Monty...what are you trying to achieve by posting constant negative messages this morning ?

Don't you think people have enough to worry about at the moment .
Unless I am mistaken, you don't hold any IAG shares anyway ...do you ?

Oh, and you think it is going to be nationalised, so what point is there in posting about a company that you will not be able to invest in......according to you.

The article appears to be mostly about Australia.

Oh Monty....... is this really the time to focus on the doom and gloom scenario....is it helpful ?

How can workers pay rent or mortgage.

Virgin Atlantic asks staff to take eight weeks of unpaid leave.

ham.....indeed.

I’m sure they will give out low or zero interest loans to the companies that have clear future survival like IAG group. Smaller companies could go to the wall if continued business not viable. I think there’s very very low chance IAG will be nationalised. WW the banks are working to give the liquidity they need to continue reduced operations. Of course time can be another killer but let’s hope by early May we can see the peak is over

I'll be nationalised... comrade.

[m1k3y1] 16/3/2020 13:38

Maybe they will nationalise everything, everywhere !!!

Oh hang on ...isn't there a name for that.

[m1k3y1] 16/3/2020 13:36

Monty....so let me understand ...you say the Spanish Gov will nationalise and saltaire says the UK Gov will nationalise LOLOL too funny.

Even with 9.3B liquidity LOL

[hamhamham1] 16/3/2020 13:33

I think they.made on Lloyds and lost on RBS but were hsppy just to be out.

[hamhamham1] 16/3/2020 13:32

Dow opened and hit 7% drop and froze for 15mins straight away, another option at 13-14% I think, then if it hits 20% drop the Dow closes for the day.

[toon1966] 16/3/2020 13:32

If I remember correctly the UK Gov made no killing out Lloyd’s and RBS and certainly not the now defunct Northern Rock...

[montyhedge] 16/3/2020 13:32

Owned by the Spanish, will they bail them out, doubt it, they will probably nationalise.

[montyhedge] 16/3/2020 13:30

Market cap just over 5 billion, still expensive in my opinion.

[saltaire111] 16/3/2020 13:26

I guess ultimately, as the national flag carrier, this will end up being nationalised at some point. Shareholders will be wiped-out and, in a Northern Rock style act of theft, the government will pick it up in the cheap and float it back into private hands in 24 months’ time - making an absolute killing in the process.

I can see it coming. All the ingredients are there.

Salty.

Well to be fair, sometimes these boards whip up a frenzy of investing. One way bet, etc.

[dround87] 16/3/2020 13:15

Strong hands take from weak hands ham.

[hamhamham1] 16/3/2020 13:10

Yep Watford. Hope in the long term you get it back, I will spread my investments across various companies in various sectors at some point but, for me, I cannot see any light at the end of the tunnel. Maybe a recession and then a big pump of gov monies will happen and complete the cycle? But who knows, I have learnt to never be over committed to one share or sector to my own pain in the past.

[smartie6] 16/3/2020 13:09

Over 2months parked will start to see long term damage. Would I fly in a plane that has been parked for over 2months. No way.

It’s not like flight of the Phoenix lol.

[m1k3y1] 16/3/2020 13:04

Thank you Watford. same to you

[watfordhornet] 16/3/2020 13:03

That's me out - can only take so much. Lost a years salary on this stock.Will sit on sidelines and get ready to come back in hopefully lower which will justify this decision.Good luck all

[m1k3y1] 16/3/2020 13:02

Monty.....who cares LOL
