It's a shame you lose 19% on the Spanish withholding tax.

Personally think a raised dividend to yield around 5% without any special maybe seen as a better course for future stability and growth...last years special cost nearly Euro 700 million and that retention would protect and enhance expectations for the future. I could be wrong but expect the new CEO with all his experience to take up the reigns from Walsh who has done an excellent job...let's wish them well.

Must admit amazed holding above 600p, perhaps the market expecting special div again with figures.Think they will be disappointed this year. It will be the normal dividend minus the spanish 19% withholding tax.

I think that with other carriers struggling and some failing, IAG will be well placed to pick up the pieces. In addition they will benefit from the synergy savings and profits due from the integration of Air Europa this year.

Extreme bad weather and China virus issue must be having an adverse effect on BA/IAG limiting traffic/load factors over last few weeks, and going forward. Subdued oil prices and reasonably firm pound may be helping to mitigate costs, and Y/E results should have been OK. However, IAG may wish to take some hits on the data fine last year, and the effect of the pilots strike is likely to have had a marginal negative cost, but all this maybe in the current share price

Anyways, spectacular performance against a fairly dreadful market.

No chance, imo.I'd like to think that shes on the same page with Boris.Only wish we didn't have such a huge snowflake press in this country.About time we got tough on crime. BJ knows it and so does PP.The Human rights brigade would be up in arms though if they really went for it.

spacedust13 Feb '20 - 10:46 - 12938 of 12950 What a call yesterday. The markets will severely tank for the foreseeable future. Especially big comoanies. Banks miners and airlines to clear the brunt of it. Going immensely short on IAG. Another one getting toasted, this is a shorters graveyard pre results https://www.investegate.co.uk/intl-con-airline-grp--iag-/rns/removal-of-the-limit-on-non-eu-shareholding/202001170733471395A/

[wilc42] 14/2/2020 09:51

I agreed with the tanking estimate. Given the surprise reverse this morning, especially on the back of increase virus numbers yesterday. . Unless this monster spreads to a global issue, we may have it burnt into our numbers already.

Looking very good...700p still a possibility!

Patel needs to go on a diet, she is spending too much time on her butt, seems to have piled on the pounds or too many Ruby’s! Looks colossal in many shots!

[m1k3y1] 13/2/2020 13:26

vanadiumx......because the fundamentals of IAG are very good, that's why. Other operators such as Cathay will take a big hit.

Mobile World Conference in Barcelona cancelled yesterday. That's 100,000 travellers not going on aeroplanes, staying in hotels, eating in restaurants. So a precedent has been set for global conference gatherings and sporting events are following. China Grand Prix, ATP matches, golf events in China, World Camp Asia cancelled. Question marks over the Tokyo Olympics. Cruises being cancelled. Seat bookings surely going to take a hit. Not sure how IAG is defying gravity here.

Prito Patel will be next

Johnson is running the country like the big, clumsy oaf he is, taking a leaf from Trumps book, one step out of line on doctrine and you’re fired! Personally I can see him making a foul-up soon, he is clumsy, irreverent and a loose cannon. Won’t be long before he slips up in a massive pile of dog poo!

[spacedust] 13/2/2020 12:09

Sajid javid resigns in shocking move. End of boring Johnson coming
