8pm tonight the news broke. Crisis talks at ITV. Shows just are not getting the ratings or the revenue anymore. Of course everyone has seen this coming and the Dame should have kept a lid on salaries back in 2018.

9p now wiped from this share over the next week?

Dame Milquetoast must have seen this coming for years and so has put the buybacks in place to save her own job once the high paid staff turn on her. She needs shareholder support now to save her 2.9 million a year package but maybe it is too little too late.

Glad I am out of this as it is terrible news to put out in public.

Worrying to see that some of the board's less balanced posters are here posting when the markets are closed and not talking ITV but continuing their imagined feuds with internet nemeses. Get out more. Weather has been lovely in London today.

Anyway the slide now looks to be on. Back to 75p this week possibly. If the FTSE takes a sudden turn then we can expect ITV to lose more than the average for the 250. 70p is a distinct possibility by end of June, then as the buyback fund starts to be depleted the shoters will all move back knowing they can get this back to the 50s.

Some people never learn and doggedly champion a CEO and Board that were earning more at EasyJet for renumeration packages at IT that do not reflect their performance and therefore mean they can swan around drinking in wine bars and watching cricket at Lords.

Again this will go to 60p by November.

ITV is not run like a FTSE 100 company. Very much FTSE250 with amateur CEO and Board who demand FTSE 100 salaries but otherwise are not the same caliber.

ITV fell out of the 100 top companies in 2022 and is unlikely to rejoin until McCall goes.

200k shares sold at 78.70p and bought back at 70p.

£17,600 profit.

Excellent idea Pogo. That is how you make money. Not just sitting on shares and trying to ramp them on forums.

Every year ITV falls during this summer through to winter period. Just look at the graphs. The facts speak for themselves.

Ignore the endless Pyongyang pontifications. The fundamentals behind ITV have not changed in the past few years and yet the price is always pushed lower by external forces/factors.

Once the buyback fund gets to 100 million which could be by autumn then the shorters are going to smell blood again and start betting against the SP.

The only thing that will stop the SP fall would be the removal of Carolyn, her cronies and their mistresses but as ever we can only expect inaction there.

So take a look at other shares with better growth potential that are paying dividends over the next few months (October is next ITV dividend date).

Please do not be a Pogo and get caught yet again in October with all funds spent on a share that is well below your entry point and on substantial losses. Be smart, be agile and trade around the ITV dips. No recovery to £1 here until the Dame departs and that could be 2025 at the earliest.

60p before it gets over 80 :)

Winnie is soiling her pants all over again hence she can only smell the one thing.

October 2020 if you care to look. I was being mocked for investing in Shell only for them to drastically reduce the dividend. Nigeco laughed at my £9.40 investment, then quoted me as below:

"Tom.......... "Some of you prefer fantasy to real world.

Tom........ "I am looking to the recovery. ITV has a ceiling of £1.20 max. That will not be seen for 5 years (most of the old boys here will have been cremated). Rdsb will be £16 by Christmas. £22 by next summer. My £9.40 buy in will double in 6 months. Added advantage is shorters can barely move UKs biggest company, so less stupid games to watch."

Who's the dreamer Tom?????"

Pyongyang pontificator mocks my Shell and BP buys??? Do I need to remind you that in 2020 people laughed at me here when I was buying Shell at sub £10. Told me that Shell was not going to recover anything like as much as ITV.

My money in Shell will earn more in dividends and growth in the next 4-5 months than Pogo's will in ITV. Come October I will buy back here and buy back maybe as much as 20% more in share volume.

I am hoping for sub 60p again here this year. That is where the real money is to be made now. 60p to 70p rises.

More Pyongyang Pontification......

Labour now supports privatisation????

If a private individual wants to inject money into an otherwise failing business then good luck to them. Not sure what you hope to gain from blocking Czech national from buying into UK. We have already driven most foreign investors away with Brexit. Nobody is investing in UK shares anymore and everyone is taking UK money to invest overseas.

The PyongYang Pontificator is back with more indecipherable posts!

Pogo you lost money last year. It was the only the surprise buybacks that have kicked your poor choice of "incestments" back into profit. You continue to back a CEO and Board who have a terrible history with ITV.

You are a lost cause. A wide number of posters here are now talking about jumping ship and you are still clinging on for £1. It most likely will not happen this year meaning you are missing opprotunities elsewhere. Fear of missing out means you will continue to suffer losses here whilst you believe in a CEO that the City analaysts hate with a passion.

Another one who has sold out here. Everything gone now and in Shell and BP collecting dividends this week. Need this to go back below 70p before I will buy back in.

Dame is here for another 12 months so it will not go much above 80 and once buyback fund is almost depleted the shorts will just move back unless ITV can fund further buy backs. With no buybacks this could very easily go back to 56p again.

Pogo you are a one share trader who has lost money for the majority of the last 12 months. That is the definition of stupid. To imagine you are more intelligent than me is just a demonstration of how deluded you are.

Go for it. BP profits fell but they promised to make cost reductions to bring the profit level back up. Ex divi date this week and again in August. Collect 2.25% before the next ITV dividend date in October.

100 billion valuation. Top business leadership (McCall would get nowhere near Board level). Possible M&A activity and possibility of Oil spike on top of energy doing well even in recession.

Pogo fails to learn from mistakes. This time last year he was talking up ITV. Put all his money into the one share (schoolboy error). Bought at 70p+. The share price then plummeted to 56p and poor Pogo was left looking rather stupid.

The share buyback has lifted the price and Pogo has quickly forgotten his disastrous mistake from last year and is set to repeat the same mistake all over again.

Best not to take incestment advice from Pogo.

Intelligence is stating the obvious over and over again on a public forum whilst revealing to the whole world a family tradition of incest.

I would hazard a guess that the Pogo family has seen that activity going on for generations and are loathed to change their ways now. It is how they breed out their superior intelligence.

Pogo and Winnie miss me so much that they continually reference me in their posts. Pogo are you earning money? 6 months now until you see another ex divi day. In that time your investment will rise and fall but you never cash in.

I have moved to Shell and BP who both have ex divi date in the next week. Poissble merger between the two. Possible UAE buyout of BP over the summer.

I always take a vacation from ITV during the quiet summer period. FTSE is right up at the moment but who knows by October, UK could be with a labour government, back in recession and ITV back to the 60s with buyback fund mostly spent.

I will take two dividends from the big oil majors and then move back here in time for interim ex divi date. Looking to buy back at sub 66 where £2 will buy 3 shares.

Bit of a gamble but at least holding oil stocks I cut out some of the risk that comes with holding ITV.

Jed this is up by 5.5p in the last week. No real difference in the business. I fully expect that 5.5p gain to vanish by June. We will be back to the 60s here again for most of the summer. £1 is coming with a change in CEO and Board but right now that looks a long way off.
