But remember there was a reduction of shares/ inc in price when it became ABDN, wasn't there?

I swapped to Freetrade a few months ago, can't fault them so far. Was with ii, but their charges made the swap a no brainer. My div came in at 4pm last Friday, which was ok.

Not sure about energy rationing, there has been big coverage recently of offices and plants having solar panels etc put up. I'm guessing the biggest increase in costs is fuel, my truck burns 3 tankfuls a week and the cost of filling it has doubled. I personally think that the market is jittery about recession, and the first thing that would hit would be construction, especially house building / sales. This would in turn affect concrete and aggregate sales. Is this whats driving the SP down? Who knows. I'm still buying through the Sharesave scheme and will continue to do so as long as I can buy under a pound a share. Simply Wall St put a fair value of 1.50 ish a share....

A notice appeared on Thursday on our intranet system saying that the latest financial results are to be released on 28th July, we are still flat out busy. Customers complaining they can't get loads due to insufficient delivery capacity.

I spent 2 years in South Wales 15 years ago building a pipeline from Milford Haven to Swansea to secure our energy future with cheap liquid gas from Qatar. There is storage there and the liquid to gas plant. The line was 140 odd miles in the end. And..... Has hardly been used as shortly after Japan gazumped the price and the LNG goes there now instead. The Swedish Doom Goblin and all her mates need to be told to sit down and shut up. How much has electricity demand gone up due to Teslas etc?

Equiniti are the bottom feeders of the market. In the process of moving my shares that I held with Standard Life for years away to my Freetrade account. For a view of how they're seen, look at their reviews on Trip Advisor. 166 and 167 out of 168 companies. 93% 1 star reviews

The leftie tree huggers should certainly look at the carbon footprint for manufacture, transport and constuction of a wind turbine. Add in their 25 year life plus inability to be recycled, do they save, or add to carbon output? Especially if you take side industies (quarries for concrete production, specialist trailer construction etc) into account.

I'll sell my holding now to anyone who offers 2 quid a share ??????

Binned a couple of nonperformers and put the money into i3, better investment than the previous onea.

Viable, the difference between a 747 and the labour front bench is the 747 stops whining when it gets to an airport....

Instead of looking at the day/ week price, look at the year trend. Inveating is long term, noy a quick hit. Up 100% even more in some cases, thats a great yearly return, bet the banks can't match it....

Your returns are on what you have invested, not the value of that investment. My i3e is at 11%ish atm as I bought a year ago and have topped up on low price days.

Price is a bargain really, if the dividend figure remains at its current level, at 28p is 6.1% annual return.

Nothing wrong with the price 100% from this time last year plus a monthly div that has just been increased..... What's not to like?

GGg will be happy if we get to 24.....

Very happy with this news. I haven't got millions of shares, but at 15.3p average, nets me 11% annual yield. Better than a bank account by far

Expect many sales today as the 2017 share plan scheme matured on 1st May, many who opted to sell will be doing so 1st thing. Me, I'm holding on to mine.

PS the low sp works in my favour as the Buy as you Earn scheme we have set the price every Apr for a 5 year saving plan with share options at the end. Just set up another one and will keep buying under a quid per share.

Nigc..... As Londoner will tell you as well, I drive for Breedons and in the East Mids where we're based, we have been flat out since May2020, both Cemex and Tarmac have closed plant due to (Cemex) being bought up by us, and God knows why Tarmac shut up shop. Plants running load out all day every day and the quarries in the area can't dig stuff fast enough. The only worry is fuel bills as my truck has gone from 180 to 305 quid a time to fill it up.....

Looking at the FTSE 100, 260 and all share, all 3 have around a 0.75% drop so far today, so is the whole market just having a slow/ bad day, I'm still 13 to 16p up per share, as Tony said, "What's not to like?"
