Mr Netanyahu.
US officials have been attempting to send a message to the Iranians that, despite differences of opinion between Mr Biden and Mr Netanyahu, any attack on Israel will met with an aggressive US response.
In an effort to ease tensions, the foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar and Iraq spoke to their Iranian counterpart this week, according to Axios.
The ministers were asked to convey a message from Mr Biden's senior Middle East advisor, Brett McGurk, about the need to de-escalate.
In case you wonder why sometimes shares rise and sometimes they don't, even on the back of an upgrade - the markets also look at the analyst in question. For example this UBS upgrade is from Jarrod Castle of UBS. Here's his stats:
Average Return: +2.1% per rating
Success rate: 54% (122 out of 227)
UBS raises easyJet price target to 850 (820) pence - 'buy'
All airlines upgraded
Probably Al Jazeera. Keep your political views off this platform and stick to EZJ.

That kinda sucks. While heavily invested in EZJ, I do travel mostly business class.
For what it's worth, EasyJet are, in their own way, performing better than Ryanair at the moment and indeed IAG. I truly believe some vultures will be hovering and what with the holiday business as well - it's very ripe for the picking.
Watch this space. Do your own research.
Their bad news is our good news. It'll be a bumper summer picking up all the extra slack left behind by Ryanair.

I reckon the sell-off is the ftse250 funds offloading. At ftse100 promotion the other funds will buy in. Look at edv.l had a massive sell-off today of 50p but then clawed it all back.
Like I said I'm sorry I was right. I would rather you were. Now we sit tight. This is mm manipulation. They are the ones ultimately responsible for depressed share price. Good news is, I think we get new market makers in the ftse 100.
Up up and away.
Sundezena - you were saying? I'm sorry I was right.
Amen to thqt
For a company to enter the FTSE 100 at a reshuffle, it has to have a market cap that puts it in the top 90 by size. Similarly, once in the FTSE 100, a stock has to fall quite far to be relegated it has to have a market cap below that of the 110th biggest company in the UK stockmarket.
a study by Smith's Corporate Advisory shows that, on average, stocks heading for relegation lost nearly 19% in the two months prior to the announcement date. Similarly, companies that made it to the FTSE 100 enjoyed average gains of more than 15% in the run-up to the news, then another 2% up to the actual joining date. This is partly down to funds that track the FTSE 100 having to sell or buy stocks that leave or join.
But that's no help to those hoping to make an "arbitrage" trade after all, this movement mostly happens prior to the review. And once a stock has joined its new index, its performance shifts new FTSE 100 entrants typically lost 5% in the two months after joining, while those relegated to the FTSE 250 were flat. In reality, the quarterly reviews are pretty predictable by the time the results are out, they have been priced in.
So for anyone expecting a sudden surge - don't. Expect a likely dip until next trading date.
