Pasio,
That is a very polished post but does not tell us anything (well myself anyway.

'Something is cooking with Stifel in my opinion and so I wait with baited breath as this one unfolds. Either way though, I’m excited.'

Why?
Care to elaborate.

On the face of it, bookings for 2021 are down 44%. However, almost everything is having a tough time so it depends on how well they stand up to the downturn. Tui has said it expects to run 80% of its normal capacity for this summer, with 2.8 million customers already booked. The success of the vaccines is going to be crucial, here and abroad.

One was aimlessly flipping between Coronation Street and University Challenge!
One is doubtful your post carries ant weight stt, to be honest.

Thanks, guys, the plot thickens.
...and my real name is Peri!

Well, one wouldn't wish him any hardship, or anyone. IMO, Boris was never going to triangulate the virtues of 'clapping on the doorstep' with the whittling down of the NHS as a predominantly public concern - it would have been political suicide!
That's all one has to say about that.

Well, losers will keep on losing, one supposes!

Good IMO,
...must be a guilt trip from some of the high profile receivers of covid treatment. What's it got to do with anything here?

I’ll put my stocking on the mantle piece!

Good, glad to hear it ... send some of that luck over here!

'Not sure what that means for the industry as a whole.'

Any gut feelings?

The potential to grow is clear, people do want to get out again that's also clear.
The pandemic is the uncertainty, however, it appears to be on the back foot - this is still very cheap!

Tricky,

Yes agreed, streaming tv is on the rise especially with the younger generation - not hype but fact!
However, lots of shares in my opinion will now see a short lived over zealous rise in ‘good news phenomenon’, largely due to recent BOE predictions and a want for the pandemic to end.
I’m not so sure everything will bounce back by the spring.... if it does, it may well be a flash in the pan.

As a fairly newbie, it is sometimes good to know how other investors think things will pan-out, and advice picked up along the way is greatly appreciated. However, should this crash, then any decisions are and were solely ones own.
I’m a big boy now!
....and one never invests more than one can afford to lose.

Perhaps in a loose sense , ‘reincarnation’ would have been a better choice word!

I’m beginning to see what you mean guys. It’s the same old same old.
There is definitely something a miss, it would appear to be a past tense displacement defense mechanism that is now being played out. You should let it go sttt, you can’t change the past, and attacking the new incarnation of this company won’t help.

Fluttering Upwards, yes it appears so!

How is it all looking with those of you with two or three screens in front of you?
In the longer term?

Uncertainty remains, this share will languish for quite some time yet!
'The Bank of England is expected to leave the Bank Rate at a record low of 0.1% and the size of its bond-buying program unchanged at £875 billion during its first meeting of 2021. However, investors will keep a close eye on BoE’s quarterly outlook and the result of a feasibility study of negative interest rates. The central bank is not expected to cut rates below 0% soon but the central bank will most likely not rule out their use in the future. Traders will also be looking for any updates on the near term outlook as the UK remains under a national lockdown. The bank will likely upgrade its forecasts for 2020 but downgrade forecasts for the year ahead.'

Seems most of us knew this except for poor old Fawlty!

'The British pound weakened below $1.36 on Thursday, touching its lowest in two and half weeks, as investors digest weak economic data and look to Bank of England's policy meeting later in the day. A PMI survey showed Britain's construction sector fell unexpectedly into contraction in January, while new car sales tumbled 39.5% year-on-year as showrooms across the country remained shut, leading to the worst start to the year since 1970. Meanwhile, the BoE is expected to keep interest rates at record-low levels and refrain from a further increase in its bond-buying programme, while investors will keep a close eye on the bank's quarterly outlook and the result of a feasibility study of negative rates.'

This is interesting:
