That's a lot of share options. Let's hope the exercise conditions are such that we all make money if exercised.

[fenners66] 30/10/2023 16:06

Why didn't they add that its about 0.4% of current issued shares - as per advfn if they have that correct ?

Oh because it does not look good...

That announcement would appear to be market sensitive. I think it should perhaps have been made before London opening. Wdik?

Being a global fund manager, it is reasonable that this ebbs and flows with the DOW.

Well done skinny :-)

scruff - geo politics, brexit chat etc, inevitably leads to people slagging each other off - witness some posts on this thread!

So with all due respect, please keep to M&G and related news - or, as I said - perhaps you /someone could start a "Geo Politics - discuss" thread?

[scruff1] 30/10/2023 07:10

Fair enough Skinny but I would have thought that geo politics has as much influence currently on the British stock market as just about anything else and much in between RNSable events is opinions and conjections

No news is good news? No?

[superiorshares] 29/10/2023 10:40

Rongestrich

Nah

[superiorshares] 29/10/2023 10:35

Well done Skinny:-)

[rongetsrich] 29/10/2023 08:25

Ok.
There’s no news coming from MNG until next year, world events are interesting. What say we entertain ourselves with a fantasy portfolio that is robust to roll with the punches?
Obviously MNG features, it’s a great payer but may lose income when the belts get tightened next year. The elephant in the room being fixed rate mortgage rates ending for many.
Gilts/ bonds/ utilities?
You can pay for someone to do this for you, you can somehow copy a major player, but there must be decades worth of experience on here to chat about their methods, proven and not?

[jubberjim] 29/10/2023 08:20

Skinny just read your request. Aologies but had to be said.

Going back a few months you were talking chart pivots at or around 185/188 which in turn prompted my sell at 202 since when I haven t been back but have continued to monitor especially in light of the recent falls in Phnx and others share prices

Would be interested to know your thoughts
Would be useful for a long time bear who is now struggling to swim underwater.

If I am being honest

I feel terrible and am totally abhorred by the slaughter by both sides in this latest flare up in the middle east

But Israel should acknowledge how they have undermined the civilized nations in the world of trying their level best to impose sanctions on Putin and his obligarch henchmen in their war on Ukraine .They have been indirectly aiding and abetting the obligarchs and thus Putin by granting those self same despots Israeli citizenship.

I feel tremendous sorrow for both the Jewish and Palestinian people being slaughtered as we speak but for the Israeli Government and Hamas I feel nothing but contempt.

The Israelis have a right to exist but so do the Palestinians

Actions have consequences

They the Israelis could have done the right thing way back they chose not to and Jewish Palestinian and the Ukrainian people are suffering the consequences.

As to China and its Taiwanese ambitions

Stop buying Chinese goods


But I fear we in the west have left it too late.

Sit tight and hold on to your cash (Bit late for me)

Good luck

Well said, Skinny.

[skinny] 29/10/2023 07:06

As stated :- Please keep to M&G - if you want to slag people off, discuss the middle east or any other conflict, use another thread or better still - start your own.

rongetsrich - yet again - apologies for not monitoring the thread when I have better things to do at the Weekend!!

BTW - That's your last pop at me on this thread.

[scruff1] 28/10/2023 21:35

To be honest it wouldnt surprise me if Xi and Putin and others have discussed how the west would deal with Russia/Ukraine/FSU states/Nato on one front, Palestine/Israel/Iran/Gulf States/US W Europe on another and China/Taiwan/US W Europe on yet another. The economies of all of them would be in shreds for at least the rest of my lifetime. Western Europe is already skint and dependent on windmills and its citizens can barely afford to keep warm, cook and travel. On top of which a massive fifth column has been welcomed aboard and in situ ready for mischief. Planning ahead is no longer really our thing

[superiorshares] 28/10/2023 21:33

The half wits will be the ones who have got it wrong but refuse to admit it .

SS

[superiorshares] 28/10/2023 21:32

Filter away .
But Investors who are that interested should note all of my interests on particular companies are always correct or very close to it .

[rongetsrich] 28/10/2023 21:29

It’s like we have our very own bird brain. Superior muppet maybe.
Can we all confirm this halfwit is filtered!

[superiorshares] 28/10/2023 21:14

Just keep your eye on Chinese military action .
If there is any sign of a timely invasion of Taiwan ?
You will be looking at FTSE 3000 in short order !
