Go back and check novice. I bought in before the jump at 50.2p you numpty, when they were down. 10.35 am.

Surely even Centrica can make a decent profit if half their competition goes under?

Nuria - you sold @111p. never mind.

Yes, of course IAG are up 10% you numpty. I always said IAG and RR would be the real winners here.

Dunno why such a big fall today but @250p I'm convinced these are definitely worth a BUY.

Seems a good time to buy - good value at low price. CNA and other legacy energy providers could have a strong comeback. The smaller companies took away a lot of BG customers, which in turn led to the SP falling. Now these customers will have to come back to the likes of CNA, etc. The smaller companies made fixed price offers they couldn't afford and now it's coming back to bite them. Customers will have fewer choices in future - all will benefit CNA. For this reason (and growth in EVs) I'm buying.

My shopping centre has so many closed down shops I don't bother going any more. Happy to just buy online as I've done for past year. BOO will be fine and I've plenty cash coming in to keep buying more BOO shares at these low levels. Berenberg's 460p prediction is encouraging.

Booked some flights to Rome this morning. Using BA - more expensive than Ryanair but a lot less faff and I'd prefer to sit next to my wife and not have to pay an extra £52 for the privilege.

Glad to see the UK has relaxed the Covid tests rip off nonsense. That was just a cash cow for the companies involved. The new rules will reduce hassle and expenses considerably and should definitely increase demand for all airlines. Next step is to allow passengers to be maskless for flights - FFS we've all been jabbed and tested to kingdom come anyway.

New Low today (YTD) . What's going on ?

Yet another Brexit benefit. Too much paperwork and duties to export to EU. Shame.

If you learn how to read annual accounts DT you will see that RYA posted a loss of 1,015M in the Y/E 31/3/2021. Divide by 12 and that's 84M a month. Then look a bit further and you will see they have debts of 2Bn. It's all there in the accounts.

I can see now why you have the word 'novice' in your username.

Egg,
I doubt if a company losing 84M every month and with 2Bn debt will be buying Easyjet. Still, with Mikey you just never know what he'll do next.

Child 3 just flew to Seville and back , Ryanair, £33, no luggage. Tests cost £106. He's off to Rome today. Heard on news that 59% of summer holidays were cancelled or postponed. He said both flights were half full. Child 1 went to Mallorca 2 weeks ago - both flights 80% full, Easyjet, cost £90, tests cost £80. In Italy and France you need a fully vaxed Covid pass for bars, cafes, museums, restaurants, buses, trains, etc. Spain is less strict.

Went to do a big shop yesterday but so many empty shelves in fruit and veg aisles. Ended up doing a small shop and got the rest at Lidl next door. I do think the clubcard prices is a very good scheme though.

British tourists face difficulties in proving their vaccine status in Europe following a delay in linking the NHS Covid pass to the EU’s system due to gaps in the British government’s application to Brussels.
An IT tie-up would ensure automatic recognition across the 27 member states of the information held on the NHS app, facilitating both international travel and access to hospitality where proof of vaccine status is required.
The UK government made an application to link up to the EU’s digital certificate on 28 July but the European Commission has held off on giving its approval as it has sought extra technical information from Whitehall, the Guardian understands.

In its latest funding round, the company was valued at £2.4bn but the IPO could see the firm valued around £4bn, according to analysts at Jefferies.
The estimate was based on the firm's 2023 revenue targets and in comparison to its closest listed rival, $6bn Pacific Biosciences.
In the six months to June 2021, revenues at Oxford Nanopore were up 22% to £59m, compared to the same period in 2020.

DT - what about Ryanair? I see they're down 20% on 4 years ago. Might be worth a punt?

Dunno about buying opportunity but I would certainly expect some support at 112p. If I wasn't so risk averse I'd get some at this price but in current economic climate I will wait a while. They really have to get Britbox going - need a few big flagship shows exclusive to Britbox to tempt subscribers in, but I'm sure they know that and will be working on it. Bringing the divvi back will boost SP - any chance of that soon?

To be honest I wouldn't mind another RI. I made a killing on the last one.

Still here DaytradeNovice. I never posted daily. The trick is to keep adding tranches on dips and build a big holding while reducing my average. Very happy to pick up cheap shares at these very low prices. 450p seems a long while off but 400p in a year will be fine and give me a healthy profit. Rinse and repeat and be patient with this one. You know it makes sense.
