You should have been buying not selling a couple of days ago ;-)

airlines heading back down to test years lows, too much capacity both short and long haul, took a quick ten per cent profit on these over three weeks, back in once sub 10.50

solar powered batteries of course!

Where do you plug them in though ? Or will there be mid-air 're-fuelling' ?

There are obviously many influences on all companies' share prices, but none quite so disruptive or pervasive as the sheer unpredictability and fear of the imminent unknown.

Scare-mongering or not, there was some real trepidation felt by some, not to mention millions spent by many, in just such an instance. Y2K. And yet tech shares continued to defy gravity for another two months or so before reality hit..

No-one said the Stock Market was logical. :0)

IAG superb results, helping all airline stocks.

I think we'd get on better as a country if everyone went back to school and re-learnt their logic and venn diagrams.

Unfortunately, lots of events are interdependent, which gives a great opportunity for politicians and the general public to relate some of them as cause and effect, when in fact they are just interdependent - that's all.

Cheetahs have legs. Dogs have legs. Cheetahs run very fast. Therefore dogs can too. Whatever.

Onwards and upwards. Nice.

I've been reading Brexit-related diatribes for the past two years. I was more interested in the effect on EZJ, and when the bounce may come. :0)

Absolute twaddle - how can you mention education in the same article as you write "Great pity we never joined the euro..."
Speak to the Greeks about that and whilst at it take a look at unemployment rates in all the club med countries.

[porsche1945] 24/10/2018 11:59

tyg...
in reply to your Q. Why has the eu left us broke?? Managed that without their help. You have been reading the Mail too much. The UZ has productivity 20 pc lower than France, and they work less hours! The UK exports more to Rep of Ire than China (pathetic) while the Germans export vast quantities...how is any of that the fault of the EU, all that is down to the uk, as is a poor education system, second highest property purchase taxes in the world, a soso health system riddled with waste....that isnt the fault of the EU, thats just layers of cxxp expensive uk management and poor politics and poor quality uneducated workers, just like Osborne’ 8 years of stupid austerity that achieved nothing other than choking off growth and causing the divide that led to the “ protest “ vote that was brexit. Alot of that vote was based on class and age, the brexit pensioners...I get it. Being smart is about being pragmatic, making best of situations...ie being in a good euro massive trading block but still working for something better. What we have is an impoverishing self harming mess where one half of population has been allowed to tank everyone else, insane. Great pity we never joined the euro...sterling a disaster and so weak now sucking in inflation so rates will rise to stop that, not to contain growth which is non existsnt, really sick economy and i think the potential to get much worse and go on a long time... in short, stop looking gor a scapegoat, uk managed to be a basket case without any help from EU. The money we pay in, we get half back and the rest is to maintain the structure that allows frictionless trade, your gonna always pay something, see Trumps tartifs.

SP here seems wholly dependent on Brexit. As no-one seems to want to usurp the incompetent May and perhaps become known as the PM who took Britain out on a "no deal", then it seems more likely that the awful Chequers deal will prevail. And hence EZJ should rise in due course. But who would bet on it? :0)

[essentialinvestor] 23/10/2018 12:02

Monty, RYA is holding up very nicely atm.
Another warning somewhere down the line would not surprise me though.

[yump] 23/10/2018 10:22

There haven't been any wars within the EU since we've been in it, but that doesn't mean the EU has anything to do with it.

That is just as stupid as any sort of argument that the EU is good for the UK, as the debt and austerity is any sort of argument that it is bad for the UK.

If you just hate the EU/foreigners/bureaucrats why not just say so, rather than conjure up bogus rationalisations.

Although I suppose its not really that long ago that a wart made you a witch and for some people evolution doesn't seem to have totally removed that way of thinking.

[montyhedge] 23/10/2018 06:31

Yes not a pleasant article in the Daily Mail today on Ryanair.

[woodhawk] 22/10/2018 12:15

I favour IGG too, Fizzy - have a larger investment there.

[fizzypop] 22/10/2018 10:34

Woody - it looks like your maiden purchase was well timed. Keeping a close eye on IGGy which I favour.

[tygarreg] 22/10/2018 08:22

This is not party politics. Bigger picture than that. Whatever party at westminster they are puppets to EU both fiscally and judicially. Nobody can escape from this new form of communism which dictates everything. Any sovereign wealth we might of had has been sold off. No crown jewels left to sell and 1.7trillion in debt hence austerity and public services and investment in infrastructure on their knees. But still we borrow more debt to send money to EU. How poor do we have to get before we become a benefactor of EU? We are getting offered at every angle.

[tlobs2] 22/10/2018 08:06

Nice to see Ryanair shooting themselves in the foot again ......

[yump] 22/10/2018 07:58

Ah, the old 'them and us' at work. Perhaps in a few hundred years we'll be a bit more civilised.

[tygarreg] 22/10/2018 00:29

It may just be a coincidence of course but after 40 years in the EU we are a bankrupt country with £1.7 trillion debt and rising. The first 50billion of our taxes each year service that debt. The next 20b goes to EU which is about £350m per week ie bus banner! But they do send us half of that back in farm payments and project funding. Very generous of them. The other 10b goes to prop up other EU countries like Poland etc. Who Will prop these countries up when we have gone? Fact is EU is bankrupt with us, Spain, Greece, portugal. We have to escape!

[tygarreg] 22/10/2018 00:17

Not at all. I am talking about being in the EU!

[yump] 21/10/2018 17:38

Considering we can't conduct the experiment where the opposite parties were in power during the recession, austerity and Brexit, people seem very certain about which party caused what.

Unfortunately, being scientific about it nowadays isn't at all credible.

Might as well just vote for people because we like the cut of their jib, as most other two sided proper reasoning seems to have disappeared.
