Wow - within an hour of my post sage's new alias and all posts removed. The mods are quick these days.

Ouch! This is flying and shorters are getting fried just like back in July.

who got in at 215p yesterday. Got a nice juicy 16% gain up to 250p - which is still a bargain BUY IMHO. No idea where it will go today but Directors piling in should help sentiment. 400p sometime before year end is nailed on.

As night follows day, as I predicted correctly yet again, "sage" is back with a 5th new username . Tonight Matthew I am going to be "johanedam". Grow up and go and serve your sentence. You are a very naughty boy. There may be more usernames but I know of at least five.

Just a lot of "noise" recently. No way am I selling. The results and fundamentals speak for themselves just a matter of time before we get back to 400 and beyond and I can wait. I'm looking to double up as these are undervalued IMO. Lots of easy ways to boost SP - first, appoint new accountants asap, then it's about time John Lyttle bought some shares and backed the company he runs. Also give us a dividend which they can easily afford. That would really ignite the SP and burn the shorters. All looking good to me.

Sorry Tim

From Kantar:
The market researcher added that sales rose 10.6% year-on-year in the four weeks to 4 October as shoppers moved a greater proportion of their eating and drinking back into the home.
"This is likely a response to rising COVID-19 infection rates, greater restrictions on opening hours in the hospitality sector, and the end of the government’s 'Eat Out to Help Out' scheme," said Fraser McKevitt, head of retail and consumer insight at Kantar.

In my opinion - more lockdowns and rising Covid rates are going to push more people to eating / drinking at home. More than half the UK population can't now socialise with another household (from Saturday) and this is likely to continue for a good length of time. The current standoff between Boris and local governments will only cause further Covid cases and further stricter measures, fewer people going abroad too. More online deliveries will result as more have to isolate. Booker will lose out to restaurant and catering trade but will still sell (more) to local corner shops. Tesco main stores and sales will be the main beneficiary here. Outlook is looking good for Tesco but bad for our economy and people's health. I've raised my target price.

Tim Martin advocates Sweden system i.e. "trust the people" which has 584 deaths per 100,000 compared to Denmark (117) and Norway (51). Denmark and Norway have stricter restrictions and are saving more lives. Tim basically would be killing more people but his business would be doing better. The Swedish people and culture are very different to UK. How would "trust the people" work in city centres like Liverpool, Newcastle, Manchester? I think we've all seen the scenes in city centres when England got to the World Cup semi final 2 years ago. Swedish people don't behave like Brits. Does he want £10 a pint like in Sweden or prefer to keep serving the alchies from 8.00am their £2 pint? You can't cherry pick the bits you like about a country. In university areas Wetherspoons are crowded with students who skip from table to table infecting each other - staff can't (or won't) do anything to stop it - the pubs were jam packed - I saw it with my own eyes and couldn't believe it. Full lockdown of pubs is coming and the sooner the better. Get real Tim and think about saving lives rather than lining your own pockets for a change.

Only share on my watchlist that's up. More lockdowns and isolations coming - all good news for BOO.

Ryanair all over the media today. Finally they publish the truth of the current situation. Flight capacity forecast is down 33% from what they predicted a month ago. Passenger forecast (to Y/E March 2021) down 24% from what they predicted a month ago. Fewer flights, fewer passengers, more staff cuts, more bases reduced and more redundancies to pay for. Therefore more cash burn. This is exactly why I said I didn't believe the previously stated numbers and all I got was abuse from the usual rampers. How about Mikey takes some "unpaid leave" as he is forcing his staff to do? How can a company get the forecasts so shockingly wrong from one month to the next? Absolute shambles.

LOL - that's rich coming from DT who famously said back in February "dont see any reduction in flights in Europe etc due to population lockdowns or anything for any of the airlines"

BTW I bought RR at 115 (check my post history) so still up 55% LOL. RYA will never get such an increase.

Predictions
I predict that "sage" aka dougieoleary will be removed from LSE as will all his posts.
I also predict the same for banalitycheck and adrestia
I predict sage will try and come back with a 5th username

Predicting RYA's cash balance is a mug's game and a lot trickier (as you well know) since they recently muddied the waters by a share placing and issuing Eurobonds. It also relies on one believing the numbers that RYA publish. I refuse to play the game - I leave that to the mugs. The proof of the massive cash burn is precisely in these creative measures to shore up the balance sheet.

I have never believed those bought and sold numbers as the trades I've done often go in the wrong column.

SP will continue up as more lockdowns, isolations, pubs and restaurants shutting will cause more use of supermarkets and online delivery. I'm pretty sure latest Covid measures are too soft, too complicated and nobody follows them anyway so a full national lockdown will be needed once flu starts up. Also as other companies suffer from job losses and consumer hardship in an economic turndown safe haven is always in staples like food. All good for the likes of Tesco. No brainer.

Mum-of-one Tiggy Thompson is demanding a £476.94 Ryanair refund - after her family's week-long foreign holiday fell victim to coronavirus.
The 25-year-old had been due to fly out to Majorca on September 16 for a sunshine break with husband Martin and her young daughter as well as her mum, step-dad, sister, brother-in-law and their three children only for the hotel to be closed due to coronavirus.
Love Holidays has agreed to refund the £805 cost of the accommodation to the family-of-three.
But Ryanair is refusing to pay out because both the outbound and inbound flights took off without the family-of-three onboard.
“Ryanair is refusing to give any money back for the flights. And to change the flights I face having to pay more than I had actually paid for the original flights.
"I understand with coronavirus that we couldn't go but we wanted to book for next year. It’s nearly £500 - it’s a lot of money to lose."
Tiggy - who had booked the holiday and flights before the coronavirus pandemic - has emailed and tweeted Ryanair.
She added: “It’s made me really angry because at the end of the day there was nowhere for us to go and nowhere for us to stay and yet they were still expecting us to fly.
“I have found the customer service ridiculous and I will never book with them again. It's disgusting.”
Tiggy says she was told it would cost £90 per person, per flight to change her flights - a total of £560.
She added: “With there being a global pandemic, at the very least Ryanair could offer a refund or change the flights for free. It’s not like we have just decided to cancel it. We cannot change coronavirus.”

So ... in effect Ryanair is saying either fly with them (even if you have Covid !!) or you will lose your money. Not only disgusting but dangerous and a huge rip off. This will simply add to the already massive cash burn in the future as more and more customers vow never to fly Ryanair again.

Wow. Last chance to buy sub 200. Nice little tree shake on a minority of shares to get some big orders through for the RI. Also shorters doubling down to try and recoup their losses from last week. Don't be fooled to sell your shares cheaply guys. Back to 250 by end of week. Keep calm and carry on buying.

Yeah I got in RR at 115p 8 or 9 days ago. Still holding for the rights issue. Still got a big (for me) amount of BOO which I'll not sell for a long while. Been in BOO 3 years now so seen all these shenanigans before. Results were great (in current climate) so I'm convinced a new high SP will soon follow.

Jeez, calm down with the abuse and insults you two.

Exactly. That's my whole point. The SP is ridiculously high for the trouble RYA are in. When they publish the real figures the SP will plunge. The incessant rampers on here are so deluded, pinning their vain hopes on a vaccine like Donald Trump.

250??? It will retrace a bit but give it another week or so and 300 will still seem cheap. The RI is an absolute give away. 32p a rights share price was based on SP of 130p. SP is now 235p so go figure what a bargain those rights are now. 300 no problem.

dummy sell trade @242p
