Will they close blue, that would be positive. Funds normally sell the last hour of trade. See if these boys cleared out yet.

[brain smiley] 05/3/2019 14:04

Another reason for the fall.

One of America’s top-rated airlines is set to announce transatlantic flights with “better service and lower fares than anyone”.
jetBlue is likely to fly London-New York and Boston using narrow-bodied Airbus A321LR aircraft.

How might BA, Virgin etc react?

Dividend July 51.5c confirm, November should be 15.5c. So 67c for the year. Yield not bad even after Spanish tax.If we finish blue today, I would say they are out. Interesting to see at close.

45m has to be sold, some funds must have bought them. They been scalped the force sellers.

[montyhedge] 05/3/2019 09:01

The day we bounce, that's the day MSCI trackers have finished that's keeping a lid on the shareprice.

[montyhedge] 05/3/2019 08:37

IAG different forced sellers due to MSCI tracker funds.

[gerrym two] 05/3/2019 08:33

Ahstead similar this morning! Great results again ! And share price back ?

[montyhedge] 05/3/2019 08:15

Two month low on record operating profit, massive dividend.51.5c July and should be 15.5p November. IAG should have been 675p not 574p. But hey tsunami of negative news hit, 45m force sellers should finish tomorrow or Thursday.

Actually Monty, there are rivals who actually reward their employees better than BA or IAG.
While we are at it, why doesn't IAG tackle the vastly overpaid and underworked Pilot community. Now there is an area where huge cost savings can and should be made.

[montyhedge] 04/3/2019 22:32

They could go to a rival and earn less, with no perk 10% of the cost of a flight, even in first class or business class.

[m1k3y1] 04/3/2019 22:11

Apple , I agree the employee bonus scheme is outdated now. It is right to reward shareholders but I also agree in rewarding employees as well.

I don't know why BA stopped the employee sharesave scheme, it was very good and encourages employees to invest in the company they work for.

[applepieinthesky] 04/3/2019 22:03

Think you'll find your friends are not the ones getting the minimum probably part of theTory wet lettuce brigade what.

IAG reported an operating profit of £2.8 billion and more than £1.5 billion in free cash last year. It expects spending on one-off projects this year to rise to as much as £2.3 billion.

[applepieinthesky] 04/3/2019 21:28

Unrest on its way IAG BA worker getting a minimum of £600 before tax etc compared to KLM a month and a half of the basic salary. IAG gives it's shareholders £700m that equates to giving each employee £11,000 staff morale takes a massive nosedive Alex Cruz and Willie Walsh have lined the pockets of greed once again

[m1k3y1] 04/3/2019 21:02

with luck Monty. ty

[montyhedge] 04/3/2019 20:55

Some good news, one major research group estimates about 45m holding shares in MSCI tracker funds. That's less than many thought. Volume around 11m a day, say fund sell 5m a day, nine days from date of announcement. Nearly finished say Thursday.

They were 663p 7 trading days ago then MSCI announcement, now 574p I would say roughly 16% fall.

[m1k3y1] 04/3/2019 18:02

have to agree chief. have done very well with this share over the years. No reason to think anything will change.

[chiefbrody] 04/3/2019 17:44

And forced sellers i should add.

[chiefbrody] 04/3/2019 17:40

16% down (not checked montys figures lol) in 7 days is irrational.Traders rule the market though so just gotta accept it and accept these gifts when they come.History tells us that when IAG moves (up or down) it moves fast!
