Sell, sell, sell. Buy travel stocks with recovery potential, like Saga, Stagecoach, IAG and National Express. Also take a look at the miners/oilers ALBA, AMUR, BEZANT, KODAL, OMI, PREDATOR, REABOLD and SRES. OMI set for big increase within next few months.

European stocks set to open higher as global markets rebound

Market volatility this week was exacerbated by a 4.2% jump in the U.S. Consumer Price Index for April, its fastest annual growth rate since 2008.

All three major U.S. indexes broke out of three straight days of selling on Thursday on the back of strong labor market data, with weekly initial jobless claims falling to a 14-month low.

European stocks are set to open higher to finish the week after Wall Street snapped a three-day losing streak on Thursday, having been rocked by inflation concerns in recent sessions.

Britain’s FTSE 100 is seen around 25 points higher at 6,988, Germany’s DAX is set to climb around 69 points to 15,269 and France’s CAC 40 is expected to climb around 35 points to 6,323, according to IG data.

We could have a competition to see who can find the longest lead time for BG to fix your boiler ☺

For some reason Norma, I ain't surprised.

Bookbroker - what you’ve failed to realise is that they adjusted jobs accordingly - COVID works 2 ways, if something wasn’t ‘essential/urgent’ it was ok to bypass it. It’s both ways in many industries. No meter reading appointments etc. 2 of my mates left the business, 1 still remains and forwards the weekly emails to me. They are hemorrhaging customers at a huge rate since they pulled that dirty stunt. They’ve had to ask the engineers, who they’ve utterly shafted, to help them by working in other areas to try to fill gaps that management created. I know where I would tell them to stick it if I were in their shoes.

Funny they didn’t send out their weekly update on the week of fire and rehire? Make of that what you like - it will have not been positive, that’s for sure.

They were static at 3.6-3.7m home service contracts for the last 5 years (see the annual report). They’ve just decimated that side of the business. Corporate suicide.

Hope I’ll see my average so I can bail. Short it before the next financial results would be my current stance.

What Temujiin fails to understand is that the Covid situation in the first three months of this year was far worse than last year in terms of infections, and that backlogs of work in all arenas increased. This will take time to work off, and with the industrial action by staff at CNA it exacerbated the situation. So it was inevitable the statement would express the underlying results of these factors. Hopefully there will be a clear run from here, my own feeling is Covid will not disappear and the country will have to adapt.

Im sure I speak for quite a few on here who dont want this board to turn into swearing and slagging off others. Thats why this new one was created I believe. Can I politely suggest we keep it fairly civil as we all want Centrica to be successful and increase the share price Whoever is admin may wish to keep it this way. Only my honest opinion
