Diohihku, the only thing you've missed is the money you could've made on Saga (all the way from the 120s). Avoid this CNA dog. Down again tomorrow. And look at the mistake you made at ANIC, buying nearly 3p above the RI. Schoolboy error. The sooner the schools reopen the better.

Discodave45 You have been exposed by others on the board.We are not interested in you or Clever Investor.Just clear off! The sooner the schools re-open the better.

That's only 0.07% of their customer base. Doesn't even move the dial in terms of them achieving net carbon zero by 2045. So they want the government to partially fund the transition?. Think OFGEM will have a different view.

Disco the only thing you've missed is the money you've lost on Saga. (398)

Thanks for info but can you explain why you think a guy reporting on charging his BG van will trend this to 58.05p?....or did the link also show some TA and I missed it, apologies if the latter is the case.

[diohohku] 31/5/2021 11:27

Live and let die.......disco aka (Sheriff pepper) Boy! Pmsl. Maybe Clint Eastwood?

[waldron] 31/5/2021 10:13

Perhaps this week CNA will trend towards 58.05p

Key Points

Germany’s DAX is expected to open down 37 points at 15482 after hitting an all-time high the previous week. France’s CAC seen lower by 8 points at 6475.

It is a bank holiday in the U.K.

This despite some good news in France; the country on Monday begins Covid-19 vaccinations for everyone over the age of 18.

On the data front, consumer price index counts for Germany, Spain and Italy are due later this morning.

£1.6bn is large, £175m pa is large.You wouldn't know what large means would you boy.

That pension liability looks large for SAGA. Will they be able to afford 5.8 million next Feb?

[disc0dave45] 30/5/2021 20:09

Yep a paltry 2.8p eps for last FY after selling off a business that contributed 57% of their earnings.They have already stated Q1 is down and some idiot wants Covid to get worse and thinks it won't hit the share price for every business, not just his constant trashing of travel stocks.

[silverstool2] 30/5/2021 17:44

notsoclever, I wouldn't want to be overweight in gas/energy companies with an uncertain financial outlook (eg CNA) or buy shares in companies at a higher price than a recent rights issue (eg ANIC). Thst's just asking for trouble. Would have been better to buy Saga in the 120s. Remember, always purchaseat_thebottom. You missed the boat!!!!

Let's face it, CNA lost 70% of its market value over 5 years and crashed out of the FTSE 100. It has stated that the financial outlook is uncertain due to the COVID-19 pandemic abd increase in competition. The share price is not going up much anytime soon, despite what the broker likes to say. Best to avoid this dog.

A big jobs report looms in the week ahead, as markets enter the often-weak month of June

Key Points

The May jobs report looms large for markets in the week ahead, with 674,000 jobs expected, after last month’s disappointing 266,000 payrolls.

Stocks turned in a mixed performance in May, and according to Bespoke, June can be weak, with the Dow down on average 0.7% for the month over the last 20 years.

The focus will largely be on the economy and the Fed in the coming week, after another hotter-than-expected inflation report was released Friday.

'As expected, Covid-19 continues to impact the Company. In Q1 2021, electricity demand from our UK business customers was negatively impacted by around 15%, residential boiler installations were down 11% compared to Q1 2020, and non-essential service visits were postponed in order to protect colleagues and customers from the risks of catching and spreading Covid-19.'

You?re allegedly invested here boy, so what?s their annual operational costs?, and how are they funding them?.

[cleverinvester] 29/5/2021 21:23

So you better hope we don't have more strains of the virus or that's your investments down the toilet.I wouldn't want to be over weight in travel .I wouldn't sleep at night .

[disc0dave45] 29/5/2021 21:13

Nope, CNA have to find £175m this year and every year to 2025.That represents 40% of last years adjusted operating profit, and Q1 numbers are already down on last years.
