So these ups and downs are just par the the course as it were ?

It's just tracking the DJ graph.

1980chris 'going to sell at 32p'
IMO lucky you didn't.

[1980chris] 07/4/2020 15:17

Silly question and probably very obvious but why is the share dropping back over the last 40 mins or so ? Is this today with USA sorry I'm new to this and this share I was going to sell at 32p ? Any thoughts ?

[ladeside] 07/4/2020 15:14

k38, I only booked them yesterday. Easyjet and Riu.

[squire007] 07/4/2020 15:06

Any news on dividend?

[k38] 07/4/2020 14:59

that was before or the start of the crisis.. happy to take your money, but..

i hope i will proven wrong but think how many of them will survive and hotels too, all are in debt.

[ladeside] 07/4/2020 14:51

k38, I can't see this at all, in fact I'd think the opposite could be True.

Funnily enough I just purchased return flights from Glasgow to Malaga for December and the total price was £68 including my preferred seats. My Hotel (which I use regularly) was also a great price with free cancellation, so here's hoping it goes ahead.

Covid 19 ::: The final throw (in desperation) by the anti-Brexit Fear mongers!


Well it COULD be . . . . . ?

No sympathy for airlines.. they use every opportunity to screw the travelers... and they will do so after virus period.
I expect their prices will double and in some cases three times as much from we use to pay.
Hotels will do the same...


Holidays are over for most people

Stop it Pierre, you'll only confuse them.

[pierre oreilly] 07/4/2020 14:38

Point 1 - agreed
Point 2 - disagree, see my post above
Point 3 - incomprehensible
point 4 - hope so.

What we don't want to see is an Irrational behavior on the way up. Not too many or big gaps.

[smartypants] 07/4/2020 14:31

Sorry every body...what an oaf I am
All and every model is wrong..inaccurate and incomplete
Every thing the minidi and peaiary post is true accurate and a simple fact
75p by Christmas!

[pierre oreilly] 07/4/2020 14:28

Rofl minny, you have no idea what type of model we are talking about at all!

[minerve 2] 07/4/2020 14:25

They already have an accurate model from China, but of course that model depends on strong leadership and a moral code of temporarily putting lives before economics in order to achieve it.

[k38] 07/4/2020 14:24

Well, I was expecting 32p by Wednesday but it's seems to me now we will see 34p sometime this week. Good signs so far the Lloyds curve line is balancing now at the bottom and soon we will have an upward line to 38p

[pierre oreilly] 07/4/2020 14:19

Smarty, modelling software for a new virus with limited data will be 'ill behaved'. That is, they are over dependent on the assumptions, with small changes in assumptions leading to large changes in predicted results. Maybe the models are better than nothing (most are simply a moderated gaussian curve, with parameters guessed at by the researchers (educated guesses), they aren't accurate, and if you read the research paper, if there is one, the accuracy would be discussed. In a year's time, with accurate data to go on, the models will be very accurate imv, and very useful and trustworthy for future covid outbreaks.

Hey Mini, what news of NHS Porche 911 racers on your lane, are they wearing masks to prevent social spread of covid or disguise for shirking their duty?

Dodgy bird with zero credibility Sturgeon - "We are all willing you on Boris"

Ah, but she didn't say what she was willing him to, did she.

"I'm going to wish him well, I am, I'm sure that I am; so here goes, ahem, mmmm, er, ah, nay, fuggit - "we are all willing you on, Boris"."

Who's model smarty?

"The researchers also forecast the UK would hit its peak of infections around April 17, while Germans can expect the highest number of deaths on April 19."

Infections or deaths? Not the same thing.

I don't understand how they can model peak infection on April 17th, I'm assuming they mean deaths otherwise how can peak infection occur during lockdown where families have already been living with each other for two weeks.
