No , RR are the only ones who received financial backing from the Uk Government. The others have to fully fund themselves.

They all need agreement to go ahead from GB Nuclear I believe.

I appreciate your insight Jimbo , especially the Uk countermove , that’s the first I’ve heard about the government rightly accepting it be here .

Talk of 40,000 jobs in the supply line must make the Derby region a Mecca for engineers when the project moves into full swing .

I like to read up on future RR positive stories when the share price is languishing waiting for the next uptick .

Hi Folks,

Not heard anything recently about the narrow body engines project .

Last I read was that the German government was courting RR over maybe basing it in Germany and that bench testing an engine is hoped for 2028 .

Anyone with any other information on it all ?

General worry about Burnham lurching left and further trashing our economy ?

Couple of news stories on Bloomberg this morning covering the new A350s bought by Quantas covering non stop 20 hour flights made possible by the RR Trent XWB engines .

Interesting article on the supply chain for SMR

France and Germany can’t return migrants to Italy , so nothing to do with Brexit I would say

Happy,

You forgot to mention that Trump is blocking Orsted from developing more wind farms , fundamentally blocking their business working and hurting their bottom line .

That’s not happening with RR .

So this UK/US SMR deal ,

I’ve just been watching O’Shea , Centricas boss on the news .

Why is a UK Company tying up with a US Amazon linked start up , rather than with Rolls ?

The trouble is , we only need a positive story to suddenly hit the news , the share price to jump a few % and you are caught with your pants down !

You will have much more time on your hands if you just block Tim .

Sounds like if it separates we won’t get any benefits of SMRs via our current RR holdings .

I wonder if current RR shareholders might be offered first dibs at new SMR shares in the IPO ?

I wonder what the workforce think of this ?

Sold 50% just to reduce my stress levels .

IAG is up, but RR down so far .

Starmer just mentioned RR SMRs !

Explicit ,

What about paying 50% of the mortgage off with RR share sale , then leave your mortgage payments the same to clear it much faster.

Explicit

What price do you need RR to be for the “country pad” ?

What about hedging your bets and paying 50% of your mortgage off if you aren’t sure about clearing it all .

I take the point that generally a mortgage is the lowest % loan you can get .

CWWX ,

Appreciate that thanks , I’ll hold off on getting my “major RR shareholder T shirt “ just yet .

Peakdread ,

It was more along the lines of it would be funny if we were in the top 30% of private investors (I believe RR shares are 20-25% held by us little people ?) .

Don’t get me wrong I’m no big player and I doubt this success will ever be repeated by me again but maybe 80% of my stock market investments are in RR . We just wanted to share a private joke between us on what is some serious money for us little people .

My success in this share has entirely been based on this forum and what I read here ended up with me holding until now rather than selling on the first 100% profit .
