I've sold everything and will wait for further downturn.
What do you lot think of this Aston EV platform that will accommodate four cars including a supercar and an SUV? Is it a Geely hand-me-down? I see Rimac have only managed to sell 50 of their 150 Neveras and their next car "will use combustion"...
I fail to see what the EU-enabled invasion of Ora Funky Cats and BYD Seals to the detriment of Renault Clios and Skoda Fabias has anything to do with partially Chinese-owned British luxury sportscar maker Aston Martin...
Well I'm still hoping for 133... or shall I re-buy and just write off the gains I missed since yesterday... Tell ya what, I'll go halfway. Did you know pre-1992 1p and 2p coins contain 97% copper and are worth 2.5x the face value of the coin? That's my sort of investment!
I sold quite a bit yesterday, so I'd quite like the price to fall back to 133 please.
What do you reckon the H1 results in ~7 weeks will be like? Will Vantage and fixed-DB12 sales have any impact by then?
Thank you - please could you explain what a delayed sell is for us newbie rubes. I see a buy for 666,000 shares - was that it? I check a list of all trades on this website: https://www.londonstockexchange.com/stock/AML/aston-martin-lagonda-global-holdings-plc/trade-recap - but it only covers the past day - is there anywhere I can view previous days' trades? Is there anywhere I can see a list of all the sells?
Maybe someone could share their thoughts on the reason for today's 4% drop... or, you know, cs26 could say that the stock is doomed and then you could all react to it... because that's really entertaining isn't it. Oh and then that other guy could say "Ha ha! Sausages!"
Wow, you're right - it is Andy Palmer - "former CEO, Aston Martin". It doesn't even list his current role/company! Listing the support of a former CEO, regardless of who it is, is truly pathetic from Labour (I'm voting Reform).
As expected, Labour's list of business backers, of which Aston is one, has descended into farce: "It was pointed out to [shadow finance minister] Reeves during her speech that there are no FTSE 100 CEOs on there. Ian King on Sky News pointed out that “there appear to be several companies on there whose executives signed the letter, whose companies now appear to be dormant." Longtime Labour fan and Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales is a much-touted supporter: the Wikimedia Foundation isn’t even a business, it’s a charity… [Another signatory] is Kevin McKeever, who runs small Labour-focused PR firm Lowick."
Aston Martin will be backing Labour in the election. Though I am sickened by anything even vaguely left wing, I'm glad Aston seems to be backing the winning horse. Has Aston struck a deal with Labour beforehand, or is just just a bargaining chip ("we supported you!") for when the Net Zero socialist crazies start up?
Fortunately it was the most boring race imaginable so hopefully no-one saw Alonso's brake catch fire and limp home in 19th.
New Vanquish (replacement for the DBS) has a totally redesigned rear-end - good, they clearly read my post from yesterday. The new Ferrari 12Cilindri looks a bit... naff? Looks like they were going for a modernised Daytona but ended up with a tuned Toyota GT86. . The lights are a bit awkward and the panel gaps are unpleasing.
Aston needs more clean-sheet designs. The DB12 is a heavily-facelifted DB11, the new Vantage is a heavily-facelifted old Vantage, the DBS will be a DB12 that's crashed into a branch of Halfords, the DBX seems to be on the perennial facelift path. If the Murcielago is a re-dressed Diablo (look at the windscreen), Aston can come up with better. British cars seem to go on and on forever - the F-Type's only just died after 9000 years. Also, Astons need to look more modern. Fewer vents, fewer addenda from Halfords. The Defender and BMW iX etc. look arrestingly modern - I'd put Aston more on a rather sad Maserati-level. I hope the Valhalla can be a genuine alternative to Ferrari and not scrabbling down in the dirt with the likes of Maserati.
Well, looks like I should have sold everything, could have got a huge chunk of shares at these prices.
In fairness Lawrence Stroll is a terrible speaker, I wouldn't put him in front of live questions.
I never claimed to know better, I'm barely literate. I dare say my purchase at 306 lowered my break-even price at the time.
Thanks Bucketman, you've always been my favourite member of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
My break-even share price is 282.7.
Shall I hold everything for tomorrow or sell while I still have the chance?
If DB12s have been delayed then surely the figures aren't going to be that great?
Oh, "one of Toto's targets"... Verstappen? He's unpopular. Don't do it Lawrence!
One wonders if Adrian Newey is rumoured to be leaving because of the Christian Horner scandal or if he wants to prove himself one last time or if he wants to end his career at a great racing manufacturer and not an energy drink company... As for the article below, I didn't understand it: Stroll wants someone from Mercedes for £400k a week. Who? It's not Lewis, and it certainly ain't George. Was the article written by AI?
Aston should stick to physical switchgear. The new regulations coming from Euro NCAP dictating that five-star ratings will only go to cars that keep key features as physical buttons/switches don't go far enough. I'd like to see Teslas, Volvos and all the other Chinese garbage legislated off the road. I'm amazed Volvo sales haven't plummeted. I hope Aston don't start getting ahead of themselves with their in-house software and try to be 'trendy' by eliminating buttons... at this end of the market it shouldn't be a problem, but you never know.
This forum is by far the most idiotic, immature forum I've ever witnessed. Most videogame forums have more coherent discussions. I've currently got heavy losses but am slowly increasing my number of shares through tentative day-trading, lowering my break-even share price. To translate that for more easily bored readers: Ha ha! Sausages! Ha ha! If a miracle happened and Aston got an F1 win, what share price should I buy at on the Sunday to guarantee my order is successful? I assume 2 or 3 points below the frozen price at the time? I'm using Trading212. (The magic would probably run out by the afternoon, so I'd sell then...)
Whete did you get the November sales figures from? Many thanks.
