Int need to be cut by fed b4 this one goes to 2900p. May require additional 6 to 8 months atleast |
Did I miss this hitting your £26? |
Nope.We're in a holding pattern here like the ftse 100.The index and shares just seem to be responding to the currency movement of GBp/USd for the moment.Let's hope we don't land but climb higher! |
Not much to say until 6th December, trading update, of course big shareprice moving event. Either up 50p+ or down 50p+ way I see it. |
JPMorgan raises British American Tobacco price target to 2,900 (2,800) pence - 'neutral' |

To be honest anything in the 3000's would see me more than happy with the great divi on offer too.
Good luck all 👍🏻 |

Adejuk I try to get as anonymous as possible - VPN (set to overseas which is a pain for many UK websites), and try to keep my "purchasing" / "browsing " footprint as anonymous as possible.

MCunliffe1 Post 7854 We are surveilled by Ring Doorbells, Smart T.V.'s, our Mobile 'Phones, our motor vehicles. It's what happens to the collected data that should be of concern. Is the data used for good or bad purposes?
Speak for yourself.
I avoid Ring doorbells(or similar), NO Alexa/Echo/Siri or whatever in my house, nor a smart telly. And don't take my old gen smartphone everywhere.
No modern car/EV with all its electronics but still a vulnerability. |
Presumably such moves would favour BATs established distribution network whilst clamping down on unregulated outlets and sub standard rival products. Apparently in BATs self interest …. but also arguably supporting the wider interest.
The deliberate targeting of youth with particularly enticing sweet flavours, the supply to underaged from irresponsible outlets, and the indiscriminate disposal of lithium batteries all seem worthy of attention. |
BATS also talking about regulation around vapes which is positive I think as the company are clearer trying to get in front of potential issues.
Good luck all 👍🏻 |
the same applies here,money talks. |
'Ms Willis said that reducing the amount of tobacco stores and slowly reducing their customer-base would have led to about $1billion lost in government revenue.
'Coming back to those extra sources of revenue and other savings areas that will help us to fund the tax reduction, we have to remember that the changes to the smoke-free legislation had a significant impact on the Government books,' she told Newshub Nation.
Mr Luxon said the legislation would have incentivised tobacco shows into the black market in an attempt to recoup lost sales.
'Concentrating the distribution of cigarettes in one store in one small town is going to be a massive magnet for crime,' he told Radio New Zealand.
He continued by saying his government will strive to lower the amount of smokers in the nation without turning citizens into criminals.' |
Thank you, although I would rather have a sound money system, than knowledge of the realities of our actual monetary system! The masses still seem to 'buy' the narrative that we have a solid system though, so as long as that remains, we might be able to continue to trade successfully for a while yet. And try and buy real assets with some of those profits before the music stops. I have no solution to CBDC's though, so perhaps we are playing with the cloud of an inevitable check mate over us, as much as the masses. Without the peace of mind that they enjoy :) Hey ho. GLA. |
I love your comment 'before the game is up on the fiat currencies anyway'.Oh so true.We had the global financial crisis in 2007/8 and this year we saw SVB and First Republic Bank fail in the US.All these bank stress tests that are carried out to convince regulators,financial institutions and governments that their banking industry is robust and healthy is all PR and smoke and mirrors.The UK government's deposit guarantee scheme of £80k isn't any guarantee at all when a full blown banking crisis comes.....and it will.The extent of overall global debt is mind blowing yet the pretence of solvency and confidence in the system goes on.The vested interests are colluding to convince everyone that the relevant authorities all have it under control and naively think everyone believes them! They saw with SVB that a run on a bank doesn't involve people standing outside bank branches waiting to physically take their deposits out.With Internet banking deposits can be withdrawn at the 'click' of a mouse now.That is until the bank stops you doing even that.....then where are you as a depositor? |
I never understood how that stood up to legal scrutiny in the first place. Whether you agree or not with state intervention on matters such as tobacco consumption, it was always extremely dubious from a point of law to essentially discriminate on grounds of age. That of one cohort of adults versus another. Entirely different to that of minors, which has strong and credible legal precedent. Not to mention the economic illiteracy of such a policy, especially when the politicians are keen to spend as much of our money on various vanity projects as they possibly can. Before the game is up on the fiat currencies anyway. Great time to be in organised crime though, I suspect. The one 'industry' that will flourish in the next few years. |
