Still worth a punt. Can see 1650 by next year.

As I said to the simpletons that hang around here, let's wait and see what the markets think of the TU and CFO change. Seems the markets liked it very much. Shorts and clueless derampers are panicking. 45p here we come.

Great article DayTradeNovice - thanks for the link. BOO now has a more experienced e-commerce CFO in Stephen Morana with an impressive CV and someone who can "create significant shareholder value”. The article says "Stephen has a wealth of experience with global digital businesses and is therefore very well placed to support the strategy in pursuit of our growth ambitions." I really feel very positive about the future. By the time of the next TU the results from the US DC will hopefully be stunning. Even if a takeover of some sort is is on the cards the SP will have to surge exponentially from here to get shareholders to accept any offer. Your fun punt in BOO should do very well and mitigate your horrendous losses on Glencore et al. By the way, how are your 6 houses doing?

Might be worth a fun punt at £3.50. It will get there.

Don't know about 465 that seems a bit too low, but looking like going sub 520 soon.

Still an easy 10% to come off here so £3.50 is a good entry point.

Fully expect sub £4 - may tick up a bit , but the trend is definitely down.

Merger, takeover, fight over control - all good for the SP.

John Hume, back in June 2023, I remember you saying about BIRG "very confident will see €11 by y/e or early new year". Sub 8€ is quite a long way off isn't it? What is your prediction now, as you seem to be the main expert here?

I really don't know who's worse. Spidey who has only posted negative bile on one single share (BOO) since he joined lse in October or DayTroll who doesn't seem to know how many houses he bought or didn't buy. This board certainly attracts some weird people.

I agree with Peel Hunt - 75p is very doable this year. Excellent news.

Although it’s good to see the recent 10% uplift here, they should have done much better. Gap to ETF index tracker is widening all the time. FJV have singularly failed its investors in comparison. A simple tracker would have performed far better and with lower management costs coming off.

SCB - don't forget Crawshaw bought MTRO @75 and @56 - currently sitting @37. Ouch !

Looking back on my August 2023 post, that's now ten good updates in a row. SP is still well under fair value. Expect another nice rise in dividend this year. North Lanarkshire contract should be announced fairly soon and that will boost SP even more. Having said that, I've banked some profits and sold 1/3 of my holding @343p. I'll let the other 2/3rds run for a while longer. Thank God I didn't take DayTroll's advice to sell @152p. Liontrust were a bit stupid to dump these last year @219ish ... sometimes you just need a little patience.

Topped up last week Spidey, waiting for 32.5p for next one.

💥 Boom 💥

Send in the 🤡 DayTroll

Luckily there were no fatalities this time but if the door had popped out a few thousand feet higher potentially would have been a major tragedy. Seems to be grave concerns about the Max models and also Boeing’s recent safety issues. Are airlines pushing the manufacturers to cut corners and push out the planes without sufficient safety checks? Inevitably delays on delivery and additional checks and scrutiny will cost airlines but one more accident with Max would be disastrous. Many other stocks do not carry this risk. SELL.

Asp - put me down for 56.5p please

Biggest FTSE 100 fallers today - BP, Shell, Glencore - all held by our resident doom and gloom expert DayTradeNovice. Maybe he's the one needing the Kleenex today.

Not good. Time to get out while you can. Shares are risky enough without this kind of stuff added to the mix. Nobody knows how big a fall for RYA this time but for sure will deter big investors going forward. Investors hate uncertainty. Seems the 737 Max has had a lot of problems. All those 737 Max planes that O'Leary bought will be a big liability for RYA one day.
