I’m sort of hoping that £25 is the base level. Suet |
I’m rather more interested in the upward breach of the 200 day moving average. But yes taken with the impressive sales performance of both drink categories 2025 is looking up. |
The Guinness shortage is real. My local is having problems with stock.
Complete incompetence. |

£37 was some 18 mths ago. Why are you still here? You're obviously not looking for a buy-in.Although I do agree, it's not the share it was.As for the shortage, didn't Heineken declare that they were running out of gas for their lager just before the Euros, never happened. Is the shortage Guinness or Guinness zero, there's no shortage of either in Ireland or any of the other 4 sites around the world where they make it.As it's said do your own research and make your own luck, cheers. |

BTCWell done on your foresight, congrats.Could you enlighten everyone as to why they need a placing, were you serious!. |
Complete misjudgement regarding Guinness.
FFS by the time they get production to the level required, the fad (and Christmas) will be over.
I have no confidence in the people running this firm and am relieved that I dumped the lot at about £37. |
"They’ve clearly stated that they aim to increase dividends every year. Plus it’s more than covered by earnings so doubt very much that there will be a cut. As for your “placing”; comment and “pump and dump”, hilarious IMO. This isn’t an AIM stock. Their free cash flow increased 18% to $2.6bn, they are within their debt ratio target and will be reducing. You mentioned buybacks which I do tend to agree that BB’s shouldn’t be funded by debt but show me a FTSE100 company that isn’t doing exactly the same to keep the US investors happy. Plus they’ve reduced the BB by over $700m and if as you imply they need additional funds (unbelievable thinking IMO) then they scale back / cease their BB programme (2024 $987m). Plus they can easily issue another bond."
That's called telling yourself what you want to hear. The share price doesn't agree and I sniff trouble which is why I'm out for now. |
A lot can change in coming months after worldly festive seasons |

Corporate Activity! Diageo hardly fall into the category of a Pump 'n Dump" share."
Ah corporate activity, like buying shares back by the truckload at over £40 using borrowed money?
Your naivety is astonishing. Be very careful here because the DGE that we all used to buy and put away for ever is no more.
I reckon a dividend cut and possible a placing could be likely.
My opinion.
Thanks

Pump (excuse the pun) last week and now it's the dump. |
Bad management decisions.
I read recently (and posted about it) that a device that first takes your image and then 'prints' it on the top of your Guinness pint is ONLY installed at the brewery outlet in Dublin.
THAT is the kind of gizmo that Americans just love. Roll one out in a selected bar in any major east coast city and it will be a big, big draw. (pun intended).
But, they aren't.
Was a day when Guinness adverts were feted for their effect. |
Shortage of Guinness? Ffs, how have they allowed that to happen? |
Today DGE broke thru its 200DMA the 1st time since Apr 2023 |

Beware the pump and dump. |
Had one of those about six weeks ago when out with friends. Guinness Zero served that way - I was quite impressed with the outcome. |
